small black

small black is a band that falls into that new 'chill-wave' (or is it 'lo-fi) genre, or whatever they're calling it. i really hate that name. i mean, i understand its usefulness: it helps to be able to use a quick tag when trying to describe a new band's sound. but i still hate it. it makes me feel like what could/should have been an organic branch or growth or development in sound in regards to new artists is turned into a fad or trend. the main problem being that trends and fads in music seem to be particularly susceptible to overexposure and subsequent backlash (e.g. the afro-pop influence effect). sorry for the digression. not sure what my point is, but i really like this band's little ep. it's so 'chill.'
