"Metro Subterranean" is a 4 band split recently released by San Francisco based label/store Dark Entries Records. I was introduced to the label years ago when I bought both Lives of Angels reissues. We also posted about the Sad Lovers & Giants reissue.

The album starts with Bastidas, a more recent band (started in 2007 and apparently still active). The next three bands - UltraViolet Catastrophe (UVC), Pink Stiletto, and Nervous Gender all are from the late 70s and early 80s.

Post-punk, goth and disco sounds can be found her. UVC hit me most immediately due to their minimalist sound reminiscent of Young Marble Giants.

Do you guys ever just start getting paranoid and start to think that all your closest friends secretly hate you and find you annoying so you start remembering every single slip up you made around them or things that you regret saying/doing? Or is it just me?

Sad Lovers & Giants have been on my distant radar for years and years. But I never really got around to listening to them. And I almost didn't again. I was listening to the very cool Sylvester album released by San Francisco based label Dark Entries. This label is so cool - anything from Blues Lawyer to Sylvester to Sad Lovers & Giants.

Sad Lovers & Giants (Watford, England) were a late 1970s early 1980s band - and they do have a sound from that era. Unmistakeable touchstones are The Cure, The Smiths and The Chameleons. But they also remind me of another great Dark Entries band reissue - Lives of Angels.

Honestly, do yourself a solid. Spend some time checking out the Dark Entries catalogue.

Little things to be more charming ౨ৎ

holding eye contact when speaking to someone. takes some practice but so so worth it <3

don't be shy about your niche interests!! even if people don't fully get it, it makes you interesting!!

remember people's names!!

accept compliments, don't go "oh noo you're too kind I'm so ugly I look awful blah blah blah" when people say something nice to you.

signature pen. Don't question it. every cool girl has a signature pen.

always look out for others, make sure no one feels left out when you hang out with a group, check up on your friends, etc etc

listen closely and think before you speak, that way you won't stumble over your words and appear more collected and calm! :)

"please" and "thank you" ALWAYS.

you don't have to be perfect at something to have fun. I'm terrible at golf (a danger to myself and others) but people don't mind and think it is cute and fun... a win-win for me lmao

dressing up? normal to you. Don't save your cute outfits for "special" days; every day is special and you deserve to look gorgeous. <3

Oh and sit up straight ;)

As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions and tips in the comments! <3
