Summary

5 things (to write on your hand) about Mew 1. Mew sound sort of like Sigur Ros covering Sunny Day Real Estate. 2. Their first record came out via a book publisher and was limited to 2000 copies. It now sells for over $100 on eBay. 3. Ran into J. Mascis in sneaker store in Denmark and convinced him to sing on their album. 4. Mew and the 'Glass Handed Kites' are ranked No. 2 in Entertainment Weekly's 'Must List.' 5. Managed by Alan McGee, who also brought us Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine, Primal Scream and countless others.
