Mostly Perfume Genius
I know these videos were probably released at different times throughout today but they’ve all only just come to my attention in the past ten minutes or so on my FB news feed and of course, just when I was about to go to sleep. I feel so disconnected from everything doing full-time hours. I’m so damn sleepy but had to watch—
Girls - My Ma Dying to know whether that’s...

i wish i’d actually listened to girls more when i saw them live, now i’m really into them i want to see them again. the band that is, not actual girls.

Everyone wants to be involved in fucking music here.
Ever been to London? It’s the same deal.

Vero Electronics - Add N to (X) (because Tom Furse...
