My first listen - read about the sessions in last months Harp... seems ok so far...

Really old skool

I'm just old skool with my new skool.... or something I quite liked that 'Lil Chris single actually!! NP:

Pish skool (only joking - I'm not ACTUALLY playing this pile of steaming turd)

new skool

I really enjoyed the new CYHSY! album... it's certainly a lot darker and less upbeat than their debut, I like it... NP:

Desert Hearts - Hotsy Totsy Nagasaki

Windmill - Puddle City Racing Lights This is quite bizarrely wonderful... Got sent the album to review, its like Mercury Rev / Flaming Lips with a twist of The Earlies or Arcade Fire http://www.myspace.com/windmillband

Apart from a painting of a horse in flames, what is that?

Yes! I saw them support the No Cities Left album and they were really good... I was a bit disappointed in the new one though...

Yeah, I was hoping to catch him live, but he's playing the night before the Decemberists gig in London, so not sure I've got the stamina for it! I was a big fan of Million Dead too, saw them in Cambridge, fucking loud they were to, some of my mates walked out! But this is a bit of a change of direction, that's for sure.

I really, really liked that...

Yeah, that's my problem with it - there's some absolute gems on there but there's also some very average songs too... For me:

Beautiful, initially, doesn't seem the right word to use to describe it... in places I found it quite brutal, but it's an amazing film - a very dark fairy tale...

guys!

I this...
