Jay Howell has been going on about Cruel Summer since they started playing, and I figured it made sense that he should say something about the best band of the 90′s that actually exists right now. San Francisco is full of jangly guitars, but only Cruel Summer combines it with shoe gaze to sound like your favorite band when you were fifteen. Turns out Jay was a total dick about it and wouldn’t give me anything, so I pasted our chat below and made the post about that instead. How you like them apples?
Jesse: Hey, can you give me a review of Cruel Summer, like whatever your brain spits out right now?
Jay: no
Jesse: I want a quote or a line
Jay: fuckkk
Jay: didn’t they get voted best new sf band or something?
Jesse: just give me something that comes to mind
Jay: do the internet on them
Jesse: no dummy, I can do that but I want you give me something from your brain
Jay: i gotta run
Jesse: ah, you bastard. you say classic shit all the time except when I need you to!
Cruel Summer plays with Pink Films for free on Saturday April 7th for the Hotel Party release show at DAMB on 14th Street in San Francisco. Come by and see why those two bands rule so hard.
