Muse Sick
Just played last gig with current band and it was a blast so to celebrate here's some soundings.
i) Shipping News
Don't watch the film it was self-important rubbish that a good cast couldn't steer away from the rocks. The band have delivered a treat, melodic guitar, precision rhythm and beautiful undulating vocals combined with production that fills your earholes to the brim with majesty and grace. Buy!
ii) Clouddead
Rediscovered after it initally came out on cd 5 years ago; it's album to fall in love with and then fall asleep to, as it serenades you with its gentles drones and intelligent raps. Dose One delivers dextrous stream of thought while the musos produce dreamscapes that coo like a post-coital pigeon. Check!
iii) Black Dog
Great old school ambient techno that isn't minimal to the point of catatonia. It remains interesting plus seems to be totally influenced by legendary German electronica pioneers Tangerine Dream. Dig!
