BIYL QUICKIES

I'm With The Genremongers →

tomewing:

New Guardian column! It’s not really about witch house though it’s “about” witch house. I wanted to do a column about the problems of genre which was written without the comfort blanket of an in-the-know tone. Whether I succeeded or not I dunno (especially as I’ve not checked the edit yet). This has something tangentially to do with Nitsuhs “whither underground?” link/conversation from earlier, too, I think.

After reading this article I immediately decided that I needed to hear some witch house, and amusingly enough, this very article was result # 4 on Google.
