China Crisis - Working With Fire & Steel , Flaunt The Imperfection , Warped By Success & Disc 2 Of The Collection.


Going to see them on Thursday so they'll be on most of this week. Will probably listen to there other albums tomorrow. The last time they were due to play Glasgow they canceled but hopefully it'll go ok this time. Haven't seen them for a number of years so really looking forward to it.

Yazoo - Upstairs at Erics

After a tip off from a recent JF Interview Lonelady:-

checking her page out myself right now , It's always interesting to hear what John and Benge have been listening to in the course of making their music.

Last nights bedtime listening was Yes: Relayer, unexpectedly this teenage blast from the past got a look in after all those decades, and I blame the power of the media and the hard to resist influence of the BBC Prog Britannia programme, (which I'd recorded from last week)

This morning for me its been Fight Bite: Emerald Eyes.

Came across this Texas duo's '08 debut album via an itunes link, and just had to get it. With beautiful songs like Swissex Lover, Strings, and Spring Rain, it's a melancholy landscape of girly singing set against low-fi synth dreampop, and I'm not ashamed to say I like it...

Going to treat myself to the new Arcade Fire album, after this I'm not buying any more albums until John Foxx and The Prodigy release their respective live CD/DVDs from The Roundhouse and Milton Keynes.

Charlotte Gainsbourg's excellent new album, "IRM"

Mesh - We Collide
Mesh - Who Watches Over Me?

I got Mesh's most recent album A Perfect Solution a few months ago and connected with it straight away. Suitably impressed, I have now splashed out on their back catalogue. They do have a really distinct sound, and We Collide is a perfect pre-cursor to A Perfect Solution.

I had a few difficulties getting a copy of Who Watches Over Me? (as mentioned in a seperate topic), but it has been well worth the wait - a stunningly good album.

I've also found good value copies of their earlier albums on Grooves Inc (http://www.grooves-inc.co.uk/), so I've got three more albums on the way
