A Public Apology

alcxxk [Edit] [Delete] 16:01, 14 August '06

in a thread about the Arctic Monkeys' new single, i referred to their postBritpop sound as "Bamos music".

This caused a degree of entirely understandable upset to the bamos in question, which i have been believe that a declaration of "Bamos Likes Good Music" would go some way to alleviating.

Whilst music is obviously subjective, and the music tastes of Bamos and me sometimes differ, the main inaccuracy in my flighty comment was the implication that there exists a narrow field of music in which the bamos cow grazes. this is simply not true. a man who will play Maneater twice in a night whilst owning considerable tracts of the SubPop back catalogue is no such cow, more a unicorn, nay, Pegasus, feasting wheresoever his fancy takes him, and i, christopher james alcxxk, am sorry.
