cant stop looting the lobes since i stumbled upon these fellas......i would take these 2 fellas over 80% of today's indie/experimental scene for fucking certain. hippies are fine, just fine and themselves, where as hipsters.........gayyyyyyy.
To belabor the point, record sales only indicate that the marketing and peer pressure were successful. The critics often scoff at popular bands and prefer the more unknown acts. Many artists, in all realms of culture, are hated or ignored during their lifetimes. I generally detest the Oscar winning films and Grammy winning artists. Give me innovation, pioneers, creative geniuses that the masses are slow to recognize. You can keep all your Britney Spears, Justin Biebers, and Foo Fighters.
"record sales are an eternal measurement of musical value." Then why are the critics and musical peers wrong when they rave about obscure artists? Record sales are based on availability, hype, bribes, imitation, safety, familiarity. Often the bestselling music is forgotten and the poor selling music is exalted. Many times kids buy the records their friends are buying or because the band looks handsome or pretty or shocking. How many records did Mozart sell?
This cover art reminds me of those phsyco-delic yarn pillowscases stoners had in their smoking rooms in the sixties. I used to love hunting for these at the Salvation Army during my high school days.I was such silly hippie!

The pouding on the Tom at the end gets tiresome, otherwise brilliant song.

BRILLIANT. Like a circus presenter on shrooms. With cotton candy and a goofy mustache.
