Some crumbs: Vampire Weekend / The Kills

1 - There’s this TV channel, here in Italy, called QOOB (launched in 2006). I think I’ll write a post about it, someday, because.. it’s something totally different from everything’s been vomited by Italian television since 1954 (year of birth of television in Italy).
However, let’s come to the point. This is QOOB’s video of the week.
I climbed to Dharamsala too, I did, I met the highest lama; his accent sounded fine to me“.
Like you use to say, “awesome!”.

2 - An approximatively 90% of under 60 y.o. italian people know who Kate Moss is.
And almost all of them could recognize Pete Doherty, the most famous among her boyfriends (at least.. more famous than Primal Scream’s Bobby Gillespie for sure)
But maybe.. uhm.. barely a dozen of them listened to any song by The Libertines (one of the most idolized and overrated english band of the last ten years) or by The Babyshambles, actually.
And so.. before her actual boyfriend, Jamie Hince of The Kills (anglo-american duo aesthetically in debt with Warhol’s Factory world), gets out of her life forever, let’s get to know them better.
Here’s the second single from their last album, “Midnight Boom” (2008).
I can’t tell yet whether I like it or not.
