and maybe we bend, or maybe it's fate

we're taking our time, until the pendulum breaks

don't have to give in, we don't have to hide

it's never too late for some innocence

Atlas Genius - End Of The Tunnel

If I had a nickel every time an indie band that was popular a decade ago dropped their first new album in almost a decade, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice. First Foster The People released a new album about a month ago, and that album was pretty solid, but I saw a week or two ago that Australian indie band Atlas Genius was gearing up to release their first album in nine years, entitled End Of The Tunnel. I know I reviewed their debut album way back when it came out in 2013, but I’d be lying if I remembered it, or anything about what I said.

I do remember, however, that they were an “indietronica” band, where they mixed indie rock with electronic and synth music, so that’s the only expectation I have here. I never listened to their follow-up, so I don’t know anything about it. What I do know, though, is that End Of The Tunnel is a pretty solid album, although I don’t find myself being super pumped to go back to it more than a few times. It’s worth hearing if you like indie-rock, alternative, or things of that nature, but you’re not missing much if you don’t. There are some things worth liking here, such as their sound being a bit updated all these years later, and there are some neat guitar solos here and there, but I’ll be lying if I said that this album was anything more than “pretty good.”

I can usually gauge how well an album works for me by two different things: how much I go back to it during each day, or how often I find myself thinking about it, because that means the album is good enough that I want to play it again, and that it’s an album that made a lasting impression, but this album kinda does that. I don’t know, I’ve listened to it a few times, but I don’t really think about it afterwards, or even at any time, really. It’s good while it’s on, and I have a good time, but I forget about it the second it’s over, which definitely isn’t a good thing. For being their first album in nine years, it’s a good return, but I never was a huge fan of this band to begin with, so it doesn’t do much to really get me that much more into them, although this is completely fine.

As my coverage from Day 1 and Day 2 of Beachlife Festival may have shown, despite some growing pains, the Redondo Beach festival was still a great event for music lovers. As Day 3 began, it seemed like this would continue to be the case. Starting the day was Australian alternative rock band of brothers Atlas Genius. Back in the states for the first time in over four years, the group is gearing…

sometimes i think about how sokka literally invented submarines and how aang is literally the avatar but when the both of them put their braincells together, they come up with ideas like writing a letter to katara from toph

look ive seen a lot of weird takes about the we didn’t start the fire cover because apparently (?) some people are mad (??) because ‘anyone can put together words that rhyme, they should have put the events in chronological order’ (????) and I’ve decided that look, it doesn’t matter if it’s chronological, because this is it. It’s events that matter to this generation, and it SHOULDNT sound exactly like billy joel’s version. they’re not going to be billy joel. NO ONE is going to be billy joel. the point of a cover is to make it your own and by making the events out of order it seems more frenzied and crazy, which, to be honest, the events it covers ARE. it IS crazy. and to end with ‘world trade, second plane’? that is INSANE. I got chills. that is a moment that the people who were alive during the event will remember FOREVER. it literally changed the entire course of history and started a spiral of events not only politically but musically as well, starting in an idea and ending in we’ll carry on. It makes perfect sense to end a song about the chaos of the modern and recent world on an event so defining in people’s- relatively recent- lives. and I saw this pointed out too (I believe by @thekintsugikid) and I wanted to mention it. fall out boy says, ‘we’re trying to fight it.’ In Billy’s version, he said ‘we tried to fight it.’ and look. we are trying. The world is going to shit. We’re all going to die someday, probably in some gruesome way. but we’re trying. we’re trying to fight it. we have hope, this younger generation. we won’t give up. we will survive. persistence, I think, is the biggest part of glory. and so, it just means something to me. it doesn’t have to be in chronological order. it doesn’t have to be perfect. the boys had fun, and that’s what matters, but I really think that the cover does reflect us overall

When Ilah died, Azulon carried Azula everywhere, simply carrying her around while carrying her to meetings and standing on his throne talking to his subjects.

It must be admitted that Azula learned a lot, speaking with poise, raising an eyebrow, and threatening idiots, it was undoubtedly a great success accompanying her grandfather.

Ozai and Iroh were surprised because suddenly their father was paying more attention to Azula than them, they wanted to complain but when the two saw him with his cold golden eyes and a raised eyebrow they immediately fell silent.
