What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

So now to the bands of today that actually matter. Cos they're good, rise way above the hype & release thought provoking, original music. Arcade Fire are Rough Trade's latest bagging & with immediate effect they make me think of The Walkmen. FB says The Waterboys but his hearing is tuned into a rusty wireless in an underground bunker in Shitflap, Nowheresville. There's dozens of bands you could namecheck but I'll just say this Montreal 5 piece are a shining beacon of hope in today's cannibalistic desperate musical climate. 'Funeral' is a lovingly packaged collection of great rock songs Grand, stirring, fascinating, moving & incredibly adept & accomplished. 10 tracks on CD & G/Fold vinyl.

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
