Built to Spill - "Conventional Wisdom"
Dessert comes first today. The solo is in the opening, and we start out talking and then realise we've said it all already. I've said this all already. /\///\//\//\\/\/\/\///\\/\//\/\\\\\\\/\\\/\///\\/\

I heard this on Tofu Hut and knew you would like it. Hear them building a monster in the first half, and then be scared as they make him dance, growl, lunge, in the second. [Buy]
Carrie (feat. Cat Power) - "Cat Power / Yesterday is Here"
The publicity person of an artist named Carrie sent me one of Carrie's songs, unfortunately bearing the name "Cat Power". I couldn't listen to it properly, obviously. What I heard instead is more like what you're hearing now. A complete mess: the song itself, extremely fluffy (cats are her favourite pet), with Chan Marshall moaning in the background, somehow living inside the song, killing it, killing everything. [Buy Carrie, Buy Cat Power]

Posted by courtney at April 11, 2006 8:15 AMWow, that Carrie/Cat Power track is, uh, completely horrible. Completely.
