the BRUTAL, UGLY truth of my FABULOUS, BEAUTIFUL life.

13:57 + 23.01.2007 = you owe me one more song so i can prove to you that i'm so much better than [that].

dear members of the mixtape consortium,

in the wake of multimedia attack-messages regarding my choice for album of the year [2006], i feel it urgent to curtail the anger. [[here. cos i'm not about to make a quarter-dozen phonecalls, write a duo of emails, or even acknowledge the texting nonsense.]]

1. I was not the one who decided that eligible albums had to have been released in the U.S. within the year in question. ...were that not the rule, Love Is All would've been on my 2005 list as I am the go-to when it comes to indie swedish imports.

2. y'all know damned-well of my affinity for courtneylove/riotgrrrl-types, my overidentification with allthings swedish [[only "over-" cos i oft forget that i'm onehalf product of an irishman]], and my brit70/80'sgaragepunk fetish... so it really should not have been such a "shocker."

and yes. i AM aware of the overabundance of dan�electric albums upon the list. but hey... it's not my fault that drumkits and keyboards were finally played remarkably well and mixed with lovely words by several groups this year.

and no. i do not have the means or the energy to defend my decision to place les prototypes in the top40 other than flat-out stating: it's the kittie's pyjamas to shake one's ass in french.

the list remains in tact.
so get over it-ally,
-mattson.
