CONSENSUS—TENDER AND MILD
Alex and I agree with Douglas (who generously provides an MP3 of the text in question): The Dog Faced Herman's "Time Bomb" was aptly named. It is one of the few 90s indie singles that acted like a single. The song works as both a concentrated dose of the noise that is indie's birthright and a beautifully wound instance of the pop imperative to keep things moving. I didn't always hate indie rock. I forget that.
In further agreeance news, Joshua answers the question in exactly the fashion I hoped it would be answered. Takes me back to the day when two sevens clashed and we would heat up the transatlantic fiber optics sparring about Roxette. Dark is globally en fuego, so stay tuned on the daily while he does his thing. Paris agrees.
