This could easily be put in the previous thread after a bit of a mention of PWEI, but its getting a little long, and while I can still figure out the roman numerals.... I'm listening to a brilliant double CD compilation called cd86 about the c86 indie pop 'movement' features Primal SCream, PWEI, The Wolfhounds, The Wedding Present, J&MC, The Darling Buds and Half Man Half Biscuit. 48 tracks on 2 cds, it comes highly recommended by Mr Evans. Cheers Jon | ||

Yeah, that's already down for my Christmas stocking! Should be good for a nostalgic sniffle at New Year. | ||

Jon, while looking for the CD I mentioned on another thread earlier I came across my still unplayed copy of CD86! Glad to hear it's good. One of these days I'll find out for myself! | ||

Padraig, I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds CDs still sealed and unplayed months after purchase (mainly CDSingles mind). Maybe I have a problem! Cheers Jon | ||

Ben Folds Five - Whatever & Ever Amen One of my fave albums ever. I dug this so much back in late '90's, it got me through the day, coming out of shitty meetings with clients a the last design agency i was at, used to feel exasperated, then I'd jump in the car and bang this on). Consistently great throughout and just a piano (played absurdly well), bass and drums, sounded like fIrehose in places, not a guitar in sight too, love his voice, love the anger and there's a tiny bit of cello allowed too, for good measure. | ||

A double live CD by Soft Cell called Say Hello, Wave Goodbye : Live. It features stuff from various 2003 gigs, and is a little over 2 hours. Also a band called The Boat People from Australia, maybe some experts might have a bit of info on them? Cheers Jon | ||

i really liked BFF back then too spence...the pianee is a little bit contagious! though for some reason i always recall that album including "army" and then every time i put it on and realise it isn't, i'm sorely dissapointed. alas, song for the dumped, battle of who could care less, smoke and one angry dwarf are of more than slight consolation. jon - is that cd the complete set of the dvd release of the same name? which i never actually got. the shopping list expandeth... | ||
| Jonathan Evans Member Username: Jon Post Number: 260 Registered: 04-2005 |
Joe No idea to be honest, I doubt it as its recorded at various venues...is the DVD a single gig? It runs to about 128 minutes if that helps. It brings back a lot of memories, I was always a bit of an outsider and synth music in the early 80s wasn't to fashionable in sunny backwater Widnes. Cheers Jon | ||

The Beautiful South - Golddiggas, Headnodders & Pholk Songs. Two songs in and, well, it's hardly essential. I got it for $5. | ||
| joe Member Username: Dogmansuede Post Number: 558 Registered: 07-2006 |
well at least it wasn't from "the essential" series. they generally go for 10 or 15. that brings to mind something i was thinking about earlier - songs you can't stand/never ever need to hear again but, inexplicably, are on your ipod. funky town (any version really) heads up my list. | ||

| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 1239 Registered: 09-2006 |
Padraig, I've found that Golddiggas has grown on me...it's patchy, as many covers albums are, but there's some nice stuff there, like the Latinized "Don't Fear the Reaper," "Valentine," "This Old Skin," (which is a ringer, it turns out, but a good song) | ||
| Pádraig Collins Member Username: Pádraig_collins Post Number: 2435 Registered: 05-2005 |
Allen, I was on the verge of putting it into the charity shop donation bag until Don't Fear... came on. You're right, it's great. Right now I'm listening to Jim Noir's Tower Of Love. It's The Beach Boys on a tiny recording budget, but it's very good. I'd like to hear what he could come up with with some serious money and a proper studio behind him. | ||

Eddie Current Suppression Ring. This Melbourne band provide a superb blast of punkoid energy. Really enjoying their latest album 'Primary Colours' which is chock full of great songs. By all accounts they are one of the best live bands in Australia with a charasmatic frontman. Based on the clips I've seen he has more than a touch of Ian Curtis about him (see below). Looking foward to seeing them next month at the Homebake festival here in Sydney. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEfyptFzm OY | ||

| Stuart Wilson Member Username: Stuart Post Number: 244 Registered: 10-2006 |
Malcolm Middleton - Sleight of Hand and A Brighter Beat. Great pop, sardonic lyrics and a Scots accent. Everyone's going home with blue plastic bags/five cans of Stella, Jacob's Creek and twenty fags... Loving these two discs to bits & grinning out loud all the way through. Nice to hear something that makes you think: Now, if I could just play the guitar and sing a wee bit, that's what I'd be doing. Well, I'd probably shove on girlie back-up and brass I suppose. "And we're all listening to downbeat shite." And indeed we probably are. | ||

