wasn't it more that everyone loved the idea of royal trux but they spent their career trying to make an exile on main street (which they were just too mangled off the horse to do, so all their records sounded strange and new so everyone thought they were crazy and way edgy) until they reached their apex and actually did made a record that sounded like exile on main street and then everyone went "that was it!" and got on with their lives?
I love no wow, saw them ( the kills that is) last week at rough trade and they were pretty great, enjoyed it more than the show at koko, i got them to sign my diary (i know, but i was drunk and it was kind of a dare, and i just wanted thank them for all the free beer, I'm not making excuses) and they were indeed very sweet people. better on record than live for me (over a headline set a drum machine lacks the emotional dynamics necessary to really tear my roofs off) but for a half hour in a smaller venue they ruled. new one is great wonky pop record so just up my alley.
oh, what is prolix?
