Pretty good article, I'd say.
"OOOHHH BOY! Let's go down to that music festival
and listen to dat der bango
and those young'ns sure do know how to write'em
just like they used to back when granpappy still had the farm
back when we used to have those slaves
and the blacks treated the whites like they massuhs
when Coca Cola still had that cocaine in it
and the buffalo hadn't gone home
HEY
HO"

Pretty great article
I was shocked I'd heard a band thanks to a TV ad campaign before a blog. And now I why.
I think it's the combination of twatty hats, braces and white t-shirts that do it for me.
Urgh.
lovely stuff
Footstomp, kick drum, CLAP, mandolin strum, YEAAAAAAAAAAh
repeat for 3.5 minutes.
Obv needs way more cowbell.
Guys the were people rushing away from the Pyramid stage in 2011 in order to see Mumford & Son
instead of WU Tang Clan, fucking idiots, the lot of them
+ they all looked like twats
+ they caused horrible traffic, traffic full of twats
yerp
suspenders and belt
There is so, SO little difference between this
and some of the gash that gets championed on here and Pitchfork and their ilk sometimes. Even the clothes are the same. The Arcade Fire dressed like this back when they were at their most beloved.
yeah but The Arcade Fire were rubbish until The Suburbs
I have less and less time for people who say:
"This band sound shit, just look at them"
Beacause I am a badass.
I work for E.on
And I was sick of it the day we launched the campaign internally (about two weeks before public release), after we had to listen to it nonstop for about an hour.
Then they put it on internal AND external hold music.
Needless to say management think it is the coolest thing ever AND I FUCKING HATE THEM FOR IT.
you guys have excellent customer service
but i really resent you putting me threw the hold music, at least be like virgin and slam on mmmbop or something
I find his writing style almost more annoying
Why can't he drop the schtick and just ... write?
