Parts & Labor - Solemn Show World

I would drop out of school for a new Parts & Labor album.  Seriously.

The first time I heard this song was at their record release show, and it was fucking amazing.  I don’t know if it was the place where I was standing, but I’ve seen them since, and the guitar was never as loud as it was then, and it was perfect… once that lead line punched through the first time, I was almost floored.  Definitely my favorite performance/song/album of last year.  They’ve since parted ways with that guitarist, so I wonder what they’re going to do now, since I’ve not heard much since then.

Obviously, I’m going through another “thing” with this record.
