Saw Dungen Saturday night at the Bowery Ballroom...very groovy. Lots of psychedelic groves and Black Sabbath guitars and Swedish lyrics. As my partner in Swedishness Aimee pointed out, the lead singer was like a crazy muppet. Plus, the dude was rocking out on the flute with wild-ass Robert Plant hair flying all over the place. Two thumbs way up for the Scandinavian freak rock.
First the good news: Chewbacca has finally attained U.S. citizenship.
Now the bad news: The new single from INXS Part Deux enjoyed the band's highest chart debut ever. This despite being fronted by some total ass they "won" on a reality show.
America. Such an enigma. We show such poor and limited taste... and then we grant citizenship to an 8-foot-tall Wookie with a laser crossbow. (Actually, he'll fit right in in Texas.)
**Worse news: American Analog Set is breaking up. Sucks.
