" Collective" : Elephant 6

5
The one time I heard In the Aeroplane Over the Sea I nearly had an allergic reaction, I hated it so much. While I was in a bad mood and while I was in general falling apart at that time about a year ago, it couldn't have been just me. It was dogshit. High school horns and some wimpy, overemoting twat warbling like he just had a sparrow stuck in his throat. Hideous.

All I know from the Apples in Stereo (what an awful name) is something they did for the Powerpuff Girls. It was formula power-pop. Nothing special.

Plus, one of their bands is actually named Dressy Bessy. I mean...come on. You have got to be kidding me.

Crap on Elephant 6, although I hear that The Olivia Tremor Control and Of Montreal are good bands. On this evidence, though, I don't know if I want to do the research.

Cool site layout though. Nice '67 San Francisco feel.
Life...life...I know it's got its ups and downs.

NOT CRAP for The Minders, Apples In Stereo, Olivia Tremor Control, and The Gerbils.

HUGE WAFFLE FACTOR for Neutral Milk Hotel.

I completely agree. I don't get the hype about Aeroplane.
That dog won't hunt, monsignor.

You heard that, did you?


Have I been misinformed, Ringo?

Let me predicate this by saying that my taste is weird, and that I have friends in both bands.

However, based on your objections stated above, I think you may find that there is more of the same with OTC and that Of Montreal is (to me) the musical equivalent of Capri Pants on guys.

By the way, "high school horns" is a phrase that exactly captures my aversion to what is wrong with so much indie pop.
