Did some music downloading last night and ended up with two of Fall Out Boy’s and Panic At the Disco’s Fueled by Ramen labelmates: Paramore and The Academy Is…
Thanks for the Paramore recs, Janie and Cori, ’cause I absolutely love them. The “Listeners Also Bought” feature at iTunes suggested The Academy Is… and I love them, too.
Speaking of Panic, while I like their new CD, I totally miss the fun quirkiness of their debut — and I miss the exclamation point, as well. “The Only Difference Between Martyrdom and Suicide is Press Coverage” might be the best title for a song ever, and it’s definitely one of my favorite songs.
I’ve always liked Fall Out Boy and I still think “I’m just a notch in your bed post, but you’re just a line in a song,” from “Sugar, We’re Going Down” is such a great line.
I love this whole indie rock/alt rock/power pop/pop punk genre.
