Apples in Stereo

Post by Screw_Michigan »

Just discovered Apples in Stereo recently (thanks, Sky.fm radio) and have been enjoying their 2010 album Travelers in Space and Time. Dance Floor is probably their most accessible song. It's good, really good.

You are truly one of the worst pieces of shit to ever post on this board. Start giving up your paycheck for reparations now and then you can shut the fuck up about your racist blasts.

Two things:

1) About as gay as everything else you listen to.

2) Looks like Smackaholic is responsible for their equipment setup.

Why are they wearing those ridiculous looking blast goggles?
Was the flying jizz hazard a serious concern in that studio?

"Twee dream pop?"

Belle and Sebastian is twee, and great twee, at that. Apples in stereo = not twee.

How do you define "twee," comrade?

You see, the problem isn't the high-pitch singing...it's the fact that he probably, naturally sings in a lower register, but chooses to sing in a faggy whisper.
They're not gay...I could forgive that. You are what you're born. The sin is in striving for gayness. They actually make a conscious effort to emasculate their sound.

Do you follow?

Their aim is squarely at the "young female iTunes market".

Keep the libido in check and try not to sound lasciviously threatening.

California's trying to pass a law to make goggles mandatory in porno films. That's just so wrong.

Screwey, tell you what...

If you want, I'll offer you a one-time amnesty deal and delete this thread... and we can all act like this never happened. This thread didn't happen. This band never happened.

~poof~

GONE!


I can make this happen...just say the word, bro...
