What’s It Look Like When You’re Choking...
What’s It Look Like When You’re Choking?
The Tease “Ghost White Flowers” - I’d like to set this song up on a date with “Idioteque” by Radiohead. I think that they’d really hit it off. They could trade bunker decoration tips, and bond over conspiracy theories. She could tell him all about her gasmask and antibiotics collections, and he could offer her some evacuation advice. If everything continued to go well, maybe they’d get lucky and cower in a corner together for the rest of the night. It could be a beautiful thing. (The Tease are an unsigned band who do not have a proper website. If you’d like to get in touch with them, send them an email: TheTeaseMusic @ hotmail.com)
The Harvey Girls “The Monk And The Bug” - This song feels a bit too alert to qualify as being “hazy” or “dazed,” but it’s almost there. It’s kind of like being buzzed on caffeine when you’d really rather be sleeping in. This is the best song based around a keyboard harpsichord setting (correct me if I’m wrong…) that I’ve heard in a long time. (Click here to visit the Harvey Girls’ website.)

Decent song, but you simply must listen to “Quasi,” the modern masters of the use of a harpsichord in indierock. In fact, the co-singer/songwriter in that band one Sam Coomes, made an instrument called a “rocksichord,” its simply heaven. Drop me a line if you want a sample track. The last album they made “Hot Shit,” is among their best, but the album “field studies” is probably their most accessible album. It prominently features said rocksichord.
