I was watching Best Week Ever recently -- which I am unsure is completely funny – when I saw a clip snarkily named Most Rockin’ Moment of the Week on the VIEW. They then cut to Whoopi Goldberg introducing one of my favorite bands, The Moldy Peaches, who lulled into a sarcastically slow strummer.
The duo has not played together in years, but made an exception to promote the Juno soundtrack, which “Anyone Else but You” is featured on.
Obviously the comedic brain wizards on BWE whiffed on the dark, perverse anti-folk humor of the Moldies.
I’ve been following them since college, and have met the wonderfully warped babysitter-babysitee – therefore can vouch: they do Rock. Street Cred Central verified.
I’m just surprised Peach Kimya censored herself for the menopausal audience, subbing “dropped a little load,” instead of “‘shook a little turd’ out of the bottom of your pants.” I guess she’s grown up a lot in the last six years.
This rant solves my ponderance – BWE is not funny, not hip and possesses no street cred – at least in comparison to the View. Center square for the win!
In other news, if you haven’t heard Band of Horses other than on a car commercial, you need to feed your soul.
