Pants Yell!

12th of May has been a pretty eventful day in Chris' life, but one thing that will stand out is it was the day that after about a year of casual interest I finally fell for Pants Yell! Well I say I fell for Pants Yell! but so far it's really more of an obsession over one song, Two French Sisters.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who was always a little bit disappointed with Wyatt's Aisleirs Set songs, well this song seem to be everything I ever wish they were. Andrew's vocals (I'm pretty sure he's the singer) are so perfectly bored and emotional and I can't understand why I didn't recognise it only only a week ago. I'm not usually a fan of meta-indie but that moment where he goes "I was looking for a job", and then a whole The Smiths songs runs in my head is magic. Maybe it's because I keep thinking about how much I hate my job at the moment, though more likely because I've had Alex telling me how she loves them for the last few days. Why I keep thinking about the Aislers Set I don't know but the great John Peel quite about them (“If you were in one of your difficult moods you could argue that there are lots of bands making that kind of noise particularly in the United States of America. And you'd say well, why are Aislers Set better than any of the others and I'd have to say, well I don't know they just sort of are") seems to apply perfectly.

It's a been an eventfull day I spent from 4am to 6am walking past sleepy lambs trying to get home from ATP (me not the lambs), was over joyed to find a copy of Henrys Dress' 'Bust 'Em Green' at Flash Back and was unable to speak properly for most of the day but now listening to this song over and over again seems perfect.

So if you want to listen go here, in fact listen to the whole album. I'm sure you'll think it's no big deal. Right now I need to go to sleep, typo's and grammar errors can be fixed tomorrow. In fact this whole incredibly earnest post will be probably be deleted.

Of all the places I'd like to be it's in the room with no tv/ An open window and company
