They aren't the same people that I met pre anxiety always, or perhaps
they were always the way they are and the times assisted their change.
When I interviewed them they said they were punk rock, not electroclash,
a term they despised. But then they became more and more electroclash,
almost definers of the genre with miss kitten and fisherspooner (who
they also frowned upon). But they also had that punk element in there.
Resuscitation was my favourite album as well, and some of the b sides
inbetween that and anxiety always were bomb as all getout. But after
that album it all changed, I skipped out on them in atlanta in favor of
recloose. They just don't have the paranoid feel that the first album
gave me.
Mostly I don't want to be let down from the favourable days of yore,
much like I was with nin's new album.
