Some young punks from England doing schoolboy harmonies in a 6-minute ballad about the crusades. The ultimate irony is no irony at all. This song is what madrigals probably sounded like, back when real people sang madrigals. Can’t wait for the album. (Reviewed on our #26 podcast – We Are in Bed.)

Album Review: Ugly by The Ugly

So wrong of us to demand the return of this band, which broke up six years ago and whose members are all happily on to other things. But this album is so great. Deep and superficial, loud and even louder. (And it’s free! Click the link to download it.) Our favorite song: Picasso. (Reviewed on our #25 podcast, Ugly.)
