Bit of depressing week one way or another, so have been hard put to get off the sofa and change the music. So repeat plays have been largely limited to:
The Pop Group - We Are Time
Sort of billed as their third album, it's actually a compilation of much earlier demo/Peel/live stuff, very similar to the recent Cabinet Of Curiosities set. There are a couple of gems here, but as an album it plays like the mishmash it is. Still, you can never get to much of Mark Stewart's righteous indignation, especially at the moment.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Mosquito
Started off a bit underwhelmed by this but after a lot of plays this week it's won me over and the songs have burrowed into my head nicely. No a massive departure for them, but seeing as I've liked all their records that doesn't really upset me too much.
Otherwise:
Can - Saw Delight
The Durutti Column - LC
Section 25 - Always Now
New Order - Movement
The Royal Family & The Poor - "Art/Dream/Dominion" 12"
Crispy Ambulance - The Plateau Phase
The Chameleons - Script Of The Bridge
The The - Soul Mining
Lonelady - Nerve Up
Nils Frahm - Felt
OMD - English Electric
Bjork - Vulnicura
Lonelady - Hinterland
New Order - Music Complete
Ummagma - Frequency EP
