Mew - 156

Well fuck it, i'm just going to use this page as a method of self-fellatio and to keep all of the videos i like in one convenient spot.

There are probably 35 pertinent things to say about Mew, but i'll try to limit myself. First of all, if you combined all of their best material it would be the greatest album ever recorded by man or woman. I can probably only narrow down my favorite song to 6 different options. This shit is so dreamy. And...they have the added bonus of saying 'Thank you Chicago!' to a crowd of 25-30 people at St. Andrews in April '07. The show was still incredible. The singer looks like a timid schoolboy who's still dressed by his mom. He held the mic to his face the whole time and kept his other arm rigid at his side. He didn't speak once the whole time. It was the Matt Dillon in There's Something About Mary-looking guitar player with the Chicago shout-out.

This video has the huge advantage of being the funniest thing i've ever seen in my life. Please enjoy it.

My Bloody Valentine - Only Shallow

Alright, so we've all obviously heard the hype about the album Loveless "greatest album ever written", "more beautiful than Dave Emmons" etc. I never really understood the hype until right now. I just listened to the song Only Shallow about 10 times in a row. This song is so fucking cool. Oh man. I'm overwhelmed right now.
