Criminally Ignored #3

Greatness: I want this, but can't have it.



















You can own this gem of a tour shirt during the "No Deachunter Tour" that I really wish was coming to LA. Ho hum.

Moving on:















Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions - Bavarian Fruit Bread

Recently, I read that Hope Sandoval has stopped sharing an apartment with Miranda Lee Richards (ok, that's not true, but it just seems like they'd make for good roommates) and finally decided to start recording again. Which means there will be another Warm Inventions album coming some time this fall. One of the biggest complaints I've heard about 2001's Bavarian Fruit Bread is that it sounded too much like rehashed Mazzy Star, making the album too predictable as a result. Well, that's true, and honestly I don't expect this upcoming album to be any different. So why recommend it? Well, I'm not recommending it, so much as I'm recommending the fourth track on the album. "On the Low" has been a fav of mine for a while now. I fell in love with it the very first time I heard it on the Sprout soundtrack (several years later, and I still haven't seen the film). Nothing amazing, just so freaking chill.
