Sometimes I can be a real twat. Well actually most of the time I'm a twat. Okay, I'm a twat all the time. And I love twat. But that's besides the point. I have such a vast collection of musics I always manage to forget bands or songs that I really, really enjoy and end up forgetting to post them up, so when I do it appears I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Let me assure you my friends and weird internet strangers alike, there is no bandwagon jumping taking place.
I have had the 'Marianas Trench' album 'Masterpiece Theatre' since day one even though I prefer their first album. Part of the allure is the fact they are a Canadian band and I am such a homer. The other part is they make good, catchy music. At times it is a bit poppish, bubble gummish, but I can't go on hating mainstream forever. I mean really, is it fair to hate something for being over-publicized? Maybe. It does get tedious though hearing their music at least 6 times a day on the radio. I mean I love pizza, but I wouldn't eat it everyday.
According to Wikipedia, 'Marianas Trench' is the "Best Canadian band ever." And "Josh Ramsay is THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE." Interesting. Although I'm not sure I agree with John Ramsey being the sexiest man alive. Come to think of it I don't remember him cracking any of the '100 Sexiest Men' lists. Maybe I just missed the one for "Canadian pop-rockers with whiny, high pitched voices who sound like they had their testicles removed". Still like the band though.
Bet you didn't know they were named after 'The Mariana Trench', the deepest known part of the world's oceans, and the lowest elevation of the surface of the Earth's crust! Oh, you did know that? Well fuck you, you smug sons of bitches.
