listening to peng - stereolab, revelling in the utter mid-90sness of mental dispair.

formulating what i want my solo/covers project to sound like :::

stereolab - peng 'super falling star'
nico - chelsea girls
young marble giants - collossal youth
the orb - orbus terrarum - that incredible string track
smashing pumpkins - gish - rhinoceros/suffer

and thinking about songs that are sonically built on lyrical quirks/conceptions - self-referential but also providing a sound argument (ouch!) for the lyrical content -
buzzcocks - noise annoys
spiritualized - 200 bars
