Dave and I came up with this creative public shaming today at lunch. Full credit to Dave for the actual work.
This is what happens when you don’t pay your hosting bill for several months. I’m sick of your excuses.

Just got this snippet as part of an Amazon recommendations email for Anberlin’s Cities:
Unlike most emo bands that merely offer a laundry list of personal hardships over the sound of loud guitars, the members of Anberlin know that they can seek salvation in a higher power, so the songs on Cities aren’t so much about self-pity as self-preservation. It’s a refreshing twist on the formula, especially when paired with the industrial-strength hooks the spiritual Florida band knocks out on tracks like “Dismantle. Repair.” and “Godspeed.” On the latter, the group’s frontman Stephen Christian lashes out against the bad habits of his secular counterparts: “Tell them who you were, who you really were/Kill yourself slowly over time, fashion statement suicide.” –Aidin Vaziri
