oh, dear.  i just can't take this.  just as lesley jo
will fiercly come to the defense of her beloved
isobel, i feel i can no longer keep quiet at the abuse
that Electronic Renaissance is taking.  what is wrong
with you popkids?  can't you appreciate the pure
synthesized beauty?  the petshopboys-ness of it?  the
way struan's silvery vocals cut and shimmer and echo
through layers of pure dance beats?  sheesh!  i cue my
tape up so that E.R. is the first song when i go for a
drive...  *sigh*  i suppose i can't convince you
all...

anyway, i have not received my tigermilk yet.  ordered
it from jeepsta, i did.  even though i knew it'd be
quicker to buy it at tower or some such corporate
monster here in newyork...  i like foreign post!  but
i will never give up my crappy tape -- first off, it
has catpower and the sonora pine on the second side. 
also, what if i don't like tigermilk when i can
actually hear the music?  you know, something like, "i
liked the state i am in better when i thought there
was no guitar for the first half"....  

ah, and speaking of the gentle waves -- and i Was, so
there! -- i finally heard it, thanks to kimmy (kiss
kiss, darling!).  and, as i have been telling all who
care to listen, they are indeed gentle and wavy. 
standouts are the first track (hangman something or
other), weathershow, and that mathiew song.  but jeez
-- if i'd heard the weathershow single and then bought
the album, i'd be kind of weirded out.  like, i was
sort of napping on the train to work yesterday,
listening to the album, all tree lullabyes and such --
and boom!  jarred awake by weathershow.  messed with
my head quite a bit.


okay, you lot.  i'm being firm:  no more ragging on
Electronic Renaissance, a'ight?  or i'll come get
sinister on ya...


xoxo,
marie, in ohio in spirit, and still looperticket-less.
