Grandpa, tell me about the Iran vs. New Zealand World Cup match again
Spending a quiet Sunday night on 16 Lovers Lane. The band thanks The Byrds on the liner notes, and sure some sonic connections exist. But this album has acres more heart and passion than anything McGuinn & Co. ever produced. #TheGo-Batweens
A billion gazillion super computers running AGI could never produce anything remotely like an Aldous Harding album. Happy release day to those who celebrate!
Fascinating short doc covers the transition from The Enemy ➡️ Toy Love ➡️ Tall Dwarfs … basically the birth of NZ Indie as inspired by the singular demented genius of Chris Knox.
Now playing: the Flying Nun (FN 057) debut EP from the Jean Paul Sartre Experience. Dreamy, snarky psychedelic pop from Christchurch that sounds like sunlight through drawn curtains.

Now playing — Felt: Crumbling the Antiseptic Beauty (1982). Lawrence wanted to make 10 great albums in 10 years. It all started with this decaying temple of minimalism. Two guitars (maximum jangle), drums (no cymbals), bass (occasionally).
Now playing: CD-era Verlaines classic finally pressed to vinyl thanks to Schoolkids Records.
