handsome family

listening to new album. quite good actually. interesting lyrics:

when automatic sinks in airports
no longer see your hands
and elevator doors close on you,
when buses drive right past.
when the only voice that answers
is the whir of a ceiling fan
your great journey has begun.

track three very tom waitsy.

Elevator doors been the subject of much controversy in Japan recently as a boy was decapitated last week when the lift doors closed on him in a Tokyo apartment building. Don't let that put you off your enjoyment of the Handsome Family though - looking forward to giving it a listen.

Well maybe that was a slight exaggeration but certainly suffered and died from some nasty head injuries!
