Whatev, Pitchfork b*itchfork… The full length isn't as solid but "Hey Now Now" is a fantastic song–number 58 in my top 65 of 2005.

Top 65? Isn't that a little eccentric?
Ok, I might just check it out. I have not liked anything else in ages.

But albums by bands I normally like have done nothing for me:
Decemberists
Gomez
Fiona apple
The national
Idlewild
the list goes on and fucking on. I like the National a lot more now, but it is still not as good as their last album.

I had neither time nor inclination to limit the list to a top 50, so this year itâ??s a top 65!
The entire list is here:

I think the Fiona Apple and National are very good, I agree with the others though
Hey Now Now sounds like first album British Sea Power to me, which is probably why it appeals to you

others have said The Dead 60s sound like the clash

I thought that, and obviously Bowie,
"Starman - David Bowie
Intro:
C G C G
Hey now now
Verse 1
Am
Didn't know what time it was, lights were low oh oh
G
I leaned back on my radio oh oh
D D7 G A C A
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll, lotta' soul, he said."

Not really diggin The Dead 60's who sound more like The Specials then the Clash.. The new Coral is in line with the first record. If you like edge guitar sounds the Sugarplastic record is great.

You should start listening to jazz.

I got the coral. It is Ok, but it has lost the spastic naivety the first album had. They were never the unicorns, being so polished and all, but the songs did go all over the place, a bit like early gomez…..
