I live in a seaside city. Sure, we have pebbles for sand, seaweed for Mediterranean temperatures, but still, to not go in the sea for two years where you have such liberty to do so is madness. Well today I broke the burden, in the process gaining the worst sunburn of my life (forgot to factor 20 the ankles!). I had the iPod on whilst relaxing and a few songs seems to truly suit the summer scene. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and ‘The Other Side of Mt. Heart Attack’ (Liars) were perfect on repeat. I didn’t miss being stuck indoors at all.
Some of the finer internet produces for today:
- Is Jens Lekman the first famous person to contract swine flu? What’s Chris Brown up to these days? (Pitchfork)
- Johnny Foreigner are for real, they’re back and they’re touring. (DIY)
- They’re also giving away their new single for free, with 2 other songs (JoFo)
- David Renshaw interviews the outspoken Beth Ditto (It’sGettingBoringByTheSea)

- Everybody likes a backstage photo: Here’s tons of them at Glasto (NME)
