Oyster.

Listened to this Jawbreaker song three times today on my Ipod.

Nobody beats Blake Schwarzenbach for great lyrics.

A couple of humdingers from Oyster include:

"I can't sleep to save my life.
The day is done but I don't think I got it right."

And...

"I dot my t's and cross my i's.
Pretend that I can write.
I haven't got a nice thing to say"

Jawbreaker is broken up. Jets to Brazil is broken up. I hear Blake is teaching English at a college somewhere on the East Coast. It's heartbreaking to think of him not making music.
