The creepy spoken word bit at the end seals it %28not sure what movie it%27s from%29%0D%0A%0D%0A%22Rooftops%22 - a bit more uplifting%2C this is a Hot Water Music song but the version I%27m thinking of is by Alkaline Trio. Reminds me of Bancroft Tower...%0D%0A%0D%0AYes%2C these are in the indie%2Fpunk vein and Symphony is more arena rock%2C but there you go. I don%27t know if any of the bands that Gryphon and co. have introed in the series fit the %22sullen hipster%2Fpunk%22 model at all though.%0D%0A%0D%0AOh%2C and Happy New Year%21 %0D%0A%0D%0A%22A good plan executed now is better than a perfect plan next week%22 - Gen George S.
