ohmygodiwassowrong - former jonathan fire*eater hi...

ohmygodiwassowrong - former jonathan fire*eater hipster cuties the walkmen are ruling my world - 'we're been had' is the most charming, post-radiohead/neptunes music box self-deprication i've ever heard. 'sometimes i'm just happy i'm older - somehow it got easier to laugh out loud.'

'see me at age 19, with some dumb haircut from 1960, moving to new york city/ live with my friends - they're taking the same steps, we're foolish'

ya sure, he's the perfect blend of the strokes' guy and bono (is that perfect? is that my hell?) but somehow it elicits empathy in spite of the fact that i'm sure the lead singer of this band gets laid on command.

also, the abcs, the worst thing troubleman has put out since i've known the kids - pointless, reich-esque illustrations of how minimalist composition, much like punk, can go awry in the hands of the uninspired. plus...horns? gag. i'm only getting comfortable with the fact that rock music orginated with the sax, let alone the fact that it's still relevant.
