cas kaplan - she imitates a frown

coffee cans and handfuls of change! borrowing instruments, breaking curfew and neglecting responsibilities! pirate radio-ready pillow-couched misanthropy! anti-love songs for conduction-deaf ears! guitars! software! whispers! shouts! menace! affection! affectation! ennui! habits! torn clothes and loose sheets! victorian novels and foreign fiction! refinement! vernacular! spinning head and robot fingers! an abundance of plastic! toes half-frozen and eyes half shut! elaborate crassness and circuitous metaphor! malaise! the common cold! melpomene! thalia! mneme! aiode!

another album about bad feelings, but this time you can dance to it!
