Recession rock

November 19, 2008 | personal finance | Comments (0)

This is fantastic.  Based on the dubious premise that “glam rock” thrived during previous recessions, British rocker Eddi Argos has formed a new glam rock band, Glam Chops.  This is either the dumbest idea ever or a brilliant way to get rich.  We have no idea: 

Forget tax returns and market injections, interest rate cuts and debt consolidation – Art Brut’s Eddie Argos has his own recession-busting plan. And it can be boiled down to two words: glam rock.

Argos has in recent days walked away from shouty speak-sung indie rock and instead been working on a side-project, dubbed Glam Chops. Glam Chops played various festivals this summer, with Argos accompanied by the Vessel, singer from David Devant and his Spirit Wife. And Glam Chops play, well, glam rock. With shouty speak-sung bits.

We’re in awe.  We hope they make millions.
