The Charalambides thread inspired this thread.I'm sure that i'm not alone in having been let down a few times by what you had heard/read/eavesdropped about a band. That irritating feeling of finding out that their music just didn't live up to your highly set expectations.The same thread also reminded me of something that Thurston Moore said just before the release of Daydream Nation.When the interviewer's questions turned to how the album was going to sound like he responded along the line of :'I can't tell you exactly how it's going to sound but it will make your head spin'.First time i listened to that record it did just that:it made my head spin and without the help of any chemicals or else.Now,that's what i call a proper,well packaged delivery.
