The funny thing is that despite the fact that someone mentioned "shitgaze" I've never seen these bands mentioned in the same breath together. TV Ghost and Pink Reason and Unholy Two and Psychedelic Horseshit (at the House of Pleasure) was one of my favorite shows this year. I wish that the Guinea Worms (and their new CDR 7") had made the cut, but they're neither young enough or "hip" enough, despite whatever playing with Tyvek has done for them.
This is why I live in Columbus, people. It's the best music scene in the country. There is a rich history of music (Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, Jim Shepard, Mike Rep) and there are a lot of young turks willing to get it together and put it up on stage (Vegetative States et fucking al). I can see my rock with my noise, so I can have my peanut butter and chocolate. Together!
