ARTIST: Los Campesinos!
RATING: OOO1/2
hazim and the new asymptotes
hey. hazim here...again. Fuzzy wuzzy Los Campesinos! are back with their scuzzy buzzy guitar rock! They weren't gone for very long. The friendliest guitars this side of the galaxy get all jumbled up on their new album. If you want to call it that. Cus it's really really really short. But I like this song.
"He says he got his teeth fixed! I'm gonna break them!"
Haha. Love the snark. Love the bleeping siren thing going on in the background. Again. Love the snark!
They don't have the most unique sound out there, which will be dangerous for their life span. They'll need to work harder to maintain the pretty solid fan base they have now. The music's bright but the anit-romance lyrics scream louder. And scream it the band does. Wish I could see them live. Yeah, so get their new album. Cus it only took two weeks to make this album. It FEELS fast and furious but not rushed in the sense that they were doing it just to do it. But that they had so many ideas and wanted to get them out before they dissipated. Yeah? So get "We Are Doomed. We Are Beautiful". This song, the title track is one of my faves. it's on my MySpace profile page. The scruffiness. The negativity is positively charming. There's a reason why they have an exclamation mark at the end of their name...Hazim. Out.
