Me likee JD McPherson tooā¦Thanks Lou 
Hey KRG whereās the Sufjan gig reviewā¦an epiphany or just a good gig?
Ah yeah, I never quite got round to that. Basically 'slowlane tāwas fecking immense. Intense, emotionally charged, but wonderful. Even for a Sufjan newb like myself, it was thoroughly enjoyable. Our group was torn on him, he didnāt say a word for the first 30/45 mins then started talking quite a bit about some abstract stuff. I quite enjoyed it, the others could do without it. Thereās such a diverse mix of obvious influences, nods and references going on from Buckley to Floyd, yet itās a really unique sound all on itās own. Blue Bucket of Gold was my favourite, truly stunning. Hope thatās better dude 
This is also getting a good airing on 6music at the moment, which Iām enjoying a lot.

LOL! I have been trying to work out what it reminds me of and I have just realised itās an old Lilac Time album. Well worth a listen for anyone who thinks Stephen Tun-Tin Duffy is just about āKiss Meā and writing hits for Robbie Williams:
Thanks for the review KRGā¦like I said before I hesitate to recommend Sufjan because itās often a āwhatās all the fuss aboutā¦I donāt get itā reaction as with some of your group.
BTW I gave you an āUp Voteāā¦but Iāve also given everyone else an āUp Voteā in this thread so everyone, please reciprocate.

Sorry, I may have worded that poorly. Everyone really enjoyed the gig, they just wernt too sure on him when he started talking between the songs.
Like me, most of us had only heard a little bit of him previously. But had heard enough positive to go, and it also coincided with the Vivid festival in Sydney and was at the Opera House - all that seemed reason enough to check it out

Just managed to get tickets for them at Koko tomorrow. (y)
No way!! Iām tempted, might need to rejig something. I work opposite - quick beer beforehand?
If you are quick in finding out, I might be able to get a +1. Save you buying a ticket. Let me know.
Fixed! Let me know about the +1. If not, Iāll buy ticket asap. Thanks KRG, would never have spotted that gig!
+1 sorted.

Mostly the new Rolo Tomassi album.
Shoegaze-y, post rocky-y, mathcore brilliance. Some of the most beautiful, haunting, ethereal (and then BOOM , downright crushing) music Iāve ever heard. This trackās a particular highlight:

MUSE - Drones. Great album, but saw them live again on Saturday and they never fail to blow me away!
Not usually a huge fan of Foals, but this track is pretty darn decent.