For the past year (and for the foreseeable future) I've been living and working at a meditation retreat center in the boonies of SW Washington state. Also, for the first time in 23 years I've been driving, mostly an old gray van that belongs to the center, and which has a radio with a tape deck. The incalculable lameness of every last radio station within receiving range has driven me to haunt the thrift shops in town and snap up tapes. Though the selection isn't that much more extensive than the radio, I've been able to find a few goodies, many of them albums it's been nice to reconnect with. So, this is part of What I've Been Listening To Lately: Bruce S. - Greetings From Asbury Park NJ My goodness, listen to this gawky young sprout go...he's still too much a starry-eyed Dylanite at this point, and he had a ways to go in deepening and modulating his sense of fatalism, but his good-natured enthusiasm just about makes up for it. Fleetwood Mac - Eponymous Just a lovely, expansive piece of work, with two great Lindsey tunes beginning and ending things and probably my favorite Christine ("Over My Head"). Madonna - Erotica This came out during a time of overexposure in general and the publication of the 'Sex' book specifically, when people were just sick and tired of her pushing her smirk (and other parts of her anatomy) in their faces, and so this one got underrated, but boy it holds up. Aside from the title tune and the euphemistic one about cunnilingus it's not very dirty at all, which turns out to be a good thing. Just great flow, production, tunes, attitude, etc. Ace of Base - The Sign OK, slag if you must. This definitely isn't in the same league as the other finely crafted insanely catchy bubblegum that I love (like ABBA, ELO, The Cars), but it's not bad, and does fine if there's none of those others are around. And I admit that from the growl in her voice to the "uh-eh-eh" after each repetition of the chorus line in "All That She Wants," the singer hits my personal sexy sweet spot every time. | ||

Cheers Jon, I always liked Warren Cann's drumming, he looked cool, in a Stephen Morris type o way. Billy Currie, I saw a clip with him on keys for Gary Numan way back it was a great version, funny how the sounds of the flanged bass and chorus/flanged guitar are quite Magazinesque http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu6MDdxBor k | ||

What do you think of the Painkiller Hugh? They're playing round here in the next month or so. | ||
| Geoff Holmes Member Username: Geoff Post Number: 419 Registered: 05-2005 |
Just got "Jungle Blues" by CW Stoneking. Very 1930's! There's 1 killer song, "The Love Me or Die" plus some other interesting pieces. Can't wait to see him tomorrow night at the Heritage hotel in Bulli - the venue should be perfect for him. Also got "Modern Guilt" by Beck. Seems Ok on first listen. Gamma Ray is already getting stuck in my brain with that awkward, stammering riff that somehow sounds vaguely 60's. Has anyone heard the first song "Orphans"? That melody is a riff off but I can't place where. | ||
| Hugh Nimmo Member Username: Hugh_nimmo Post Number: 119 Registered: 03-2007 |
Geoff, I really like 'Painkiller' but that is hardly surprising as I am a huge fan of Kilbey's solo work. My only criticism of the album would be the long run out at the end of Track 11. I would have been happy to see the song end around the 12 minute mark. Just pray they do not play that one in its entirety next month. It sounds as though Steve enjoyed making the album so you could be in for a good gig when it comes round. Let me know how it goes. I take it you have a copy of the album? I love his artwork on the disc/sleeve. Currently listening to 'Folk Songs' by Mike Noga ( produced by J Walker/Machine Translations.) | ||

don't know what is wrong with mr. engel, but ever listened to this album only once. tilt from 1995 wasn't easy, but this one is hard stuff, but i think i should try it once again. thanks fro remembering, dr. girlfriend. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1823 Registered: 03-2005 |
I confess I thought "Drift" was pure self-parody. I actually laughed out loud at it at one point on my one and only listen. It's never been played since. It's a shame. He should just do some pop tunes. | ||
| Dr Girlfriend Member Username: Doctor_girlfriend Post Number: 66 Registered: 10-2007 |
Maybe it is an elaborate joke on gullible cult followers--"how far will you follow me?" While listening to "The Drift," I found myself thinking "what did I ever do to Scott to make him want to torture me like this?" That said, "Cossacks Are" (the blatant sellout, made-for-the-charts leadoff track) ain't too bad. Then the slab-of-pork-punching percussion starts on the next track and it all went seriously wrong. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1824 Registered: 03-2005 |
Gee, I'll have to play it again. I don't remember ANY made-for-the-charts numbers at all. | ||
| Dr Girlfriend Member Username: Doctor_girlfriend Post Number: 67 Registered: 10-2007 |
It's all relative, Randy. "Cossacks Are" at least has a beat and electric guitar, so it's feels like, say, "Bye Bye Pride" in comparison to "Clara" and the rest of "The Drift." | ||

