She was the drummer with the Velvet Underground.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Jilli will be happy to hear that I bought Placebo's Without You I'm Nothing. I'm listening to it now. Track 3 is ending. Why the hell did I not get this until now? Shit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in the record store buying TNoTBiTH, they were playing something cool-sounding from Blond Redhead. I'd never heard of them before. Anybody like them?
eta: I've finally jumped on the Snow Patrol bandwagon (thanks to P-C and cathy). I listened to Final Straw twice and I was kinda meh. Then two weeks after I had last listened to it, iTunes randomly played a few songs from it. I was all "This is really good - who is it?" So I guess I needed three listens plus some time for it to seep into the cracks in my brain before I could fall for it....

Yes! Mr. H picked it up a while ago. I liked it, but I haven't come across it lately. I'm awful at describing music, or I'd tell you what they were reminicent of.

I think that happened to me as well. There were a few songs (the ones that struck me enough to buy it in the first place) which I loved initially, but it did take a few listens to really seep in, and after that, I couldn't stop listening to the fucking thing.

One song runs into the next, never really changing course or temperament.
I would disagree with the last part of that sentence, but I liked them running one into the other. Reminded me of an epic poem or something.
The once powerful beats of drummer Simone Pace are now lost in the muddle of swirling strings and the squeaky, seal-like cries of Makino.
I'd never heard anything else by them, so I'll take her word for it that this one wasn't their best, but again, I did like it.

Hey, Tommyrot, your tag is the word for the day.
Yeah, it's been mentioned in Natter. Then I ran to Bitches and announced it there.
I feel like I've been given an extra birthday....

Heather, I don't have a dog in that fight. I've only heard a couple of songs here and there. Allison is a Chicago-area DJ and felt pretty strongly about it.

Me neither really, hayden. They're not a band I care about one way or the other, though I do like that cd. It's interesting to me that the things she didn't like about it were some of the things I did, and that she'd heard other albums by them.
I know that dramatic style changes by familiar bands seems to make people either hate the new album or applaud the band for doing something new.
