if all of Alligator was as awesome as Secret Meeting, Karen, All the Wine and Mr. November it would be the easiest 5 ever, ever.



songs like Looking for Astronauts keep it at a 4.5 though for me

haha



dude it really is a small world



he's a really nice hipster kid that I was always just like "Wow, somebody who actually likes good music at the school"



then I somehow found his facebook and saw he had a sputnik



and then i was like omfgomfg



kid has gone through so many taste changes (last year he wore a Bring Me the Horizon shirt) it's not even funny

weird, I was in his gym class when he was a freshman and we were talking about the fact that he was listening to Milk Hotel and he said he was so into MCR



even weirder



One day I'm walking through the halls and I hear him calling GYBE "Mind-blowing", I didnt want to be late for class so I couldnt call him on it



I then find out on this site that you got him into the band



small world ftw

Astronauts isn't awful and it's better than Karen.

nah Karen rules, Astronauts annoys the hell out of me. the only song they've released out of their last 3 albums that I legitimately don't like
