Cause you’ve all been following me on last.fm<\/a> you’ll already know this .. but I am really loving these albums.<\/p>\n

At some point, it might even have been in the car driving back from Sydney, we heard one of the new Kings of Leon<\/a> tracks and loved it. I notice with some trepidation that they’re from Tennessee, which I flamed a few posts back, but oh well I’m sure they’re top blokes. I don’t know their earlier stuff that well, but there is some seriously good song writing on this album<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I had to get the Muse<\/a> album after listening it to a bit in Freiburg<\/a> with Nahd, not to mention my obsession with playing Knights of Cydonia<\/a> on Guitar Hero<\/a>. In fact “Exo-Politics” is a great song to play on the (real) guitar, Cydonia is not bad but a lot of the best bits are actually keyboard.<\/p>\n

Meg and I both loved<\/em> the last Emil\u00c3\u00adana Torrini<\/a> album, and I think this one is even better. It’s just a bit more varied and upbeat than the last, including the awesome dubish title track, and the very fun Jungle Drum which I think they’re playing on the J’s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And for cute lyrics and singable melodies you’ve gotta love Josh Pyke<\/a>. His newie<\/a> is awesome, also better than his last I think, which is often hard for a second album but I think he’s done it. Great to play along with, though some of the guitar is trickier than you’d think. I’ve been a fan of his for a while now<\/a>, nice to get another installment.<\/p>\n

Oh and did I mention he’s playing at Woodie<\/a>, rock!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
