Band called Nine Horses and album called Snow Bourne Sorrow. Typical and brilliant. get some!!!
I´ve been listening Katatonia"Viva Emptiness" . Great album from this Suede band. The lyrics are excellent!

Looking at the desert island discs thingy and seeing someone else listing a magazine album, made me think of their old bass player - Barry Adamson. I have one of his CD's 'Soul Murder' does anyone else have any others and what are they like?
