Sounds like we are in the same frame of mind on this fantastic Saturday evening. I like it! Wink

^^So what you're telling me is that there's actually people out there, who aren't Danish, who know about these guys? Shocked

I really dig the album and don't know why it's gotten the bad rep it has, but I do prefer their earlier work nonetheless. Hey if you're interested in these guys, then I just posted a recent concert of em in the "I need vocal orientated post-rock" thread. It's a performance with the Wordless Music Orchestra, and the whole thing is professionally caught on film.

Will check it out!

I prefer their earlier work as well. In fact, Magic Chairs is my least favorite even counting Piramida, but it still has some great tracks on it, despite its sometimes passionless pathos.

I agree. I think it's a tad too 'pretty' for it's own sake. Still pretty good though. I'd rather listen to it, than say a Celine Dion album.

Hands down better than Celine Dion. Most albums are that way, anyways, by default. Wink

I think the only reason I discovered Efterklang was because of iTunes. Their albums were on sale, so I bought Parades/Under Giant Trees and Magic Chairs.

I've seen them live a couple of times. The first being at the Roskilde Festival some years ago. I knew nothing about them, but then again some of the best experiences at festivals tend to be the ones you don't plan imo. I do remember dancing quite a bit.

Last 2 tracks of Kayo Dot's HUBARDO

What's really strange is that these last two tracks, listened in isolation away from the whole album, sound like they are from a completely different album. Hubardo starts out like a dark black metal album and gradually morphs into a jazz fusion album. Really strange. What a piece of work this is.

I ditched the Ache album. Too "happy" for me right now. I bet it'll get the Moon Safari crowd moist in their knickers.

Instead I'm watching/listening to Rare Goat's 2012 performance at the Red Light Cafe. Steve your firebird looks so freaking sweet!

I really dig the post-punkish flavour you bring to the riffing Big smile

Ha!

Thanks for watching that. We're fortunate we had someone in the crowd who did such a nice job filming the thing - I think she's a friend of Bob's. My current avatar is a still from that performance, btw.

Yeah I thought it looked familiar.

I just heard Be Yourself. I think I prefer your drummer's vocals over Jack's actually.

Nice avi Steve-o - and you're wearing a PT shirt underneath your Hells Angels jacket too Cool
