The other songs just sound like outtakes from The Big Roar but 'The Butterfly's Last Spell' sounds pretty good.
I've only heard The Big Roar (2011) and A Balloon Called Moaning (2009) so they were all new to me, except of course "Chwyrlio". I agree with you though, "The Butterfly's Last Spell" is the best song on the EP.



Blonde Redhead - Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons (2000)

My first experience with the band (I was told they were similar in sound to Autolux) and I have to say I quite enjoyed it. Their were a few more mellow relaxing songs then I was anticipating, but they were still well orchestrated so I can't complain. I'll definitely be checking out some more of their music so if anyone has any recommendations I'd appreciate it.
