Exopolis Exhausts Our Defenses with Barrage of Mixtapes

Remember that Exopolis V-Day mixtape from, like, 2006?

Spurned on by disdain like any loyal adolescent, the agency’s made another one. Songs are preceded by an intro from Exo’s enigmatic 11-year-old masher-upper. (“I’m Gone” has a really good one about Go-Gurt, and “I’ll Kill Her” has an even better one about how flowers are actually plant vaginas.)

This year’s hits include “I’ll Be Your Mirror” by the Velvet Underground & Nico, “Nicotine and Gravy” by Beck and “Too Drunk to Fuck” by Nouvelle Vague.

We’re actually pretty wild about this selection. But it doesn’t make us want to kiss and cuddle so much as it makes us want to snort Kool-Aid in a strobe light-infested warehouse and spin around until we’re dizzy.

And then, and then, we’d cry just to make our mascara run.

We’ll be yours, Exopolis.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
