It's not just Pitchfork, their review is just a culmination of months of blog hyping, it's fucking ridiculous...

well then - I know one CD I won't be getting from emusic anytime soon...was going to check it out before I found this thread.

Haha nobody likes Vivian Girls huh? I think they're pretty good, reminds of that 'K Records' 80's stuff, like Beat Happening, All Girl Summer Fun Band, The Vaselines, of course its not for everyone.

They are overhyped though. I mean, they havent done anything the bands I mentioned havent already done. Still good to know bands are being influenced by the Shaggs however.

Listening to Crystal Stilts for the first time right now...fucking sweet surf/punk/drug music, although according to this thread I'm in the minority.

Yeah. If you haven't already, check out Wavves, judging by your fondness of these two I'm pretty sure you'd like him/them.

I have, in fact. If you haven't already check out Nodzzz, I actually prefer them to Wavves, as cool as their last album was.

I hate Wavves...

Hahaha oh, well in that case don't waste your time, although they're a lot cleaner and more 'violent femmes-y' than Wavves.

The Dazzled from the Crystal Stilts is like my favorite song right now. I love this shoegaze stuff.
