Stop raiding my music library, Nath! More of a fan of Idlewild's later stuff, but I have a soft spot for the spikier early albums too. And The Antlers are incredible, Hospice is so intensely emotional, and Burst Apart's fantastic too.

Aha it is rather uncanny! It's probably got something to do with us both being miserable gits at heart.Quote:

Only bought Burst Apart this week and I'm hooked, it's alot easier to listen to than Hospice. I have to really work myself up to listen to the latter, because it's so devastating.
The xx - 'Missing'
Loving Damien Rice's debut album at the moment, as well as Jose Gonzales 'Veneer' and quite a bit of Jamie T.
This is in addition to my usual daily doses of Neutral Milk Hotel, Smiths, Radiohead and Elliott Smith.
Currently got The Milk - Tales from the Thames Delta, on repeat, as well as Michael Kiwanuka.
Lot's of Manchester Orchestra.
Just to update you BlackSheep, the last couple of days has seen me download the entire discography of Okkervil River. God, these guys are incapable of writing a bad song!
I approve. Also check out Shearwater, started off as an Okkervil River side project before they split into two seperate bands. They're really good too.Quote:
