One of a few CD's we got from the Dead Pilot label this week was a CD by Me With Others. This is simple earnest singer songwriter folk pop with a very small edge. It's certainly passionate as the fellow really busts his balls singing at times. I mean that metaphorically.... I'd like to think that that he didn't actually damage his knackers. This sounds like a bedroom production and that's the last thing you want on your carpet. Simple songs and simple melodies all put together in a limited package with a sofa on the cover. 'You Can't Argue With Silence' is CD only in an edition of 50 copies.

Debut album from High Wycombe singer-song writer Me With Others. A brilliant album of acoustic tracks with hints of folk-punk anger and Jandek style experiments. All of the songs on here blow me away; it's the kind of album that lives in you; after your first listen you'll be able to whistle/hum along to every song without thinking. The vocal performance on the album is so heart felt; the strain in the voice in parts is pure excellence; reminds me of Jamie Stuart from Xiu Xiu when he really goes for it. This is a brilliant album for those who love their acoustic/alt-country/folk stuff as well as those who don't.
