    'got around to listening to the P1ssed Jeans album..

    i dig it.... enjoying the "stretched out" tracks more.

    The guitar on "you're different (in person)" is one of my favorite 2013 musical things...

    Jesus Lizard, Cows... Harvey Milk fans will probably enjoy it.

    Kveikur was their 2013 release though. Valtari was 2012. Beautiful record though - for me much stronger than Kveikur.

    2013 has been a great year for music across many genres. One that has stuck out for me over the last few weeks and has had a huge amount of play around the house is 'Until In Excess, Imperceptible UFO' by The Besnard Lakes.

    Listening to Burial - Rival Dealer based on Gonzovisions post above.
    Have to say that i agree totally. Starting to listen to his previous work. Top drawer stuff and I see today that Pitchfork has Rival Dealer EP listed as 9/10.
