New Coldplay

In the goodness of their hearts, Coldplay has released a song from their new album for free. For the rest of this week, "Violet Hill" can be downloaded from coldplay.com. This is the first release from the new album "Viva la Vida" which comes out in June.


The song is very interesting and I don't know what to make of it. Violet Hill has a darker tone, or at least it feels like it to me. I have always been a bigger fan of the slower songs by Coldplay. Between the lyrics, guitar, and the long silent prelude and exit. it feels darker. Coldplay has said this album will be what they are going to be known for. They have also said there will be a song that whole World has to hear. Pretty bold claims.
I personally feel a little bitter, it has been 3 years since the release of X&Y, which had some great songs, but had its shortcomings. Even though there aren't too many songs, I expect big things from this album.

Our announcement photo shoot!!!

So we had a friend take a ton of photos for an announcement card. What we got was pure comedy. Turns out we aren't ridiculously good looking. But there is more to life than being really, really, really, good looking.

Oven Door!


Bri's attempt to look like Will Ferrel from Old School during the wedding scene in the beginning. You have to see to understand.



Our creepy shot. We did our best to hold the laughter in.



And finally for our homies in SoCal, such as Keith. You know we gotta represent...blood for life. Dang, Bri is hood-rich.

Overall this was a good experience. We learned that we aren't photogenic, at least under pressure. I think when all is said and done, we will most likely use the oven door shot. Lets hope Bri will allow it. Wish me luck!

So it begins

Bri and I realize how obsessed everyone can be over us, therefore we have been coerced into creating a blog. However, we understand the demand and are willing to comply to the dreams of millions. Now you all can read emphatically about what flavor of oatmeal I ate this morning~~~to how I feel about real issues such as; the latest additions into "Oprah's favorite things"