| Jeff Whiteaker Member Username: Jeff_whiteaker Post Number: 1460 Registered: 10-2004 |
Ha! Your Gameboy theme comparison is spot-on! Don't worry, I would never expect the ever-forward looking Momus to rehash the sound of his heyday, but you've got me curious about what the new album sounds like. Hell, even if Momus was back to simply writing some decent songs, that would be a good start. | ||

| Ewan Talisker McEwan Member Username: Ewan_mcewan Post Number: 504 Registered: 02-2008 |
Funny you should put it that way, CV. I was thinking along those lines about them. You know that song by the late, great Minnie Ripperton, "Lovin' You", and that mad, over the top high note she hits at its, well, climax? "La la la la la", etc., then that god-a-mighty note that'll shatter every window in your house, every stem of glassware on the shelves. It's as though they took that concept, that note, and made a band out of it! | ||
| joe Member Username: Dogmansuede Post Number: 564 Registered: 07-2006 |
the thing that i find unique about the cocteaus is that i find it all too easy to miss the fact she's not singing actual words. it's only when i have to type any of them, which understandably isn't too often, i suddenly realise it's all gobbeldigook. snaps for context! | ||
| Jeff Whiteaker Member Username: Jeff_whiteaker Post Number: 1463 Registered: 10-2004 |
joe - the funny thing is, robyn guthrie once claimed in an interview that liz *does*, for the most part, sing actual words. he said it's just the way she phrases them, and the semi-nonsensical way in which she strings them together, that makes them incomprehensible. but maybe he was just bluffing? | ||
| joe Member Username: Dogmansuede Post Number: 565 Registered: 07-2006 |
i swear i read somewhere they were all but random....especially the earlier material. one of my favourite aspects of heaven or las vegas is that you can almost but almost make the lyrics out for the first time. thankfully, there's enough magic weaved there to ensure they remain a mystery. which might be for the best. imagine if she was just singing about going down the corner shop for a carton of eggs and a packet of fags? | ||

"Do you have any Abba records?" "I used to have but Sean (my brother) has them in Ireland." "How about that record of other people singing Abba songs?"

Jungle Blues - CW Stoneking. Great late 1920's/early 1930's blues/jazz/calypso. I saw him last thursday and he's a real character on stage too with slicked back hair, a white linen suit and a red bow tie, plucking away on a tenor banjo and a resonator! The song that's on the radio (if you know where to listen) is about a hoodoo charm called "The Love me or die". You can guess what happens in that one! | ||

The double-disc C86 antho, a handy sampler for my purposes. This set reminds me of my two favorite vinyl-only collections released in the late 1970s devoted specifically to the lesser known or unknown bands of 1963 and 1964. It's got that same focus and depth. | ||

Beyonce - I am...Sasha Fierce. Why can't she see how much I love her? Beck - Mellow Gold. Smiths - Sound of. A rilly nice compo, as Randy would call it. Y'know, I've been a casual on and off fan of theirs for years, but lately, appreciate them more than ever. Their stuff really seems made to last. I had, btw, a copy (on vinyl) of "Strangeways", but it left no impression, apart from "Girlfriend In a Coma", which I think is a seriously great song, though, probably, far from serious. I think lyrically Morrisey was 'avin' a laff. Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid. Cool as shit... | ||

ewan...what do you think of beyonce's record? great sleeve, granted...but it's being panned all round. i think destiny's child released some of the best singles of their time (as well as a whole lot of average ones), but for all of beyonce's rabid exposure, i just haven't heard anything to back it up. even crazy in love shat me very quickly indeed. crazier still....the freemason's remix of kelly rowland's "work" is right up in my top #5 of the year. i'm more shocked than anyone. i thought elbow had split up! where are the doves at then? | ||
| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 1284 Registered: 09-2006 |
I'm guessing not, joe...a friend of mine (who made me an excellent Elbow comp) saw them play not long ago here in the states. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the ins and outs of the band to say what's up with the Doves. Though it's somewhat patchy, I liked Beyonce's last one pretty well.

