Today's Quick Mention: Well, trivia didn't exactly go our way last
night, and we ended up in a somewhat respectable, but totally unwanted third
place. I don't know what the deal is, but we can't ever seem to catch
a break when finals roll around. We're like the Dan Marino of trivia.
Whatever.
Despite getting home completely sloshed and disappointed last night, I did
manage to find something worth smiling about, and it was some David Bazan.
The man, who many of you probably know from his work as Pedro The Lion, has
a new record coming up for Barsuk titled Curse Your Branches.
It will be good, so look for it on September 1. Enjoy.

Bazan - Bless This Mess:
Bazan's best quality is his songwriting (that warm,
endearing voice is pretty good too), so that tends to be all
that I focus on when I listen to anything he's ever done.
Here, it's no different, especially when he's throwing out
lyrical gems like "I have seen my own reflection/And it makes me want to be a better man/After
another drink." I mean, is that not the line of the
year? Listen and learn, my friends.
