[Unfortunately, The Wrock Snob is unavailable this week, and had to call in for a substitute to write this article. We hope the Wizard Rock Reviewbot 3000 suffices.]

Witty introduction referencing previous article. Mention of today’s topic, Lord of the Strings. Brief history acknowledging their status as an older wizard rock band that existed for roughly one of your human years and produced a single album, entitled First Year Students, including mention of a partially-finished but never-released second album.

Exploration of the positive qualities of the band in question, including but not limited to: the cross-fandom love evidenced by their band name, funny, light-hearted songs with amusing lyrics, an experimental feel that is rather unique to wizard rock of that time period, the honest love for books that just comes through the songs, and a wide representation of genres that makes the album sound varied without seeming schizophrenic.

Brief listing of stand-out tracks on the album and their qualities, such as the catchy melody, amusing Sirius voice, and sweet friendship of “Buckbeak and Sirius (BFF)”, the lyrical and musical TRAF-esque aesthetic of “The Passion”, the bi-polar heartfelt yet darkly amusing “Cedric”, and the bordering-on-epic “You Shall Not Pass”.

Humorous anecdote involving the band’s history, how I found this band, or the band’s ongoing influence among weak-willed humans, possibly including a reference to not-quite-Adult movie “Lord of the G-Strings” which clogs up most google searches for this band.

Comment on the availability of the band’s music, including brief mention of the now-sparse MySpace page, and the YouTube page where most of the music can be found. Conclusionary sentence to this topic remarking on the difficulty of finding a download link for the whole album in handy mp3 format, but with somewhat empty hope that it might not be impossible.

Quick smattering of somewhat unrelated words disguised as an attempt at an intelligent conclusion, urging the reader to check out Lord of the Strings, and whetting the reader’s filthy human appetite for the next installment of this drivel.

Catchphrase.
