Theories are the Worst

They say that timing is everything, and this is great timing. Tomorrow, October 22, Seattle grincore outfit Theories will kick off a tour with The Infamous Gehenna; that same night, the band’s song “Burnt Concrete” will appear in an episode of FXX’s You’re the Worst, entitled “Spooky Sunday Funday.” I’m not detective, but I strongly suspect the episode is Halloween-themed.

If you haven’t seen it, You’re the Worst is about a pair of unsentimental, misanthropic assholes who kinda-sorta accidentally fall in love, an emotion with which they struggle on account of being unsentimental, misanthropic assholes. It is, without a doubt, my favorite romantic comedy on television right now. Here’s a red band (NSFW) trailer for the show:

So, basically, Theories are awesome, and You’re the Worst is awesome, and it’s awesome that these two things will come together, however briefly.

“Burnt Concrete” appears on Theories’ Regression, which is out now on Metal Blade. The band’s upcoming tour dates with The Infamous Gehenna are below.
