Up Against the Legends is a damn fun record!

[Davey]

And I think Pitchfork even liked it

Definitely got a low fidelity sound (and that means crappy, not lo-fi ) but no biggie. That's all for now. Party on.....

[Jim Clark]

Well if Davey and the Pitchfork both like it, it must be good. How can I make sure Finch sees this post???

Well, it is good, but I should say that it's not a total rave from me. Some of it's a blast and some of it's kinda forgettable, but overall I do really like it. Probably won't be near the top of my year end list but if you like that [now] somewhat mainstream retro sound of bands like the Vines and Strokes, this is more of the same but a little more interesting at the same time because of the Jesus and Mary Chain influence like on the BRMC debut. I also wanna hear the debuts from the Futureheads and the Earlies. Lots of good bands breaking out this year!

hehe, tried to slide one by you. I ought to know better by now. Fun doesn't equal good. I did in fact realize that at the time, but thought maybe this one time...

Of course it is very good. Some day you'll read a trendy review and realize it for yourself! (just funning ya of course).

You dorkus! You can't even take a sideways compliment, can you!?

Hehehe, I made a new post about it over at obner.org because this is a serious grower and I'm digging it even a bunch more now, but that site seems to be down right now so I can't post a link for those not yet obnerized like you and me and Stone

That "other place" really hasn't grown on me. What it boils down to is that it seems to be downright immature. Could be I'm just being my regular old stick in the mud self but a lot of what I've read there really turns me off. It certainly travels at the speed of light compared to this place though!

For me, it's the hand claps that make the Legends fun.

Indie pop has life again with the upbeat melodies and fuzzy guitars of this group.

A big "thank you" to the person on this board (you most definitely know who you are), who introduced me to them.

Dang good fun,
Bill