the poor doves, everyone goes nuts over them for two weeks every few years when a record comes out (myself, topping the list) and then promptly never listens to or thinks about them again. given their vintage, etc i tend to lump elbow into the same basket. i love guy's voice...a decent record then? agreed....i think they hit their stride with the writing's on the wall. bugaboo, bills, jumpin jumpin were all gloriously infectious. that's the bootylicious mashup you're referring to? it's good stuff. lose my breath outshines anything beyonce's ever put her (solo) name to! | ||

Elbow are very much still going. In fact they recently won a major award, The Mercury, which is the UK equivalent of the Shortlist in the US - eg only perceived cool albums get voted for - no obvious chart favourites allowed. Their stock has never been higher in the UK. They bore me shitless. | ||

Well, admittedly, Elbow are no Hall and Oates, but I still find them pretty faskanatin'. And their lead singer is truly a fine vocalist. It's not shocking at all that they're getting awards -they're really good. As far as I know, they're completely a going concern. Seldom Seen Kid, I could look it up if I weren't so lazy, juuuust came out, I'm pretty sure. And yes, AB, I think "Grounds for Divorce" is the "drinking song" you refer to. It has lines like "I've been working on a cocktail called grounds for divorce" and "every Monday is for drinking to the seldom seen kid". It's quite a fantastic, Bukowski-esque tale of a self-destructive spiral. And the music on it is way cool. It's the one with the weird, bass-heavy instrumental passages that, though seemingly mismatched to the quieter sung passages, somehow works perfectly. And Joe, the Beyonce is good. Most of the reviews I've read over here have put it squarely in the B-B+ range. Don't know if it's going to be a stone classic, but Jesus, it sounds great. One thing I like about it is that she, great singer that she is, has tamed the melisma a bit. Much more straightforward singing and it suits her really well. | ||

M-People were a pretty good pop group for a year. Then became so insipid It's like they weren't there at all. But oh they were, in every shopping centre, lift & bar in the land. Now Elbow are a different propostion. I listened to their Asleep In The Back LP & Noisebox EP. It's much more minimal than the new one without the big chorus/crescenditude/armsaloftatfestival s vibe that goes with a number 1 hit album. They're basically Doves with a hoarse voice which is no mean feat. | ||
| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 1286 Registered: 09-2006 |
Sounds encouraging, ETM (the Beyonce, I mean). I shall have to look into that. I believe you mentioned a lack of female heavy-duty-music-fans at one point recently, ETM...one of them was the one that sent me the Elbow comp (and I was able to return the favor with a Go-Bees one) : http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fus eaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=449822 8 She's far from the only one I've found around those parts, but definitely the most interesting, and a good friend. I tell ya, if I didn't live about as far away from her in the continental US as it's possible to get I'd be attempting some serious courting... | ||
| Ewan Talisker McEwan Member Username: Ewan_mcewan Post Number: 525 Registered: 02-2008 |
Well sir, Beyonce has gotten all conceptual on our arses. It's split into two halves, on two different discs, which is a little tiresome - I'm sure the music could fit on one disc. And, of the two, I like the one that's more old school soul, more ballad-y, cuz it gives her a chance to really sing. The other disc is more up to the minute, club bangers with some cutting edge, techno-y sounds. I tell ya, there's some Nine Inch Nails-y backing tracks, mixed with a little 808 State. And, a lot of them seem to have that great Missy Elliott song as a template, though I can't think of the name of it. "Get Ur Freak On"? I see what you mean about yer friend, AB. Perhaps you should move there. Just think, you could go to the Burt Reynolds dinner theater any time you wanted! I don't really know enough about the Doves to get the comparison. (Are they safe to like? Cool or uncool?) Aren't the Doves kind of full of chiming guitars, anthemic choruses? Based on this one, excellent album I've heard by Elbow, I'd more label them (if I had to) as an artier Blue Nile, but with balls! | ||
| Jerry Clark Member Username: Jerry Post Number: 882 Registered: 08-2004 |
Err not sure if Doves are cool or not, that's indefinable. Definiteley more jangly than Elbow. Also chorus-y, stroppy, brooding & Northern like the Elbow fellas of late. Hooded raincoats all round, like vintage Bunnymen. | ||
| Allen Belz Member Username: Abpositive Post Number: 1287 Registered: 09-2006 |
Probably "Get Ur Freak On," or maybe "Work It"..."Put my thing down, flip it and reverse it." Something I'd be honored to witness... Never thought about the Burt Reynolds factor there, ETM...that's a clincher if ever there was one. Sarah Vaughn - 20 Greatest Performances Great voice, but man, does she know it. And she can't seem to do much else but show off. | ||

