Tried to listen but somethings up, so I went to The MySpcae site and got three of em there. Good Stuff. Like The Streets on Lysergic Acid.

Good luck with the blog, Simon.

Indeed. Took me a good ten minutes.

It should have read “the Los Campesinos! version is too fast by comparison.” ;)

I will consider your proposal. After all, setting up a blog requires effort.

“slow by comparison”.. I didn’t say it wasn’t correct!
No, contribute here instead. My readers love the silence. The proof is in how my traffic goes up when I don’t post..

The Pavement one isn’t slow, thats the correct speed :)

I might start my own blog. I won’t have to post much, considering I hate everything. I might call it “Covered in Coma”

My first post will be about 4′33″ by John Cage. Four and a half minutes of silence..

I didn’t think it sounded that different to the Pavement one time wise when I first heard it, but I’m playing the Pavement one now and I’m surprised at how slow it seems by comparison.
I’m quite proud to have put up something you actually liked though. Impressive for someone who hates everything.

I guess I’m just a miserable old git, but Frontwards sounds too fast. The lyrics are wrong for that sort of treatment. Malkmus would be spinning in his grave.

I like the other stuff though.

That’s quite a result, considering I hate all music now.

Yes, I know I just contradicted myself.
