Agreed, it's a thing of Northern Beauty. Accordions and glockenspiels, brilliant.

I'm not too keen on Elbow.
I have a CD of theirs.
'Cast of thousands' is it?
Or something like that.
They played in my town years back before anyone heard of them.
I didn't go.
Tooo youngg.

I'm kind of obsessed with The Seldom Seen Kid right now.

Anybody heard the new album?

Just heard "grounds for divorce" last night...****ing incredible.

Heh, that's not even the best song on The Seldom Seen Kid. Sure, it's got the rock anthem feel to it, but I'd say One Day Like This and Mirrorball impressed me more.

the first time I've heard of the band was last night. I don't think I should be knee deep in deep cuts yet.

Grounds For Divorce is a great fucking song. One of my favourites.

It's a tune for sure. Have you heard 'Coming Second' from their first album? It's quite similar, although not quite as good. It's still worth checking out though.

I managed to watch about 20 minutes of their Glastonbury performance. They hit a few off notes on Neat Little Rows and I think thy were better when I saw them live, but they were great anyway.
