she & him

i'm so fuckin pissed right now at my "computer" i could smash it into bits. taken it upon itself to delete somethin i really need right now ... so now, with nuthin to do, i'll add to ug's declaration. one of those records i really ran into apprehensively. dug zooey in weeds (and elf) ... but ... lot of moments reminiscent of jenny lewis and the watson twin's most excellent joint (ed note: don't be so obviously lame to compare a girl's record to another girl's) (fuck off, it's a compliment-- and they didn't have that creepy background m ward singing on it). alright, z's a lil more SHOWtune leanin on a couple cuts, but beatle cover (EXTRA-LAME) withstanding. this is one of the best records i've heard lately.

dont mind creepy m ward. maybe cuz hes creepy. (will never forget when i first heard his name -- a dude at a small dinner party gave a disc of his as a bday gift, replete with self-satisfied look i wanted to smash asunder with a goalie stick.)

im more amazed i love the record even with jason schwartzmans involvement. but i guess ive mellowed after marie antoinette.
