I know I'm tardy

But I can't resist chiming in on Bullette. Everyone else is already going bonkers over her. Hopefully this post will get out to the one person on the Internet who hasn't already heard the word.

What's really interesting to me about this whole Bullette thing is that in just over a week she's become hot shit -- like, majorly. I think it was totally wise and brainy of her to contact all these mp3 bloggers, and even more wise to make her album The Secrets available as a free download. Also, it helps that the record is really good. I'm with a lot of my fellow bloggers in pointing out Your Eyes Have It as a favorite track, but there's plenty of creativity and melodic goodness in every single song. I'm also very fond of Lemonade, Little Bird and Show Me. I hear echoes of The Kinks, Stereolab, Liz Phair, The Breeders ... the list goes on.

Assuming the attention keeps piling on, I can imagine a day when people will look back at Bullette's sudden success as a landmark in rock history. Time will tell.
