Urusei Yatsura - Kewpies Like Watermelon

Hello again!

We got trafficshaped due to stupid Australian internet loserness and I couldn't update but now I'm back like the return of the mack, bringing you the freshest and most up-to-date and relevant music hits, fresh from 1996. Here for your delectation are the super hip Dubstep Nu-Metal Thamesbeat stylings of Urusei Yatsura, with Kewpies Like Watermelon, a track I liked very much yesterday when it came out. Two point oh. Featuring silent contributions from Florence's Machine, and Dizzy Raasclaat, it's grimey as anything, and Justin Bieber's rap about Twilight is frankly astonishing.

OK, I'm lying, it's clearly indie guitar rock from the ancient past but it's still ace and if you're here reading this then the chances are you will find it to your taste. Urusei Yatsura were a small band from Glasgow who made Dinosaur Jr influenced indiepop songs, and were part of the so called "Glitter Underground" which basically meant kids who liked to write fanzines were into them and lots of their fans wore fake fur, a fact alluded to on the cryptically titled track "Fake Fur" which is worth your time to hunt down if you're that way inclined. They had three albums, this track is from the first, the second is also great, the third one not so much.
