    New one from Ellie. Not as immediate as Starry Eyed but a good follow up nonetheless. Quite a good comeback for the women recently and Kate Nash had a decent enough set on Jools on Friday. Not sure if she was miming on guitar though on one of the tracks.

    Nneka: Heartbeat:

    Came across this artist from the Skins website earlier in the year, album is fairly decent but this song is quality imo

    You me at Six: Liquid Confidence:

    Came across them on the BBC Radio One weekend playlist...still not sure whether I like their album or not but this song is decent:

    I've recently discovered this band, Switchfoot, from youtubing.
    and now I'm constantly listening to their songs. This song is nice, it's called
    'Enough to let me go'.

    can't stand her. it's pop and bad pop at best. Give me Nash or Gaga ahead of her any day of the week!

    In The Aeroplane Over The Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel

    I'm guessing a lot of you will have heard this before as it's from the late 90s but the song, album and band are all new to me. I first heard this song about 6 months ago and didn't think much of it, but recently heard it again and it's just amazing imo. The more I listen to it the more I love it, and the rest of the album also - it's rapidly becoming one of my favourite albums of all time.

    Bone Dance to start with.

    Just started listening to Mumblin' Deaf Ro recently and I'm particularly taken with this song.

    "Lonely as a lighthouse on a choppy northern coast..."

    Touch of Jeff Lewis and a bit of 30's old-timey guitar in there. Oddlly listenable, glad i stuck with it to the end.

    I guess a load of you will know this one. I'm a MBV fan, for sure, but I'm one of those only-has-Loveless fans. Heard this one for the first time Yesterday, awesome :cool:

    actually saw them live. Think it was the SFX. Without question the loudest gig ever

    I caught them at Electric Picnic 2008. We only got a fifteen minute version of the 'holocaust'... :p Indeed a very loud show. Loved it :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,082 ✭✭✭✭Spiritoftheseventies


    Think this is Ash's latest and quite good. Not sure if agree with this whole single a month a lark but McLoone reckons the album sounds good. The piano bits on this interesting as it doesnt follow a natural note progression from what i can make of track. But as said like this one

    I'm heading to Pukkelpop in August and was just having a listen to some bands I've never heard of before.

    Came across this band.



    Amazing. I think they're from Northern Ireland so fair play to them for managing to get on to a big European festival.

    Yup. They're from the North. Good band, getting a lot of positive press over the past few months.

    I was at that! It was around 92 or 93.

    Can't say it was a great gig to be honest - it was mostly just indecipherable noise - but it was loud as hell. I remember looking around and seeing Dave Fanning standing at the back of the SFX with earplugs in!

    He had more sense than you then! most MBV gigs are better wtith earplugs apparently. You get to physically feel the music due to the loudness, and the earplugs make the indecipherable noise pleasant. This is not from personal experience but a good friend of mines loves them and swears by this method.

    You would have thought they would have supplied the earplugs then for us lowly fans. Typical DJs getting preferential treatment :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    You've got to wear earplugs at a My Bloody Valentine gig. Otherwise you can't make out what they're playing.

    I've seen people at MBV gigs telling their friends they don't need them and by the end they've got their hands over their ears.

    Earplugs = essential.

    He's a Swedish singer/songwriter and his new album 'The Wild Hunt' came out two weeks ago. It's very very good.

    The song in the video is the title track.

    Pretty solid album alright... My buddy has been raving about him for months.... This was the first song of his I heard, still my favourite.



    Saw him in Whelan's last year - he's great - and far from tall actually! Playing Whelan's again in June.

    This is my fave song of his from his debut album Shallow Graves

    Think Richard Hawley is the better solo artist between the two pulp members. Wouldnt be mad on that song tbh.
