my computer says i made this little quote graphic in 2009. i can’t argue that, i start listening to world/inferno in 2007 or 2008, so that makes sense. it might have been on my myspace page in the bio/content section (and here it is on my myspace page again, lol).
this was my favorite song by them. i remember seeing them the first time open for bouncing souls at webster hall, maybe? i couldn’t believe how many people were playing on stage at once, they were amazing. they didn’t sound like any other band within our punk world. it was weird and refreshing.
one time, my ex and his sister and i all went up to the chance in poughkeepsie to see them play with the souls. he ended up being at the bar – just hanging out with the crowd like it wasn’t no thang and he was so nice, said hi and everything. i’ll feel like a dick forever, bc his sister and i were like “who is this older guy at the bar alone staring at us“. i had only seen him one time before that and totally forgot, and we just thought he was creepin’ for ladies or something (we are idiots), until he said hi and i put it together.
anyways, after that, i did get to witness the glory that was world/inferno a few more times. they never disappointed, and i’m sad the world will never have that again in this lifetime.
RIP, jack.
