Bitter, Bitter Weeks ~ s/t (2003)



There are times when I will allow somebody inside my bastion (I call it Bluebeard's Castle) who will then see my CD collection, and ask "Why?"

I tend to answer "Why not" before tripping the lever that sends them into my dungeon.

This is a nice one by Brian McTear, who goes by the nom de plume of Bitter, Bitter Weeks. By the way, if you Google Bitter Bitter Weeks, you'll see a lot about carpet cleaning.

I don't know why. Stop asking. Don't make me send you into my cornfield.

Architecture in Helsinki ~ Fingers Crossed (2003)



This is the group's debut. I like this one whole bunches.

I have really only tried to absorb one other AiH album, which is Places Like This.

I couldn't get into Places Like This. There's a joke in there, somewhere.

By the way, if you Google Architecture in Helsinki, you'll discover a lot about this band.

I'm warning you. Don't test me.
