In a good way. <BR/><BR/>I have been searching for Lykke Li's cd for some time now.

After careful consideration though it landed there purely because of its overall effect on me this year. Gobbledigook was such a wonderful single and seemed like such an amazing direction for the band to take but alas it seemed to stop there. There is no doubt the rest of the album is terrific but it didn't reflect that same artistic leap as that initial single. For that reason, after careful consideration that is where it ended up.<BR/><BR/>So my apologies; I know they are a favourite of yours (as they are mine). But if I picked these purely with my heart it wouldn't represent a truly honest assessment of the artists' final work.<BR/><BR/>It will balance out I am sure as it will no doubt be placing highly on many lists this year.<BR/><BR/>Glad you picked up on No Age. A band to watch for in coming years for certain!<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>Sean (Who really has nothing personal against Icelandic musicians.)Sean Wraighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16718335799999696808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804068863677744418.post-74625585185144715722008-12-01T06:33:00.000-05:002008-12-01T06:33:00.000-05:00No Age's Nouns art the awesomeness!

I posted a video for you. Show you some primo Lykke moves for the upcoming party season. I know I'll be practicing them. <BR/><BR/>What are your thoughts on the Black Mountain CD? I like their first a little better but this one is an interesting progression. I suspect we'll be seeing a lot of them in the years ahead.<BR/><BR/>DALE - You are not old. Not by a long shot. Your Jefferson Starship t-shirt really has to go though.<BR/><BR/>sSean Wraighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16718335799999696808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804068863677744418.post-24808818434159737222008-11-30T10:12:00.000-05:002008-11-30T10:12:00.000-05:00It's official, I'm old!
