man i still can't really get down with bejar's vocals, and there are large portions of kaputt that are a yawner for me and that i have problems with,
but that "sounds, smash hits..." couplet is just all-time. doesn't really scan but perfect. how did he do that?

he read a magizine, iirc

Played Kaputt in the car today, every song is a jam.

great post, mouthy.

Obviously this is a drunken thread so this seems extraneous, but Kaputt is very clearly very American and Let England Shake is very clear very English. I like both, a lot, but I prefer PJ's.

but destroyer isn't american...
this entire episode definitely made the US posters seem more parochial than the UK ones, which i hadn't thought was the case before

i listened to a few tracks off of Kaputt in honor of this thread last night and, yeah, still no....
he should have asked Superpitcher to produce it. maybe then it would have worked a little better.
― scott seward, Friday, 3 June 2016 11:49 (seven years ago) link
is disco in the sky the last thing that superpitcher did? he needs to put out an album and save the world.

there's a double vinyl superpitcher comp that came out last month, looks like it collects a bunch of his singles.
