The Dandy Warhols


Bohemian Like You (Capitol)



Absolutely ace, this. A rumble of drums, the seedy warble of vintage porn
Hammond, and then - look! - in struts a 'Brown Sugar'-style riff, naked as
the day it was born, and swinging deliciously free. "I
really love your hairdo, yeah", oozes Courtney Taylor, dripping on
the rug. "I'm glad you like mine too/ Yeah, we're looking
pretty cool..."

This is the quintessential Dandy Warhols moment
to date: wryly self-mocking - after all, what are The Dandy Warhols if
not the desperately cool hipsters that 'Bohemian...' so perfectly
lampoons? - but still hellbent on making it to the party on time. A 'Common
People'
for the East Village set, and just as corkin' fine as that sounds.
