I love Tall Dwarfs!

I once emailed someone with this as the subject line, and no body. He replied, "They love you too," which I thought was a very sweet thing to say. Man, wouldn't that be nice. For the past 4 years I've been riding around with Tall Dwarfs CDs in my car and listening the hell out of Hello Cruel World, Fork Songs, and Weeville, but for some reason I never opened 3 EPs until yesterday. Joy! Every time I "discover" a new Tall Dwarfs record it's almost something that needs to be studied over and over and from many angles, like other people study art. By now I've listened to those other three records so much that often I hear a song and think, "oh, he's doing his superlow singing/60s pop/Iggy Pop/backwards stuff/Alec sings etc thing now" but as familiar as those can be, each song is still utterly different. I love them!

I've been listening to all the Tall Dwarfs albums tonight, and realized I no longer have the 3eps cd? Any way we can trade NZ records? Get in touch.
