Quite possibly the best post-Britpop band of them all imo, but fuck me do I love the overtly-Welsh 'fuck you' Godfather/choral singing shit going on here, like what on fuckin earth I love the Welsh this is iconic :D
nowhere else are you gonna hear a welsh choral section singing 'luca brasi, he sleeps with the fishes' to a good solid rock powerchord hook :D

What if post-punk was still the dominant genre? Would the world be more peaceful?
In the late ’90s, the post-punk revival emerged from the depths of the New York music scene, with bands like Interpol and The Strokes leading the charge. This revival breathed new life into the genre, offering an alternative to the oversaturation of nu-metal and post-Britpop bands. But what if this revival never waned? What if post-punk remained at the forefront of alternative music? Let’s…

boy meets girl; jess mariano
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
cute imagine with jess meeting a certain other gilmore daughter! not sure if it’s a series yet, we’ll see!
words: approx 1.6k
Walking through the doorway, the dark haired boy couldn't think of anywhere he'd want to be less. Just that morning, the woman who introduced herself as Lorelai, had told him that she had two daughters about his age. He can't be completely sure as he wasn't exactly 'actively listening' but by the time his brain had caught up to what his ears were hearing, the idea of twins living in such a town like Stars Hollow had him thinking everyone was cartoon characters. Jess Mariano couldn't picture anything other than identical twins in matching outfits, with the same comedic, animated personalities as the whole town.
Following the source of the noise and clatter into the kitchen, against his will, Jess shared a small greeting to the first of the matching set, Rory. Seemingly, the calmest and least annoying of the group yet, he noted. After being subjected to talk of lemons and being quizzed to no end about his dietary requirements, Jess slipped away from the chaos to what he believed was the living room. Taking in its state, he noticed the odd arrangement of the table and decided that it must not be its permeant place. He glanced down at his watch from beneath his dark grey hoodie sleeve, and looks at the time. Simultaneously, the boy's ears pricked up at the sound of David Bowie that came from up the stairs.
Curiosity and boredom getting the better of him, he climbed the stairs one at a time, planks creaking under each step. All aspects of politeness gone from Jess since he stepped off the bus earlier apparent, as he waltzed though the open bedroom door at the opposite end of the landing. His eyes surveyed the room as some excitement sparked there as he took in the posters, stacked CDs and endless amount books overflowing the shelves. The dark haired boy's gaze landing on where the music is coming from as it changes intro Big Exit by PJ Harvey.
Meanwhile, the brunette girl dragged a comb through her bangs one last time before placing it back onto the bathroom counter with a curse as she noticed the time. Happy with her final decision pertaining to her outfit, she hopped on one foot into the hallway as she pulls her knee high sock up her shin to its full length. Just as the dark haired boy turns to leave the bedroom he was currently standing in.
"Oh my-! Jesus Christ, way to give a girl a fright!" The girl heaves, with a hand placed on her chest. She eyed the boy as he opened his mouth to say something, not before a persistent sing song interrupts them.
"Reyaaa, Jess! Party's moved to the living room!" Lorelai enthusiastically announces up the stairs.
"Coming!" The girl yells over the banister before walking back over to the now-named mystery boy.
"Jess huh? Guessing you're Luke's nephew, right?"
"Nothing gets past you ay" Monotonal, Jess replied as he quirked his eyebrow.
"I'm Freya." Pair complete. "You know you're acting very nonchalant for a boy I just caught snooping in my room."
The boy in question scratches the back of his head slowly. "Wasn't snooping, just looking, admiring even. 'S a difference." His mind refused to believe his heart just skipped a beat as they both lined up in her bedroom doorway, only inches apart as Jess leans on the side of it. Her sparkly, brown eyes invoked a certain feeling in him when they made eye contact.
Freya gently pads across her floor to her CD player and speaker as she presses pause. "You like Bowie?" She questions.
"Yea, it's what made me come upstairs." The brunette turns to share a grin with the boy now hovering by her bookshelves. "Aren't we hooked on phonics?" Jess murmurs.
Letting out a chuckle she replies, "Do you read?"
"Not much." As he picks up a book to examine the cover.
"I could lend you that it's great!" She exclaims as she finally takes in the dark haired boy standing in her room. His grey hoodie nearly fully zipped, paired with dark jeans that rest loosely on his hips. His eyebrows furrowing as his dark brown eyes bore into a page in the book. She felt a blush creeping into her cheeks as she finds herself aware of how handsome he really is.
With a shrug, he put the book back, "No thanks."
Trying to hide her disappointment at the rejection, Freya tried to change the subject.
“Okay erm well I think we-”
“Do these open?” Jess cut her off as he gestured to the window.
“Oh.. yeah, just unlatch then push.” She said as she awkwardly stood by her bed,
“So shall we…?” The girl looked at him with confusion before what he’s referring to clicked.
