Biography

Wishing to make a change in musical monikers while refraining from typical catchy phrases, the four men composing Long Island's Diffuser indicated their smart and singled-out brash approach to making music at their forming in 1994. Tomas Costanza (guitar/vocals), Lawrence Sullivan (bass), Billy Alemaghides (drums), and Anthony Cangelosi (guitar), who were originally tagged Flu Thirteen, were already road dogs by this time and yearned for a selected creativity to push their warrior road ways beyond the indie soundscapes found on their 1998 Steve Albini-produced debut, In the Foul Key of V. The new millennium brought Diffuser a new record deal with Hollywood Records and another chance to define themselves. Summer 2000 showcased the band's single "Karma," which was included on the soundtrack to Mission Impossible 2, and one year later, the full-length Injury Loves Melody appeared. Making The Grade followed in summer 2003; enduring some lineup changes over the years, by this time the band comprised Costanza, Cangelosi, drummer Danny Leo, and bassist Peter Schojan. Leo later left to join Action Action. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

    Lyrics
    And I wonder if you ever think about me anymore
    And I wonder if you ever think about me when your bored
    And I wonder if you ever think about me when you're hangin' in New York
    And I wonder if you still think Bono writes his songs for you
    And I wonder if the reasons why you left me were untrue

    Lyrics
    Started from the end
    The worst is the best thing that, I ever knew
    Moses is my friend
    Since, I’m playing second fiddle in the duet
    Paying for what I am regretting

    Lyrics
    I think I'll be okay another diss, another day
    Left me standing like a stranger without a face
    I think I lost control, I feel my head is in slow mo'
    Infatuation leads right to emotion overload
    Temptation, frustration

    Lyrics
    She's burning out on apathy, unsure of where she wants to be
    If she could change the world, I think she'd rather sleep
    18 and feeling out of place, frustrated that she can't relate
    Knee deep in disillusion of her mental state
    In time you will learn to stand upon your feet

    Lyrics
    No one could ever just
    Take a chance on their lives
    No one could ever just say
    The words on their minds
    Breakdown the bulletproof lonely stare
