Further Listening on Those Shown Below
Due to some unremitting need to post about all the things I'd recently acquired, some of the things I said were a bit too hasty...
The AMT really isn't all that soft after all. Still the same old over-amped guitar (nay, verily, everything is over-amped) on most tracks which I find sonically annoying more than anything else.
The Coxon is actually quite terrific but I still think I'll grow to hate it.
Gang Gang Dance are actually pretty good once they stop doing shit improv. I dunno - maybe it's all improvised but as soon as they add a steadier beat, some actual chords and some vocal lines it hangs together pretty well.
Junior Boys - not half as ordinairy as I first heard them to be. Lots of good melodies and, in the later half of the record, the disco-ish electronics and the vocals meld together very well indeed.
