Bottom Of The Pops: 02/11/2018

ARTIST NAME / SONG TITLE / AMOUNT OF YOU TUBE PLAYS ON CHART PUBLICATION

1 Assemblage – Circuit Breaker  (10)

Some post post post Depeche Mode for you, they have spawned many. 

2 Soda Slim – Boom (16)

Just a cool little electronic piece with an Avalanches type intro. Oddly appealing.

3 The Evil Usses – Amateur Pro Wrestling (28)

Mad as a ferret.

4 Rob & Friends – Way Back Home EP (103)

They just draw you in. Great  little songs that say all’s ok with the world.
5 Moon Duo – No Fun  (144)

Here at BOP, we’ll never pass up on a cover of No Fun. Ever feel you’ve been cheated.

6 Sewer Side – Wire (194)

We’re suckers for lo-fi fuzz guitar shit as well.
7 Loom – Dog In The Fight (263)

Big fan of Loom’s, here at BOP. His earlier cinematic sound had us entranced a couple of years back. This retains that clarity of sound with added extra acid..you spoil us ambassador. 

8  Kristen Hersh – Wonderland  (310)

Well….why not.

9  Naked Naps – Eisenhower You Are The Father Of The  Interstate Highway System  (524)

Not a bad little number, but it’s all about the title.

10) Edward Penfold – Betsy’s Linen (799)

Yes there’s the Syd’s about him but it’s more than a pastiche and rather engaging. Released in Oct and we’ll be listening to the rest of the album.

Because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know.

We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know.

But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don’t know we don’t know.
