Spotifriday #6 - This Week on DiS as a playlist
Plenty of goodness to choose from this week, we've had a whole raft of albums reviews, mostly well received records and then the Brand Neu! compilation. Phoenix and Future Of The Left both scored 9s, as did Camera Obscura. Funny what a little sunshine does to people's moods, eh?

With reams of tickets going spare in tight pockets, curling like thin-cleaved skin we begin the joyless, 12-hour odyssey home to bed. No sleep on concrete, no sleep on trains, with little to rationalise the ache...»
