My name is Sam, and I am a 20 year old Conservation and Environmental Science major at UW-Milwaukee. My passion lies in Primatology/Zoology (in which I will most likely get my master's/Ph.D) I am currently obsessed with Avatar the Last Airbender and Legend of Korra. I love Norwegian pop music, most of all a-ha. Sometimes I post about Bear Grylls. This is an eccentric collection of things that interest me.

WHY DO PEOPLE INSIST ON ALWAYS COMPARING THEM
they are completely different bands the only similarity is that they both played new wave music at some point and that Nick and Sylvian happened to have the same haircut for a fucking year or two
there are just so many other bands that it would make more sense to compare to either of them I don’t underSTAND

Reblogging for Ana’s commentary.

Not to mention they don’t even appeal to the same fan base necessarily. I /LOVE/ DD, and I really don’t like Japan.
