[Moods For Mallards]

I like their album.
I would go as far as to call it 'very good'.
I will physically buy it when it's available.
They remind me of what I think all olden day indie that you all enjoy sounds like, but in a good way.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

They also sound successful. As in, the songs are melodic and catchy. So this thread will probably be deeply uncool when they headline Oxegen in 2011.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Oh, and they also continue the trend of singers who are not from Scotland singing in a vaguely Scottish accent.

nick is not impressed, find out why.........................LATER!

 

[Jill Hives]

I heart Nick.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Yeah, I don't really like it anymore either.

 

[BonsaiSuperstar]

In fairness, disapproving of your son's stalking subjects is what you do when you're a dad.

Oh did he/she, now?

I've just had my third full listen to this album. Hmmm.
I do like it.
But do I love it? No.

no one has enough time to love an album anymore

This is true until you're unemployed.

she did indeed

though, like most sports, I am pretty rubbish at pool

no one has enough time to love an album anymore

I would have agreed a few months ago, but then Merriweather Whatever by AC came out, and I flipped out

is that a challenge?

 

[Moods For Mallards]

is that a challenge?

It sure is.


Oh yeah, I totally loved that Animal Whatever album. Well, the first 3 songs or so, I kind of drifted after that and haven't got back to it yet. Amazing album though.

I have it on headphones right now for my second listen so far. No sign of me flipping out yet, but I'll keep doing my best, and let you know how I get on

stick with it, it's a grower... also benifits from full on speaker action, the Low End is HUGE

surely you as a dad can relate to My Girls and Daily Routine

Make sure my kid's got a jacket
Keys and coat and shoes and hat
Strap a stroller to my back
Bouncing along every crack

 

[Moods For Mallards]

If the listener has to relate to an album in order to appreciate appreciate it, then the album shouln't be appreciated.

I love that Pains album - they were selling advance copies of it back when they supported the wedding present before Christmas. It's not particularly groundbreaking or anything but they do the fuzzy indiepop thing really well. They were great live too and are apparently back in the UK in May - any chance somebody would put them on here again?
