i didn't know it was his son. on the lame trivia tip i believe the owner of
penthouse's son runs spin and blaze too.

has anyone heard icq yet? i picked up one of their records the other week
and haven't really made my mind up yet. the texture of it is really
interesting though i find the beats a little difficult to deal with.. i
don't thin it would happen due to pretention on the indierock side, but i
feel like the music wthat would come out if transam,icq,karate,etc. were
produced by swingsett or optical would be most incredible. anyone else have
any thoughts on this sound?
