Band Members: Rod Jones, Colin Newton, Andrew Mitchell, Luciano Rossi, Roddy Woomble
After five years away, Scottish alternative rock band Idlewild return with new album Everything Ever Written. The band’s eighth studio recording represents a new chapter, both personally and creatively - featuring twelve tracks of alternative rock woven together from strands of Scottish folk, Americana & Hebridean psychedelia. Produced by the band’s guitarist Rod Jones and mixed by John Agnello (Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr.) whom they collaborated with on their 2002 release The Remote Part and augmented by new members Luciano Rossi (piano, organ & vocals) and Andrew Mitchell (bass, guitar & vocals), Everything Ever Written is Idlewild’s most eclectic output to date.
I don't mean to alarm but I started dabbling in y fronts and diamond print jumpers, but is it such a bad thing? Dougie house reinvented the sliced loaf for me.
There is no time out of mind around you All things must pass away All things have memories Closer than their living day No time out of mind around you Everything must pass away The words have meanings Readers have writers Bigger than the consequence they have You are bigger than the monuments we have And yet you call yourself a heartbreaker There's still no time out of mind around you The characters fall away On a Paris street corner that fades into the day But for unexplained reasons you Publicised your life away The words have meanings Readers have writers It's not the consequence they have It's bigger than the monuments we have And yet you call yourself a heartbreaker The words have meanings Readers have writers They try without trying And they lie without lying And they always lie The words have meanings And the meanings are bigger than the monuments we have You are bigger than the monuments you have And only lost when your heart was broken
Idlewild first tracks were brilliant.. Then they lost me for years with their mainstream pop songs... I'm glad they're back with the better of themseleves as the first era of Idlewild... Yeah !
