How much more – The Go-Go’s Yeah… To be a Go-Go… If i were to be able to choose just one band i could travel back in time and implant myself in their line up, their vision and accomplishments unchanged by my addition, it would be the Go-Go’s. I’m sure there are better bands, more [...]

Heard You Whisper

Heard you whisper – The June Brides A really dark sounding song from the really hard to pin down June Brides. Great trumpet too. It was always great – trumpet, viola, guitar, whatever. If there’s one thing i’ve noticed about the June Brides on the internet it’s how much they were revered in their day, [...]

Our love was built to last (Like Simon Dee) – Kitchen Cynics Simon Dee, who was born with the less zippy showbiz and more class revealing name of Cyril Nicholas Henty-Dodd, was a British television interviewer and radio disc jockey who hosted a twice-weekly BBC TV chat show, Dee Time in the late 1960s. After [...]
I’ll Never Find It

I’ve spent the last five hours going through my computer listening to the first five seconds of over 5,000 songs to find this one in particular in my head but unidentified. And there are another 15,000 to go, and i’m going to give up and call this day a bye. I know if i heard [...]
Solar Sister

Solar sister – The Posies Talk about your perfect songs. This goes right next to Naked Raygun’s Matastasis on my one-line-verse-bam-chorus mixtape. Gah! This song is so incredibly great! I’m terrible at gushing. It’s all attendant in the song anyway. One of the greatest songs ever written. Perfect, perfect, perfect! The chorus, the structure, the [...]
Everybody Wants To Rule The World

Everybody wants to rule the world – Tears For Fears It’s direct link to memory, moment or thing time again, and this song makes me wants to watch Real Genius like nothing else. I know i’ll be little let down if i do. It’s never the same. The gentleness of the movie feeds into the [...]
Mosh For Jesus

Mosh for Jesus – Dillinger 4 A vague expression and a silent motive to take this shithole by the fucking throat and then it’s on our hands. And that’s how the new world began. When i was younger (and this seems so long ago now it is scary) the lyrics of primarily three bands fell [...]
The Three R’s

The three R’s – Sommerset Ha. I just opened this CD to rip this song and the grimiest of guitar picks from who knows when fell out. I’m disgusting. I saw Sommerset only twice, and each of those times at opposite ends of this curve of normal distribution my reverence for the band took. The [...]
Dreaming

Dreaming – Allo, Darlin’ Song of the year for me, probably, if i don’t get over it by the year’s end. It really makes me feel good, wistful, normal, and connected to an undefined and often distant and restricted unassembled assembly of fun, carefree, in touch, mark-making, pretty young things. I don’t know why, but [...]
