Swingin' Ryan Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 I liked that. Certainly very different from the stuff on Takk, reminded me of a more ambient Animal Collective in places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 thanks for that link,that was a surprise, but can't decide whether i like it or not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Well, thats a little strange in an astonishingly good way. I really like the off-beat acoustic and the vocals are great too. I hope the rest of the album is in a similar style. Don't get me wrong i'd love to hear more vast glacial soundscapes but it's always nice to see a band totally flip round what they're doing and still carry it off with aplomb. Cheers for the link. The song is now also up on their myspace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lepeep Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 the video made me want to go frollicking in the forrest in the buff...but today's weather made me change my mind.Tyrebagger, 2pm, Saturday if anyone is interested... ho ho.....It is good to hear something completely different from them...I stopped buying their cd's as it was getting "same old same old".

Swingin' Ryan Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Just had another listen and this song really is brilliant, it's pretty much impossible to listen to it without ferociously stamping your foot. I did love the kind of stuff they did on Takk but they did it so well on that album they'd have trouble doing something fresh with that style of stuff. This sounds like it could be a rather brilliant 'summer album'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scootray Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 It's certainly different to previous stuff. I'm gonna have to listen to it a few times before I can judge it properly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfer_Rosa Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Anyone else heard "Festival" yet? Colin Murray apparently debuted it a couple nights ago on his show, so there's a few radio rips kicking aboutFree file hosting by Savefile.comIt's a lot more Sigur Ros-y than Gobbledigook, sounds proper ace to me.
