Ha! I have a fukkin
massive softspot for Gogol Bordello and that has always been one of my faves of theirs :D
Not sure about that second one though. Maybe if I was in the right mood cos it sounds sunny and chirpy (which I tend to like) but didn't do it for me just now.
As for Grinderman, is basically essential listening. Nick Cave rawkin his fukkin nads off with one of the greatest backing bands ever? If you don't listen and

you have either no ears or no soul. Or are just actually shit. As a person. And should probably kill yourself before somebody else does us all the favour. Too harsh? Fuck you.
One more belter afore I leave (briefly to shops for essential supplies). Yes it is more Yo La Tengo. Yes I've posted it a gazillion times before. But never wiv embedded vidz which is reason enough to repost (should I even pretend to need reason) cos is one of the finest git-arse-cyst performances I have ever witnessed (and performed - to actual perfection - onna rooftop just as the sun sets mid tune - it really doesn't get any better). Y'all wot like a strum. Y'all that like a lil fretwanking (am looking
hard at you Dan, Myshkin, Pagey - and Ben (at times)

) need to watch and learn.
This is how you fretwank. And for the rest of y'all: this is how a git-argh should sound
