We all know the second Close Lobsters album is not as great as Foxheads Stalk This Land, but it does have a few pearls. Like this song, on which they almost do their Paisley background justice, if you know what I mean! They were actually from Paisley you know, unlike any of the so-called Paisley Underground bands. That was purely an American phenomenon - and mostly limited to California. Headache Rhetoric came out in 1989, and just like its predecessor it was recorded at The Royal Leamington Spa.
This was a combined blog and radio show about POP! music. I started the blog when I moved to Glasgow and it ran during my stay there. We broadcast weekly from Glasgow University's Subcity.org. The shows are catalogued as SPLASHes, and you can still listen to all of them. There are also some rare or hard-to-find indiepop gems for download, and these are labelled DROP. Have fun while it lasts!
or any encouraging words you might have, can be sent to this address. But it'll be a whole lot easier to just leave a comment! I won't check the mail too often. If you've got more general ponderings, such as "what's all this pop stuff about anyway?", your questions might be answered by the manifesto I wrote some time ago, for better or worse.
