Contenders! Ready?
Wednesday 18 October 2006 – 22:34I’m just copying Andy with this post.

Audrey – Visible Forms – I have raved before so suffice to say it’s all brilliant

Midlake – The Trials of Van Occupanther – comparisons to The Flaming Lips and Mercury Rev haven’t dampened my enthusiasm

Espers – Espers II – stand out: Mansfield And Cyclops

Tara Jane O’Neil – In Circles – tjo’s voice is oddly sexy – check this out
My albums of the year seem to equal the albums I have bought this year (except Nina Nastasia’s On Leaving – Andy is a big fan and really likes this new album but I feel it’s a bit dull lacklustre and, rather like PJ Harvey’s, I think her first two albums (Dogs and The Blackened Air) are head and shoulders better than the subsequent ones).
One Response to “Contenders! Ready?”
Funny because I adored “Run to Ruin” – but think “On Leaving” is closer to the first two albums than that one. I do love them all though – and “dull”? I don’t think so!
