Hamilton Saint Posted 24 September, 2014 Posted 24 September, 2014 One of the great rock 'n' roll performances on live TV. PLAY LOUD!
The Cat Posted 24 September, 2014 Posted 24 September, 2014 Missed it when first released... Burial - Street Halo Almost too awesome for words. Also on the same label: Jessy Lanza - Pull My Hair Back Both are amazing. Hyperdub put out some real good releases. Burial is always my go to artist when travelling on trains out of the city late at night. Just fits that time and place so perfectly. If you like that sort of thing and haven't heard Actress then get on it. He's done some quality stuff.

I haven't lived in London for a good few years now but Burial almost makes me feel nostalgic for nightbuses. Off to see Caribou supported by Jessy Lanza next month - should be a belter.
The Cat Posted 25 September, 2014 Posted 25 September, 2014 Off to see Caribou supported by Jessy Lanza next month - should be a belter. That will be one hell of a gig. I'd love to pull Jessy Lanza's hair back.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 25 September, 2014 Posted 25 September, 2014 So, heard this on 6music and thought it was rather nice. Was taking a break at work and decided to look her up a bit, turns out she's 15, and still at school. Which is thoroughly depressing. Talented young lady.
SuperMikey Posted 25 September, 2014 Posted 25 September, 2014 Getting a massive Laura Marling vibe off that KRG, nice tune though. Very talented for a 15 year old!
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 6 October, 2014 Posted 6 October, 2014 Loving the eponymous Eagulls album at the minute. This opening track really grips you in:
The Cat Posted 7 October, 2014 Posted 7 October, 2014 I'm very much enjoying a bit of Lydia Ainsworth at the moment. Debut album out soon. [video=youtube;AgAWdI-l25Q]
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 8 October, 2014 Posted 8 October, 2014 RIP Crystal Castles Just to clarify; they have split up, not died
sadoldgit Posted 13 October, 2014 Posted 13 October, 2014 Loving the new alt-J CD. If you like your indie music left field and quirky, check it out.
Hamilton Saint Posted 14 October, 2014 Posted 14 October, 2014 (edited) The superb alt-country rocker Lucinda Williams has just released a double-CD album called Down Where the Spirit Meets the Bone. Here's a taste of what's on offer. "West Memphis" Edited 14 October, 2014 by Hamilton Saint
Hamilton Saint Posted 14 October, 2014 Posted 14 October, 2014 (edited) And this one, "Foolishness", is even better! Edited 14 October, 2014 by Hamilton Saint

Here's a taste of what's on offer. Loving it at the moment...along with the new "My Brightest Diamond" album...another amazing woman's voice in quite a different way from Lucinda's.

Always been one of them I've heard of, but never heard much of. Enjoyed this though, so cheers.

miserableoldgit Posted 18 October, 2014 Posted 18 October, 2014 Also really like the new Jackson Browne album "Standing in the Breach". Looking forward to seeing him at RAH next month. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
miserableoldgit Posted 18 October, 2014 Posted 18 October, 2014 .....and two albums connected to the anniversary of WWI. "Centenary", a collaboration between Show of Hands, Imelda Staunton and Jim Carter, with poetry and music and "In Flanders Field" by Coope, Boyes and Simpson , a superb double CD of songs connected with and about WWI.

Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk I've been listening to this one all week, too. I particularly love the final track. Simple but beautiful. I'm not so keen on his overtly political songs. He can tend to get a bit preachy ("Which Side", for example).
miserableoldgit Posted 18 October, 2014 Posted 18 October, 2014 Yes tend to agree about the preachy stuff but overall I have always loved the man's music....Late For the Sky being my favourite record of all time. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Yes, it's a great album. Of the more recent ones, I think the best is "I'm Alive", which features the gorgeous "Sky Blue and Black". The album deals with the fallout from his divorce from Daryl Hannah. Should add that I saw Jackson Browne first at The Riverboat Coffeehouse in Toronto in about 1972-73. David Lindley (great in his own right!) was accompanying on second guitar, mandolin and fiddle. Edited 18 October, 2014 by Hamilton Saint
miserableoldgit Posted 19 October, 2014 Posted 19 October, 2014 Saw JB with David Lindley a couple of years ago. Love his fiddle work on "For a Dancer", my favourite JB song, and "Before the Deluge".Also agree with what you say about "I'm Alive". Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
The Cat Posted 19 October, 2014 Posted 19 October, 2014 From what will be the hip hop album of the year. Run The Jewels ft Zack De La Rocha
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 19 October, 2014 Posted 19 October, 2014 From what will be the hip hop album of the year. Run The Jewels ft Zack De La Rocha Ha, a mate sent me this earlier today. I only dabble with Hip-Hop, but I really like this. I feel you and I should have a pint and talk about music sometime. We don't agree on it all, but hey, that's what makes it fun.

