Blog-achella 08: Visit Fullerton!

Continuing with the chaff-cutting, it's now time to tell Animal Collective to suck it hard. I reviewed them two years ago, the last time they played the 'Chella, and found them to be a big steaming pot of suck. Weirdness can be good, but weirdness taken to the point of not making any friggin' musical sense at all, I can do without. Naturally the Indie Kids love 'em, and the Indie Kids can suck it, too.

Don't worry, by the way, I'm not going to skip over too many bands, just the truly shitty ones... to wit...

Cold War Kids



Who they are: A band from Fullerton, CA... which, if you've never been there, you're not missing anything...

What they sound like:
Perfectly serviceable Indie Rock, dude even sounds a little like Thom Yorke once in a while, though not so much on this one... and you know, since they're from Fullerton, I'm sure they vacationed every dang time they had a chance...

Cold War Kids - We Used To Vacation (ysi)




What I think:
Nothing terribly wrong with that, but nothing terribly interesting either... their big steaming pot turns out to be full of "meh". Fullerton Rocks!
