in diamond disarray

Inside Stafrænn Hákon's Í Ástandi Rjúpunnar album, there's a 'checklist' which runs thus:

For your own safety, please complete!
- this product reminds you of

• a Puma
• early Oasis
• janitorial service
• Martin Scorsese's 'Jack'

I have to say it reminds me of none of the above. It seems to be equal parts Mogwai, Einstürzende Neubauten and Dif Juz. Which is OK in my book.

Now then, XTC apparently have a new single out. Er, on iTunes. More specifically, on iTunes USA. Which my iTunes client chokes on every time. Rats!

nb. my favourite food is roast parsnips, in which I indulged last night.