Keep an eye out for a gig we'd both like, I'm always happy to travel up to London for them.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 19 October, 2014 Posted 19 October, 2014 Nice one. I'd be up for that. Keep an eye out for a gig we'd both like, I'm always happy to travel up to London for them. Was worried for a bit that'd seem creepy. Thanks for not taking it that way.
The Cat Posted 20 October, 2014 Posted 20 October, 2014 Was worried for a bit that'd seem creepy. Thanks for not taking it that way. Well it was, but I'm always on the lookout for new victims and no one reads this thread.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 20 October, 2014 Posted 20 October, 2014 Well it was, but I'm always on the lookout for new victims and no one reads this thread. Mace, I have MACE!!! Anyway, one for Pap. 'New' Sleater-Kinney: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjlY81YRRqY
Jonnyboy Posted 20 October, 2014 Posted 20 October, 2014 This thread has taken a creepy twist. Don't think I'll be coming on here anymore.

TheCholulaKid Posted 21 October, 2014 Posted 21 October, 2014 Had to ditch seeing Caribou and Jessy Lanza (sob!) this Friday but am off to see Hookworms on Saturday instead. Silver linings etc. Listening to Traams for the first time (supporting Hookworms) - who are alright, I reckon.

Silver linings etc. Listening to Traams for the first time (supporting Hookworms) - who are alright, I reckon. Gutted for you about the Caribou/Jessy Lanza gig. Hookworms are great - I have the new album on pre-order. Tempted by the new Sleater Kinney record too but I've spent far too much on vinyl recently. http://slyvinyl.com/indierock/sleater-kinney-cities-love-limited-deluxe-white-lps-bonus-white-12
TheCholulaKid Posted 22 October, 2014 Posted 22 October, 2014 Yeah - Pearl Mystic has been on repeat for a while now. Especially Away/Towards - can't wait to see that live.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 22 October, 2014 Posted 22 October, 2014 Big fan of Hookworms, particularly MJ - who is earning a reputation for calling out a lot of sexism in the Music Industry. I saw his other band, Menace Beach, support Cloud Nothings earlier this year. I really enjoyed them. Worth a listen.
fish fingers Posted 25 October, 2014 Posted 25 October, 2014 This week i've mostly been listening to the new offerings from Jamie T and SBTRKT Jamie T is a weird one, not as in your face as the first two albums but a grower. Will last the pace SBTRKT - taking a bit of time to get in to. Good though.
TheCholulaKid Posted 26 October, 2014 Posted 26 October, 2014 Had to ditch seeing Caribou and Jessy Lanza (sob!) this Friday but am off to see Hookworms on Saturday instead. They were loud. Seriously loud. And awesome.
The Cat Posted 26 October, 2014 Posted 26 October, 2014 These Aphex Twin/Taylor Swift mashups are nuts http://www.stereogum.com/1714198/david-rees-aphex-swift-is-the-best-aphex-twintaylor-swift-mashup-album-of-the-year-so-far/mp3s/
SuperMikey Posted 26 October, 2014 Posted 26 October, 2014 Had the new Twilight Sad album on today. I think they're one of those bands that takes a while to grow into their sound, and although their earlier albums were great this one is on a whole new level. Might well be my favourite album of the year!
pap Posted 31 October, 2014 Posted 31 October, 2014 Got my Sleater Kinney ticket. I'm very excited about it - will be seeing them in Manchester instead of London. They've been on the car stereo quite a bit recently. I've also started listening to established "car movie" songs when driving about. This sends ms pap f**king mad "Convoy" also does her head in
The Cat Posted 31 October, 2014 Posted 31 October, 2014 The debut album by Lola Colt hs had a lot of play in our house the last few days

Might well be my favourite album of the year! Given this a few listens now. Really like it. Still think there is room for it to really grow on me though. Wouldn't mind getting out to see them play this.
