PrettyFakes

over a year ago big gray made me laugh out loud when he e-mailed me this little tidbit:

I found out the Dismemberment Plan’s AIM name and instant messaged them. Here is a transcript of the conversation:

xxx: hey! are you guys the dismemberment plan? What do you sound like?
xxx: go to dismembermentplan.com. You can listen to our albums in their entirety in RealPlayer. Thanks!

And then they hung up/logged off.

haw! they still have one of the WORST NAMES IN ROCK AND ROLL, right up there with godspeed! you! defraud the indy rock!! Or whatever they’re called. I don’t count sigur ros, because they’re foreign, and possibly mentally disabled.

but gorjus! you might ask. who is the muthafuckin’ bomb in the oh-three? and you know the answer, sassy: the new pornographers. when sweet-pie neko case squeals “we’ll all fail . . . ” in “the laws have changed,” i wanna fall in love. and not just with her! but that would be nice.

dear wheat: please oh god oh frigging PLEASE release “do you really want me.” it’s my favorite song of all time. except for all of master of puppets. oh, and a lot of other stuff. but it’s my favorite today and it’s getting all dusty and there are people listening to fucking pedro the lion whose life you might save with the power of pure pop. and whoo-oohs! until then, just go download it, savvy?

the exploding hearts recently got rave reviews over at pitchfork, but they’re still a little light on the song and heavy on the treble. still, “sleeping aides and razor blades” makes my little heart go all a’pitter-patter!

and the postal service. always the sweet, sweet beats of the postal service.

‘till next time, fearless reader!
