Lucy Rose

Okay..you want some new music? Well this is very.... 'me'.

 Perhaps it might be 'you'?

I saw Lucy Rose at this year's Green Man with my brother-in-law. (too much detail? did you need to know it was with my brother-in-law?).

I was impressed. I was also pretty knackered.

This week i followed up on the impressive first impression and got hold of her new cd, out this week in all good record stores (i think Play.com have signed copies, which i've only just found out).

I'm trying to define why i like it. it....just feels....honest? Does that make sense? Have a listen to one of the tracks. 

[next time i will try some music out of my comfort zone, i promise. anyone got any suggestions? norweigan dub grindcore?]

Blogging things i don't own.... "blog rape"? "brape?"

The big man lent me a piece of music dvd 'rules' greatness the other day. A live DVD by the elvish noodlers Sigur Ros.

It's not really my piece so i shouldn't really be blogging photos of it but damn its good so its worth sharing. A solid build, good book of snaps and a fine film of the band touring around Iceland (as in the volcano ash place not the turkey twizzler and prawn dip place).

I think in later years the 'ros went a bit far out in terms of their packaging but this ticks lots of ltd ed boxes, regardez..

One for Jolly perhaps? tap tap tap

What?

Driving back from Stamford there was an absolute beauty of a sunset. This was the view from the Worcester-Hereford road..

When the wife's away, a secret society convenes another meeting (one senior member, two junior). If you're hungry and if you can find them, maybe you can join... the toastie club.

I can't Stamford that, no can do. (actually i can, it was a tidy day out)

One of the tunes from Turandot

Not sung by this bloke when we saw it in Verona. Course not. Him dead.

Impressive though, no?
