    Missouri's Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin pulled off a passable, if fun, debut in 2005/2006 with Broom, while the follow-up, Pershing, resembles the indie-hipster version of a college-guy jam band. They sing lyrics like "Yeah, you're right but you'll be dead right/Yeah, you look alright, but you're dead, right?" on "Dead Right," and rhyme "oceanographer" with "court stenographer," "news photographer," and "map cartographer" ("Oceanographer"), the latter of which actually is rather redundant. Although the melodies are hard to remember once the songs end, they can occasionally be catchy, as on "Think I Wanna Die" and "Glue Girls."

'all' meaning 'us.' little did we know what horrors lay for our beloved musicians. i just got a message from chris and this video attached. apparently during the show, darren (mute math's drummer), rocked out a little too hard and cut his face from what appears to be his cymbal. no one at t...

Vampire Weekend may be the bloggy-darling of the hour, but Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin has been making Afro-Pop indie-rock perfection for years now - to basically zero fanfare. It's a conspiracy I tell ya. Damn Commies!
