someone still loves you boris yeltsin.

Even in priding myself to be your best source for all things Polyvinyl, I was still oblivious to the news that Matt broke earlier today. Missouri's Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin has signed to PV, who will re-release their debut Broom in October. It's pop music. Independent pop music, and it's nice to see Polyvinyl getting back on that track for 2006. So far this year, PV has already reissued several Of Montreal releases as well as new records from Aloha, The Like Young, and The M's, and with Headlights debut full-length on it's way alongside SSLYBY, it's a much more solidly pop-based year for my Illinois dreamboat of a label. While I've made no mistake in rejoicing in 2005's adventures into the unknown, with mighty fine albums from Picastro (with Owen Pallett of Final Fantasy) and ZZZZ, it's taking longer than I expected to forget about xbxrx. My loyalty to the label dictates my keeping the CD in my collection, but my loyalty to my ears dictates I don't listen to it. So very harsh. My apologies.
Apart from rambling, I'd like to make sure your anticipation for Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin is high. They've got such a likeable sound and bona fide songwriting capabilities. Join in now.