“Oh, I promise you even if you could climb down, there’s nowhere to bail to.” Slightly bored at the interaction, Freya walked over to her door. “I get you have the need to do or say the opposite of whatever people, in this case Luke, wants you to do, but I’m so hungry. And Sookie, while borderline insane, is a really good cook, so as much as I hate to say it, you’re on your own.”
“You don’t know anything about me.” The boy replied dryly.
“I know!” Freya replied softly with an amused glint in her eyes, knowing his response proves her point. “Come downstairs and eat and you can tell me all about you.” She flirted as she looked over her shoulder while holding the door handle.
Jess let out a smirk while he looked down at his shoes and shaking his head.
Taking that and his silence as a no, the girl stepped through the doorway. “Well, close the door behind you, or the…window? Which ever one you end up using.” She said with a smile on her lips.
Descending down the stairs, Freya couldn’t help but notice the warm curiosity growing inside her at the thought of the boy.
౨ৎ
Checking her watch, the brunette decreased the pace of her steps back to a walk as she headed for Stars Hollow Books. In a miscommunication with her, not so happy, Mom, she had been told the time rounded up, hence the original hurrying, but alas the girl will make it before the store shuts for the evening.
While walking, her mind wandered back to the mismatched stories of the last 24 hours. After having met Jess, although not massive on the manners or socialising, considering he had just moved was perfectly reasonable. However all Freya had heard for the last day from her Mom was the verbal abuse of his character. Even Luke’s too due to their recent fight that even trumps Sid and Nancy, just to add to the confusion even more.
She heard Jess come down the stairs a moment after her while she was passing plates along, but didn’t see him after that. Further developing the mystery that’s been stuck in her mind.
Fiddling with the plastic handle between her fingers, the girl walks out of the Market with a textbook and a folder she desperately needed.
Lost in thought, she crossed the road with her house as her destination, when a familiar voice snapped her out of it.
“Hey.” Freya snaps her head round to look at the boy who she seemed to have summoned by thinking about him.
“Hey, yourself.”
“What’re you doing out here this time of night?” Jess questions with raised eyebrows.
“Just getting somethings I needed for school, how about you?”
“Oh yeah same.” He dismisses.
“You know, it was quite the disappearing act you pulled yesterday.” The brown eyed girl brought up, after a moment of almost awkward silence between them.
“Huh- yeah, as tempting as your offer was, tupperware parties and potlucks really aren’t my thing.” He replied as he untucked his hands from his pockets.
“Just too cool for school huh.” She said, amused as she took him in, his puffer vest, his watch resting on his wrist and a coin he’s moving in his hands. “What’re you doing?” The girl questions.
“Oh this-” Showing her the coin, answered “Just another little disappearing act.” As he revealed his hand as empty of said coin.
Suppressing a giggle, Freya shines him a smile with creased eyes.
“Jess, if you ever want to speak to me again, please don’t pull that out my ear.”
After cracking a smile that unlocked a sense of accomplishment in the girl, replied. “Understood.”
“Hey, I like your shirt.” Jess complimented.
Looking down at it to check which one she happened to throw on earlier, she grinned once more. “Thanks! How much Beatles stuff do you know?” She asked excitedly, her eyes illuminated.
“Oh, only the stuff that everyone does, I wouldn’t have been lined up to be one of their groupies that’s for sure.” He joked.
“Hey, speak for yourself, I adore them, I would’ve been pushing other girls out the way. I adore any British band to be completely honest.” Freya spoke with excitement.
“I know, your room isn’t exactly keeping that a secret you’know.” He referenced the multitude of Britpop, The Smiths and The Beatles posters spaced on her walls. Jess couldn’t help but marvel at the way her face flushed at the prolonged eye contact and his comment.
Snapping out of her trance, the girl glanced down at his arm and gently held his sleeve to check the time. The boy’s body grew alert at the touch. “Shit! I’ve got to go in a sec, I hadn’t realised the time.”
“Oh, well in that case, I’ll leave you with one last magic trick. He dramatically stated as he pulls a familiar book out of his pocket.
“You bought a copy? I told you I’d lend you mine!”
“It is yours.”
“You stole my book!” She accused, dumbfounded.
“Well, I just wanted to put some notes in the margins for you.” He handed the book over, as he tried not to let his mind linger on the way their hands touched.
The girls eyes furrowed in confusing as she flicked through the pages.
Looking up innocently, “I thought you said you didn’t read much?”
“Well what is much?” The boy replied with a drawn out shrug and smirk. “Goodbye, Reya.”
Desperate to hide her slight astonishment, smirked as she began to walk away.
“Goodbye, Dodger.”
After a few paces, she looks back to be met with a smug grin. “Oliver Twist.”
The brown haired girl couldn’t help but share the grin while she nodded. Despite all the things she had heard about him in the last day, she couldn’t help but feel giddy at their interactions. The twin secretly hoped there would be more in the future.
