how's that for pomo?
2 white guys in their early '20s in faux tribal garb with a band name that makes you look foolish trying to say it.
the album's ok, verging on good, but
this song makes me long to be 16 again, sitting in my room reading NME and making mix tapes for that girl in my english class that always wrote on the soles of my Chuck Taylors.
o christ, I'm becoming a pomo emo mofo now.
anyway,
Electric Feel (the song I'm talking about) reminds me of early Prince filtered through Kate Bush's
Running up that Hill. which would've sent 16 year old me into a tizzy. it sends almost 40 year old me into a tizzy also, but in a different way. the
holyfuckIdon'twanttogetold tizzy. don't get me wrong, I don't want to go back to high school either, I just don't like the way this ship is headed. no one gave me a map and I never learned how to swim.
uh, cue the midlife crisis. ;)
