Wtf. I guess this is a windup but I’ve even tried talking to my mum about the honeycombs and she’s a child of the 60s and she’s just like “…um lady drummer?”

The National and i just don’t know why.

Total windup, yes. Yeah, not many people of my age have heard them. I learned about them though an anthology of feminist music criticism but had never heard of them before that.

Terrible cover but a great book. Would highly recommend it.

Yeah, The National.

Can’t find anything interesting about them. Everyone else fucking loves them.

The Beatles

You’d be amazed the number of people who wear their "i don’t like the national " badges with pride on here.

I mean what’s the deal with those guys? That Mike Stripe just mumbles his way through everything. Could you not write any proper lyrics??? Drives me insane.

…and then there’s that bassist who’s obviously a frustrated guitar player that couldn’t get a gig anywhere else. Just play the fucking root notes and get on with it man.
