...we will come, we'll come again

i can't stop listening to circa survive. their stuff is so gorgeous, i totally can't get enough. and the sound of animals fighting are incredible. i'm so into these people. i wish that i could create something that beautiful. most people can't.

there's also this magical shroud of mystery around them for me. i don't know a thing about who they are, what they look like, etc.. and i like it that way. especially considering animals fighting has only played something like 4 shows in their entire existence, and they're from the west coast, so it's not likely i'll be seeing them any time in the near future.
sometimes knowing about the people behind the music takes away some of that magic. like if they're religious, or totally ridiculous looking or something. it just creates associations to the band that aren't about the music. i want it to be 100% about the music. i don't want to have the fact that they enjoy hunting, or wear eyeliner or whatever to be in my head. just how much i love the songs.
