2) Unbalance is growing on me with every listen. One of the year's stronger albums imo.
3) I'm enjoying the LP. It's a little on the short side but solid.
7) another decent new album. Laptop shoegaze, very New Order-y in places.

1 - http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/music/4204546 out on pre-order now.
2 - considering this is a just single mp3 of the new album you can tell i've basically just been listening to this all the time. its great, its there most experiemental sounding but at the same time poppiest record, synths have been artfully used with small parts stepping into that "hynpagogic pop" realm with added beautiful ambience.
3 - i emailed hima couple of times this week about coming to do a european tour, he seems keen for next year, thats cool.
5 - Rollercoaster on LP is £90 on ebay :(
7 - I just bought Ready For House on LP but this mainly plays of Six and Six and the Glasgow Live albums.
8b - Earthly delights LP has been purchased, nice.

2) Amy Blue (pre-2nd album demos and our last show mp3s)
3) Henry Rollins (live spoken word stuff)
4) Mukilteo Fairies (Jason Trail of Dead's old band, quite screamy queer hardcore on Kill Rock Stars I think)
5) Shellac (found a load of rare mp3's for their early vinyl, which I have or had, but still...! doris and wingwalker etc)
6) Birchville Cat Motel (quite brutal feedback noise)
7) Harry Connick Jr Trio (Piss off! I quite like it!)
8) Portastatic (found a live bootleg and working way through Some Small History)
9) Beatles (getting over irrational hatred. I like about six of their songs now)
10) Hoover (marvellous mathy hardcore band)
