two weeks pass...

I have been a fan for 9 years now and I fully grasp that it's not everyone's music.......but, you have to accept that apart from their last "commercial" albums, they had a great sound and a heralding darkness of prose that spoke to our inner personas. I don't know about him personally being a fuckhead?, although I did meet him backstage a couple of times, but he is intellegent and knowledgable guy....I have to give him that. I asked him some pretty deep questions and his answers blew me out of the room. Surely even a fuckhead can be humbled by getting off the drugs, starting over musically and having a child! Give him a break.....you never truly know anyone until you have walked a mile in their shoes and besides, I personally feel that he has tried hard as he could to stay true to his music and when he felt it was all going awry......he got out! You guys are harsh! Soften up some eh?

I'm trying to figure out if Google linked up permanently with ILX over the last couple of days.

Their darkness of prose heralded my inner persona? Somehow I never got that call.

eight years pass...

I was recommended their song "Psychopomp" and am really digging it. shame the singer's big-headed in every sense of the word.

I wrote upthread kind of nastily about this band but I actually still put on Edges Of Twilight sometimes

There is a kind of hipster bar in Toronto and in 2008 or thereabouts, my friend Duncan was hosting this recurring night there. Management went to Duncan as he was onstage with the band and told him that Jeff Martin was there and wanted to get onstage and play a song. Duncan iirc was somewhat hesitant but decided to just go for it. Jeff Martin came onstage and began playing “Jammin’”. And a certain point Duncan repressed his giggling enough to lean over to a live mic and say “listen to what the wise man is saying”
