switzerland-e6!

ooh i haven’t listened to this one in ages but its probably the e6 one I can return to most often!

Favourite Track: “Germans in Mexico” bc “¡Vaya con dios, amigos!” still gets in my head. (Runner-up: Night Vision & Rubber Rocket)

Least Favourite Track: A bit obvious, but “Chocolate Pope” - Germans would’ve made suuch a nice ending to it but they had to go the novelty route

Underrated track: I’m not super aware of the crazies’ opinions on the tracks but I feel like I’ve never seen “Pulling the Plug on the Party” get its due credit. “Something Wrong With Us” too 

Overrated Track: I guess “I Buy the Drugs” by virtue of it being the “single” of the album - not quite as great as the others but certainly ages well in every setlist. 

Thank you!! (prompt)

4,14,37,44

4: if you could be an embodiment of any band, which band would it be?what an odd question! bands generally have people in them to embody them already. i guess its not really how i see music. i suppose lately id like to be the embodiment of The Beach Boys, except w/ less mike love

14: favorite song in terms of lyrics? Pretty much every lyric on Distant Plastic Trees / The Wayward Bus by The Magnetic Fields makes me cri, and it feels arbitrary to pick a song from either album, but i’d go with Jeremy. Fav is “the house we bought was really a lake”

37: favorite album cover art? i was trying to think of a funny or cute one but honestly the first thing that came to mind was Grimes’s Art Angels - really iconic already. it’s rare that I need to own something on vinyl nowadays but there we go, and the art inserts are rly good too

44: you’re hosting a music festival, choose 10 headlining artists: uhm i guess this can be p. much read as just 10 artists i would really like to see in my lifetime. in which case: 

kate bush

sophie

ag cook

naomi elizabeth

nicki minaj

helen love

janet jackson

kyary pamyu pamyu

bjork

joanna newsom (ive already seen these last two, jnew twice, but theyre good bets so im going for them again)

although in fact now that i’ve posted this i reckon i could do a top 10 with ones i’ve seen that would also slay festivals. oh well

thank you!!!
