Quite Suppressed Yet Quite Revealing: Monday, January 28

Welcome to the newest regular feature on Supergig: Quite Suppressed Yet Quite Revealing.

in short, it's the song of the day. i will make a few comments about it, but it won't be the extremely long kind of post that i usually make. [hence, quite suppressed.] then, i'll post a song that means a lot to me. [hence, quite revealing.]

for any of you who are wondering...yes, the title of this feature is a song quote. it's a title from the song "I've Suffered A Head Injury" by The Verve Pipe, a song that snarks on the music industry for producing schlock. the goal of Quite Suppressed Yet Quite Revealing is to imbue your life with a little less schlock...and a little more rock.

we'll start this with a song that has been stuck in my head for days now: "My Letter" by Flaw. it's a song about being confused about where things stand with someone, so confused that it destroys any hope of a future. luckily i've never been in that situation before...but it's a scary idea, and Flaw treats it powerfully.

the band never made a video for it...so this video shows the lyrics on the screen.
