ChezGiven 0 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Got the new Cut Copy and Iron & Wine albums for tomorrow. The Cut Copy one is great. 80's synth dance pop in the vein of Hot Chip/LCD soundsystem. For example... I got In Ghost Colours when it came out, bt tat didn't impress me as much. Just downed this after listening to above, and it's excellent so far, might just make a purchase. Champion. I'm not so keen on the Iron & Wine one. In future, can you not leave it 5 days between 'am listening to it' and 'the review'. Been that pressed for time i nearly bought it on the basis of your mention without listening first. Will have to listen to it now. WTF am I like, your concierge? I wouldn't buy anything unheard on the recommendation of mugs off here Always have a gander here first... http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/ I know grooveshark man. I wasn't being overly serious either, think I was just in a daft mood. You're more bell-boy than concierge anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest You FCB Get Out Of Our Club Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Apologies about the video but this is the best quality sound of this song on youtube. It's called Limassol by Maximo Park, best geordie band of the last 10 year imo. Love this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest You FCB Get Out Of Our Club Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Maxïmo Park were formed in Tyne and Wear by guitarist and founding member Duncan Lloyd with bass player Archis Tiku in 2000[citation needed]. They are named after Máximo Gómez Park (also known as Domino Park), located in Little Havana, Miami[citation needed]. Initially, the four founding members played several small shows including Manchester's 'In the City', which showcases unsigned bands in the UK. In 2003, the band decided they wanted a frontman as original singers Archis and Duncan wanted to focus on writing the songs. The then-girlfriend of drummer Tom English, noticed his friend Paul Smith singing along to Stevie Wonder's "Superstition".[1] When Smith was found, the band did not know if he could sing: "When he first joined we didn't know if he could; just that he was a lunatic jumping around in a suit, it felt like the last piece of the jigsaw". With Smith joining the band gave him demos of their songs and from then on started writing as unit.Around March 2004, a friend funded 300 copies of a 7" red vinyl single "Graffiti" and later released a vinyl of their tracks ("The Coast Is Always Changing" / "The Night I Lost My Head") that they recorded in their house in Fenham.

Tom 14013 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Nah they all moved to Newcastle man. Main guitarist/writer is from Derby, Keys from Yorkshire, Tiku on bass from Wigan. Tom - I think he's local but his involvement with Field Music would suggest he's from Sunderland or good as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14013 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I concede that much like but I thought they came across from that way - I suppose the accent is where people will say 'Geordie'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14069 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Speaking of Field Music, I was sitting next to Peter Brewis in The Cluny the other day. He was drinking some kind of shite coffee and his mate looked a bit like Gavin Peacock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14013 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Apparently they played a great gig at the cluny the other week - on top form - but the support band were litterally the worst thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, I was in The Vic on Low Fell and some bloke next to me at the bar was talking to Peter Brewis on the phone as well on the night of that gig. Small world.
