The Dear Hunter

The Dear Hunter is the name of an excellent New England-based progressive rock/indie band.

The Dear Hunter formed when former member of The Receiving End of Sirens, Casey Crescenzo, started the project after the band split up. As a member of TREoS, he yearned for a more experimental side of music that could not be satisfied due to the more straightforward songwriting style his bandmates were accustomed to. Shortly after the release of the album "Between the Heart and the Synapse", TREoS broke up. With his experimentalist musical ambitions in mind, Casey formed a new band under the name of "The Dear Hunter". With his new project, Casey began painting a tragic story of innocence and its corruption, all throughout a series of albums released as "Acts", with six acts total.

These acts are arranged chronologically, following the events that trail the main character, nicknamed "The Dear Hunter", a wordplay that foreshadows key events in the story. Born unto a prostitute mother, the innocent Dear Hunter struggles with the bitter horrors of sobering reality, encountering the horrors of humanity as his innocence withers away. The trouble began, but it never ended.

The result is a beautiful and musically enthralling masterpiece. I would highly encourage and recommend anyone who is an avid fan of music to pick up "Act I: The Lake South, The River North" by The Dear Hunter and go from there. Such a fantastic band deserves your attention.

ur dear a queer

The end of all arguments and insults. This insult will completely destroy the whole universe and there is no escaping from it. Please, for the love of God and everything on Earth and all we have, DON'T SAY THIS.
Faggot: ur mom gay lol
Me: ur chromosomes homozones
Faggot: ur generation cause frustration. i win hahaha
Me: *snickers* no u
Faggot: NO U
Me: Well, sorry, God, but I have to say this...
Faggot: *smiles but anxious with worry* You wouldn't dare.
Me: UR DEAR A QUEER
The world starts to collapse. The space-time continuum immediately stops and destroys itself and all of humanity dies. The faggot gets thrown into hell but even hell considered him unworthy and made him suffer a horrible - nothing - there is no afterlife anymore. There is no more life.
