Marry me / Seems to be on my mind
They sold me with this video, it was one of those times watching NYnoise when I sit up and look around...complete jaw drop. It's a normal band practice space/living room, but there is a ton of crappy computers and headphones keyboards, flashing lights, and a monochrome green screen. But when I heard the line 'I'm going to make out with my computer.' I almost fell off my couch. How can I relate to this nerd pushing buttons singing into a headset? Well I spend enough hours staring at this screen wishing I was making more music, and could just write ridiculous lyrics and not give a crap.

This is like future bible heroes, just fun and from a parallel universe in the late eighties early nineties where the music was good and free. Hmmm I wonder if there is a name thing going on there...some kind of weird connection.
I remember now seeing their other video 'rent a wreck' and I didn't like that so much...but I've changed my mind. I'm trying to get over the slightly 'they might be giants' thing going on.
And what the hell is with sweden? Seriously NY, we've got some things to learn.
