#Graham Bailey

[bandcampsnoop]

8/16/24.

Second Layer (London, UK) is really a side project from Adrian Borland and Graham Bailey of The Sound. I know I got the reissue of "Jeopardy" in 2011, but I have zero recollection of the background of said acquisition.

I learned about Second Layer a couple of weeks ago when I was scrolling through the label 1972. I was buying the Felt 2 LP bundle from Stranded and I was perusing the label. I listened to Second Layer and appreciated their electronic post-punk sound. Frankly, Second Layer reminds me of the excellent new Osees album.

Well, Stranded is at it again. You can get the 2 LP bundle of Second Layer for a mere $30 (only available until midnight tonight). "World Of Rubber" is the other LP, but there isn't any music available on Bandcamp. But, it is available on YouTube.

Stranded mentions that Second Layer have a lot in common with Suicide. I would add Joy Division to the comparison.

Hey! Im so happy there is a Klonnie blog! If it was Bonnie that had the miracle baby instead of Hayley, what would their fancast be? Also what ideas do you have for klonnie baby names? (assuming they dont just go with Hope)

glad there’s a fandom to boost up this ship with! I’m going to take a page out some of my mutuals book and go with Bailey Bass. I can see earthy-themed, cottagecore, old-school, classical and Nordic names for their child.

On to Bailey’s casting she has Kat's heart shaped face and JM's dimples. Kat/Bonnie's brown/green eyes. She’s a good cast. She’s already played a vampire before as Claudia. Here’s some visuals.

Brian forgot how to fully button shirts. bell bottoms. same hair for 50 years. no misses. even after Freddie got sick and started wearing makeup and had to grow a beard to cover up, MAN NEVER FUCKIN MISSED. he was beautiful to the day he died. and thats not even touching on the leather daddy look from the early 80s.king shit. we love wrinkles and laugh lines in this gd house. if they don't sweep I’m blowing this whole website up we was glam”

catch,   sender catches receiver by the waist after they bump into each other.

heart had shattered in her chest, pair of skates tied across his shoulders weren’t incriminating on their own. but the hockey stick had been. sworn to her father that she would not date another hockey player, disappointed him enough as it is - did not need another disapproving lecture from him. it had hurt more, walking away from @literare than when she had woken up to caleb’s ‘we’re over’-text after her coma. barely sleeps or eats, a shell of who she had been when they first met. supposed to let go of him, proven to be impossible. driving from briar to harvard on multiple accounts, just to catch glimpses of him on the ice. upholding the promise to stay and spend time, even if it was from a relatively safe distance. an excited and lingering crowd flocks the exits of the harvard hockey arena, trying to push through - instead she stumbles into someone. arm snaking around her waist, heart leaping in her chest - the comforting smell of him that still lingers in the shirt she still wears to bed intensifying 100-fold. body recognising him before her mind does, leaning into his touch instantly - it feels like home.     ❝ ethan, ❞     she croaks, teary-eyed she gazes up at him. bottom lip quivering while fingers desperately curl into his jacket, found him and while her head may scream at her to let him go, her body simply refuses.
