They'd still be wrong.

I'm convinced that the narrator from The Dead Flag Blues is the bad guy from Iron Man.

This more than anything else anyone has said to me makes me actually want to see that movie.

I enjoy listen to them ever so often but its hard for me to enjoy a song thats more than 9 minutes . For me to really enjoy a song I need to the song really well and its really hard for me to if the songs are like 15 minutes. Ill listen them ever so often to see if i do start liking them.

I don't mind most of their songs being lengthy, but I've yet to make it through all of "Providence". Half an hour is too long for a song.

iTunes tells me I've listened to it 28 times. 14 hours listening to one song... wow

I'm willing t give them another chance I suppose, but if that truly is the best they have to offer, I'm not very hopeful.
If you find that album boring then don't bother trying any of their others.

Still, I think F#A# is better. Skinny Fists is great but I always thought they released it mainly to show Mogwai what was up.

I was wearing a shirt that said "Godspeed You! Black Emperor" and someone commanded me to turn around, so I did, and they were disappointed because they thought a picture of Obama would be on the back. Lol racism lol.

Just get the whole monologue all over you body...Short of that I like "I said 'kiss me you're beautiful, these are truly the last days'" better.
