The Silent Years- The Globe. A bit sub-Arcade Fire, but engaging enough for a freebie promo.
Cold Cave- Love Comes Close. Much touted new darkwave electro outfit. I wanted to like it, but it's a bit rubbish, really.
Memory Tapes- Seek Magic. Very pleasant, but blatantly ripping off New Order and the Cure with their melodic lead bass thingy.
Oen Sujet- Life in Quiet Places. An overlooked gem from the Loaf records stable this summer. Jazzy and glitchy.
The Phantom Band- Checkmate Savage. Another one investigated after reccomendations from round these parts. Very enjoyable, too.
Bryan Maclean- The Lost Tapes. Thanks for the heads up, Stevo!
The Move- Fire Brigade.
Procul Harum- A Salty Dog. Both of these are scratchy old 'music for pleasure' compilation albums, dug out after reading the Tony Visconti biography.
David Bowie- Scary Monsters. Likewise.
David Bowie- Another Face. Early Deram-era compilation, has the single mixes of Rubber Band and Love You Till Tuesday alongside other bits and bobs.
Tin Machine- II. Not sure why I listened to this.
Bert Jansch- Sampler.
Pussy Galore- Historia Del Musica Rock.
