The Faint "getting inspiration" from B-movie

Postby Blitz Boy » Sun Sep 19, 2004 6:08 pm

Hi there and greetings after a two months period out from here. Sorry if this has been mentioned before (I checked the forum and saw nothing) but... have you listened to The Faint's new album, "Wet from birth"?. There's a song there, number 4, called "Southern belles in London sing" that is much more than inspired in B-movies "Remembrance days". They will say there's a chance, I guess, but it's too similar to acept it. I went to their credits to see if they credit it to B-movie or some comment, but there's not a single word.

Just a curiosity, and hope someone notices it and makes people re-discover B-movie, a great new wave band, although a lot of people think they are synth-pop because of "Nowhere girl".
