It's Chilly Out Here in the Country... and Creepy, Too

Current new obsession: the Detroit band Blanche. Edward Gorey gets behind a pedal steel and the Gashlycrumb Tinies shriek with ghastly, funereal joy. (Renfeld knew the true meaning of the word "beetlemania," by the way.) And as long as I'm shilling out puns unworthy to shine Forrest Ackerman's shoes, I might as well go whole hog: Blanche would have been a hit on The Dead Sullivan Show. Heh. Watch the video for their song "Do You Trust Me?" and you'll pick up what I'm laying down.
