yeah - i agree...i recorded the song ("iceblink luck") of wfmu earlier
this evening (all jerseyites listening - it was my fault). my initial
reaction was "god, sounds like chryssie hynde joined the sundays and fused
themselves into liz, simon and robin". but seriously, i can hear those
sounds in there while it is still the twins. very similar to the sound
on _blue bell knoll_, and yeah, commerical in a nice sorta way. with a
video, pomo emptv will eat it up...which is kinda strange. in a neat 
kind of way. 

album comes out sept 17th on capitol records...and they touring in
november!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(happy)
