Fuck Montreal.... Actually I was thinking of moving there as that's where all the big videogame companies hang out and I thought I could get a job there with my many talents of err.... running a record shop. probably not gonna happen so I'll review this Fuck Montreal 7" which has just landed on the Stumparumper label. This is some grotty scuzzy sounding female fronted indie rock somewhere in between Comanechi and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. It's garagey and dirty and limited to just 300 copies. It's worth checking out for the crazy sleeve which will have you serially confused as to what on earth is on it.... 7 tracks on one 7" 'n all! All hand numbered and we only got a few as people don't buy records anymore. So be quick in not buying it!"Winter Mange" is Fuck Montreal's debut vinyl release after countless previous releases on just about every other kind of media available (tape, cdr, vhs, who knows what else?), and it's a stunner. Over 14 minutes of music is crammed onto this small platter, taking full advantage of a format that is too often relegated to carrying 4 minutes of music...TOTAL. This is rare music - it comes from a space that you or I can't know...it has always been here, and will still be around for download after everyone's gone. There is nothing in the way except the sound.
