![]() ![]() special introductory paragraph! Mass Romantic Electric Version Twin Cinema Live! Challengers Together Like anal, it means you're gay? Well, it does. I often find myself asking you, "What happened to all the great bubblegum stars of yesteryear?" What happened to Gary Glitter?Īh yes, he got arrested for possession of child pornography. But what about all the other great bubblegum stars of yester, jerry? What happened to the Bay City Rollers?Īh yes, that one guy got arrested for possession of child pornography. Maybe the problem isn't today's MUSIC at all, but today's pornography. See, it was all a clever set-up to display my brilliant literary genius, the likes of which you're all jealous and stupid asshole. But there's more to my review than just a clever set-up. They play BUBBLEGUM MUSIC! With hints of really early "Little Willie"-style glamp! Who doesn't like Glamp Music? Think Ohio Express! Think Assocation! Think 1910 Fruitgum Company! Just don't think me late for dinner!!! For example, there's the part where I talk about the music of Vancouver's The New Pornographers (supposedly they're an indie rock "supergroup" but the day I hear of bands called Destroyer, Zumpano, Limblifter and Thee Evaporaters is the day I remove my finger from this dike and drown all of San Francisco in her vaginal fluids). Reader you better get your finger out of that dike, because Destroyer and Thee Evaporators are two fine indie rock bands. Destroyer have been one of my favorites for a year or so. and they sound very cluttered but beautifully poppy and uplifting. The sound is rather loose but not in a sloppy way, just in a very relaxed manner with well structured songs and plenty of Bah Bah's to go around. ![]() ![]() Thee Evaporators are more of a funny band, the music is still very good mind you, but the songs are, well, I think you'll like them (sample titles: Don't Hump The Dog, I Got a Rash, Telephone In Shoe). Not just novelty funny or "oh that's cute funny" laugh out loud funny. If you want I could burn you a copy of the latest Destroyer album and mail it.Ī fizzantasic debut - all the songs are upbeat and sugary, but with really thick distorted guitars and fun bubbly Cars-style synths AND I DON'T GODDAMN MEAN THE GODDAMN GARY NUMAN SONG - Sometimes when I'm in the local Pizzeria Uno enjoying their special Chicago-style pan pizza, I hear a Turtles song or a Dave Clark Five on the stereo and I think to myself, "What happened to music like this? Uptempo. prechorus/chorus 3 The way you do, the way you do.Miss teen wordpower, Miss teen wordpower Nobody knows the wreck of the soul the way you do, the way you do.Sugar sweet - and not BORING!" The New Pornographers have reclaimed that music and brought it back to the nineties with a venGEance! The vocal lines have NOTES! Melodic LINES! Guys and girls harmonizing together! Yet there are still distorted guitars rockin' out! This is a wonderful development, mostly because they're honestly truly GOOD songwriters - these are not the shit-filled E-A-D play-by-numbers disappointments you're used to hearing from bland power-pop-punk bands. Miss teen wordpower, Miss teen wordpower Bridge C, G, D, Dsus4 So we float through the streets, breathe city lights, claims of the crown forgotten (x2) So we float through the streets, float through the streets. Prechorus/chorus 2 Because nobody knows the wreck of the soul the way you do.the way you do. To rain, the pageant's called again, you'll find This kind of blank adventure happens all the time. The swimsuit portion of the evening canceled due. Verse 2 We fought to find our thoughts, the runway walked us through. Prechorus/chorus 1 Because nobody knows the wreck of the soul the way you do.the way you do. This kind of blank adventure happens all the time. New Pornographers - Miss Teen Wordpower Intro F,Bb (palm muted) Verse 1 Our words move aimlessly through empty city squares Collecting into mobs and angry like their prayers They breathe, the air we thought to leave-behind. ![]()
