More Merrittocracy
The always-excellent Onion AV club has a nice interview with Stephin Merritt.
O: Do you follow your reviews?
SM: About once a year, I'll see what people think. My favorite review of myself was in People magazine. They were reviewing the first 6ths record, and they said that ordinarily, "he sings the songs himself. He has a voice like the wind moaning through a small, relatively leafless tree."

The Magnetic Fields create shamelessly self-aware pop music that employs irony to enhance rather than compensate for mastery of the craft. The bubble-gum melodies and deadpan lyrics are attended to by front man Stephin Merritt's slew of playful neuroses, and underlying each syrupy measure one can find their residue. Merritt's baritone stretches across bars and lingers in the rests. Fortunately, The Magnetic Fields left addicts with 69 Love Songs before disappearing for five years. Listeners who have been cherishing each of the 69 songs like a precious drop of methadone will find solace in i, The Field's major label debut released earlier this week on Nonesuch Records. The following is the scant transcription of Stephin Merritt's lower register and anticipates The Magnetic Field's two-night stand at Berklee on the 22nd and 23rd.
After some pauses to water the children and find synonyms for "complicit," we will indeed return to the Merrittocracy*, and we will be loaded. Nightvision, special guests, Althusser—the whole black ops crew. In the meantime, if you're not busy doing The Tabasco to Nina Sky's "Move Ya Body" or collecting information on your neighbors, why not spare a thought for some of the following mechanically reproduced recording artists?
