Music About Comics Should Be Good, Too

Frankly, I blame Warren Ellis. Over on The Engine he put up a link to his new musical revue, the Apparat Programme, akin to his old Superburst Mixtapes. It's a collection of neat new music put together by people who subscribe to BadSignal.

Anyway, there's one song on there, Four Color Love Story, and it's the new greatest thing ever. It's by a band called The Metasciences, and they're quite good. (Yes, you can listen to the song at the link. Go. Do so now. You know you want to. It even mentions Sue Dibny).

For the music geeks among you, they' give off a Rilo Kiley vibe. But with comic nerdity and acoustic awesomeness.

Ooh, that's nice. Thanks.

Since I'm an insufficient music geek, I can only compare them to the Virgin-Whore Complex or the Moldy Peaches (a comparison I normally avoid, but I get the feeling they wouldn't be insulted). Now I just have to track down some Rilo Kiley (thanks again, I guess) and wait for the myspace download link to work.

"Those bastards in the Pentagon can't really kill Sue Dibny, no more than they could kill off Lois Lane." Beautiful.
