loads of good bands have been on skins

and skins is a good program (I think I end up defending it each week I should just give up)

I saw this

and almost cried, both because the song is heartbreaking and because I couldn't believe what was happening. Someone on the Skins team really is taking the piss. Asobi Seksu and Grizzly Bear were on another episode, and Atlas was pointlessly used for about 3 seconds.

Lame.

skins is wierd

its strangley addictive, the music is the only consistently good bit about it.

The acting is obviously shit, the plots and storylines are mainly horribly obvious and predictable with a fairly good idea now and again.

So much cringeworthiness though.

I know this really isn't worth my time, but i still find myself watching it every single week!

Is foul play at work here?

can't stand this cliched teenage soap opera

but fair play for giving time to superb and otherwise neglected indie artists.

its mad!

I've only seen two episodes, and on those two I've noticed

a) Low
b) Stars of the Lid

Possibly the two most unlikely candidates to soundtrack a vaguely-hipster teen drama... a bit surreal...

just thought...

how good would it be if Low did a house party appearance a la Foals...
