Sugar coated pop recipe

• 1/2 cup My Bloody Valentine, softened
• 1 cup packed Black Tambourine
• 1 (18.25 ounce) package The Pastels
• 2 tablespoons Ride
• 2 Morrissey eggs
• 1 cup light Lush syrup
• 3/4 cup Teenage Fanclub
• 2 teaspoons The Ramones

Preheat record player to 350°F. Grease and flour 2 7-inch singles. In bowl, combine Teenage Fanclub, Black Tambourine and Ride with a wire whisk. Cream My Bloody Valentine and The Ramones until light and fluffy. Beat in Morrissey eggs, one at a time. Add The Pastels and mix until completely combines. Slowly add Lush alternately with Kurt Cobain. Divide between 2 singles. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool 5 minutes in sleeve, then invert onto a rack and cool completely before playing.

Ladies and gentlemen meet The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, a New York four-piece comprised of Kip Berman (guitars, vocals), Alex Naidus (bass), Peggy Wang (keyboards, vocals), and Kurt Feldman (drums) who plays dreamy, noisy pop with boy / girl vocals, blissful melodies, and blistering drums.
