hello listees. i'm tickled pink that so many of you are coming to
visit us here in new york this weekend. who needs some band when you
can have girls-nights-out on a lovely friday? i'm just kidding of
course. unless i'm not.
to help sustain you till sunday evening, here's a recommendation for
b&s from an unexpected publication -- mademoiselle magazine, women's
trash central.
SPICE UP YOUR CDWARDROBE
POP: [desk-centric photo] THE UPDATE [as opposed to the pop
standard wild orchid's OXYGEN] Belle & Sebastian's TBWTAS. Their
name suggests a duo but b&s are actually a scotish octet. Pretty
boy-girl vocals, gentle horns and keyboards appeal to pop fans, but
the offbeat lyrics and somewhat lo-fi recording are absolutely
indie.
the "pop till you drop" nature of this cd is indicated by the pair of
fuzzy pink slippers at the top of the page. so let's all get out
there, popkids, and spice things up with b&s. sadly, the pink
slippers clash with my droopy cardigan, so i'll have to narrow down my
pop persona.
