Stop, woah yeah, wait a minute mr postman…
I’ve been waiting, such a long time…for my first serious batch of music for 2005. There’s a load of classical stuff, as recommended by someone here at work, but I’ll talk about that another time.
In the meantime, following my monthly trawl through Uncut..and a few other favourite sources, I’m now waiting for all these to arrive. Everything seems to be being released on January 24.
They made the two albums by Bright Eyes their albums of the month. I’ve never heard of him, so randomly chose I’m Wide Awake This Morning.
I notice, incidentally on Amazon, that people who bought this are also likely to have bought Mercury Rev’s The Secret Migration and sure enough, that’s on the list as well.
And, it turns out that if you like this, you might like lcd soundsystem’s eponymous album, which I also happen to have bought.
I’ve also been waiting for Rilo Kiley’s More Adventurous to come out, ever since finally getting into them last year . And, if I like this, Amazon tells me I should really like Bright Eyes other album Digital Ash in a Digital Urn which proves I am nothing if not predictable.
In the meantime, I’m spending some quality time with some of the music I bought last year but never really listened to enough. Bob Schneider anyone?
