Birchville Cat Motel - "Gunpowder Temple Of Heaven"
Epic and amazing. This might just be my favorite album/track of the year so far.
I haven't heard this one yet! Kinda went of Kneale recently year cos of his absurd output; he started to become consistently solid but rarely amazing. Will investigate this one.Quoting Derek (view post)
Have you heard Beautiful Speck Triumph? His masterpiece.
(not listening to anything now, forgot to bring my iPod to uni today)
This is the first I've heard from him, but I'm planning on hearing more soon. I'll pick up Beautiful Speck Triumph post haste. Gunpowder is just a single 40-minute track, but its worth the bit of patience it requires. It helps that I heard it while half-conscious, baking in the early afternoon sun, so I'll have to see how it holds up in a more ordinary setting.Quoting Boner M (view post)

Nadja - "Incubation/Metamorphosis"
As a full length, I think Touched works better in moments of tranquility than with any activity. "Stay Demons" is a fandamntastic song, but the rest of this album isn't quite clicking yet. I think I prefer the last Jesu album to this one, though I need to research Nadja's catalogue more, especially given their excess in albums...
The Boat People - 9
The Power of the Dog - 7.5

Yeah, the video is hilarious. Zooropa is a criminally underrated album.Quoting Rowland (view post)
