Tom vek - the return!

If you dont know, you should check his stuff out. Probably one of the greatest albums I will ever own (We have sound). His last album was released in 2006 and took some 5/6 years to make. He doesnt seem to bow to pressure to follow up with a second as its coming at the end of the summer/year... Yet another 6 years later!

A couple of random tracks from the man himself. All of them are fking amazing.

It’s been a while Tom!! Agreed "We Have Sound" is a killer album. I must have seen him live around 4 times and he always puts on a brilliant show. Can’t wait to hear the new tunes.

So did anybody listen to the new album? Just got it today and i'm very much impressed. Leisure Seizure is amazing I think, I especially like Seizemic, beutiful song.
