'ha', you say, 'why's he posting about single of the week when b&s don't have a single out? the bastard's obviously off topic, let's get him...' ("he's bringing love, let's break his legs..." - the simpsons) turns out that v-twin have single of the week in the NME this week. even stranger is that it's single of the week in the 'vibes' section, the dance / techno bits up there with the likes of panacea and morcheeba. it's called 'dark tourism' and is on the consistantly wonderful series 500 label (an offshoot of domino. last release i know of was the future pilot aka vs the pastels thing 'hurrican fighter pilot' which was ace). "'dark tourism' is a strange and lovely thing, a sombre waltz through a blue-black mood" snowpatrol lp gets an 8 somewhere as well rude and sometimes authoritarian, andy the new kid loco single is ace too and has katrina pastel singing on it (i think, er, begbie mentioned this a while ago. and someone else, someone probably a lot cuter). i only bought the lp after a recommendation by JJ (and because it was cheap in the local shop the saturday after he mentioned it) and that's great, the katrina single being the best thing on there. actually, kid loco's in the nme as well this week, slagging off air. speaking of begbie... he was asking when quickspace happy song #2 was out and, well, i've had a copy of the precious little cd single (which includes it and the previous (dire) single 'hadid') for a while now (a month or so?). new lp ('precious falling') out shortly... pictures of the hamster-faced one from the audience in this weeks music press: melody maker - 4 nme - 5 (includes 2 in an advert but are generally bigger so...) dexter's lab is cool too.
