Liars - They Were Wrong, So We Drowned
Paul: Dissonant. Arhythmic warbling inspired by the sounds
of medical equipment. It destroyed my kidney stone.
George: Is this music? It pains me.
Ringo: I think my record keeps skipping. And my speakers
are obviously blown. Unintelligible, confused, uninteresting.

On Air Library - On! Air! Library!
Paul: Lush. Cocteau Twins. Snowpony. Droning with a pinch
of Petula Clark.
George: Very New York art rock. Velvet Underground for
a new millenium. Textural and Vibrant.
Ringo: Taxiing around, but never gets off the runway.
God not mommy were barf virgin whore.

Emilie Autumn - Enchant
Paul: Like fast talking trip-hop.Fast songs good. Slow
songs bad. Why can't Tori read?
George: Amazingly talented singer/instrumentalist who
lacks ability to identify with common folks. Damned Rennaissance
Faeries.
Ringo: Bad Turkish pop. She thinks she fliggah. I don't
opt it. Channeling Ofra Haza.
John: Sushi is good. Ice cream is good. Don't mix them
together.

Stereolab - Margerine Eclipse

dickies and front swept hair. Damn Frenchies.
George: Sixties jet-set girl in a world of go-go boots
and felted wool swing coats.
Ringo: Brilliant shiny electro-pop with nowhere to go
and no time to be there. Excellent.

Lesser Birds Of Paradise - String Of Bees
Paul: Deep, folky clever, lush. Brilliant. Ramblin' Jack
elliott meets Cakekitchen.
George: Warm, melancholy folk. Gorgeous. Makes a resonance
in your chest. Buy it for real, yo!
Ringo: It's like a dad who sings to himself and practices
his guitar while his daughter drifts to sleep.

Chrome Yellow Co. - Red Light Runners
Paul: Think Strokes without all the hype. Exciting new
band with fab guitar. Smooth Jane's Addiction.

started singing.

Like Laugh-In.

get in the way. Impressive Mams.

Catchy, listenable Madonna-ish hip-hop. Nice boobs.

album, great tits.

Think John Prine for your generation. Intricate. Delicious..
George: Van Morrison with southern rock voice. Watched
one too many lonely westerns on TV Land.

stuff. Sad and lovely like Leonard Cohen.
John: there was a band with mellow songs and Bingo was
their name-o.

Ivy guitars.
