Still have the playlist from last time we did this saved on Spotify. Blimps Go 90 by Guided by Voices is the definitive best song on it.
Velocity Girl by Primal Scream ctrl+wtf
here’s a playlist i put together a while back
We need more posts by Cardiacs fans
^^^astonishingly lovely track from 2016
^^^American surrealist masterpiece from a few years back
My favourite sub-two-minute song ever is probably Berries by To Arms Etc, a completely unknown/forgotten London-based indie band whose founder member has been known to cast for bandmates on the DiS musicians page. It’s not on Youtube or Spotify so you’ll have to trust me that it’s incredible
That album is full of bangers under 2 minutes. I’d just use that instead of making a new playlist.
Oh bugger - that Berries song is actually 2:11. SORRY EVERYONE. Well, to Sea Nymphs go the spoils then, I guess
Couldn’t find a video of the album version. This one does it no justice
The Residents - Perfect Love
This Heat - Shrink Wrap
Tobacco - Street Trash
Frànçois and The Atlas Mountains new album has a track called Bête Morcelée which is under two mins and is fab.
No video for it though that I can find. Give it a whirl on Spotify.
