as ive said before, blonde redhead's 1997 album *fake can just be as good* is one of those special albums that deserve secret listening sessions. to only prove my point further, here's a stellar live performance that has been non-stop inside my headphones. theres these lil boosts of magical energy that blonde redhead send through my veins, especially inbetween time signatures in a song like bipolar. [for example, 2:13 - 2:50] my suggestion to you is get in a car, go for a nice scenic fall road trip and let the music fuel you to anywhere, usa. [...]
The Things That Make My Heart Beat Faster, Pushing Down My Anger So As To Avoid Hurting The Ones I Love Edition It's an utterly true and completely shitty fact about me that sometimes it's the small words spoken to me in what is obvious encouraging kindness which throws me into an internal rage, the likes [...]
released in 1997, blonde redhead 's album *fake can be just as good* is one of my secrets. raw aggression, loud distortion, chaotic energy and jangled melodies tightening their grip so hard that they completely take over. new listeners of the band's music have been warned to stay away from this obscure album but in my own opinion, i feel that this is the strongest, most powerful root of their past that must completely be given into. listen:: pier paolo , [...]

If anyone missed this game, shame on you. (First of all, let me tell you that I was rooting for Italy) This was seriously the best matchup in a soccer game that I have seen for a long time. Marking the end of French Captain Zinedine Zidane's career, the entire team tried to help him finish out on top.
