If you haven't heard it yet...

Okay, so you take the atmospherics of The Verves 'A Storm in Heaven,' deep philosophical themes from Pink Floyd, The Whos power chords, some of The Rolling Stones rawness, a little of Becks melancholy, and Porcupine Trees asymmetric melodies, and you take all of that; put it all together in an orgy and you have my album 'Death of the American Dream.'
