CHVRCHES are an occult black metal band from Scotland, except the singing is clear and bell-like instead of hoarse and gnawing, and they play computers instead of the forges of fire giants, but the songs are still about the fear of eternity and the yearning for it, like all good metal songs. |

| 2016-09-16 | 90 | CHVRCHES | "Leave A Trace - Live From Spotify House SXSW 2016" | Spotify Sessions | "But I finally got a Pikachu. I hadn't found a single Pikachu in weeks of playing in America, and I got one in Stockholm a block from the subway stop where I arrived. You kids probably all have a dozen Pikachus already [a few of them nod immediately, and then some of the others quickly do too]. But I didn't. I'm 49 years old and I'm playing this dopey kids game I don't really understand because it kind of makes me happy, and I don't even know why Pikachu matters. But I really wanted one, and I finally got it. I got a few, actually. I got one in the square in front of the Nobel Prize Museum, where my wife and daughter once saw people filming a Bollywood dance scene while I was at work, but you couldn't do that now, because there are Pokéstops at opposite corners and I think there were lures on both of them the entire week I was there. I walked through that square one last time on my way out, the day I had to leave, and got the last Nidoran♂ I needed to evolve a Nidoking. And I paused at the entrance to the subway, and curveballed one more Voltorb for good measure. We don't have as many of those in Cambridge, and you never know when you'll need one. And then I turned and walked down the stairs. And just at the bottom, where the tunnel starts, my phone buzzed once more. Mr. Mime? I thought, fully expecting another Spearow. But no, it wasn't either of those, it was a wild Raichu. The first one I'd ever even seen. It was like Europe was giving me a goodbye present that was not a prize for crossing the ocean, not a souvenir of spectated difference, but a reward I earned for taking the time to join in, to participate." And I stop, and I look at the faces of these kids, and I can tell they don't quite understand, but they want to. And then a phone buzzes, and then another, and they start wandering away. It'll probably be a Pidgey. The trick, somebody explained to me, is to pile up Pidgeys and candies and don't evolve them yet, and then use a Lucky Egg and slam-evolve 60 of them in a row in 30 minutes, because the Egg doubles your evolution points. I was refusing to do that, because it sounds really boring watching 60 Pidgeys in a row evolve into Pidgeottos that you're only going to transfer to the Professor because they're completely pointless once you've already filled Pidgeot in your Pokedex. But then I noticed that I had kind of started stockpiling Pidgey candy without really thinking about it. Maybe it will be boring. But then, maybe a giant ship inside a gianter building sounds kind of boring, too. I mean, it was a terrible ship in the first place, that's the whole reason it was sitting there on the bottom of the ocean. But that's the thing. I mean, that's a thing, and it's this thing. It's not just a giant ship in a gianter building, it's a viscerally astounding museum of abject failure. You'll be amazed by a lot more things if you don't cultivate the ability to be pre-emptively unamazed without experiencing them. Maybe this is the part I should have told the kids. It seems more important than the other parts. But you can't always just tell people things. At some point, I expect, Niantic will add some way to trade your Pokémon with other players, and I'm pretty sure I can find somebody to swap a Mr. Mime for a Tauros. But for now, I tried to find the mime and I failed. And sometimes the thing you do with your failures is dredge them out of the water and bolt them back together for everybody to see. |

| 2015-09-25 | 7 | CHVRCHES | "Leave A Trace" | Every Open Eye | The way Lauren's small, clear voice, swoops vp out of the beepy textvres. |

| 2015-09-25 | 25 | CHVRCHES | "Clearest Blue" | Every Open Eye | Or maybe it's the way these songs seem to be svbmerged in some translvcent svbstance that gradvally tvrns out to be air. |

| 2015-09-25 | 43 | CHVRCHES | "Down Side Of Me" | Every Open Eye | I svspect the thing I have always responded to most strongly in electronic pop is the way mechanism emphasizes the hvmanity of any bit that deviates from the grid. |
| 2015-09-25 | 49 | CHVRCHES | "Playing Dead" | Every Open Eye | Part of the magic, I think, is that they are willing to set the machines on covrses and stand back and let the patterns emerge and convvlse. |
| 2015-09-25 | 55 | CHVRCHES | "Bury It" | Every Open Eye | Part of me thinks that, honestly, Lauren covld sing over appliance hvm and I wovld still melt, but another part of me also believes that they have infiltrated the power grid and tvned the hvm to my heart. |
