From the Archive - DiS is 6! Our 66, part 2
I knew this was going to say this
Knob off.
..
so why look at it?
Not heard of knob off..may give them a listen
I know you are, you said you are
some what am I?
Why do Los Campesinos make people happy though? Just a personal opinion but they grate like hell on me.
Bearsuit, whoever said that I'm with you. I'll have Daft Punk, Chromeo and Cut Copy please.
Los Campesinos annoy me
I think I understand what it is they're trying to do with the whole post-ironic intentional twee thing, but there's something just too knowing about it.
Bearsuit, Jens Lekman, and Captain Beefheart would be my main contenders.
Delays
I know they're not cool, but fuck it - they sound like summer
That..
..was a pretty decent first album
BEARSUIT
the sound of joy encapsulated :)
and Screaming Tea Party.
Aw
I love bearsuit!!
Damn it, I forgot anout Bearsuit.
If my life were like a Bearsuit song, I reckon I'd be pretty damn sorted.
*about
yay!
hear our latest song 'Muscle Belt' and tell us what you think! We hope you like it...
www.myspace.com/bearsuit
xxx
it's the joyous sound
of a band being dragged by their ears towards the first plane back to Gatwick :p my opinion of Bearsuit rocketed even more when I heard about that...
3 smileys
hercules and love affair
jens lekman
lykke li
i went to see Lykki Li
t'other night, she was actually better than I expected. the songs had a bit more dynamic than on the record, and she kept doing this amusing squat dance.
I loved her.
summer :-)

i always smile when listening to oracle, black one or white one just because they are so absurdly pretentious and audacious. its very difficult to take seriously for me. i do love them though
At the moment, mostly Misty's Big Adventure.
Super Furries, always.
Supergrass.
The Bluetones.
Sod it, probably most popular '90s indie.
Gallows live
