Hec, are you familiar with Bis? They're a Scottish indie pop band from the late nineties that I think you'd dig. I heard "Tell It to the Kids" many years ago, and it stuck with me such that I collected more Bis songs over time, but I picked up their first CD,
The New Transistor Heroes,
at Half-Price on Saturday, and it is fun TO THE MAX. Look at the video for "Sweet Shop Avengerz"! Listen to "Popstar Kill"! In conclusion, they have a song called "Dinosaur Germs."
They also did the Powerpuff Girls End Theme Song.

Ah. I knew I had heard of Bis somewhere....
Ooh. eMusic has
The New Transistor Heroes
- I'll have to get that....
Hec, are you familiar with Bis?
Yep, "Action and Drama" is probably my favorite song by them. I put it on my
Pop Treats - All Sorts
mix between Shampoo and Vitamin C.
I always liked Sweat Shop Avengers. Unfortunately, I saw them play live in 1998 and they were terrible! Kinda soured me on them for a long time.
Aw, that's awesome. Also, a really good album and a really sweet car.
Yeah. If only Neko Case came with the car....
(Usually if I see a picture of a sexy woman posing with a cool car, I want the car more... but not in this case.)
Neko is gorgeously lush, it's true. And her voice is one of my favorites.
Trish Keenan of Broadcast passed away earlier today from complications with pneumonia after battling the illness for two weeks in intensive care. [link]
Broadcast were a rare band that managed to combine artsy electronics and pop melodies in just the right proportions.
I like the one song I have by them, "Before We Begin." That's really sad.
