Been listening to
The Contino Sessions - Death In Vegas,
More Songs About Buildings and Food - Talking Heads,
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Twin Cinema - New Pornographers

Bren_M.Records · 15-12-2007 2:02am

Check these guys out: www.myspace.com/twinkranes
They have a track called "Plateau" that is in my humble opinion one of the best Irish tracks in years.

Hybrasil were playing in London last year and these guys were on the bill, they were really tight and their sound was punchy as feck.
Best unsigned bands Iv seen: www.myspace.com/attackswitchattack
If you dont think "Mathematics" is cool as **** I'll eat me hat!

I still can't figure out which version I like better

Crumble Froo · 11-01-2008 11:24pm

listening to puggy at the mo... saw them supporting one of my fave bands recently, bought the cd on the way out, but have only just started listening to the cd. i like it. got some good lyrics, a bouncy, upbeat sound, and good for singalongs (once i figure out the words), which is important to me, as an often drunk music fan

you know who · 12-01-2008 7:22pm

howcome the national dont get as much exposure as they should? hadnt heard of them till a week ago, now i cant turn them off..

Yeah, great band. They've a solid enough following in Ireland though, sold out the ******* pretty quickly last year. Really well received gig too, got to carry a ridiculously drunk Matt Berninger around the pit during the encore

As for the exposure thing, well you could say that about countless bands - just need to look in the right places, I guess.

Xavi6 · 13-01-2008 2:50am

Just got The Enemy's album. It's bloody good.

beans · 13-01-2008 3:01am

Rolly polly,
Topsy turvy,
Hang upside down,
Fall to the GROUND

I'm rocking Mr Bungle, and I've found that album to be wonderful 12 years after I first enjoyed it... man that makes me feel old

No-one is listening
Yet ears. Are. Ringing.
... In the morninig I will see
What you were trying to say to me
As I respond into the sink
but I can't ... hear myself think
