Too Pure? Man, that was a seal of quality for a long time, IMHO. Long Fin Kille, Minxus, Lika, Moonshake…

It reminds me of all the I get of punk-pop teen bands on Universal Motown. Blurggh.

I only knew Too Pure as “that label that put out McLusky and Future of the Left records”. As long as FotL has a label to release stuff on, i’m happy, regardless of imprint.

Any news involving more v23 covers is a good thing.

Now that McLusky, Hefner, and Electrelane are no more, my interest in Too Pure has decreased quite a bit. However, I still am sad to think that a new Seefeel record (please please please) would be a 4AD affair. Even though they were on Warp and Rephlex, they will always be synonymous with Too Pure to me.

Kinda sad, been a lot of memorable songs in my life from Beggars Banquet, especially.
