Comeback

Re-press. Torquil Campbell of Stars writes: "Nightsongs" was a loving pastiche, but a pastiche nonetheless; "The Comeback" e.p. is easily the best, most original music we've ever made; it is a reaction to the mundanity of some people's reactions to our work; and we like it very much. We love Montreal, but we are very poor and very bored with that; the only way to make a comeback is not give a shit about being made fun of! We don't give a shit! Don't make fun of us! We are very serious people! Amy and Chris are in love! Evan and Chris are in love! I hate all of them! Vive la revolution douce! "Krush" (Amy calims this is about me making her move from Toronto to Montreal, but i think it's about her having a crush on Sully. Whatever, it's a hook and we believe in hooks) "Violent" (Let's just say that sexuality is a powerful artistic tool; Sully really sounds like he needs to get off in this song) "The Aspidistra Flies (This is a love song for lovers and people who have hope about the world; we wanted it to be very very beautiful; Eric Hove is a genius and plays the most wonderful saxaphone) "Cote des Neiges" (We all wanted to write an instrumental, so I came up with the idea of a snowfall, seeing as that the sole sensory experience you have in Montreal between november and April; Cranner and Sully wanted it to sound like spiritualized; I wanted it to sound like Losaida from Joe Jackson's Body and Soul LP (there i go with that 80's obsession again!) so i wrote that theme) "The Comeback" (When U first wrote this, I thought it was a character study of a washed up rock star; then I realized it was the most autobiographical song I've ever written! Maybe it's both! a band favourite). Le Grand Magistery.
