I've been wanting to check out some Budgie for quite some time but have yet to get around to it. How's the album?

Not sure yet, as I haven't had a chance to listen yet. But I plan too soon and will most definitely let you know!

Good Idea ... If there is much I can see on the net, I think I can make some traditional Chinese music thread in the World/Folk music section - (Tho usually my threads die such a painful death).

This is a must. :thumb:

I don't really buy albums or download anymore, all about discographies. But I'm looking forward to these guys debut. If it's anything like their first single, they may be the first new band with any real talent in a looooong time. (IMO, I invite you to prove me wrong.)

I took my time getting this album because of the disappointing reviews. I finally manned up and got it today and I'm just about to listen to it. I hope I'm not as turned off by this album as a lot of people I know are.

Budgie - Never Turn Your Back on a Friend

From the nice folks of MB. :beer:

Not really bad, just dries up at a few spots. There are some pretty kickass moments though. Scumbag Blues and Elephants are both solid tracks.

Pivot - Make Me Love You More

An interesting post-rock album with heavy electronic influences. At times it seemed to get a little glitchy at times, however in a good way.

Glitch is good, unless overdone of course. Strange though that I never noticed much glitch in this album. Maybe it's subtle enough, or I'm just used to some amount of glitch in every electronic album I listen to so I don't even notice it or pay special attention to it.

Wait...Make Me Love You More? Is it a remix album? :D
