Living Comet Gain
by Mikael Wood
These long-running U.K. lo-fi popsters have never been more than a cult concern here in the States, but now that acts such as the Pains of Being Pure at Heart and Vivian Girls are making twee-core cool again, Comet Gain might be due for an American breakthrough. They’re on tour now in support of Broken Record Prayers, a handy new odds-and-ends roundup out in this country on the superhip What’s Your Rupture? label. With Crystal Stilts and Cold Cave.
