my Coldplay dig was in reference to how appallingly weak the beat on "Cry" is; I know they are capable of recording decent-sounding drums because I heard "Shiver" playing at brunch on Sunday and was all "who is this band who is aping Coldplay but doing it much better? oh word? lol" but I do stand by my assertion that their baseline response to a rhythm section is to make it as limp as possible
the Interpol/Editors bit was re: the most prominent-to-my-ears vocal line (and I actually enjoy the one Editors album I own, but I have no delusions about their singer)

oh don't dog latin, now they've been mentioned in connection to both gayngs and destroyer, lex will never listen to them.
I do find it interesting though, all of this stuff (incl. coldplay) I mentally file under "white stuff goons check for".

Wait, should I be checking for Destroyer? I always assumed they were sulky singer-songwritery stuff, not white goon music.

Still trying to figure out how liking Gayngs fits into this scenario.

New album is him trying to do just that.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:34 (thirteen years ago) link
Okay, the Destroyer song I checked out is totally white goon music and unsurprisingly I f/w it.

just to be clear when the reeducation fun zone is built i will be a collaborator and will not be fraternizing with john justen

polica kinda started off as a gayngs thing (ryan olsen produces and channy sings) but they might be better and are starting to break out of local mpls hype:

pretty nice. didn't expect so much live drums.
they should get stokley williams and michael bland up in there.

drummers are two of the best in town, esp ben ivascu

btw played a show about 1 1/2 ago with this singer called Mayda who is being groomed/produced by michael bland, so he plays in her live band
