This reminds me of the Small Faces - the Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake era. (I'm obviously grandpa aged.)

The are a handful of songs by not so illustrious bands that are the meat and potatoes of the RP playlist and this is one of them.  I think Nik Kershaw's Wounded, and Siouxsie and the Banshee's Kiss Them For Me also fall in that category.

Colloquial for "gibt es". Can't say where in Germany this comes from, though. My guess would be Ruhrpott.

Turning my headphones up so loud, the people four offices over will complain.  

A solid 10 for me.

I think it's the way they open and close the guitar distortion. That, along with a steady beat and really cooool vocals, makes this song a hit with me.

I'm pretty sure from the same town (Portland OR), just a poor man's Dandy Warhols, and that ain't bad.

44 Down was released in 2002, not 2006.

The last post comparing this to My Bloody Valentine is from two years ago, so I'll re-iterate: Sounds a lot like My Bloody Valentine. Minus the vocals, it could almost be taken from Loveless (almost!).

Wow.  I just heard new music from Alannah Myles, and it knocked me out of my socks. GOOD stuff - it would fit perfectly here. I just love High Violets. But I adore Alannah Myles. Don't base your musical critique on "Black Velvet," because her new music transcends it (is that even possible?)

I hope this link works... Weapons

It would be great to follow this with something from Hawkwind!  Maybe Psychedelic Warlords or  Master of the Universe.

The lead vocal sounds a little like John Lennon in places.

Now that you mention it, this one would go rather well with "Rifles" or "Devil's Tattoo."

Just bumped this to a 9 - the more I hear it, the more I love it.  It sets such a good, smooth groove... {#Sunny}
