Neverever.

Today, I finally got hold of The World As I See It by Albert Einstein. If you’ve never read it; you’re missing out. I’m just under half-way through (a book holds my attention more than anything) and I can already sense that this will be a book that I reference for the rest of my life. I don’t know why I’m telling you, I guess I just hope my fellow fans of Neverever are intelligent and love books? Regardless, just read the book.

So, Neverever. What do you need to know? They’re from L.A. I know what you’re thinking, “Stop with the L.A. band already!” The thing is, English music is boring me again. It’s not making me excited at the moment- so I’m looking for bigger and better things. You know of my love for Garage Rock bands- they just have everything I want. I like my music how I like my women….odd, I guess? But not too odd. My music can be as strange as it wants to be. I don’t want a woman that barks at dairy produce at 2pm on a Friday.

Neverever are currently the band that are giving me that “I’m in love” feeling. Not with a person, but with a sound. I don’t have any chums that dig this kind of music. It’s a good thing I guess, because it means I don’t have anyone constantly saying to me,”I hate what you listen to.” I get that A LOT. It’s a good job nobody I know reads what I write here, because they’d hate it. I think if any did read this- they’d tell me how they hate how I write, and they hate what I listen to. It’s okay, I don’t want to share Neverever with anyone right now. I want to keep them as my own. Just like how I feel about Dum Dum Girls, 2:54 and Swim Deep. There’s others, but there are some bands I’ve got to keep close to me and not let anyone I know catch on. Not yet anyway. What sometimes happens is, I find a band/singer. Write about them on here. I’m called various names for liking such things. A few months later….BOOM! They’re everywhere. It’s cool. It’s cool. But you’re not taking Neverever from me. Not yet.

So why do I love Neverever so? Because they make me feel like I’m some place beautiful. Somewhere better than where I am right now. Okay..they make me wish I was in L.A. There. I said it, okay? Big deal. They make me wish I was in L.A. drinking cheap whiskey on a beach watching everything pass me by.

It’s like the Count Five meets Dum Dum Girls with slight touches of Blondie. I fucking LOVE this. I really love this. My excitement is back. It’s back- and it is all for Neverever. I want to listen to them in some shitty, dark, filthy underground bar surrounded by sweaty bodies that are throwing their limbs about like children that have drank too much cherryade. This is stunning stuff. Neverever, can you please come to the UK and scream your songs in my face? I’ll scream back right at you. God…this is it kids. This is what you need. If you don’t want it, or need it- then I’ll take it. I’ll take all of it. I’m never going to recover from whatever I’m feeling for this band right now.

One thought on “Neverever.
