Hey. I'm still so behind on new music - I heard Humbug today, it had some good moments, but certainly leads a few listens to get into it seems, but I've only just started likeing their first album so I very very behind in those stakes! Haven't heard the horrors new one yet, have heard oddly good things about it though. Have you heard the Blue Roses album? It's the new name for Laura Groves who I included on that mix I sent you with the mags a while ago, it's a really lovely acoustic album. Off to reading festival on weds to get my Radiohead fix, also has Arctic Monkeys headlining, so will be interesting to see how the new material goes down live. Also I love the new St. Vincent, it's more restrained in a good way then her first. But so disappointed by many other new albums such as Jarvis, Peter Bjorn and John and Placebo.

Yes, that's the one, thanks! It's weird about the set because Fireworks was one of the best things I've ever seen - the middle section just had all these different rhythms melded together (12/8, 4/4, 3/4 and various combinations at half/double speed of those) and yet it still sounded as a whole, pretty mesmerising! Also Brothersport was great, it was a sort of house/raved-uped version, but worked really well at a slightly larger venue (about 5000 people)

Hollie - I saw AC in London last night, they were pretty amazing (although it did start very slowly, and I really didn't like the live version of My Girls.... but they hit it early and it took Dave and Noah a bit of time to warm up.) I didn't recognise a tune in the middle though, they dedicated it to Phil Lynott since it would've been his birthday..... the only describle feature was that it was quite long and for the first 4-5 minutes had a really definite 7/8 pulse grouped into 3+4 (as opposed to the usual 4+3)... but then it gradually crescendoed and they did that thing were there's about 50 rhythms going on at once....had some fairly melodic vocals too...... any ideas????
