I don't know enough about the J. Geils Band to know if they were any different before Love Stinks and Centerfold and stuff basically turned them into The Tubes or if they were always basically The Tubes. But I'm not sure I have the strength to find out

If Paddy McAloon knew about Pajama Sam in 1996 he would have written a musical adaptation of it because that's a very Paddy McAloon thing to do. We could have had the Prefab Sprout Pajama Sam record

New thesis: Rattus Norvegicus is the misogynist Stranglers album, No More Heroes is the racist Stranglers album, and all the other Stranglers albums, but especially The Meninblack, are increasingly the funniest Stranglers albums (except for Aural Sculpture, the dumbest Stranglers album)

Yesterday (w/help from my friend Jon) I made a hilariously truncated edit of one of the songs on my upcoming album (4:54→1:33) partly as an experiment to get a FLAC under 10mb and partly to turn it into Elvis Costello's Welcome to the Working Week and I'm seriously considering putting it out as a 7"

As we know, the moral of the Steely Dan story is that true perfectionism is futile, but the pursuit of it is one of the most compellingly human things imaginable. Also, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were insufferable jazz dorks and massive nerds (endearingly). This is why everyone loves Steely Dan

Just here to say that the next Monsieur Herr album is basically done and it's either going to be the best thing I've ever put out or the worst thing I've ever put out. Make of this what you will

Considering the idea that Television and Neil Young/Crazy Horse are the platonic ideal of two guitars/bass/drums rock groups for when you secretly wish you were jazz and when you want to hang out and make a lot of noise and see what happens, respectively
