The world isn’t against you, my dear: it just doesn’t care.1
Of the several bands I’ve fallen for lately, Modern Life Is War might be the most irresistable — the one that keeps bubbling up from some unconscious impression made in moments I’ve spent humming riffs and thinking of snippets of lyrics I don’t fully know. Until reading the lyrics to the album this morning, I just enjoyed the attitude they showed while playing on Saturday night in Long Island and their music. Now that I’ve read lines like the one above, I’m in love.
