Tracey Thorn is set to release her new album 'Love And Its Opposite' on 17th May, 2010 on Strange Feeling Records . "When I was young, I imagined middle age to be a kind of comfort zone, but in fact, having got here, I now feel it's more of a war zone. The songs are where I dump all that shit so that I can get on with my life without jumping off a bridge." This is the thought that leads Tracey Thorn into the starkly [...]

Marine Girls: Honey Sunny Summer Day: Something in Your Eyes The Subways: No Goodbyes The fire in leaf and grass so green it seems each summer the last summer. The wind blowing, the leaves shivering in the sun, each day the last day. A red salamander so cold and so easy to catch, dreamily moves his delicate feet and long tail. I hold my hand [...]

Finally(!) in this first week of day-related songs - a short (even shorter, lyrically), almost sombre story of staying at home on 'another Friday evening'.

Artist: Marine Girls Album: Beach Party Release: 1981 Label: Whaam! I've been listening to True Norwegian Black Metal all day. It's good for my work productivity. Now that I only have 1 more hour to go, I've switched to the Marine Girls. Words can not express the flying joy pumping through my head phones right now. They've influenced me more so than any other band. Fey stripped down indie pop girl bliss. Weak yet strong. Or something.

In 1981 or 2, an avid record collector friend gave me an album he'd somehow ended up with two copies of - Beach Party by the Marine Girls ; it must be one of the most played lp's I have. A simply-recorded, ultra lo-fi joy, there are 16 short songs about love, boys and girls, and the sea. Tracey Thorn & Alice Fox provide the charming vocals & guitar...Alice's sister Jane plays bass. Tracey recorded a solo album - Distant Shore in 1982, & after the Marine girls split in '83, found [...]
The Pains of Being Pure At Heart: "Everything With You" [Slumberland; 2009] New T.P.O.B... video on Pitchfork.tv . Welcome to the digital age, Pitchfork. Say hi. I don't care for this video much. There is this underlying sexual tension throughout the whole bit // Like, just get drunk and experiment already. You girls then can just peacefully go on pretending you aren't sexually attracted to boobs and box the rest of your lives but whole-heartedly punctuate the World's 2nd favorite phrase: "Been there... done that." (1st one being, "I told you so") [...]
