Debuted today on XM as the followup to the #1 alt. hit 1901. I really didn't care for 1901 and only remember Listomania from the one time I heard it on Promo Only Modern. After one listen of Lasso, it sounds like a carbon copy of the phrasing and sound of 1901. Not much diversity with these guys I assume?
EDIT : CORRECTED TITLE

Shouldn't this be the follow up to Lisztomania, as that is the second single? ???

Yes, this would be the followup to the currently-charting (and from the last time I checked, rising) "Lisztomania".
I would have really liked it if "Rome" or "Armistice" or "Fences" were selected instead.
As I said in the "Lisztomania" thread, it's really nice to see this band getting some play on Alternative. I've liked this band for a long time.

Just because this damn song was played on XM does not, in any way, mean its going to be a single. Artie has no idea what a real radio single even is. I've given up trying to explain it. Not to say it won't be someday however it's definitely not getting pushed to radio right now.
Artie lives in a world of purple skies, lollipops and friendly dragons.

... And lepricons. "Lisztomania" is actually going for adds again on April 4th. So, this is an utter nonsense.

Altnation does not play album tracks, so this is legit. Maybe this is for the stations who played Listzomania when it went out in April of '09. Either way, too familiar sounding.

(Please don't get mad at me like some other thin skinned people here) Well that's one way to make the "thin skinned people" who were already mad at you, mad at you again. And as a third-party observer, you seem just as agitated as the "thin-skinned people" you go at it with. Just saying. |

That's true, but MLIAS was a total dips**t to Gates of seattle, and honestly, just because you're on the internet doesn't mean you have a free pass when it comes to considering how other people feel. And I have no problem calling him out on it as a third party observer, cuz he was basically being a bully about it. And then it WAS over, and MLIAS took the opportunity to dig into him with the "thin-skinned people" comment, which was totally unnecessary, and I wasn't gonna let him get away with it that time.
If you want the "explosion of rage" to subside, you don't just tell everyone to take a chill pill; you call people out on it and hold those accountable for it that are at the source of it.

I mean no offense Pen, but a couple years ago, you used to get into these sorts of squabbles all the time. And while you haven't been as much recently, don't you think it's kinda hypocritical for you to say this whole thing is stupid, when you've been at the center of many things like this, yourself? Or does that just strengthen your authority on the matter? |

That having been said, I am totally a hypocrite and I make no bones about it. It's the only way for me to always be right.
Which I totally am.

Touché.
And while you're not always right, luckily for you, you happen to agree with me (and thus be right) a majority of the time.

Everyone on this board needs a freaking sense of humor......its brutal to have stupid comments made to me over something that was a total joke. Yeah, i get pissed. But I don't roll over, I stand up for myself. He stuck his nose in like a busy body and I'm just supposed to say......yeah you're right , I'm mean and unnecessary. |

I just stated my opinions. In the end that's how I feel, I don't believe others will feel that way and I will admit that I did over emphasize a few things. I'm sorry that came off as harsh. I do apologize for that. |

I decide to play dumb about lockebox's butchered spelling of "leprechaun" and look what happens in my wake.

Well, why would I know how to spell Leprechaun? It's not exactly a word I use. That's probably the first time I've used it ha.
