SONG OF THE DAY (#254)

'doing all the things that wouldn't make your parents proud,' by the pains of being pure at heart

there's a mouthful.

these guys are getting tons of pub/hype right now. you know how i feel about hype, but i think this is a case where they product actually delivers. besides, they sound like the jesus and mary chain [the hope sandoval years], so they are automatically awesome. you could also make some valid comparisons the valentines and ride, both amazing bands.

i don't know much about them, but i love these songs: thick, hazy, poppy, melodic, rock 'n rolly three-chord songs. ah, the beauty of simplicity. it just don't get much better than that. but they might want to look into some shorter song titles. i'm just sayin'. you can check out the band here. the bandwagon leaves in 10 minutes, so best get on...

[i just listened to a song of there's called 'orchard of my eye' -- it's a clone of my bloody valentine's 'thorn.' again, i'm just sayin' -- maybe i'll post 'em both tomorrow so you can hear for yourselves.]
