22 east end underworld just_started_re.html 2003-09-10 2003 9 reviews https://www.russelldavies.com/typepad/russelldavies.typepad.com/planning/2003/09/just_started_re.html <p>just started reading <a href="https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0375704515/104-8434517-9701558?v=glance">nobrow</a> by john seabrook. seems very good so far. but it reminded me how slightly odd it seems when american's describe british music and musicians. he describes <em>underworld</em> as an 'essex-based' band which, I guess, is kinda true, but seems completely off any point. I suppose we do the same when we talk about american music, though maybe not, we're more familiar with their culture than they are with ours. still, looks like it's going to be an interesting read.</p> just started reading nobrow by john seabrook. seems very good so far. but it reminded me how slightly odd it seems when american's describe british music and musicians. he describes underworld as an 'essex-based' band which, I guess, is kinda true, but seems completely off any point.
