seems to be you'll either like it or hate it, I might give them a spin

nlgbbbblth, you are the Jon Snow of indie

I'm going to keep looking for more and more obscure bands to test you with

i would recommend not the Swell Maps, but Swell

especially some of their first albums :

41
too many days without thinking

the drumming is great, very simple but also unique and a treat to listen to.

can't help you with the swell maps thing though...sorry.

i've got one swell maps ep from years back, bout 5 songs on it. all good and garagey. s'all i have buh.

meself and niall mc guirk saw Epic Soundtracks (who was in them, drummer??) play a free gig in toronto about 8 years ago. it was fucking hilariously bad, but good too in the southside way! we left early. then he died a few years later.
there was no connection to us leaving established.

see if john dee can get you there stuff in his new shop?

ha ha ha, you little charmer you... always with the smooth talking

anyhow I actually saw you in the street there last weekend, I was going to say "hello prick" but the Avril Laverne tape I was listening to was getting to a really good bit (where she goes "HE WAS A GIRL I WAS A GUY YEAH YEAH FUCKING YEAH!!) and I didn't want to miss it... also you seemed in a hurry...

we're always in such a hurry these days

where is John Dee's new shop anyhow?

City Disks it's called. It's down beside the Musick Centre. It has the DEADLIEST second hand section ever at the moment. Holy crap is it good. Small but perfectly formed, and cheap to boot. You could get rid of a couple of hundred lids there easy, and still be pissed off at the stuff you had to leave behind.

my poor bank account

I've been considering lately getting my wages lodged directly to Tower, Road and Final Vinyl... save me having to bring all of it to them in bits and pieces like I do now

on three occasions since Christmas I have tried to buy an LP in Final Vinyl only to be told that the record *cannot* be found
, is *misfiled* etc
So I leave disillusioned and disappointed at their disorganisation
