Hehe, I
love the lyrics to "Losing My Edge" - "I'm losing my edge / to the art-school Brooklynites / in little jackets / and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties". So funny. An amazing document of hipster culture that avoids the pitfalls of humourless elitism even if it's written from that "been there, done that" perspective of an aging scenester. Thanks for supplying the complete thing, some of the bands he mentions are kinda hard to make out out on the record. I admit, I'm sorta like one of those anti-hipsters that's secretly a little sad I didn't grow up in N.Y.
Ok, so now I know a bit more about Dirtnap records! You are a veritable cornucopia of interesting music / movie facts, Loy. Kudos (which I now know is also a chocolate bar).
