This is both a very clever 'nod' to Crouton's comments about my titles  and also a chance to ask if anyone has heard anything by this new band. I have heard nothing but they sound kinfd of interesting.
Your thoughts please.
Pixies!?!? Pixies!?!? Don't talk to me about the Pixies!!!.........OK, talk to me about the Pixies!!! |

They suck lots.
I saw them last, ooh, December. I went to watch M83 and Electrelane in support, but !!! were headlining. They seemed like a really lame party version of bands like The Rapture, or Interpol or whatever. We left after they played the same song four times. Possibly.
PS, Don't you think those !'s should be in capitals?

Apparently, its "any three repeated percussive sounds", or some such nonsense. Its usually said "chk-chk-chk"

I've also heard their named pronounced as "Pow Pow Pow". I believe the way it works is that it can be said as "any three repeated percussive sounds".

So, how does one attempt to pronounce this band's name?

| I think it should be bang bang bang, but that is too cool for a band that sucks as much as this one supposedly does. |

Well shoot, I was trying to be creative. I should have said they could take the bullets and put it in their pipes and smoke it.
