To be a shifter is to cry on the floor filled with a jealousy that the average person in your life could never understand.

To be a shifter is to feel betrayal at a version of your lover that they don't even know exists.

To be a shifter.

(can you tell i'm going through a existential crisis right now? )

BUT! Instead of being named Johnny I scripted it’s Thomas Castle

So cute and fine!

A small band from Liverpool is stirring things up in the rock and roll scene, but how much rock is too much rock?

The Doctors formed in June of 1961 after the five band members met at a hospital's emergency room. Since then, they have been performing at small venues, and even though they've gathered a niche community, it seems that bigger offers aren't coming their way in lieu of the band's modern (or, well, peculiar) sound.

Distortion, loud playing, and louder noise. Even when covering other artists, they make sure to add their Doctors' uniqueness to briefly make the songs their own. Some love it, most take it with a pinch of salt, but the one thing that's for certain is that none have heard anything like it before. The man guilty of the band's characteristic ring is no other than Charlie Monday, lead guitarist and songwriter alongside Eric Mye, vocalist and rhythm guitarist.

We were able to get a statement from Monday on his approach to music and the general public's reception of it.

CHARLIE MONDAY: It's often I get told that we play "noise" instead of music. I'm okay with it, because it's true: we're noisy and loud, and that's what allows us to have fun when we perform. That's what this is all about, in the end - having fun, enjoying music and time spent with friends. We want to feel alive when we're on stage, and to us life is loud and messy, even in the quiet moments.

INTERVIEWER: Are all your songs energetic? No ballads for the occasional lover?

C. MONDAY: We have some songs we don't perform in front of an audience. Not for fear of people's critiques, but simply because they're personal. Some are slow, some are cheesy, some are simply boring in some regards, but none are meant for sharing with strangers in a performance. It's just too personal, it wouldn't be the same to play them in a context we associate with chaos and fun. Eric, for instance, loves screaming his heart out on stage but also singing as sweetly as he can to the ones he cares about. I have half a mind not to force him to mix those two spaces up.
