The Patsys: Beneath You/Gone (single)
[Umbrella]

Ive loved you so long sometimes its all I can remember the patsys.  This was the note tucked in with the CD single I was sent by The Patsys.  Its very romantic, and they have succeeded in getting my attention. Its as if a little girl were tugging at the hem of my pretty skirt, pleading with me to buy her a lollipop or something so innocent, so manipulative.

The song is Beneath You and its pretty good.  There is organ playing, which almost always makes for a good song, as far as Im concerned.  Beneath You is mysterious and raw and a glimpse of delicious things to come.  The bonus track is Gone, and I wasnt as impressed even though it was engineered by Steve Albini, ber college rock wunder and friend to these Ohio-ians.

After just a bit of research, it is very clear that this band loves to make songs and put them on CD but only a couple at a time The Patsys are a tease!!! First they love me, and then they only give me two songs When is a proper full-length coming out?
