Who the fuck are The Wrens?

When New Jersey does something right I feel like a moment needs to be taken, just to let everything thing sink in you know? Just a moment to say a prayer for loved ones, and admire the miracle that is anything good coming out of new jersey. Now i'm sure it feels like 911 to hear those words, "Good and guido-land" in succession, however lets take a moment to reflect on cool things that came from NJ.
-John D. Rockefeller operated his standard oil company from Bayonne

-Cymbals Eat Guitars are from there....
...hmm. I guess we can revisit this later.
Oh wait, the point of this post, the fucking wrens (its actually just the wrens). Today i saw on some stupid website that this band was working on a new LP, and i had never heard of them before so i checked out their highest reviewed album "the meadowlands". To my surprise they were kind of whiny and lacking in awesomeness. As i later embarked on a treacherous adventure to buy boxes for my mother, a strange task that I'm still confused by, i was struck by the chorus of 'Happy,' a song off the album, which had wedged itself into my head. Suffice it to say i grew angry and started cursing violently to rid the melody from my brain, but to no avail, just a bunch of scared children playing four-square next to my vehicle. I don't know why i was parked in a playground either. The point, the wrens aren't actually good, they use magic to embed their music in your head. Oh, and they are from New Jersey, however i'm not sure if we should take a pause for them yet. I...I just don't know what to think anymore.
