Distant Stations 12/18/2007

Yeah, that's right. The Bad Doctor is back with another dose of suspicious medicine. It's Math Rock Week here at Distant Stations, and to celebrate, I'm going to confuse the living hell out of you with strange time signature changes, angular guitars, and indecipherable lyrics! It's going to be fun.
