Agree with @Anton about the new National album. Ive probably played that as much as any new album this year but I don’t think of them as a particular favourite of mine – not quite sure why that is.

@anton delays is an excellent reference.

Thanks @Anton. I enjoyed that.

Well I never! They’ve even written a song about Sweden.

I’m with @anton, this is about Delays. When the sun comes out, Faded Seaside Glamour is never far away. Singer and guitarist, Greg Gilbert has stage 4 bowel cancer. He is just 39 years old and has 2 children under […]

@anton I think it’s not a film that can bear repeated viewing, as script, pacing and editing are all primitive. But some great, great moments – and @twang it is a great era, when the studios had no idea what was […]

Am absolutely loving this, it’s really got under my skin now. Cheers @anton !

Fair enough @anton 🙂

@anton @kaisfatdad they’re on emusic if you’ve a sub.

@anton yep good shout – I love ‘The Strange Boutique’.

New Wire Mini LP on the way by the way if you weren’t aware:
