Not really.
I haven't listened to Radiohead since 11th grade. I made this decision after I listened to one of their songs and then promptly failed my calculus test. Consequently, I made the totally logical association that Radiohead is evil (my test failure being totally unrelated to my complete ineptitude for all things math).Well dear reader(s?) I am listening to Radiohead, even as I write this. And I am finding I much prefer to keep my levels of angstiness to things The Cure and Sufjan can handle. Oh, but, and how, I've missed those forever-long Radiohead guitar solos!
Don't worry this is just a stage.
And now for much, much worthier art. I am currently reading Living by Fiction by Annie Dillard.
CONCLUSION: Annie. Dillard. is. BOMB.
If you haven't read anything by her, please do. Your life will change. Her syntax makes me weepy it's so beautiful.
And in order to end this blog post in a somewhat rhetorical manner I finish with the genius of Annie + a callback to Radiohead/guitars + a shout-out to art that makes life much easier to handle aesthetically.
"The mind is a blue guitar on which we improvise the song of the world." - Annie Dillard
