...more than top-notch musicians. They must also be tasteful—too many blasts of guitar noise, time signature changes, abrupt genre switches, and monotonous shrieks, and the listeners may go running for their parents’ Simon and Garfunkel records. Thankfully, however, TDEP demonstrate such a tight command of their craft that “Option Paralysis” manages to be a captivating, and at times sublime listen...

The National Command Authority has made a misguided but conscious decision not to educate the country too well about the strategic goals of al-Qaeda et al. Had it done so early on, politically attuned junior officers and noncoms would have stepped forward from the get-go to identify Islamist sympathizers like alleged shooter Major Nidal Malik Hasan.
