Yeah I listened to talk talk for the first time about a week before I wrote the first track so I think it seeped in there somehow!
I need to work out how to do the self-employed tax return shit and that before I put it on bandcamp which is causing me some anxiety, hopefully I can work it out.
Yes, sorry I only got around to listening to it this morning. My plans to listen to it on the train to my parents were scuppered by Southern Rail putting on a rail replacement bus service. Instead I drove (which meant I couldn’t drink:( ) and I couldn’t get my phone to connect to my car stereo.
It’s really good, as others have said you should put it on Bandcamp, I’d certainly purchase it.
I’m going to listen to it again after lunch, and give it more attention and note down my favorite songs, as I was being interrupted a bit today.
Hey @Bamnan I’ve had a listen at work this morning & it’s genuinely great.
Fave tracks on 1st listen:
Baptism - Love the sparse Talk Talk vibe on this, great opener.
Family Affair - Really like the vocal on this one, lovely lyrics too.
Sad Trombones - This is quite hypnotic, kind of like one of those 10+ minute Yo La Tengo songs that pass by blissfully.
Will definitely listen again & would absolutely buy it.
Also took a listen to your excellent cover of Thunder Road. Fair play,
and yeah I guess “death” is kind of the theme of the album, some things are specific to my friend dying last year, others not so much but I dunno hopefully the dry sense of humour is kind of detectable too.
