I guess I need to check out that new Wire again. I hated it when I first heard it, mostly b/c John Howard had just played me a DVD of a live show of theirs from 2004 where they were really gritty and noisy, and this album just seems wimpy and boring in comparison. But I've heard from a bunch of people like yrself that I trust that it's really good. So I need to re-approach it...
I think you're gonna dig the new Rosebuds and Atlas Sound, btw. Also have you heard Cut Copy? I don't love it, but it's not bad for 80's ripping, and seems up yr alley somewhat...http://www.myspace.com/cutcopy
I'll hafta check out the Rosebuds and Atlas Sound. I really didn't like the last Rosebuds, though I loved the first one. As for Cut Copy, I can't really stand that. I know it seems unlikely, but I'm quite picky about my 80's throwbacks. First of all, so much of it sucked at the time anyway. There's too many bands grabbing anything they can from that decade without any sensible editing. Just wait till my diatribe on 80's fashion in SF...sheesh!
