Gil Mantera's Party Dream = Napolean Dynamite impersonates Thomas Dolby. posted by billysumday at 7:11 PM on March 12, 2006
Haw... very good. For some reason, this reminds me that Daniel Johnston is in the Whitney Biennial this year (though not for his music, but for his drawings). posted by R. Mutt at 7:12 PM on March 12, 2006
Really, really dug the Herman Dune song!
The Gil Mantera... not so much.
And Herman Dune has the better beard, too. posted by Alvy Ampersand at 7:13 PM on March 12, 2006
I second the plug for Herman Dune. 27 and I'm fucked. Well, it's ten years from teenage, and that's a freaking lot. Well played, Herman. posted by billysumday at 7:30 PM on March 12, 2006
Yeah, the herman dune song made me go out and buy the CD. "I feel a little strange, feels like I'll never get my shit.....together.." He's from sweeden.
It's damn catchy. The Gil Mantera, just made me realize what a sucker I am for contrirony (a neologism i just made up for contrived+irony...does it work?). posted by hurting.the.feelings.of.thechinesepeople at 7:45 PM on March 12, 2006
A buddy recently turned me on to Gil Mantera. I hated them for pretty much the same reasons he loves them....
I second the hipster irony thing. meh. posted by photoslob at 7:46 PM on March 12, 2006
GMPD's new album is great. posted by Mach3avelli at 2:12 AM on March 13, 2006
Not On Top was one of my favorite songs of 2005. Now I have to go out and listen to GMPD, too. Thanks! posted by dougunderscorenelso at 6:58 AM on March 13, 2006
