A bit o' music

Time for some more tunes:

The Londonist Monday Music Review is entirely about the exquisite new album 'No CV' from My Computer.

Have been listening to it online at NME.com and it is a cracking piece of work - get over there and open your ears now.

More reviews, here and here.

'The Boy I Used To Be' is one of the stand-out tracks - not least because it has an instrumental chunk in it that sounds like the incidental music for a film featuring someone escaping from a maximum security stockade after having been wrongly convicted as an Islamist terrorist. In the year 2076. Honest.
Well, listen to it if you don't believe me.

Here's some older music as well - the 'Lottery Winners On Acid' EP from The Crimea. Lovely stuff.

Click on link, then on the Lottery Winners On Acid icon (second from the top
on the left hand side of the page) and listen away.

The eponymous track is rapidly turning into my one of favourite love-songs of all time. Awww...
Oi! Who's that making faux-retching noises at the back? Bastards.

Also, check out Scattergun's band to watch - Corporation:Blend. Their ' Chapter of Accidents' EP comes out on Monday 8th August (launch party at the Barfly London).
Track 3, 'Too Rich For Water...' ,is a stone-cold classic, I'm telling you.

Closer to, they're playing on Friday 29th July at the Camden Buzzard (formerly The Purple Turtle).

I'l be at both gigs, so if you see someone who looks like me, it probably is...

And finally, The Freelance Hairdresser. Fancy a bit of Chas 'n' Dave vs Dizzee Rascal? Oh, yes.
