After doing this feature for God knows how long, it’s just dawned upon us that we don’t have a witty opening tag to use every week.
You know how Q Magazine‘s motto is ‘use crusty bands on the cover that are popular and will shift a few copies’. The NME’s words of wisdom are ‘recycle the same twenty bands every week and make up new genres like “post vacuum glam†to make us look hip and trendy’.
So after thinking long and hard we’ve come up with this drawn-out introductory paragraph. “Each week we try and bring you something a little bit different and isn’t necessarily going to make you the coolest kid in school. Here’s something that we think sounds ace, but hasn’t quite got the power to make A&R men wank out millions of pounds to whore it out on TV & Radio”. On second thoughts, that sounds really shit, so we’ll not bother. Here’s something much better, Modern Institute.
