Magnet just released their list of the five most overrated and five most underrated bands in Britpop. While I take issue with the fact that they don’t like Elastica–because hello!, Elastica were kind of the greatest band ever–it’s nice to see the Auteurs and Longpigs getting recognition.
Gloomy Luke Haines of the Auteurs (and Black Box Recorder) recently published a memoir entitled Bad Vibes: Britpop And My Part In Its Downfall, though I haven’t read gotten to read it yet. Longpigs’ The Sun Is Often Out, meanwhile, is one of the only albums of that era I still listen to with any regularity. (Well, that and This Is Hardcore. And The It Girl. And Blur’s self-titled album, and also 13 if that counts. And once in a while I still put on International Velvet. And both Elastica albums. Okay, okay, so I guess I lied. And then there’s Rhino’s Brit Box, which I play sometimes too. But still. Longpigs=awesome.)
So, uh, one of my articles about prostitution in Rhode Island got linked to in this piece from ChristWire. I spent most of the later hours of last night trying to figure out whether ChristWire is real or not, and nobody I asked seems to be sure. However, Rhode Island is described as “a veiny little pouch of debauchery” that hangs like the “diseased genitalia of New England.” There seems to be a vague, uneasy theory that it’s an Onion-ish sort of thing, although really who can say? [Also, I feel like if it were satire it would be more popular. Only 19 Google Reader subscribers? I have more than that, for God's sake. Also, their ads appear to be real, and I doubt eHarmony and The Economist would be advertising on a lefty satire site. Right? On the other hand, none of their writers seem to exist anywhere else on the internet. I feel so dumb/insecure for not knowing. Holy Mother Night!]
Anyway, if you’re into laughing at racists, check out commenter JaniceFun, who, again, may or may not be real: (more…)
