they are ok.

most 'guitar music' is fucking shitty and extremely boring
though.

let's make music. we need a bassguitar, a vocalist and a
guitar. now that's music. we can even use the same three
chords in all our material. not like anybody did it before
or anything.

lame. and so are you.

I used ot think guitar based music was lame, but thats just
because I hadnt discovered the "IDM" of guitar based music
:) Groups like the Microphones, Destroyer, You will Know Us
By The Trail of Dead... , Wilco, are all amazing.

I have all their records. no, they're not original, but
they've got great, songs, arrangements, performances, etc.
originality isn't everything, sometimes refinement's quite
good.

they are quite alright. actually one of the "rock" bands i
can listen to, and not get bored/frustrated.

there isn't anymore orignialality in electronic music than
there is in guitar based music. good and orignial music is
found in many many genres.

i don't know anything about belle and sebastian except that
the cover of an album of theirs features the girls from mum.

Yes. This band has been a revelation for me the last couple
days. ''Sleep the Clock Around'' is playing right now, and I
want to lick the sound vibrations, the song is that good.

And the sisters from Mum are very very hot! I also want to
lick them.

Yeah, when that horn playing comes in, I melt. I agree with
Ophecks.

i have a couple of their albums, usually played during a
mellow mood. my favourite by them atm is "chalet lines", a
gorgeously depressing song

I have every album and every ep they've released. they're
great! saw them live in here in Stockholm a couple of months
ago (march I think). absolutely brilliant!

genre, heh... 'twee'...
