Estey--
props for pushing AMC's "mercury"... A BRILLIANT record... "gratitude walks" is one of the most beautiful songs of melancholy ever written... "what godzilla said to god when his name wasn't found in the book of life" is right up there...
Eitzel is always teetering on the brink of writing one of the greatest records of all times... and "mercury" came so frickin' close i'll always listen to whatever he writes next... waiting, hoping!!! (his solo album "candy ass" comes nearly as close too... it's that sort of yearning that reflects right back at you in his music... he's trying to write his best song ever each time out, and i listen to each offering cheering him on in the quest... the fraility is breathtaking...)
i agree with almost every word about cohen, as well, but it was the first lines about AMC that really got my goosebumps going... (original AMC drummer Tim Mooney mixed our record coming out in july, by the way)
