Have you ever picked up an instrument or played in a band??? Have you ever had an instance where you were playing with a drummer and a bassist for the first time in your life and realized this is the best fucking moment in my life up until now (epiphany type deal)? I doubt it. I suspect that is why you have written this article that's laden with ignorance. These guys don't sit down and plan how the record is going to sell. I know that for fact because I know them. Ben wrote the essence of most of the songs and then Rob did a lot of the guitar work on top with help from the drummer and bassist, I think it was an honest, artful project. I am using you as a vent because I am so sick of reading bullshit by bloggers that have no idea what the hell they're talking about. What do you think???
