The Lawrence Arms will be touring with their own side-projects, The Falcon and Sundowner, in the "8th Annual Unbelievable Self-Indulgence Fest" for a punk rock explo... What. Yes, I know this isn't punknews.org.
What do you mean? Yes, it's Midwestern punk rock... but... they're all literary... and stuff.
You guys like that, right?
Ever read Bulgakov's Master and Margarita? So did they... they based an album on it!
LITERATURE!
I bet they can hang with Dostoevsky too. You consider yourself deeply spiritually troubled like Ivan Karamazov, right? You can probably find solace in their music!
See, you guys already have so much in common!
Look at how well this is going... you'll be in a circle pit before you know it.
What? Yes, there's a little bit of yelling... but so what?
No... no there are no synths... or unnecessarily complex... WHAT?
I mean. It's... No, they're not ironic...
What do you mean scene cred?
YOU CAN WEAR TIGHT JEANS AND ENJOY THE CRUNCHY GROOVES OF JUSTICE WHILE STILL LISTENING TO THEM.
COME ON.
THE LARRY ARMS ARE COOL! TOURING WITH YOUR OWN SIDE PROJECTS IS COOLER!
YES, I do agree that Dan Bejar is phenomenal at linking words together.
That's unrelated. WHEN DID I SAY THAT IF I LISTENED TO MIDWESTERN MUSIC I HATED PAVEMENT?
I DON'T EVEN GET HOW THOSE RELATE.
YES, I LOVE STEPHEN MALKMUS. I KNOW. HIS INDIFFERENCE ON STAGE IS FASCINATING.
I MEAN THAT'S WHAT THE LAWRENCE ARMS DO ,TOO. DESTROY THINGS. GET DRUNK.
THAT'S ROCK ‘N’ ROLL.
YES ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT IS A FUNNY SHOW.
I KNOW. DAVID LYNCH IS FASCINATING AND INTRICATE. I GET IT.
I DONT CARE THAT YOU SAW WILL OLDHAM BEFORE HE WAS BONNIE "PRINCE" BILLY AND THAT YOU UNIRONICALLY ENJOY MAINSTREAM RAP.
I LIKE EVERYONE'S EARLIER STUFF BETTER AS WELL... I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY HERE.
I CAN STILL LIKE A PUNK ROCK BAND
COME ON.
...stupid hipsters...
