Welsh Rich

There's a proper rip on Oink now - the riffs are certainly more straight metal in places now and I'm convinced there's a hint of new order as well tucked away in the bass lines!

Ahhhh! That new Muse record is well worth a listen though if you haven't done so... great, great stuff.

I was saying that the Thom Yorke one could be my fav of the year so far - should have put it after the picture... It's really grown on me a lot... Now Playing: My iTunes library on random, Ben Folds > Aphex Twin was an interesting switch

I really like it... there's something about it that just haunts me. Can I suggest that this might, surprisingly, be my favourite record of the year so far???? It's certainly a duel between this and Muse...

What do you think? I'll definitely be checking out Slowlands when I get home tonight, sounds interesting... For me this morning:

Okey dokey - if it doesn't work download, drop us a PM.

I can seed it when I get home if you want?

Really liking it - was it you that said they'd sent it to you? I emailed them for a copy to review and they did...

We v Death: We Too Are Concerned / We Are Too Concerned

Likewise... I didn't even send any text messages Sat evening. Was just a poor game and England really should have beaten a lacklustre Portugease side, but as it went to penalties there was always going to be one winner I think. Nice holiday for Theo Walcott though! Germany v France final... France to win now... think their arrogance and swagger is starting to come back and Zidane played exceedingly well against Brazil.

Started this on the weekend - like it so far...

The twee Magic Numbers sound-a-likes starts here... How 80's does this sound in places..... *shudders*

The new session guitarist for New Order used to be in the Sheffield band Marion...

Done, SIR!

My official, more polished review of Wed night! http://www.cdtimes.co.uk/content.php?contentid=3118

Lilys - Everything Wrong Is Imaginary

I've edited my post above yours to reflect the same thing

Andrew... I really like the single and actually looking forward to the album which I wasn't originally. Was looking to see him in London but clashes with another gig I'm going to unfortunately. Really liked this bit: And it certainly applies to me - you can never escape the pull of it, there's always a part of you that gets drawn back and the longer I spend away from Wales (which seems to be more and more now) the more the draw back is...

This is fast becoming one of my favourites of the year so far...

It is a very good album that... Andy Gill in the Independent gave it 3/5 but seemed to say it was really good... I really have no time for him, he's rubbish! I got my promo through of that this week - individually numbered in it's own packaging

Tortoise - A Lazarus Taxon [box set - Disc 1]

Beware - she's hiding those hairy pits!
