Julie Christmas - The Bad Wife.

Don't let the name fool you. She's nothing like Christmas.

Oh fuck. Not what I expected. Yay.

Is this a good "yay" or a bad "yay?"

It's a good yay. But it reminded me of a band (not because they're that similar) with a singer named Beth. It's NOT the Gossip. I can't fucking remember the band for the life of me.

EDIT: I remember now. Forget Cassettes.

Gotcha. Julie Christmas is from Made Out of Babies and Battle of Mice. Two bands I also love.

I will check them out.

Yeah, thanks for the link Midget. Was not aware of Warpaint or Frightened Rabbit and am really enjoying those albums. Looking forward to working my way through these lists.

The first 3 Kinks albums are being released next weeks as 2-disc remaster sets with interviews.

Your music collection will be incomplete without them.

This inspired me to Google up Dave Davies' take on Van Halen's cover of "You Really Got Me."

QuoteVan Halen's version was very Middle America. It was like, 'Hey man, look at me with my tight trousers! Here's our version of You Really Got Me!'

Then comments threads like this test my faith in humanity.

Once at a Kinks concert, they played several of their songs that had been covered, and Ray introduced them in about the manner you'd expect:

David Watts: "Here's a song that was covered by a band that dressed like us."

Stop Your Sobbing: "Here's a song that was covered by a band with my girlfriend."

You Really Got Me: "Here's a song that was covered by a band with tighter pants than us."

How THE FUCK did I not know that "David Watts" was written by Ray Davies?

Also, I'd never heard Van Halen's version of "You Really Got Me".  I have now.  It's dreadful.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.
