I've got a copy of a Skin too Few (see below) if your up for a mass suicide session soon? http://www.talkingpix.co.uk/Reviews - Skin Too Few.html
I wore a Nick drake t-shirt to Promise Boxing day '03. Some charva decided it would be a good idea to stamp on a glow stick, and it marked my top. It has been sat lonely in a draw ever since, which is how Nick would have liked it to be
yeah my mate played me some of their stuff, they sounded cool couldn't tell you much about them though
i've been listening to these since about '93 ish...got their lyrics on my school files they're awesome that's all you need to know...that & a few years back Adam Duritz..scruffy trampy looking lead singer pulled both Jennifer Anniston & Courtney Cox
Devendra Banhart is wicked. Don't think anyone has mentioned Sufjan Stevens have they? And Pete- Bright Eyes are awesome, Conor Oberst is a genius
Can't believe I missed off my latest favourite, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly. Can't wait to see him on the 6th of October.
Scott Matthews sounds good, he's on tomorrow night at the Cluny aswell, might pop along to see what he's like http://www.myspace.com/scottmatthewsmusic
Nope, but his band (the faint) are the boy! Download the Garden State soundtrack Pete, it's got a lot of acoustic, Nick Drake et al.. Iron and Wine is essential if not a bit gay.. and I quite like Ed Harcourt, but I'm not so sure.. Jose Gonzales is a one trick pony and Counting Crows are shit. (apart from colourblind and round here which are my guilty pleasures)
what's up the counting crows not cool enough for you??? don't listen to him..scruff has no taste...they do amazing acoustic versions of their songs
no they're whiney middle of the road easy listening crap like the rest of the stuff you listen to... stereophonics, ocean colour scene, athlete, damien rice, razorlight, snow patrol.... the ones I listed aren't cool, they just have more depth than a paddling pool.. you'd like ed harcourt..
each to their own..don't say the'yre shit cos you don't like them :tut: I listen to shit loads of other things scruffy boy i'll try to find something by him..c what i think
I didn't realise that Conor Oberst's band was the Faint! Counting Crows are fucking awful- up there with the MOR stuff like Matchbox 20 etc. Regina Spektor is by far and away from favourite acoustic artist at the moment.
