Hinds (Best active band in the world)

The rhythm section in the live band isn’t on the album. The producer played the drums, Ana and Carlotta everything else (reading sleeve notes).

Strengthens the impression that Paula and Maria are very much hired hands rather than full band members. The break-up with the former rhythm section must have been grim.

I have Superstar stuck in my head which I think is maybe their most adventurous song but which has grievous, awful, sad lyrics.

Can’t wait to see it live.

Unexpected stuff. Sitting in a bar at JFK, three guys next to me obviously have something to do with music but are speaking an unknown language. I keep hearing them say things like Siouxsie and the Banshees. 😳

So I ask them and they are Finnish three piece called Cliff Barnes (yes, Dallas). But they know their old punk stuff. One was a big Nick Lowe fan @MitchW

Anyway, they happily took note of Viva Hinds so maybe I sold the girls a couple of albums.

They were winningly thrilled that I used to write for the NME (prehistoric though that is).

For no reason Amazon sent me two copies of the new Hinds album. So my daughter now has one and is under extreme pressure to fall in love with them. 

She should trust me, I gave her Picasso and Matisse, Presley and Cash when she was a kid. Here’s another priceless gift.
