AMG-5678’s My source. Thy are open to corrections from readers. Unless I have the wrong group. And here I thought Tarentino was doing something in-jokey.

I would be surprised to learn that the 5678’s had broken up, as I just saw them live two weeks ago.

Hmm. The Dean disagrees, but then I haven’t really been able to trust him reliably since 1992 or so. (I suppose that’s how you know a great rock critic, they’re still followed well past their prime.) I’ve flipped through a few of their track samples on Amazon and rather like them. For a grittier city sound, have you heard of Poem Rocket? Someone said that like all great NY bands, they ultimately sound like the city. And this from a Chicago guy. Scott

AMG-Buffalo Daughters Just another link. While I was surfing AMG, having just seen Kill Bill v1 the other night for the first time…I wait for cable…I thought I would look up the girl-group in the House of Blue Leaves scene. I guess the song was “Woo Hoo” by the 5-6-7-8’s, but that group according to AMG had disbanded before the movie was made. Umm, okay.

A lot of Japanese music is like that. I guess it’s a lot like the Japanese city culture, a lot of western elements, things you can find in any major city taken to extremes or turned into something else altogether. I would also recommend Pizzicato Five or Cibo Matto.
