MP3: After Christmas - Division by Photographs
Review:
They wind themselves up then began ambitiously spiralling around you, whilst doing 360s themselves - baiting you. You aren’t having none of it. They follow you anyway, spinning. They gradually overtake you, and you start spinning, but get dizzy and have to sit down on a park bench. Their indie-pop acquired energy is a little too much for you. afterchristmas are from glasgow and have played gigs with the thermals and midlake. it is all very mysterious.
(Or alternately: Like your Grandaddy kicking you in The Shins for insulting his newly aquired Flaming Lips, which he went to great effort to come by. Take that professional music journalists*: I can play silly games too!)

good post, Mike.
Sadly Mike, Afterchristmas are no more. Unfortunately they have moved on to the graveyard of bands who did not quite make it. Despite their undoubted ability and happy music,they have gone where others with less ability have x factored it in elevator music heaven.
So Sad :(
Ahh JR dont despair.. Though afterchristmas are indeed no more, watch out for the butterfly that evolves from the caterpiller.
