How did I not hear about the Silver Jews until a few months ago!?

[ImTheVanillaGorilla]

who gets the metaphor! I just want to see how many people.

[superterrifichappy]

@ImTheVanillaGorilla  fuck the clouds how bout that?

[ChrisF116]

@ImTheVanillaGorilla I didn't get it the first couple of listens. Its about American society. Something about how the sheer amount of crap we have at our disposal masks us from the profound emptiness of a society built upon excessive consumption.

@ChrisF116

wrong.

[ChrisF116]

@fartfartdoublefart Wrong what?

[fartfartdoublefart]

@ChrisF116 Wrong analysis. I think you're paying too much attention to the video. It's a beautiful video though.

[ChrisF116]

@fartfartdoublefart well what is it about then?

[fartfartdoublefart]

@ChrisF116

oh, I don't know. Not that though.

"Pain works on a sliding scale".

This is the kind of line that means more than just the words. No more Silver Jews records to look forward to.

Wasting away again in Margarqatsiville.

this guy's a true poet. i like the lyrics and the music fits in well too. where'd this guy come from anyway?

[rmorte62]

he was a founding member of pavement but split with them amicably to go to school. He's been putting out fantastic albums since around 94 but never toured till recently, then, unfortunately, decided to break up the band. All Silver Jews albums are great to fantastic. American Water is a must have.

@rmorte62 berman wasn't a founding member in pavement. berman was never in pavement.
