The Organ

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

The Organ

I don't recall them being mentioned here but I absolutely adore this song

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

That reminds me when all these "artists" were threatening to withhold their albums from iTunes because people were only buying a couple of songs and not the whole album. Make an album worth buying would be my answer but apparently they didn't see it that way.

I love the combination of the band's name with the album title:

The Organ, Grab that Gun

(as if one schlong reference isn't enough {and if anyone is going to reply "It never is", I'm expecting it to be Ivan)

And for the most part I like the music, but the singer sounds as though she's trying to get through the song while someone is stepping on her foot the whole time, like there's a little bit of pain.

Actually, during a second listen, she sounds like Debbie Harry's not as talented sister.

The Organ's lead singer Katie Sketch always reminded me of that film Boys Don't Cry.
