Was listening to A Promise earlier today at work on a whim and wondered whether there was any Owen connection. Of course there is! I'm not at all surprised that it's his favorite album. "Campy self-evisceration" is a good way to describe the genre a some of my favorite artists (Owen, Parenthetical Girls, etc) fall into. And is also quite an apt 2-word summary of Heartland.
Nice to see that Moondog LP peeking out. I'd bet that had a minor role in influencing Spectrum 14th century and Heartland. It probably sits comfy enough next to A Promise :).
it's weird having Owen and Jarvis being 2/5 of my favourite lyricists... never heard him mention pulp before... wonder what he thinks of Neil Hannon...
i love that this is his favorite album. Epic. I'd love to see him cover a few XiuXiu, particular Apistat Commander and/or Suha.
DO IT!
What about a collab?
@@DavidMGiles they have collaborated!! check out ‘I Dream Of Someone Else Entirely’ from OH NO!
Does anybody else find it adorable that he arranges his books in a rainbow?
I find it adorable how his favorite album is Xiu Xiu A Promise
and now he's featured on the new xiu xiu album!! that's gotta be a really cool experience

I love that people out there still associate FTW with "fuck the world" and don't always assume it means "for the win".
I assocciate it with "fuck the what" XD, because it's WTF backwards
that was brilliant. He explains shit so well
whats the song in the bg?
cool ideas on non-capital music production
