Happy 11th birthday blog.

As I've said before, I have zero problem with a band exhibiting clear hero worship. Sometimes, I love hearing another band's take on a classic sound. I never call it "ripping off".

Save My Skin (Biel, Switzerland) "Different Bubble" definitely has two clear hero worships going on - The Velvet Underground and Pavement. And that's a party I'll never get tired of attending. Any fan of Fortunatti Durutti Marinetti, or Nick & the Nod will also enjoy this release. Also, this is the perfect time to remind us of Paris 1942, the great Superior Viaduct reissue featuring Mo Tucker and the Bishop brothers from the early 1980s.

Sun Cousto are a Swiss band. "Imaginery Girls" is their debut LP on Swiss label Chrüsimüsi Records.

When I first started listening to "I Don't Wanna Talk" (the only song currently available) I thought I was listening to an early 80s punk band that I'd never heard. Sun Cousto give off vibes similar to Kleenex/LiLiPUT or Neo Boys. Bands we've posted about - Lung Leg, and Teenage Burritos - also come to mind.
