Thanks, no need unless you've got one handy at a good bitrate (I'm otherwise resourceful). The guy on the other board mentioned he had "tried to avoid the hype" so I immediately thought Pitchfork must be involved. Sure enough, they reviewed the album and it scored 8.2 I think. That might explain the spread. It already has 8 reviews on RYM too, which is a lot for a recent and underground electronic album.

This is kind of obnoxious and I should probably find it annoying but, on the contrary, I love it. I'm really wondering why I didn't check it out sooner.

All of which reminds me, I still haven't got round to looking for any of the soundtracks she's done. Must get on with finding them that soon... Sleater-Kinney - Dig Me Out Proof that girls can rock out too, and actually be quite good at it. Very good album - one of those that works best at maximum volume. The Future Sound Of London - Environments II Another example of some of my favourite ever sleeve artwork. As for the album itself, it's part of what FSOL have been up to since the Isness/Otherness, that being a series of four minimalist ambient albums. This one starts out a bit dull, but really picks up with its second half. Not as interesting as Environments I overall though. |

Anywho I be digging. Gothic Rock week made me dig this up, what a great band Fields Of The Nephilim were. Three absolute brilliant albums and this is my personal favourite. I used to always think the women on the cover of this was wearing a cowboy hat, now I realise it's her hand. Pretty much perfect New Wave and they never matched their debut. Working on my Blues comp reminded me to listen to this again, I enjoyed it when i listened ages ago and always told myself i'd keep it top of the pile. Now I realise I should of. Skip's a real legend and this is just fantastic Blues. |

FOTN are one of my favourite bands ever. Good call. They have made around 8 albums though but only 3 and a couple of E.P's with the 'classic' line up. Have you checked out Rubicon or Eden House with ex members at all?
Eden House, released an album last year. Love this:

I hadn't listened to Boris in a while and this is a band that I really love. Waiting for some new material, that's all. And got this album the other day so I listened to it again.
