For those of you outside of my brothers who didn't know me in Jr. High. I was a painfully nerdy, fat kid who didn't really get why he wasn't cool. I thought the stuff I was into was cool. Like comic books and star trek and japanimation as I used to call it (now called ANIME by the nerd snobs). It was a tough time. Moving a lot and having wierd new stepdads and stepmoms and being a (relatively) poor kid at (really) rich school. One of the few things that kept me from committing suicide was Information Society. Don't Laugh FUCKERS!!! To me they were brilliant. They struck a cord. All these aching unrequited love songs fed through the filter of sci-fi and hacker mystique. And this was before the Matrix and a million other lame ass films had sort of sullied the idea of the hackers. This might have even been before l33t speak. I don't know. But I really identified with those damn songs.
Well I found out today that the band is Getting back together!! Fuck they are even touring! They are putting together a website at www.informationsociety.us and have a myspace page with new songs up.

I couldn't be more excited.
Here's a pic from the recent press photo shoot they did with the two new band members:
