One of the downsides of having an obscenely large number of CDs is it's quite easy to lose track of them. I'm not kidding when I say that every flat surface in my apartment has a stack of CDs on it. So I was giddy yesterday when I found one that that had been on my "most wanted" list for the past couple of months.
The Heart Throbs were a Liverpool band that came out of the early nineties British shoegazer scene. Led by the sisters of Echo & The Bunnymen drummer Pete DeFrietas, they put out three albums, two of which were titled after obscure sex terms (the third, Vertical Smile, was a little more obvious). I don't think this was their first single, but it was the video that used to get played on 120 Minutes all the time.

I was trying to find an appropriate picture for this post, but a cursory search didn't find anything, and I'm too exhausted tonight to be persistent. Too much post-gig socializing last night. I'd have been in bed two hours ago if it hadn't been Lost night.
