They seem okay, nothing brilliant. Blood sports was a good song. They played Pure last month (I think) but thought it would be dead and awkward so I didn't bother. Think they're playing the Cluny soon?
I'll give the album a go anyway.

Two excellent new cds by Explosions in the Sky and Washed out. Highly recommended both.
BTW saw Nadine Shah supporting Ghostpoet and she was dreadfully dirgy. Maybe her album will be better but it seemed to be self indulgent twaddle. Shame as she's local.

The Shouting Matches are shocking if this helps
I really like her album. Not seen her live.
Anyway, new and newish stuff I like
Pond "Hobo Rocket" - cracking psychedelic rock album from the Aussies.
Luke Haines "Rock and Roll Animals" - Mr Haines continues to plough his surreal furrow. An album about Gene Vincent, the cat, Nick Lowe, the badger, and Jimmy Pursey, the fox.
Grant Hart "The Argument" - the Husker Du man is back. Long album, twenty tracks, some sort of vague concept behind it and some cracking tunes!
Future Bible Heroes "Partygoing" - witty electropop from the Magnetic Fields side rpoject, which currently makes better albums than Magnetic Fields do.
I've not mentioned any of the stuff I posted on Harry's ultimate music thread...

be a poppet and post em on here mate, watching this thread there, see.
No problem mate - bands are Dirtmusic, Field Report, Oblivians and Scott & Charlene's Wedding. In order, bluesy world music, indie-folk balladry, old fashioned rock and roll and Australian indie pop.
Have you heard Big Scary? Spotify recommended I try their debut and it's actually enjoyable and very diverse. They've got a new album out but it's not on Spotify yet.
Worth a listen anyway.
I haven't. Will check them out...
It's called Vacation. On the quiet parts his voice is very similar to The Antlers.
Hope we see something from them this year actually.

Really like this guy called Kavinsky's album. Was out earlier in 2013, just like Daft Punk really but its relatively funky fresh

Looking forward to 'Doris' by Earl Sweatshirt.

Listening to Pinkunoizu now. First impressions seem very good, cheers for that.
The Drenge album is an enjoyable listen. Might see them on tour.
Try the Big Deal album if you like this one for similar grungy (wrong description?) guitars and drums.

Grungey, Garagey, Nirvana-ey, whatever.
I'm shite at describing music so I'm never sure.
Whatever it is I like it at the minute. The MONEY album is getting some very good reviews, looking forward to that on Monday, wish I had the money to pre-order it.

Earl Sweatshirt out today. I'll give it a spin later.
