This review is from: What Do I Wish for Now? (Audio CD)

it all started with a mix tape. all those years ago. "non-stop indiepop." [which i still own & play on my dusty tapedeck] compiled for me by beth aberdeen, herself. complete with gatchaman j-card & handwritten tracklisting. that cassette introduced me to the world of aberdeen. i've been in love ever since.

washes of swirly guitars. start/stop bass lines. dreamy/shimmery vocals.

their songs are about a relationship on the verge of breaking up. a fractured romance. songs about loving someone. songs about hating someone. songs about loving that you hate someone. and hating that you love someone. songs about brilliant mistakes. all while being unmistakingly brilliant. oh, yes. and who could forget about the rain? ;)

from learning to crawl [byron] to hitting their running stride [kyoto death song]. and everything in between. i'd list my favourite song, but i can't--as they're all my favourites.

their music will break your heart & mend it in the same breath.

simply stated : aberdeen is the bee's knees. if you haven't already fallen in love with them, you are a heartless b*st*rd.

thank you so much : beth, john, rachel, jenni, ben, johnny, kelly, robert & brian for creating these gems. i'd be lying if i said i didn't want moremoremore from the aberdeen camp, but this stands as a fitting exclamation point at the tail end of a beautifully crafted sentence.

from palm desert to london & back in [18] eighteen tracks. this is a trip well worth taking...
