for some reason i had always strayed away from somebody still loves you boris yeltsin and the only reason i can give is that their name turned me off. not sure what i was expecting, but it sure has hell wasnt jangly pop. their new record pershing is simply just a great pop record that if you are fan of fountains of wayne, beulah, apples in stereo, etc will definitely dig these lads.

if for some reason you the slap in the face sounds of drive like jehu have never graced your ears, here are the two first tracks from their classic yank crime. from the ashes of jehu came the likes of rocket from the crypt and hot snakes, but spawned countless intimidators along the way.

wanna thank the fine folks at the scott ford radio board for hooking me up with these black rider demos. for those who dont know, the black rider is a “musical fable” in the form of a theatre production created by tom waits. in terms of sheer creepiness i would give these demos a pretty solid 7, only slightly less apocalyptic than bone machine.
