there's something terribly wrong and godforsaken about the new belle and sebastian album. it matches the worst parts of elephant 6 psych big band with overwrought twee and...later byrds' production. icck.

am making a mix for my 'music and modern life' class which i like to think of as going back into the 'mod life' once a week for 2.5 hrs. the theme is 'dirty pop' based on the v/vm comp slam of n'sync's fantastico piece of plastic. will prolly include momus' 'the penis song' just for adolescent amusement, since the CDR will be placed in the library sans name for all to guess who made what. what do you want for an assignment based on 'high fidelity'?

in other news, W butter not veto that FCC overturn shit. it's hott that those DC types are paying attention to crap that Powell&co spew from their big-5 funded asses.
