I, the mighty and foreboding Panicman123, have decided to start a new...thing. As "Ask Panicman123" was a shameless rip-off, this is new. It's called, "Panicman123's You gotta Check this Out!" Each week I'll blog about something that you gotta check out, be it books, comics, music, movies, or anything I want.

Molly is one of those bands that you feel in your soul as you listen, and the music consumes you. YOU GOTTA CHECK IT OUT!
