[no]
[actually it doesn't take any time at all to fall in love with The Books]
[it just happens instantaneously]
[right from the first chord strums]
[or the first words uttered by that Italian guy]
["tutto e santo! tutto e santo!"]
[and once it happens it never changes to stop]


Anathallo - Nonias Field (2008)

[look for more of their songs]

Le Loup - Planes Like Vultures (The Throne of the Third Heaven..., 2007)
[all too soon we’ve come to bloom]
[blown about in dusty rivers]
[and pointed skywards, scrape the heavens]
[should we end before we’re shriven?]
[and call the names that we’ve been given?]
[grown in cities long since abandoned]
[blown to pieces and thrown at random]
[this is what we see while standing]
[long before the thought of landing:]
[oh, this world was made for ending]
[oh, this world was made for ending]
[oh, this world was made for ending]
[oh, this world was made for ending]

[they're cool]
[they have a manifesto and all]
[something about being awesome, fearing nothing and damaging nobody]

[damn I'm not doing a good job promoting them, huh?]
[they're cool! really!]

songs!]
[...or maybe I was just switching channels between the Teletubbies and hardcore porn]
[I feel dizzy]
[switch switch switch switch]
[-to punk to jazz to indie to swing -]
[- to garage to screams to caramelized notes -]
[- to sheer noise to a whispered word to no more fucking breath.]
