The last album I bought was Radiohead's The King of Limbs. I think the album is very to the point compared to a lot of Radiohead albums which tend to delve into more areas and feel more explorative. It is a fantastic collection of songs but to be honest, I miss the feeling of sprawling experimentation-turned into something accessible. Don't get me wrong though, I loved the Amnesiac b-sides that are just full of crazy rhythms and spacey repetitive beats.

Felt - Forever Breathes The Lonely Word
I'm loving this album. Some nice infectious and intelligent 80's indie. I love the combination of jangly guitars and organ as if it was the most natural thing in the world. There some really fantastic songs on this album.



The Psychedelic Furs - All Of This And Nothing
I've been meaning to get into this band for a while. This album is fantastic, it's a sprawling and ambitious album but it's brilliantly executed. The album holds your attention all the way to the end and probably even gets better as it goes along. It has a nice dark vibe to it in places as well.



Crystal Stilts - In Love With Oblivion
Not sure how I feel about this one. It does have a bit of a dark and interesting feel to it but it's difficult to tell one song from the next as it all sounds the same. There doesn't seem to be much depth and doesn't really connect well with me. I will give it time though.

Amnesiac are not b-sides, it's unreleased songs from the Kid A sessions.

Midlake-The Courage Of Others
Loved John Grant's Queen Of Denmark, so it seemed like a good time to delve into their 70's throwback folk-rock sound.

Ben Greenstein over on another board was raving about the above, and I am always enchanted by Trevor Horn in Yes so y not, eh?



Mark Prindle, web reviewer, gave the above an 8/10, so erm, y not (again)?
