our earthly pleasures distract us against our will

AUNT LUCY HAS A FABULOUS NEW ALBUM FOR YOU LOVELY PEOPLE

On a whim, because I love the three songs of theirs I have, I bought a Maximo Park album.

It is totally awesome so you all need to have it too.



Maximo Park's Our Earthly Pleasures

love is a lie, which means I've been lied to; love is a lie, which means I've been lying too

You know an album is gonna be good when you haven't even played it yet and are just reading through the lyric booklet and you say aloud, "oh man, that's fucking beautiful." I'm having trouble getting past the first five songs because they are just that good and as soon as "Karaoke Plays" finishes, I'm launching back to "Girls Who Play Guitars". "Parisian Skies" and "Pride Before a Fall" also stand out a lot.

Also, "Our Velocity" is now my Doctor/Fitz song. Or maybe "Books from Boxes". Oh god, this band.

-Lucy

ETA: oh and "A Fortnight's Time" is RIDICULOUSLY CUTE. It's just this guy asking a girl out on a date but he's shy and hasn't dated a lot and "when it comes to girls, I'm mostly hypothetical/if I list their names, it's purely alphabetical." HEEEE. ♥

I will reupload it for you but the CD is not on this computer so if I don't have it for you by tomorrow, bother me about it or I may forget. 'Cause you totally need this album, it's a really good one.
