A bit of a sleeper zzzz. Good office background music though.
Three more after this to complete my shuffle through the newest 700.

The only dredg album I don't have, how is it Scott? I haven't heard many glowing reviews of it, hence why I haven't gotten it yet.

I'm still a dredg n00b, but I enjoyed listening to this concert. Not really sure how the live versions compare to the studio versions, or whether or not their choice of a set list was good or bad.

I'm not a big GD fan, but I really like that one.
For me, a CD Baby find:
The Observatory
The CD Universe blurb: |
A Far Cry From Here
is this sextet's third album in four years, following on from 2004's
Time of Rebirth (a unique blend of folk-rock, jazz and electronica) and
Blank Walls (darker, edgier, more exploratory atmospheres) from 2005.
For their latest
work, The Observatory furthers the experimentation with sound,
arrangement and song-form in Blank Walls, but this time making an
ambitious quantum leap through textural re-imagining and metamorphosis. Assimilating
rich and myriad influences - Soft Machine, This Heat, Tortoise, Talk
Talk, Shining, Jaga Jazzist, Supersilent, Brian Wilson, Robert Wyatt,
Nick Drake et al - the band heads towards an adventurous new direction
buoyed by a distinctly different musical vision and vocalist/guitarist
Leslie Low's pensive, tender yet elliptical song-craft. 'A Far
Cry From Here' is a multifaceted entity where adventurous, far-reaching
musical notions exist in tandem with qualities of restraint and
intricacy. This sense of paradox further emerges in the album's
thematic and lyrical insights where hope, despair and resignation
conceive a yearning for free-determination in the midst of personal and
contextual limitations. Exploring and addressing multiple
levels and perspectives, emotional and musical, 'A far cry from here'
should strike a chord with fans of experimental and progressive-minded
classics such as Radiohead's OK Computer, Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden and
Wilco's A Ghost Is Born.
