Pitchfork Brock

Pitchfork Media has a review of the re-release of The Moon and Antarctica here. It reads as if they've read Brock's retrospect on the same subject. They even mention Pink Floyd but, unlike Brock, compared the original album cover of The Moon... to a Pink Floyd cover. Also, the reviewer noted hearing some difference in the sound, but only slight. Perhaps Brock moonlights as a Pitchfork writer, with an alias? Hmm?

Speaking of reissues, Reggie and the Full Effect is reissuing Greatest Hits 84-87 with seven bonus tracks. It's noteworthy to mention that the original came out on Second Nature Recordings. Now is Vagrant trying to cash in on Reggie's most popular, and successful album? Probably. You can download one of the new songs. It's not too shabby, but makes for a good gimmick with it's title. There are three songs that reference Lord of the Rings. They are: The Fellowship of the Bling, The Two Blings, and The Return of the Blings.
