It's a grand and outlandish effort (in this day and age when not many double albums get a release).

Doesn't quite hit the haughty heights of 'Saturdays = Youth' but gets close on but a few tracks only.

6/10

^This.

A decent E.P. hidden in a double album.

The new Ryan Adams. A bit of a return to form really. To retain any semblance of cool I have the Wild Flag record on order.

The Horrible Crowes - Elsie

Pretty good, sounds like the mellower Gaslight Songs

charlie angel · 19-10-2011, 08:07

In light of recent events I dug out The Stone Roses - haven't listened to it in ages; holds up really quite well doesn't it. Favourite bit is still the outro to Resurrection

Don't know why they passed my by for so long (they've been mentioned often enough on here and on other music pages that I read regularly), but last week I bought Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and I'm loving it. Also watched the "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" documentary on DVD, which I really enjoyed.

Much Wilco back catalogue mining beckons!

They've got a new album out that's very very fine too.

Wild Flag. Gerat stuff!

SIMON ADEBISI · 19-10-2011, 13:47

At this very moment im listening to Regulate by Warren G & Nate Dogg

Still a great tune.

Yes, it's on my list. "Being There" next, followed by "The Whole Love" then "Summerteeth" and I'll see where that takes me.

I'd leave the first two albums till last the band didn't really get beyond the alt country ghetto untill summer teeth. (And Sky blue sky till a sunny day.)

Have you heard about this frog? It's a very tiny frog..

Without a doubt one of the best albums of the year; true there's a few tracks which detone from the more psychadelic tracks, but oddly enough they seem like a calming journey before the storm (or whatever pretentious phrasing one can put together) - I do need to listen to it properly though (and not when spending 90 minutes on the same spreadsheet going, hmm why doesn't this number add up, omg sax solo)

rekoj87 · 20-10-2011, 07:48

Actually right now I’m listing to Menyo - follow your heart song.

SimonI · 20-10-2011, 07:56

Right now I'm looking for some servers

PS:

King Crimson - Beat - Still sounds as fresh today as it did thirty years ago.
Nirvana - Nevermind - Still making my mind up about this. I often have trouble getting into albums that I didn't hear when they were new... but its early days yet

To these old ears that bit just sounded like a poor Orb/Lemon Jelly rip off.

Any how if you like M83 check out Neon Indian. Much the same but with less Sax.

Mr Majestik · 20-10-2011, 14:39

Janes Addiction - The Great Escape - Lots of big riffs but lacking the funk and the weirdness of the early stuff.

Justice - Audio, Video, Disco. What's with every other new record sounding like a long lost Miami Vice soundtrack? This one soundtracks the boat chases. (M83/Neon Indian can do the luurrrvvee scenes.)

gjkendall · 21-10-2011, 06:43

^^^^Is the Justice album any good...I am eager to hear it, but the Post Office seem to be taking an age to deliver it!
