man, billboard magazine really is for industry choads. this isn't surprising so much for readership but in that they actually hype the revival of cracker as interesting and vital. publishing companies take out full page spreads thanking destiny's child for staying quiet and subservient enough to be the most uninteresting, toppest selling artists of the year. again. no wonder millions of dollars are wasted on redundant and unimportant crap.
thus said, starsailor. ha ha ha. who doesn't understand this to be 1)storm in heaven era Verve with those undeniable Beta Band beats (how bad are the BB? watching High Fidelity the other day I remember how silly that whole thing was, and i went for it whole heartedly) and 2)completely revisionist brit pop agitation. 3) the collective conspiracy of the drone on and blisscent mailing lists. the organ is overstated and reminds me for some reason of that Jacob Dylan headlight song. This is not a good thing.
