Haven't heard this, but I sure know that feeling you're talking about.

A glorious debut...

The energy on this album gets to me every time.

Every so often an album will blow me to pieces. It's probably some sort of celestial alignment where the volume has to be right, my mood has to be just so, and so on. This was one of those...

Bliss.

I felt like this when I heard the Stone Roses debut (some years after issue!) - but this Strokes album just doesn't do it for me - should do - but doesn't, I don't get it.

Debut from Aussie band formed in 2006. Singer reminds me of the guy from Fine Young Cannibals. Interesting sound. Discovered by the producer of the Arctic Monkeys debut, he must have seen/heard something. From these clips of live performances they look like a pretty good live act. Nothing really grabbed me, and the guys vocals seem so slurred on some tracks. I liked the music much more than the vocals, but then I'm not a fan of instrumentals, so that leaves me hangin'. Sweet Disposition must be the promoted single since there is a video for it.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Drum Song

Best Track - Soldier On

Who wants to know?
All that is gold, is rusted
No one will know
Seasons cease, to change, and..

How far we've gone
How far were going
So here and the now
And the love for the sound
Are the moments that keep us moving

Waves crash along
Battered lonely lighthouse
Tomorrow shes gone
And if not, some, they somehow
Are, these, hands, always

Well this side of, mortality is
Scaring, me, to death
To death

Don't think about it at all
Just keep your head low
Don't think about it at all

Soldier On
Soldier On
Keep your heart, close to the ground
Soldier On
Soldier On
Keep your heart, close, to the ground

Don't think about it at all
Just keep your head low
Don't think about it at all

Yeah..
Will you take me tonight
Yeah..
Will you take me tonight
Yeah..
Will you take me tonight

Yeah..
Will you take me tonight
Tonight

Soldier On
Soldier On
Keep your heart, close to the ground

Cocteau Twins - Blue Bell Knoll

Standard 4AD fare; Arty, ethereal, & slightly other-worldly.

Liz Fraser's sing-beautifully-in-an-imaginary-language vocals work very well, and like so many other 4AD releases, this is spell-binding...

The Dead Weather - Bone House

We Are Scientists - After Hours, such a catchy riff. Awsome song.
