I'm Kind of Stuck, So Bear With Me
Don't get me wrong. Sometimes it's really a good thing when a song gets lodged in your brain, as it keeps you company and helps you process your thoughts and emotions. But sometimes it's not.
Tell you what. You listen to the scratchy guitars as they rip into their rhythm and you let his voice work its way into your psyche, and then you try to stop listening. I think you'll see what I mean.
Cassettes Won't Listen--"Where Did Go" mp3 off their upcoming album? I don't know, I can't seem to find out for sure. "Slap my hand and kiss me twice" and let me know if you have any idea.
Watch the video for it here. It's pretty cool. Has anybody ever seen them live? They did a show with Beat Radio in Brooklyn last month, and just had a gig at the Mercury Lounge in NYC on the 6th. No word on any upcoming shows, though. Check out the Dope Lotus Records site for a few more goodies and a little more information.
And yeah, don't worry, I'm working on my lists. My best-ofs, most favorites, wonderfulist wonderfuls of 2006. All in good time, people, in good time.
I was struggling with this same thing a bit ago as I was getting into the
"band". Actually CWL is just one person, I alwyas thought it was a band
but I saw on gorilla vs. bear that its one person, jason drake. also,
where did go is a great song, I heard that its going to be on cwl's next
album which is coming out mid next year. the live show is him on
turntables and guitar and synthesizers. the mercury lounge was the first
time i saw him and it was great, although i think a bit more
instrumentation would have helped. hope you get your mind back :)
christy--i always get confused by bands with only one person. i thought
maybe it was just one guy, but i wasn't sure. thanks for sharing what his
show is like. i would like to see him but i hardly ever get into new york
for shows. and yeah, i'm hoping my mind returns to where it's supposed to
be, too. : )
y'know, i've gotten dozens of pr mails about this guy, but I never did
listen. Should i?
duh! oh, i kid. but yes, you should. he's got this incredible knack for
remixing, too, which i've written about before. i think he's going to go
places. : )
Yes! More Cassettes Won't Listen!
Er, they/he are indeed good, but am I alone in thinking the name is rather
clumsy??
*Edit*
andy--glad you're enjoying them. him? it's all so confusing!
Ooh, can I be in your band?? I'll...um...er...freaky dance like Bez from
Happy Mondays? Gurn around like Flavor Flav?? I know, I'll play the
cowbell...