I got the 2nd Elbow album after all the advertising when it came out and it's vaguely pleasant but quite forgettable. I dipped my toe in and I got very wet! Doves WERE a different beast. First album is sonically very dense and very good. Stuff happening all over the place. 2nd album should have been huge everywhere. Slightly more direct but emotionally propelling. 3rd album was their "Motown" album given the preponderance for the backbeat!....and quite disappointing really. New album must be out soon. Hopefully they're back on the drugs so it's a bit more interesting!!! | ||

i knew a few blokes like you at the time, which meant i listened to the record and enjoyed it a lot. they were really great live....especially when they pulled out some sub sub tracks. i think spending so many years getting hammered in indie clubs sort of soiled the likes of pounding and catch the sun for me. i picked up the beautiful waste comp last night, which made walking into work this morning a rather glorious experience. i also thought it time i gave third a rest before i tear open a vein or something, so i bought the first two big star records. | ||

Yes, Andreas, the June Brides set is a revelation. But I have a question: did they mix up the titles for "This Town" and "Josef's Gone?" The lyrics to what the CD calls "Josef's Gone" MUST be to "This Town." Where's Spence when we need him? Augie March--Watch Me Disappear. All of their records were sleepers for me so it's no surprise that nothing is really grabbing me on the first two listens except for "Dogsday" and "The Devil in Me." The kickoff song seems a perverse choice--a definite effort not to have "The Hit" start things off like on the last album. | ||

Don't know if its a listening or viewing thread, but I'm addicted to the blackcabsessions website. http://www.blackcabsessions.com/ It takes your less than run of the mill bands, sits them in a London black cab, drives them around while they play a song or two. Okkervil River, Brian Wilson, Jens Lekman, Noah & The Whale, Lambchop and Badly Drawn Boy have features (along with another 60 or so). Who comes up with these ideas - nutters, and the world's a better place for them. Cheers Jon | ||

| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1847 Registered: 03-2005 |
Third listen, and probably the first proper one, of "Watch Me Disappear." I have such a high opinion of the first three albums that it's honestly nervous-making to open a new album. This is also my first new Augie March album following my conversion. My big fear is that the major label pressures will push them to go more radio-friendly and less distinctively Augie March. But there are other dangers too: that they'll have run out of ideas or that instead of becoming less distinctively Augie March they become a parody of Augie March. It's much more restful discovering "new" old records with no preconceptions than listening to actual new ones by valued artists with all the baggage of anticipation. Except for "Just Passing Through" I'm not generally a big fan of their noisy numbers and the opener is half-way a noisy number. It doesn't seem to have much to grab onto in terms of musical memorability but we'll see how it wears later on. Right now it seems like an anti-opener. "Pennywhistle" sounds too much like a Springsteen number. So other folks will like it. Maybe it will be "the hit." "Becoming Bryn:" ah, the first Augie March song! Lovely. "City of Rescue:" they like to do circus tent numbers like this. They're never among my favorites but, again, it sounds like proper Augie March. "Farmer's Son." More proper Augie March. What works for me with Glenn Richards' work is that he's basically a folkie with an inimitable wide-open-spaces Aussie spirituality. Songs like this and "Becoming Bryn" follow in that tradition. "Mugged by the Mob." Big Augie March, where the budget from the major label comes in handy. "The Slant" is very stark and simple, virtually a Glenn Richards solo folk singer tune. Think of "Bottle Baby" although it's probably not that great a tune. But it's a nice pressure relief valve from the gigantism of "Mugged." It will probably be mostly about the lyrics. "The Glenorchy Bunyip." Ah, excellent Augie March noisy music. Again, a bit of that circus tent hawker to Glenn's delivery with a suitable backing. "Dogsday" was the first song that grabbed me on the first listen. It's one of Glenn's lovely ballads with its subtly meandering quality. It's actually a pretty traditional ballad that could be covered by somebody horrible except for the lyrics which said horrible hypothetical singer could not credibly mouth. "Lupus" is a nice solid Augie March mid-tempo number. It serves its purpose of keeping the album going to bringing the listener from "Dogsday" to "The Devil in Me" which is the other song that got my attention on the first listen. Yes, this is another ballad with a lovely slowly unwinding verse and particularly gorgeous organ and strings. There's even a heavenly choir! I promise you, this is much better than it might be sounding to you as I describe it. There's a perfectly modulated restraint to the whole thing. A fine closer. So, on third listen and the first one without distractions and interruptions, it sounds like two ho-hum songs to start and then a proper Augie March album for the following nine. There aren't actually any real "This Train Will Be Taking No Passengers" noisy type numbers and perhaps there should have been. They serve a purpose. At this early stage it seems that most of the arrangements are simpler than they've been doing recently. This might turn out to be one of the less strong Augie March albums but even so it is very pleasing. We'll see how it wears. The music nearly always comes first with me and as of now I haven't really heard the lyrics to these songs. Glenn's elocution doesn't make them easy for this cloth-eared Yank listener to get and I refuse to read the printed lyrics until I've more or less got them through hearing. They're kind of "disappearing" off the right edge of the printed lines anyway. So this is a report on the music only. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 1848 Registered: 03-2005 |
I had a spastic attack and hit the "post message" button by accident. But the post was getting too long anyway. I just have a couple of final summary comments. I view Augie March as the spiritual heirs of the Triffids, much more so than, say, Perth's own Panics. It would be a true shock if Glenn Richards is not intimately familiar with virtually everything David McComb did. But there's no slavish emulation; just inspiration. (And perhaps even a determination to avoid some of the Triffids' pitfalls; Augie March haven't set themselves up outside of Oz). The carnival-comes-to-town feel of many of Augie March's more up-tempo numbers can be compared to Arcade Fire's music but where Arcade Fire just keeps banging on that same effect, Augie March rolls it out in measured doses for program variety. And Augie March's lyrics are on a completely different plane. This is a fine band and "Watch Me Disappear" has done nothing to dim that evaluation even if it also does not offer an obvious new high water mark. | ||

Randy, nice review of Augie March. We differ in that I do really like the opening two tracks (never considered the Bruce connection before though) and then think it slips slightly with the next two! Dogsday and Lupus are both classics in the making. I love The Glenorchy Bunyip too. I can see the Triffids influence, as with The Go-Betweens influence. What I think Augie March really need is their version of the 1978-90 comp. | ||

Padraig is that the one with the sample from How Soon Is Now? If so I remeember I didn't like it at the time, doubt I would now either. Galaxie 500 - Uncollected Galaxie 500 Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs.

That's the one! At the time I was not a Smiths lover and used to bate Smiths fans with it! Now I am a Smiths lover but still love this song. I bought the Soho album on cassette for about two quid at some point, but I downloaded that one great track from iTunes today after being reminded of it while reading an article on Adam & The Ants (one of the Ants produced Soho). 69 Love Songs would fit on 4 records. A lot of the songs are very short. Each of the three discs on the original release is less than an hour long. | ||

Randy, I was on MySpace checking out The Bats a few days ago when I saw the band Ladybird, who I knew nothing about, mentioned as one of their 'friends.' I checked them out and learned that they are led by Victor Crespi who I believe is French. They are a bit like Ashtray Boy in that the band consists of different members depending on where they are at the time ( Chile; France; New Zealand; U.K. ) They in turn led me to Uncle Jelly Fish. I enjoyed the song samples and ordered the albums ( from the bands which I think may be the only way to source them.) The Uncle Jelly Fish album arrived yesterday and if pushed for a music genre I would go with folk/rock. The band name/album title/track listing are in English on the cd and I believe the majority ( if not all ) of the songs are sung in English. Their MySpace page is almost entirely in French. I know you sometime have problems with certain vocals/vocalists. The lead vocalist has quite a distinctive style so I am not sure what you will make of them. I am listening to a lot of folk music at the moment and I have to say I like the album a lot. Weird and wonderful. Currently listening to There Were Wolves by The Accidental and The Memory Band by The Memory Band which some people have labelled as folktronica. | ||
