In Which Pale Is The New Black.

The guitars in this song are so infectious.... whatever metaphorical disease they may be, I am totally down with it.

It comes from an otherwise fairly bad compilation I got a while back. I listened to it once, decided I'd been charged too much for it [Note: it was free], and didn't play it again until I decided to get rid of it recently. Of course, I couldn't do that without first checking to see if I missed anything listenable. Good thing I did.

The band was known as The Pale at the time the compilation was released, but has since changed its name to The Pale Pacific. Rolling Stone describes them as emo. Whatever, dude. If you dig it too, there are more tracks to download at sidecho.com.
