It may look like a pretty slim stack this week but that's only because of two reasons: The first is that I've been relatively busy trying to follow up with various friends and also going out quite a bit (Tues. was the only night last week I stayed in). The second reason is just that when I have been home (mainly to sleep and edit photos) I have been playing many of the previous albums I've already talked about (Lavender Diamond's Imagine Our Love) or the ones here on repeat. It's really not uncommon for me to develop a real passion for a song or an entire album so intensely that I crave it more than....chocolate!
But let's get started. I'm not really the type of person that loves collections of songs of a band (with perhaps the exception of the BBC sessions of quite a few bands) but Belle and Sebastian's Push Barman to Open Old Wounds is a really fantastic collection of deeper album cuts and b-sides throughout their career and I would highly recommend it both as a place to start if you are just getting into the band and as someone who already owns a few albums. I remember the very first time I heard Belle and Sebastian was when they just came out with Tigermilk and my friend Josh at university was dating some fabulous British boy who gave him a copy. He in turn made us a copy and I fell in love with the songs quite intensely and ate up everything they did afterwards with glee. I am not at all one of those people who thinks Tigermilk was their best...they've merely progressed and grown. As far as albums go, my favorite would have to be If You're Feeling Sinister with Boy With the Arab Strap and (believe it or not) Fold Your Hands Child, Walk Like a Peasant being close behind it. The collection has so many perfect songs on it with favorites being "The State I Am In" "I Love My Car" (though, I always change the lyric from car to bike when I sing it) "I'm Waking Up To Us" and "Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie."
Entrance's "Prayer of Death" is an album I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND for anyone who likes psych rock and is fans of bands like The Black Angels. I'll be posting pictures of their set opening for Lavender Diamond last monday later on today. Their set at the Empty Bottle was phenomenal and though I would suggest seeing them if at all possible, I would also say buy the album because there is the added component of a violin that really enhances some of these songs even further. When you listen to the album, you think revolution. Go listen to this band on myspace: www.myspace.com/entrancerecords
The Last Broadcast is an album I really need to hear on some days...I find songs like "There Goes the Fear" perfectly uplifting and "Friday's Dust" have that beautiful lushness that falls all around you like a heavy curtain. There are times when I'd rather hear their first album Lost Souls or their more recent Some Cities but at other times The Last Broadcast just feels right. I'd also like to say that Doves are a band that puts on a great live set and, though I've unfortunately never been able to get photos of them (I wasn't taking photos of bands unfortunately when I saw them the last couple of times), I hope to rectify that at some point in the future.
