Before the weekend comes, I realize I am running a little behind on my ABC’s of VINYL, since I thought I might be done by December 1st. Oh well. 26 letters 35 days about. Who’s counting?

Q and Not U - Ten Thousand Animal Calls
FROM CALL IT A DAY 7INCH:
the Raconteurs - Steady as She goes (Acoustic)
FROM SUICIDE SQUEEZE 7INCH:

FROM THE INCLINED PLANE 7INCH:

So once again, thanks for checking these out. Let’s try something. Put together an email telling ten friends about this series. Maybe we can spread the word about this series before it ends! tpg

Check out the band Josef K… (For fans of Franz Ferninand, Strokes and Gang of Four)
Excerpted from the liner notes for Entomology, penned by the inimitable Paul Morley:
There needed to be a gloomy remotely intimate glam pop group named after a character created by Franz Kafka who detuned their pained, pining guitars like the Velvet Underground, who screwed up dance beats with as much nimble knowingness and/or amateurish exuberance as Devo, who faced up to long lasting reality with as much sad, mad grace as Magazine, who got stuck into logic as defiantly as Pere Ubu, who had spent a lot of time watching Television and listening to the first six or seven songs written by Buzzcocks.
They took themselves very seriously whilst circling the idea that fun was a very peculiar notion.
They were The Sound of Young Scotland, together with Orange Juice, whose guitars were also radiant and brittle, whose rhythms were also scrubbed and blunt, whose vocals were also proud and serious, but who sounded like another group completely.
A touch more rational. A little less glaring. A splinter less uptight. Lacking, perhaps, the art for art’s sake element that some of us swooned over, and which we see explicitly echoed in they way, say, the popular Franz Ferdinand express themselves.

Anyone see it? O’ Valencia. Who’s the new girl on percussion? Anyone? Anyone have a video??
It was weird when they pan over the audience and there isn’t anyone in the crowd under 40. Hmmm..
