(and not to get in BARS RR subject when a perfect song for it appears- there is the slightest possibility that it hadn’t been released yet – when I did nom it – but let’s not split hairs – I was robbed)

Beach Fossils I absolutely loved. Very JAMC-doing-their-quiet-melodic-stuff – which is fine by me.

Wild Nothing – still convinced this is Swedish – meandered at times, but swoonsomely lovely at its best.

I’ll listen to Wolf Parade when I’m not supposed to be working.

NEW GENRE ALERT!

What do we call it?

2-folk-step?
Dub-folk-step?
Clean?
Summerhouse?

Tell us what you call it?

what I disliked was bland soft rock – and pop that catered to the lowest form of interest…. and it isn’t ironic, it’s still bland. what gets my goat is the fact we couldn’t avoid what the BBC dads played – there was no alternative – this seeped out everywhere – and you had to suffer it.. because ‘they’ new best. We had to save to buy an alternative album and really hope it lived up to the fanzines/nme/melody maker/sounds hype or get a snatchet of sound on John Peel and hope he had read the name correctly.

what haunted graffiti gives me is huge flashbacks to that shit sound engulfing my teenage years that I was powerless to turn off – to me it just isn’t FUNNY – that’s why we invented Nick Cave.
