You know those mornings when you can't really figure out why you woke up about six hours before you thought you would, you can't get back to sleep so the only real option is to sip coffee and sit around 'til a mate or two happens to be awake as well? These albums are pretty good soundtracks for that, for some reason or other. Also, I'm much more in the mood for something chilled than opening my mind to something new, so a couple of the old favourites can't go too far amiss. |

Nick Cave is one of the absolute best without a doubt though. He's probably another one of my most listened-to artists over the last 7 or 8 years, or however long I've been listening to what I'd call decent music (long before I started my LastFM account then). It's a real shame that discography thread that was started about him went under - it's pretty tempting to start a new one at this rate... |

I've been somewhat obsessed with Nick Cave in the last half a year and he's my most listened to artist on last.fm for that period.
I love Boatman's Call and it's actually my nighttime album (especially when I'm bussing home after 10 pm). Even though it's all ballads, it somehow never gets boring. Brompton Oratory is fantastic. No More Shall We Part isn't half bad either.

Built to Spill - Perfect From Now On
I've decided to take a break from the headphones (partly due to my computer problems and inability to update my iPod) and play some music on the office's built-in speaker system. Subjecting everyone to the tunes of sidewinder.

Not much to say really, absolutely blown away by this record. Really believed that they had to take a step back with this one from Alligator and Boxer so tried not to get my hopes up. Astonished at how good this is, possibly better than their last two. Absolutely brilliant, AOTY-quality record here.
