  • creepy song. A nice teaser though, to set up the character of the guy who kills his family as part of a rock opera. Now I need closure. Now I must get the album.

    I think i like the folksier “i married a bird that knocked on my door” types of songs to the “i’m an angry murderous pirate” songs. Aka, acoustic vs electric.
