This is rather odd since just this past weekend some friends and I wondered aloud what Blake Schwarzenbach (Jawbreaker, Jets To Brazil) was up to musically, if anything. From a recent Jawbreaker myspace update, Schwarzenbach had this to say:

“Musically, and I think maybe I can speak more clearly about this, I feel as though I am emerging from a kind of muted, reflective nuclear winter.  It’s awkward to talk about one’s own music since that is what we ask the music to do; so I’ll say only that it meets my own inner-standard of truth.  I believe in it enough to overcome my own fear of making it.  Hopefully we’ll find a bassist (a woman, over 30, who rides a bike and can resolve any dictionary disputes that might arise between the drummer and myself) and come to a town near you.”

Yes! I think I will go listen to some Jets To Brazil now! Thanks to What We Hate for the original heads up! Oh, and that cartoon is Mitch Clem of course.
