woven hand - consider the birds

what a gorgeous album. quite possibly contains a few of the
most depressing songs i have ever heard - check 'into the
piano'. kind of folk rock sound with hmm, nick cave-ish
lyrics/vocals..well worth checking out.

baggsy being lennon.

Shotgunning Lennon would have been pretty tasteless.

why haven't you mentioned him before? i did a search and
only came up with one hit for him, and it was just some list
which was quite disappointing really..

I've only had it for a few weeks, and just look how much
genuine reaction this post has gotten, hehe.

GOOSE EGG

Didn't seem to me like something a lot of people here would
be into. I usually only start posts about electronic music
here, gets more reaction. Not that people here wouldn't
enjoy this. Anyone who likes Nick Cave or the Angels of
Light et al would dig it.

:)
well, i only gave it a proper listen today and already like
it this much. + i only have his previous album and that's it
:)

do you know beequeen? some reviews even sort of
compare it to later beatles period although i can't really
see any resemblence :)

and you should speak of non electronic more often, you know
a LOT.

Oh I post about non-electronic music all the time. I just
don't start many topics about it. Here's what
happens when I post a topic about something like this.
Kekeke.

I'm downloading Beequeen off of you right now.

:)

crazy for that analord things though, and don't expect
beatles type heh

Ahh what a great shameless cross-linking scheme. Tuxedomoon
is one of my favorite artists ever, I was pretty disapointed
when nobody cared. Grab Half Mute and Desire from me
sometime. Very cool, visionary sounds for the early 80s.

I'm looking for the old band by the guy that is Woven Hand,
Horsepower 16. If anybody here has it, I want it. I've had
it queued for a week and SLSK's search is lame-o.

im getting cabin in a sky first, i'll see how i like it and
that grab those other two from you, unless this last one
wasn't that good?

i'll see if i can find 16 horsepower..i thought they were a
pretty famous band, since woven hand is just singers side
project..

Cabin the Sky is good, but it's over two decades removed
from their best stuff. The Tux was more radical-er back
then. Young people > old people, always.

Beequeen wails, very pleasing to the ears. The best album of
2005 so far (only the 3rd one I've heard but still).

I saw a programme on the new breed of country artists and
they played some Woven Hand tracks, which I liked. I had
heard some 16 Horsepower before and liked his voice, but
never took the time to get into them. I d/l the latest Woven
Hand album and I really enjoy it, so I'm going to check his
other stuff out now. The music seems quite honest and you
can tell this is something that matters, and that's nice.

This album is excélléncé. Kind of reminds me of a more
aggressive-sounding frankie sparo in a way... very bleak.
More listenerz pleaze. Anyway:

Thanks Goran, You Have Good Taste In Music And Have
Enriched My Life A Bit.
