I spent hours listening to their songs (albeit among those of various other artists you like); how have I not been properly introduced? Just the other day, amongst the clutter of your desk, I saw that little list I made, oh-so-seemingly-long-ago. Anyways, if you want me to form a more positive association with your precious NIN, you'll either have to forcefully apply a tire iron to my head, or do something ridiculously endearing while their songs are vomiting in the background.
As for Death Cab, it is among the tastes I've acquired from you--like Thai food and politics... though, I still don't love politics. It's like watching temperamental children play Hungry Hungry Hippos. So, then, the voters are, (of course), the little balls the gluttonous hippos must consume, so that the child controlling their jaws can gather the most, and win the game. Not exactly a sport crowds flock to, am I right? But, if someone you respect, and enjoy listening to, points out the strengths and weakness of each child, and those of their respective hippo(s), it develops into a discordant science that just becomes impossible to ignore...
