kids,


I just found this band today.. and I am really enjoying what I hear. even though it's weird when the vocals are with scottish accent.. still. very enjoyable - for fans of Appleseed Cast and generally all shoegaze/sadcore which is a bit more modern. What I mean, basically word shoegaze is associated with bands like MBV and Slowdive. This is not as reverb-ish.. more modern I guess. Still, a very nice band.

here's their album I already listened to:

listening to that right now.. still the autumn/winter album seems so much better to me. I mean this is decent, but THAT is whoa :)

the fireworks.. well, it's not like I like/dislike them now. I'm still quite indifferent to that band

to each his own i guess... i kinda like them better, they hit on something with me, the climaxes seem higher in the music.

so new album not so good?

again, I am still quite indifferent to the new album cause I am enjoying the other album today :) maybe it will seem super awesome tomorrow. I don't know :)

This band is OK.  I still prefer poppier shoegaze like The Pains of Being Pure At Heart compared to this stuff.

I did not mean anything like 'wow look these are on the front row of shoegaze' and you know that. I do prefer the more romantic/mellowy bands too, yet still this is a good find I guess :)
