The Books
 
I got their album The Lemon Of Pink today.

Wow , this has got to be one of the oddest things I have ever heard. Acoustic based songs with samples ,banjos , weird noses and all sorts of things thrown in.

They sound like Simon & Garfunkel as remixed by DJ Shadow.

Very very odd , but I like it.

I've only heard one single from this one..don't mind it...though I tend to drift off..wouldn't mind listening to some more though

I have an album (can't think of name - i think it's the recent one, but does have a green cover) and quite like it... a bit too quirky to recommend to everyone but I like it! :)

mirrorball 02-26-2006 03:40 PM

yeah..that's 'lost and safe'
they're quirkiness is a quirkiness that is an acquired taste me thinks. yuh huh

How many albums do they have?

I have a track 'Enjoy your worries, you may never have them again' on a Rough Trade compilation and really like their style, very chilled out. Was that just one track, or does the whole album have a relaxing feel?

Urban Hat€monger ? 03-07-2006 03:39 PM

I`d say most of the tracks are pretty mellow , quite a few have added electronica , others are just plain odd.

They have 3 albums out , Thought for Food ,The Lemon of Pink and Lost and Safe.

I can upload you the one I have if you want it

I've got thought for food, and it's definitely worth picking up. The intro to Motherless Bastard makes me laugh everytime I hear it

I wish they did more dates with Clogs (only the best band on the planet).

Listening to "Lost And Safe" right now. It's such a strange album, but everything fits so well. This is the type of music i like to listen to sitting outside on a warm night, with my eyes closed and the hookah going. Bottom line is I really like this.

their live show is amazing. so pretentious.

Sneer 05-12-2009 12:18 PM

Thought for Food is great, havent got anything else yet.

Janszoon 05-12-2009 12:42 PM

Yet another band on my long list to check out that I've never gotten around to. Anyone care to help me out? :)

Sneer 05-12-2009 06:46 PM

I'll see what i can do

bungalow 08-10-2010 11:11 PM

heard group autogenics I on the radio today, so i decided to get the new album. really liking it so far.

I bought Thought For Food recently on vinyl; it's an incredible album. The opener especially is such a great song. I really don't know why I haven't gotten around to hearing anything else by them.

indienerd 08-11-2010 01:45 AM

Oh my goodness, their new album is amazing!

James 08-11-2010 05:50 AM

I have Thought For Food and it's fantastic.

Rickenbacker 08-11-2010 08:56 AM

The new album is pretty good.
