about

V. - This is another song inspired by conversations that Nic and I have had and what I would consider to be one of our more reoccurring points, that it is OK to hate shit. Believe me his song took a long time to write because I wanted to make sure that my point didn't get muddled or confused and that I wasn't coming off like a complete asshole standing on a soapbox.That being said, *standing on my soap box*, when I say "its OK to hate shit," I mean, you and other people are entitled to have opinions on things that don't matter, things that don't cause other people harm and that are based on your own likes and dislikes. For example, love a band or hate a band. Don't push your love of that band on people that hate it, and don't push your hate of that band on people that love it. Don't care what other people feel about it. If you love REO Speedwagon, fucking great, I don't give a shit, I'm glad you listen to art you can enjoy that I don't enjoy, more power to you. In return, just don't give a shit how I feel about REO Speedwagon and we'll be cool. Don't forget that we are all different people with different likes and dislikes, we're punks and we aren't fucking hippies. That being said, this same ideology does NOT broadly transfer over to other topics. Topics that do matter, that have an impact on peoples lives. We should all fight against real hate that threatens to hurt or disrupt people that we love. Don't be accepting of that kind of hate. Don't be tolerant of that kind of hate. But do be tolerant of what John Doe thinks about the last fucking episode of Drama Housewives. Fight the fights that matter, Not the trolling internet webisodes of crap that EVERYONE virally spews into the world that mean absolutely fucking nothing.

lyrics

I fucking hate you
but that's ok, because I love someone else
So it sort of evens out that way.
All bullshit is cyclical,
we put peoples ghosts on pedestals,
only to be devastated that they don't comfort us
when we're at our lowest of lows.
I'm sinking down so low.

Can someone please vindicate this feeling?
I swear I'm not an asshole but I cant stop hating.

You're just another dead ringer
that went to art school,
well good for you...
This is just another case
of mistaken identity.
I mistook myself for someone else,
Someone better.

Can someone please vindicate this feeling?
I swear I'm not an asshole but I cant stop hating
Certain people for all the fucked up things
that they've said and done
to the ones that I love.
To the ones.

I ink and I yell
all the words I want to believe
I'll join my voice with yours
in times of greatest need.

(I've got friends in the attic,
I've got friends in the grave,
Ones that I see every god damn day.
I got friends that only show
at the weekend shows,
that's OK, that's just how it goes)

What started as two acquaintances just coming together to play a house show, quickly turned into four dudes making music in a crowded dank basement in Chicago. Otto Mann is honest, open hearted, quick to temper and occasionally belligerently gushy. We write music for the kids we used to be and the idiots we've now become. ... more
