XTC
Just a random thought, apropos of nothing: XTC were, and are, a fantastic band. Jeez. Even their mediocre stuff (Big Express, let's say) has at least half-a dozen sparkling songs on it.
No wonder everyone out there now sounds like the White Music/Drums and Wires era iteration of the band. And nothing beats the opening guitar riffs for Respectable Street. Sinister and slashing and sneering all at once.
End reverie.
