Not many people get these guys, which is a pity. All I hear is them complaining about the pitch of their voices. Just want to say, they are brilliant. Deep, ambient, rich and I like their lyrics. I hope the don't get too big, because they might go commercial.
Break some bread, the night's been blessed With a neverendingness, but none the less End come to soon Sweet concubine, the night's divine In a never ending line of lovers End come to soon On the cusp, the both of us Without any maybes but musts, that carry us To the end too soon Ink begins to blot, my eyes they blood shot, they've seen things they wish they have not, but it won't stop The end coming too soon Whose butterfingers read me like Braille? Whose dirty mouth would have me Mary Hail? Whose wholesome heart had bore down on me? Who ushers dreamers into such harems? Whose skin looked waxen in the failing light? Who down right danced me like a sailing kite? Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O Yeah-O X4
Have the album on LP & it is physically a bloody delight, let alone what pours into one’s ear-holes. On my Desert Island Discs list, & probably the one I’d save.
saw this somewhere else: "Singer Pete Astor had told his bandmates he planned to sack two of them and keep the band's name, but then had to go ahead with a gig at Hammersmith Palais, where he was pre-empted by guitarist Andy Strickland telling the crowd that the band were splitting up after the show." damn, ouch!
