What is everyone on Cluas currently listening to? And what are they looking forward to hearing?
Listening to:
- The Frames 'The Cost' : Really loving this new album.
- Grizzly Bear 'Yellow House' : An excellent album that keeps getting better.
- Dension Witmer 'Are You A Dreamer?' : Soaked in delectable tender melodies.
- The Black Keys 'Magic Potion' : A return to form for one of the best blues-rock bands around.
- The Marshall Tucker Band 'Anthology' : Surprisingly, a great collection of tunes.
Looking forward to:
- The Decemberists
- The Long Blondes
- The Shins
- The Things
- The Marshals
- Cap Pas Cap

It's wonderful - really ambitious, brilliantly realised!
I can't wait to hear Joanna Newsom's new record Ys. Whispered reports suggest it's very special indeed. |

Wasn't a big fan of their last EP 'Chulahoma'......I know they were cover tunes but I was expecting the type of songs that appear on the new record. Looking forward to seeing them in TBMC.

I don't really like the new Decmeberists one, but Joanna Newsome's one is pretty good. Bit hard to get round the track times (12 min each approx) but its still pretty good. Does anyone have the shins one yet?

Spot on Norman, Rubber Factory a wonderful album and a reminder of how good a guitar can sound. Chulahoma nuthin special and, after only a single spin, mind you, not at all impressed with th new one - sounds like it was recorded in a barn....really lookin forward to th gig though.

Can't wait for new Shins record. Also think Cap Pas Cap is gonna be one of the Irish releases of '07. Gotta say The Things do very little for me live, and I can't imagine things will be better on record |

I know I mentioned this before but :
1: Doesn't the male singer lets the album down?
2: And,'Reunion', it sounds a lot like 'God Bless Mom' by the Frames??
Current listening :
Damaged - Lambchop
Kick your Ass - Yo La Tengo
Let me introduce you to my friends - I'm from Barcelona
Poni Hoax - Poni Hoax (Best album I've heard in a long time)
Fambly Cat - Grandaddy
Looking forward :
New Sparklehorse
New Jape
New LCD Soundsystem
New M83

Oh man bring on The Black Keys in TBMC!!
I've never seen them but a mate who has been at a good few of their gigs in the USofA says the mojo and chemistry they work up on stage is savage!

Yeah, it's a grower. 'Up to You' is his best work yet |

I think the male singer is okay but the female vocalist is outstanding, I think her name is Amy Millan or something and she's got her own album out???
New M83?????!!!!! D'ya have more details? Last album was exceptional. |
