Music: Apocalypse Now And Then by Every Time I Die

Today's my last day of work, yay. I'll be very glad to not have to get up at 6 in the morning - it is time to catch up on some major sleep. Well, after move-in at least. I'm packing tonight, then moving in tomorrow. Next week is totally free, then classes start the following week.

The new Every Time I Die cd rocks. It leaked about two weeks ago and me and Ari gave it one quick listen and were both kind of skeptical. I decided to wait for the release to listen to it again, but she continued to listen to it and gave me a very bad impression of it and I started to become worried. Well it came out Tuesday and when I first put it in my car and cranked the volume up I was pleasantly surprised. It is different from Hot Damn!, but it's still good. I'm not one to defend bands if I don't actually like the new stuff - Funeral For A Friend, From Autumn To Ashes, etc. pussified themselves and the new 'directions' suck - but this is quality shit. It's less metalcore and more flatout rock. I do miss Keith's old vocals but he was tearing his throat up doing it so his new style was necessary - at least he can still scream and make it sound good, I can get over the fact that it sounds different.
