What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)

Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011

With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread.  I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.

 

Anyway, links:

Yeah, maybe, though their first album as a foursome is loads better. I don't think the guest vocalist thing on Gloss Drop works very well, tbh.

 

From the above, 'Ice Cream' has a fine video...
