I was just listening to To The Confusion of Our Enemies yesterday. Such a good album. I think it was way underrated.

REDS TOP AFTER 2-0 WIN AT REEBOK

Liverpool reclaimed top spot after goals from Dirk Kuyt and Steven Gerrard secured a 2-0 victory over Bolton at the Reebok.

Strikes either side of the break saw the Reds leapfrog Chelsea, who face West Brom in the Saturday tea-time fixture.

A quartet of missed chances from Gerrard, Robbie Keane and substitutes Fernando Torres and Lucas Leiva prevented a more convincing scoreline but Liverpool did more than enough to bounce back from their Carling Cup exit.

It was no surprise to see Benitez make nine changes from the side that lost 4-2 at White Hart Lane in midweek, Sami Hyypia and Daniel Agger the only survivors. Jamie Carragher was selected ahead of youngster Stephen Darby at right-back, while Torres had to settle for a place on the bench.

It was another Spaniard w

Is that you doing the interviews on that gay website? Please say no otherwise my whole universe has jsut been fucked. You speak with a high pitched faggy voice and a lisp in real life yes?

Dante3000 (rich) (November 15, 2008)

Haha. I actually think I might have missed you.

Yeah, tops until Chelsea puts about 13 past West Brom this afternoon.
I'm sorry, but the Blues are gonna win it this year. I fucking HATE Chelsea too, but I think I'm bang-on with my prediction.

Love that record. And my getting a free copy via soundscenerevolution makes me Completely Unbiased.

Nameless (November 15, 2008)

Agreed. I love that album so much.

PoliticsOfStarving (November 15, 2008)

Underrated? When I saw the Riverboat Gamblers story on the main page today, all I could think about was how much everyone used to love this band a few years ago.

And I found them generic and bland. It was a very annoying time.

Patron (November 15, 2008)

Great band.

way to release a single five months before your album comes out.

They're taking cues from the Watchmen trailer.

manincognito (November 15, 2008)

Yes, yes you should.

Their live show is supposed to be nuts.

MattRamone (November 15, 2008)

I saw them open for Strike Anywhere and Paint it Black and shit was BANANAS.

UNTJosh (November 15, 2008)

Ive heard rumors of legendary frat parties they would play right off campus. Something to Crow About broke right before I entered college so I had to miss out on that. Its a damn shame.

blaarg (November 15, 2008)

When I saw them in Providence, the singer climbed up and across the rafters, and hung upside down over the crowd, while singing.

Yeah, their live show is nuts.

avodrocyelir (November 15, 2008)

yeah i got to unt to and ive only seen them once. and it was in dallas. i always figure its going to be too big of a pain in the ass to get into rubber gloves to see them.

UNTJosh (November 15, 2008)

I dont even know where Rubber Gloves is. Thats how little of my time I spend in Denton. Isnt that on Fry St right across from the Lang building?

avodrocyelir (November 16, 2008)

nah its on the other side of town. its at bell and sycamore.

binaural111 (November 16, 2008)

tonyhoag (November 15, 2008)

I've only heard Confusion... which I love! This song is different. And this song is good.

anticoast (November 15, 2008)

This song is damn good. This is one band that turns their progression in a good direction from album to album.
