Pretty Girls Make Graves - Bring It On Golden Pond
I don't have a whole lot to add to the Pretty Girls Make Graves discussion beyond some simple praise and admiration. The band is bitchen and loaded with pacific northwest cred. the troubadour is bitchen and loaded with la cred (i realize you may consider that a contradiction, but it is my birthright to tell all you bitches that la cred exists and if you don't know you don't have it. bitches.)
Bullet Train to Vegas - Cut The Party To Pieces
i wrote about these guys a while back... this track never inspired me to buy the record, but listening to it again i wonder why i haven't put this on a mix tape? anyway... like i said before:
i realize that cassette tape click and hiss intro is played the fuck out, but this track kicks into high gear right the fuck away to make up for it. if the blood brothers weren't so fucking annoying most of the time, they might sound something like this. i realize that NOT creaming my jeans over the blood brothers means i'm not cool or i'm too closed minded or my musical tastes have no art or whatever.... if you want to have a weird contest, i can get weird on you mofos, so let's just drop it.
it seems to me like there should be another minute worth of material here, instead of the slim minute-forty of song we get. the fade out seems to cut short a pretty good song before it can fully develop. but thinking a song is too short is probably a compliment.
