Cool. Thanks. Didn't realize they had sample downloads now. Last time I checked I don't remember seeing any.

What a great track! "Films for radio" was Over the Rhine's first pitch at cross over into mainstream. I think this has something to do with why I don't like it

It is a brilliant pop album still! I'm just being very fussy

Ooooh...don't get me started about Amazon and the death of the high street music shop! We've just lost all of our Borders stores in the UK because of lazy internet shoppers who click on amaz....com. Now we don't have much of a high street worth bothering about.

Go easy on me. I'm a truck driver. I'm only home every other weekend. 18 wheelers are hard to get into music store parking lots, and the ...zon packages are sitting on my doorstep when I get home.

Lol - I can imagine the fun a parking attendant would have, trying to correctly administer a parking ticket on the correct part of your windscreen

best discovery this year would be entire grime genre

biggest single album for me within that is Treddin On Thin Ice by Wiley. massive
beats are more detached and cold than a lot of american hip hop type stuff, and Wiley's lyrics are great; alternatively playful, introspective, bleak and optimistic.



good thread by the way.

The vinyl comes with a double CD included. I don't own Five Days in May so, no comment on that.

Alas - by the time shipping and customs costs are added to the LP price from Canada to the United Kingdom, the LP costs 2x - 3x as much as it does in Canada. I get really upset when my favourite Canadian albums are released at the wrong time of the year and not coinciding with my travel arrangements
