Unlikely

It looks like Jeffrey Brown directed one of the videos for the new Death Cab for Cutie video album. I was looking at the trailer and thinking "Hey, that art looks familiar!" and sure enough, it's that guy (although he really needs a new or updated website).

I do enjoy his stuff. I ordered and bought Unlikely when it first came out after seeing his work online, and while the Death Cab website describes his comics as "bittersweet" (which is still pretty accurate), you can also think of it as the comic art manifestation of emo.

Which, you know, I do enjoy on occasion.

What? Shut up! I will not be shamed into not loving emo. And you shouldn't be either. It's good for you in measured doses.

I read one or two of his things.
I believe in emo before it became screamo, pre "movement" emo and the like. I like the emotionalness of lyrics and the like, not so much the whisper/scream dynamic prevalent in the music today.
