It sounds like its influences: The Replacements, The Pixies, Pavement, and, to a certain degree, early Spoon. And it’s really good.

How have I still not heard the Tapes n Tapes record?

wow, i've not heard about half of those records, and for almost all that i have heard, i didn't like them. not only that, i think i violently disagree with nearly every review I read in that feature. this must be why i no longer read CMG regularly...

it's odd, for as much as i slammed this feature, the podcasts they produced for it are actually very good. perhaps i may have to rethink some of my opinions.

Todosantos aeropuerto highly recommended for anybody who likes The Notwist... apparently democratic socialism is good for alt rock... another great venezuelan band Telegrama for those who think the cure married to sonic youth sung is spanish is interesting...

Herbert... I did it again, bought it because I was seduced by the reviews... god I hate this

Digging those Todosantos songs. Do you have a link to any Telegrama stuff?
