Object In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear.
Not to be a doom-sayer, but I have a doom song for you all, A Perfect Circle's new track, "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish."

If ever there were a literal anthem for the end of the world, this would be it. It has a certain.... finality to it. And of course there's the Hitchhiker's Guide references. Not to say that the world IS ending. But I'm also not saying it's NOT ending... we never really know. ;3
And there's that line, "Now Willy Wonka, Major Tom, Ali, and Leia have moved on." Thanks Maynard, punch a hole right through my poor nostalgic heart why don't ya. ;___;
The video HAS to be as ridiculous and over-the-top as it is, and yet it's still all very bleak and dark imagery superimposed on this "perfect" 1950s world.
I dunno, it's doomful and I like it. It speaks to me. I've been listening to APC for YEARS, and now I think.... I've finally found my favorite song of theirs. <3
So, uh... happy New Year?
