Well, my love affair with peanut butter has faded. Now i'm in love with this band that i discovered all by myself, with no one else telling me that they were cool. All i needed was the POWER OF THE INTERNET and the wonderful file sharing program Kazaa. The band is The Shins and while you can't see much from their website, they really rock. THey're kind of reminiscent of Yo La Tengo, equally good and i'm currently swooning to their alternative indie rock coolness.

While in the past my esteemed colleague Alf has eschewed Indie Rock for being too whiney, i personally am a big whiner and therefore can really identify with musicians who speak my language.

Now i must change my socks as they stink something fierce.
