It’s great. Got it on now. They’re one of my all time favourite bands but I wasn’t entirely sure how necessary this live album was, but it’s just joyous and sums them up nicely whilst adding some nice new takes on old classics and some of the deeper cuts.

There was a moment during wrapped up in books where it all just hit me in terms of 1. How much I love this band and 2. How much I love and miss live music.

My Burial/Four Tet/Yorke EP just arrived in the post, so looking forward to giving that a spin IRL.

Also enjoying the Landshapes album this morning so far. Sort of woozy off-kilter arty indie I guess?

Wow! My head is literally spinning with so many great recommendations that I want to listen to this week - just not sure where to start! And it’s still only Friday morning! Thanks, DiSsers. MT.

But first, next for me is Jane Birkin with Oh! Pardon tu dormais … for my Francophile fix.

Dino Brandao, Faber, Sophie Hunger

I only know Sophie Hunger, a German singing lady. Don’t know about the other two (or entirely sure how many different languages they are singing), but I’ve had one listen through of this album and it’s absolutely beautiful. Going straight onto my second listen now. Lovely voices and music.

Came to post exactly this. Not as immediate as the first album, and maybe doesn’t reach the same highs, but it’s more interesting and varied. I like it a lot!

Surprisingly (literally) alot of releases for mid December release day. Usually this week is exclusively Christmas novelty and greatest hits to get dad for Christmas.

GBV, Avalanches and Kid Cudi for me today.

Oh, the Rosie Carney is rather lovely. The only mis-step for me is Sulk but the rest is beautifully done.

totally agree, less immediate highs and can hear a bit more of the old Have a Nice Life style in there, but I can totally see it getting under the skin more. (in a good way) The last release of the year I was looking forward too and hasn’t dissapointed at all.

A live Belle & Sebastian album does not seem like the most essential thing at the moment. My love for them dropped off a cliff the moment I heard Dear Catastrophe Waitress. I almost didn’t bother listening to it at all, but som eof the other comments above made me give it a go.

And it turns out a live Belle & Sebastian album was exactly what I was needing after all. Even songs that I’ve never really liked, such as Nice day for a sulk, are filling me with a surprising amount of joy.
