    Its a good album, but i found myself getting bored with it quite quickly. Have no inkling to listen to it now.

    Yeah, the album is really nice. Very cool 60s pop sound (I think it's all the reverb). Sorry I missed them when they played here (I think twice within a few months).

    Brilliant band. Sorry to have missed them also. They are supposed to be amazing live. I love the Sun Giant e.p also. One of my favorite band of the last year or so.

    I haven't gotten the EP yet. Worth getting so?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzovision


    Ye definitely. Mykonos is their best song in my opinion.

    They keep on being namedropped with Bon Iver, and since i love his labum, figured i would check them out. They are good, but there is no sticking in any of the songs. Its like i listen... ya that was pretty good, and then immediately forget about it.

    Love the album, the harmonies are amazing.
    Reminds me of driving about big bear lake in california anytime i hear it.

    Glorious stuff.

    These two do a great cover of Tiger Mountain Peasant Song.

    They are called The First Aid Kit.

    My mates had themplaying last night in the house, definitely a 60's esque sound from them. I found them good to listen to.

    Seen them on Friday night and besides Vicar street been packed it was one hell of a gig!! The harmonia's they do are breathe taking!! Mykonos had to be the pick for me :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 83 ✭✭Musoabuso


    twas a good gig alright, they were just wandering around before the gig, dont think many people bothered them as they didn't know what they looked like...The song he played on his own with out the mic was amazing...

    ! Mykonos had to be the pick for me :)

    I haven't been to blown away by them, I think alot of their songs are nice and good but without a punch. Mykonos is the exception, amazing
