Black Mountain

I know a band you just going to love, there called as the title says Black Mountain and are from Vancouver, Canada. 

Listening to "The Hair Song" (off there newest album Wilderness Heart) they have a real warmth to them, like drinking a fine porter in winter, next to a roaring open fire and a cat curled up by your feet. 



Then you change the scales completely by listening to "Let Spirits Ride", which sounds more like your caning it down Route 66 with the petal to the metal and smoking Death Cigarettes constantly.



This song "Set Us Free" is off the first self-titled album. 



I want to turn around now and say there playing some time soon, but there not. Its always the way, you get into an amazing band then you find out they were playing last month. 
But watch this space, because I'm not missing them for the world next time!

Live and Sleazy...

Pretty boring weekend, but Hal Cruttenden is very funny check him out here talking about being posh. Some guys at this forum seem to know who Donkey Pitch...bah bah bah are, some thing to do with Dubstep. And Hot Hot Heat are a  4-piece Canadian alt rock band, been around since 2001 and have opened for Weezer, Foo Fighters and The Killers. Not my sort of thing, I think they totally riped off The Strokes. The lead singer looks like one of those curly haired dogs as well...

On The Rocks

Now i was going to spend a lot of time making a seriously good post, but then it when all wrong. I couldn't decide what to write or to quote or how to post. So well...  

Anyway i found this blog yesterday and i think their pretty cool. Their on the ball about the music around Brighton which puts A Bit Chish and Fips* to shame.  

Wait did i just say that, god, get a grip!  

So i should really steal their stuff but I'm not that evil, and their local, (I think) Brighton like.

OK so check out this lot -------------^ at Breaking more waves.
