i was talking to my mom on the phone last night, as i do once a week, every week, and we got onto the subject of Deine Lakaien.
Yes, my mom knows who they are - she's heard various Lakaien songs coming from my room (when i'm in the USA, that is), and Ingmar and i have made it our business to see that she gets properly educated in everything Lakaien-ish
i sent her White Lies for her birthday last year, and it quickly became one of her favorite albums. (we have also given her WFT, Dark Star live '92, and Dark Star (as a record, not cd), and i plan to keep sending her more and more until she has them all )
anyway, she was telling me how much she liked them, and said something very nice (which was actually the whole point of this thread).
She said, about White Lies, "There are very few perfect albums, and this is one of them."
it sort of blew my mind that she just came out and said it that way, especially since she is someone who has a huge record collection, and likes all kinds of music (including Rammstein, Nine inch Nails, and Hanson!!).
i just wanted to share that little "moment" with all of you...
