updates for all on a cold and dark night

hell.o.

today was the first day i had to put to put the heating on. great.

anyway, here are some new bits-n-bobs to warm the cockles of your heart.

first and foremost, new friends of james blunt, and soon hopefully the rest of the world, ;the boy least likely to' reissue their debut album to coincide with their tour with the blunt bloke. so, i tracked them down for a few quick easy q's. lucky us.

then in the reviews, its obvious that the students are back in the shops, as record labels are throwing out a lot of distractions.

so to start the ball rolling we have :

+ the amorphous androgynous - alice in ultraland. the return of the epic ambient noise sculptors, future sound of london.

+ t.raumschmiere - blitzgrieg pop, aka extreme pop

+ stevelawler - lights out 3. dance music for the darker sides of life.

+ marconi union - distance. more deep post rock styled ambience from the lovely all saints label.

+ institute - distort yourself. oh joy of joys. grunge is back, thus the return of gavin rossdale should be a warning to us all.

+ skalpel - konfusion. more jazz styled beats from this polish duo.

+ the beta band - music (aka te best of). hold back the tears, the end has been and gone, but recall those glorious times.

+ vacabou - trip hop on the ambient all saint label? oh yes. is it good ? oh yes.

+ the black velvets - hairy old rock and roll. get on down.

 

sod it. that's enough surely.

message ends.
