    Convince me why I should like The Beatles

    You should like thee Beatles because they had a few really good songs and since most of you are English and European they were the first group to really overtake the evilAmerican dominant capatalistic paradigm of just making better more original and influential music than the fucken Poms. But...

    Moritz Von Oswald Trio

    You reckon? I really like the record. But I really found that article just nothing. Nice spaces on it and real instruments and tasteful metal banging, reminds me of the 80s and of Neubaten when they got funkier. It's krautrock, its not techno. It's the best Brian Eno record he can't just make.

    Moritz Von Oswald Trio

    The interview in the latest WIRE was the dullest shit I have ever read. That Sherburne guy redefines the term 'hipster hack'. But now that Von Oswald is 'out' seems like the fun is over.

    school me on deep house

    I always dug this track back in the days, it just has a great minimalist deep-clipped sound and good chick vocals, and it's gay (as opposed to 'indie') as shit which is a good prerequisite for any dance music. All house music should have such a luxuriously modern warm sound like this This...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    I finally saw PERFORMANCE, and what a fucking great fucking movie it was!! Great soundtrack too. Really gets into the whole identity, artist, sexuality mind fuck thing and it's very psychedelic as well. Also has lots of literary reference to Borges and the like. Yeah its terrific. Also watched...

    What is Deleuze?

    Isn't Deleuze the poster boy for asexuals as they traverse their way from My Bloody Valentine records to The Gossip and end up becoming Lacanian Queer-core marxists hell bent on destroying the hetero paradigm and moder of identity, only to get smashed in the face by the homophobic tribal...

    Alt-country

    Yep. He's also in OLD JOY and WENDY and LUCY or whatever it was called. I guess you can't go past the seminal 'country rock' album, the Byrds SWEETHEART OF THE RODEO...but that Sony 2-disc set is a total killer, especially the more psychedelic stuff on CD 2. I never understood Neil Young's...

    Alt-country

    Without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, alot of the 'indie', like any country, is only as good as the SINGING, so generally sweet female voices work best, thought despite being a talented twat and being more prolific and dudful (though not as all round as AWFUL) as Elton John, RYAN...

    Ben Lee - positivity, indie, dance, New York, global, winner!

    ...WOuld it be fair to say that BEN LEE is the seminal in that he totally revolutionised indie msuic and infused in it that sort of ECSTATIC POSITIVITY that is the norm in indie these days... And while many seem to deride the 'slacker, rich guy, ennui, depression' of the 90s American-indie...

    Sonic Middle-Aged

    ..Interesting to see the intellectual surgery done to Sonic Youth by Reynolds and the K-Punk bloke... Both of them quite correctly picked the Youth 'epoch' period being between 1984-89, and for anyone that was alive around then, they were pretty much the most original, unique, experimental rock...

    Moritz Von Oswald looks like Matthew Sweet meets Boyd Rice!

    Wasn't he in the Associates? As a 'percussionist'? O r was that some misinfo regarding 'Paris Schoenberg'?

    Moritz Von Oswald looks like Matthew Sweet meets Boyd Rice!

    That's why I like 'artists' who shun an identity. At the end of it, the work is all that matters.

    'music to stand on a mountain to' genre - shit post-punk!

    No taking the piss, thats what you use a prick for? And I like how you use such emotive words like 'gay genocide', I'm almost tempted to throw up Godwin's law.

    That was so hilarious I just shot water out of my nose! You reckon he was a Phil Oakey fan?
