2001-06-13 | A TASTE FOR BITTERS

dear diary. you know that band Chokebore i'm always talking about? yeah. they started in hawaii but they're in california now. yes they are THAT good. i don't know. i just do. well, you ever wonder if you really like something as much as you think, or if you just like it because you haven't found what you really like? well this is one of the few bands i know i love that much and there is no doubt about it. i think they are my favorite band. i also like Modest Mouse, Nirvana, Sublime, Jeff Buckley, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, the Smiths, Janes Addiction, Kool Keith, Tantra Monsters, and others but chokebore sticks out like a sore thumb. if sore thumbs felt good. i've been sending quotes to my girlfriend stephanie so i figured i'd put a couple songs from chokebore on my diary. just to let you know i didn't forget about you. so heres some of their lyrics.

"COMEBACK THURSDAY"

comeback thursday...thursday/want to see a storm?.. and it must sting living lean like an olive, and it must sting when you don't trust your own sight, and you must think, theres no one else as alone as you are, and you must know, for once in your life you're right...and i will be relentless...come back thursday..want to see a storm?

"BAD THINGS"

motionless, slow and melted, tilted downward like a dying bird...is anybody here? Her nose was bleeding red like gunpowder. i have seen the wind blow through her. the people in here are sick and cold. motionless, wearing strange wings doing bad things, dripping wet like glass..are you hearing this? but if i wait and come inside you, will you let me back tomorrow..is anybody home at all?
