Look let's get it straight the Charlotte years were amazing. From Life Less Ordinary to Meltdown they ruled.
That said Ash are probably the finest pop/rock band of the last 20 years. Tim Wheeler is a genius songwriter. Rock Mcmurray could easily be in Weezer and Mark Hamilton cool as. BTW can someone clear up a query. IT's well documented that prior to Free All Angels Ash were near bankruptcy. As they have had a lean time of late is it true Tim Wheeler has subsidised his income as a sound editor for documentaries? There was a recent documentary on C4 where a Tim Wheeler was given this credit.
Extra's
The Duke is a legend regardless of what era we listen too. On top of that he has his ear to the ground and has championed everyone from Grandaddy to TV...
Did anyone watch the re-run of Extra's last night when he sang a song about pathetic little fat man? Genius!!
American Camden Crawl?
Were there any good Saddlecreek-style or EITS acts showcasing at SXSW? Check out Jake Bellows who is part of the Mogis/Oberst/Walcott touring band. He nearly blew Bright Eyes off stage at Oxford last week.

well done lads
bugger
needle in the hay
what really burns is that like jeff buckley elliot clearly had more magical music to offer.
elliot smiths music offered comparisons to the great neil young while also throwing his own distinct mark on the music.
