    The Origin of the Spiral

    About the long songs... I haven't come across one longer than "The Introduction To the Faint Remembrance of a Dead and Dying Dream" or "Dont Forget To Set The House On Fire Before You Crawl Into Bed [House Fire]" both by The Junior Varsity. Well, I have a few songs names that are longer, only because they have multiple names for a song that's not split into parts ( i.e. The Mars Volta or Godspeed You! Black Emperor)

    now it's

    Peter Cottontail and the Demise of the Carrot Tree
    The Junior Varsity
    The Great Comprimise

    this synth is almost addicting...

    Yes, and their new single, "My Escape," goes like this:

    I gotta get outta here
    Stuck inside this rut that I fell
    Into by mistake
    I gotta get outta here
    And I'm begging you
    I'm begging you
    I'm begging you
    To be my escape


    Hmm, Jesus-Core, right? Yes. But the video is about a girl. Naturally. That's my point.

    Also, all their cool songs are about the 80's, Sadie Hawkins, Cell Phones, Mood Rings, etc.
