(West)

Sometimes I think of Germany (West) as the quintessential nineteen-eighties country.


The economy. Soccer. Cold War. Music. Cars. Germany seemed so amazing.

It's very hard for me to explain. Although I just tried.

Scandinavia Always Delivers

I'm very happy with the current landscape of pop music.


But sometimes you just need to relive the pop of the early nineties.

Ass Out of U and Me

For years I assumed Pop Will Eat Itself would sound like Orbital. My assumption was that they were a purely electronic act.


They aren't. I have no idea why I would have thought that.

Trans

I had always wanted to see the film. Although I had no real interest in seeing it on stage.


I came across it one night thanks to the wonderful IFC.

I bought the soundtrack mid-showing through my phone.

Just the kind of camp I need in my life.

It's really quite good. If that's your sort of thing.

Fitting

"Fat Neck" is a fitting name for a track. Since Shaun Ryder took on the appearance of late-era Brando during his time with Black Grape.
