Not that I don't like the new style, but I liked their old style a LOT better... Frogstomp was such a good CD... what happened? These guys just pulled a complete 180...

diversifying can be a dangerous thing. :) love the song - has helped me through difficult times - don't bother with anything at all, you gotta get out there an do it yourself.

"Violent, big and violent Like a thing that's big, big And violent" That has to be my favourite lyric ever! It's so simple and stupid, it's actually deep. And yeah, drgnfx...after he says the big and violent stuff, he says "a world that's big and violent" on the cd. :)

In the beginning i believe daniel is sending the message that no matter what you do you can't always depend on certain others/things to get by in life. There are things that you can't get around, no back doors. Later i think he's just saying taht when things aren't so bad in life just go for it and do what makes you happy and dont' hold back. "half full galsses lost in empty houses" ...even postive mindset people are lost. something like that. whats big and violent? the world perhaps? help me out guys..
