petroniaConjure One - Manic Star: my favorite Conjure One track, meaning that - yes - I like it even better than "Center of the Sun". Which is saying quite a lot. It's an amazing song clear through, but come the bridge the melody soars impossibly - impossibly, like if you jumped out the window at that very second the girl's voice would catch and hold you in the air.
The Notwist - Consequence: I talk constantly about the Notwist. I don't think I've ever posted any Notwist. This is probably because I associate the Neon Golden album wholesale with Mirage of Blaze, much as I do with Songs of Faith and Devotion - they're both concept albums to my ears, with central conceits I'd rip off and order thematic Mirage fanfiction vignettes around if, er, I were writing any such thing. And... that's pretty much it. I guess discussing it doesn't involve as much of what Suze calls "lossy overhead" as I thought. XD
They sound somewhat like the Postal Service, only... slowed down and not as happy. XD Speaking of which--
The Postal Service - (This Is) the Dream of Evan and Chan: for those as don't have it already. Technically speaking this is before they started calling themselves the Postal Service, and came out as a collab on the Dntel album.
Kings of Convenience - Misread: because I seem to have tangled the Notwist and KoC into one semantic field, and to commemorate my and Aki's discovery that the guy who isn't Erlend in KoC is unexpectedly and unaccountably good-looking. How do you justify writing a twee forlorn-yet-danceable-in-a-Belle-and-Sebastian-sense song like this if you have Roman-statuary facial features? That, my friends, is not on.
(His name is Erik - can I just say that I love the names? - and while Erlend does DJ schtuff he appears to study architecture and psychology or something.)
Massive Attack - Dissolved Girl: a song for Yukiko. Those as know what I mean, etc.
