Re: (TV) Rating the TV albums



I really like Warm and Cool. This might sound kind of funny but something
about Warm and Cool makes me think of "Twin Peaks" - or maybe it's just the
open song on Warm and Cool that makes me think of the theme song from Twin
Peaks. The whole record is like that though - gothic - not in the sense of
The Cure or Ministry or trench coats, none of that, rather something
otherworldly, fragile,ghostly. It is totally great driving music . Oh, also,
I heard a snippet of music from Warm and Cool being played as background on
NPR ! I'm certain it was from Warm and Cool because I've been listening to
that one a lot lately. Couldn't say song it was though...
