Ah, it's a parody wrapped in a shameless marketing ploy. Just realized that. For a minute I was convinced there was a chillwave band called Corona Lite.

Tho it'd be far cooler to call a band Coors Lite.

Has the band, Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman been mentioned yet? If not, then add that horrible name to the list.

I won't show the tape cover because it's pretty sick.. like an Unsane cover.

van smack, Wednesday, 19 May 2010 23:05 (thirteen years ago) link

(it's middling)

ksh, Wednesday, 19 May 2010 23:20 (thirteen years ago) link

xxp: lol Had to look that one up. I haven't heard a lick from DQMW or don't know anything about it. Here's what the label says about that Wolfenstein 3D

"It's hard to ever take Ryan aka Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman too seriously. In fact, he calls Wolfenstein 3d his 'new age' album. It's not all that new agey but it's definitely new territory. He brings a stellar focus to his usual barrage of bizarre electronics and droning that will make you sea sick and in awe of his mixing mastery. Full Color art + comes with 3D GLASSES!---LABEL DESCRIPTION"

ha

van smack, Wednesday, 19 May 2010 23:29 (thirteen years ago) link

his record is called Wolfenstein 3d . . . ?

ksh, Wednesday, 19 May 2010 23:31 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah. but it's his "new age" album

van smack, Wednesday, 19 May 2010 23:33 (thirteen years ago) link

This thread is lol. Maybe you should start another one for "Bitter old indies, who don't like anything post Pavement".

overexposure to bad music and rock websites has ground down my soul into a fine dust

Upon thinking that there must be a band named Falcon Crest, I had high hopes that they'd be creatively bankrupt coldwave. But they appear to be okay Twin Cities Huskplacments punk.
