I didn’t want this one to pass unnoticed: Doug Mastriano, the failed GOP candidate for governor of Pennsylvania, thinks the government is using jet vapor trails to manipulate the climate, no doubt cackling and twirling their mustaches all the while.
“Vapour Trail” was the closing track on the first full-length LP by Ride, “Nowhere,” a standard entry on every critic’s list of the top shoegaze albums, and is probably their best-known track. Speculation swirled about how the band got that trebly guitar jangle, but Andy Bell, who wrote and sang the tune, said it was just two 12-string Rickenbackers with no added effects.
