Absolute fucking merde.

My mind files this shit with The National and Band of Horses.

Thanks for the encouragement Jimmy. The old man reckons I should give it a shot, which surprises me. In terms of financial support, my parents are retired and cant offer any (not that I want it) but there is literally nothing else I would rather do. Hopefully after another year of working/saving I'l...

Anyone here ever stopped, had an epiphany, and said to themselves "fuckit, I'm not working anymore, I'm going to just play some music til I fall into the void"??
