New Music
So I've been busy on the CD front in the last...oooh....year or so, but a roundup of the hits of the recent times.
Guillemots - Red
Blimey that was a good song. And Clarion's not bad. Vicky might have a point that they're sometimes a bit self-consciously 'clever' and verge on novelty, but that's just part of trying to do new stuff to me. I'll take the rough with the smooth. I think the first album may be slightly better - there's a great Billy Joel 'homage' on it. Have a listen.
Captain
Oh good golly these guys are good. I spent ages chasing after the album this is on, only to find out it's not out yet. Their first, Trevor Horn-produced, album "Welcome to Hazelville" is a blinder, and this is looking better.
Pendulum
Pendulum were a real shock to me. Their myspace stuff is just great - I'm so glad that drum'n'bass didn't just die out. (although I think the video's a little suspect)
And then, of course, there's Frost*...
