This band are still painfully underrated.

I need to re-listen to all of their albums ASAP... I still find it incredible that this band were swept under the carpet the way they were.

part of my dumb animus toward the arcade fire is people losing their shit over 'funeral' when 'cedars', released not that long before it, had been relatively unheralded. i know it's not a competition but pitchfork nation can sure be easily blinkered

but...in a rare stroke of inspiration, pitchfork gave cedars 9.4 iirc

oh, 9.1

that's still a LOT for a british indie band

Pianos Become the Teeth sound like an emo band again and I'm not sure how to feel about that yet

that's a great review for a killer album but they never became one of pitchfork's hype bands, despite ruling way harder than some i could name

i really loved this band at the time but for the life of me, i can't remember one thing about them other than they were mellow. i own two or three CDs.

just found and added 'amber' to the archive.I feel I have missed out on something rather special.

and it's only their third best album!
― imago, Friday, 3 August 2018 18:49 (five years ago) link
so I see. however, I was not on the labels mailing list re earlier stuff so this will have to suffice.
― mark e, Friday, 3 August 2018 18:52 (five years ago) link
it's pretty good for something that will have to suffice

It's Getting Light outside was always a great mix opener.

Anything new from Jason Pegg since his 2nd solo album? I can't say those made much of an impression on me, though I did enjoy them.
