This Is How You Spell "HAHAHA We Destroyed The Hopes And Dreams of A Generation"

For months I'd assumed that the time would come to use that as a blog post title, but it didn't, and I'm hoping that as of Tuesday it never will. So suffice it to say that Maureen and I made the trek up to Ottobar in Baltimore tonight to see Los Campesinos! and you should buy both the albums they released this last year. (Think Belle and Sebastian with more of a punk sensibility.)

I initially scoffed at your description of the Los Campesinos! sound, but then I listened to a couple of songs and sure enough, that just about captures it. I'd maybe say Belle & Sebastian + the Go! Team. This also balances the equation in terms of exclamation marks.

"Punk" is such a loaded word...
