Fantastic album. I love the last two tracks as well. Their first three albums are all totally amazing.

Agreed, I can't wait for new material.

This is his debut album, just came out last tuesday. If you're a fan of Nick Drake you might really enjoy it.

Fractal_Mortality · 10-12-2008, 01:31 AM

I love Nick Drake, so I'll be sure to check that out. Thanks man.

Moore's music is a little more lush, but that subtle intimacy of Drake definitely reflects in him. Let me know what you think!

Earth FTMFW.

sideslash · 10-12-2008, 05:50 PM

blue sky black death - late night cinema (incredible instrumental hip-hop):

caspian - the four trees (as good as post-rock gets):

junius - blood is bright EP (probably my favorite EP ever - beautiful, heavy new wave + post-rock):

sideslash · 10-12-2008, 07:52 PM

Anyway...

sideslash · 10-17-2008, 11:26 AM

have you heard third? easily in my top 5 this year, and pretty different from their previous works.

Eternal Recurrence · 10-17-2008, 11:55 AM

Nah, I just got into them recently.
So, I haven't heard anything besides Dummy, but I'll definitely check that out.
Is the self titled worth getting?

And while we're at it, perhaps you have some trip hop recommendations for me?

You might be able to really appreciate this album...

Other good trip-hop(ish) stuff...Goldfrapp and Frou Frou. All of which just happen to be female fronted, but I'm not too big on tip-hop and these are the only I'm familiar with and a fan of.

"trip-hop"-wise Morcheeba is a good call, though completely murdered by being sold to a million adverts & commercials over here.

Goldfrapp is another good call but only if you stick to the first album. IE avoid (like the plague) the ones that follow it as they're just incredibly homo-erotic synth-pop compared to the mondo bizarro synth-ambience of the debut.

this is the one you want.
'Lovely Head' and 'Paper Bag' are simply stunning IMO...
'Lovely Head Video:

'Paper Bag' (tune not an officil video or owt):

Aside from that, not wanting to state the obvious, but Massive Attack are pretty much as mandatory as it gets with 'trip-hop'.

Surt · 10-17-2008, 05:26 PM

while I think about it, look up the following in the order listed:
Massive Attack
Glideascope
Sneaker Pimps
UNKLE
Tricky
Roots Manuva (not sure if stuff with almost-rap vocals is what you're after but his debut, 'Brand New, Second Hand' is really good for relaxing to)

BZM · 10-17-2008, 05:35 PM

Album never gets old. Genius.
