anyone else heard this Danish band!? I just got their album a short while ago and it's fucking AMAZING!
check em out: http://www.myspace.com/mew
NO this is not advertising..
album is called ...And The Glass Handed Kites.
like a cross between Sigur Ros and Meshuggah! heh for lack of a better description
rad band.. rad rad band.
the zookeeper's boy has been on the radio a lot.
his voice takes some getting used to. cool album though. bad artwork, but cool album.
ha yeah.. cheesy artwork... yeah, I liked the music a lot before I started liking the voice.. but the last few listens has been fine.. think I'm used to it already. Which is good.
Mew is ok
but Mewtwo is way more powerful
absolutely killer album. loving it.
I got it quite a while back but never listened to it. I'll give it a go if it's that good.
tis PaulyG!
i've only got frengers, their album before this one, and it's totally brill. saw their new song on rage and wasn't so into it. oh, and their big in japan!!!
the opening couple of tracks (that are all joined together) are worth it alone..
oooooh it's killer!
The "like a cross between Sigur Ros and Meshuggah!" has got me very intriuged.
hehe.. just nicey nice melodic vocals with lots of harmonies over math-esque rock.. from the first song I was sold.
Can gmail me something? (since you got me juxxing would only be fair)
dunno how or what or eh? send you an mp3?
check out their myspace page listed above..
I'm a poor man on dial up.. otherwise I'd do something fancy with mp3s...
Ok will check their myspace- cheers Mr ToD!

Oh yeah. It's 156. It was in Danish anyway. Oh no it wasn't. Sorry. Don't you just love goodbyes?
is 'A TRIUMPH FOR MAN' the album they released After '...and The Glass Handed Kites'?? And never saw a local release so I only found out about it last week when I found it to download!??
What an incredibly unremarkable album (so far). What happened to these clowns!?
Nah, it's their first album.
Nothing tops Frengers.
^^^^ yep.
ah yep... just wiki'd them... I had the last two albums, but been chasing the others for ages. Found a torrent for their entire discography and downloaded, but it had the chronology wrong. But I see on the Wiki page that their old albums were re-released after the success of the last album.
Frengers is awesome, but And The Glass Handed Kites is a major achievement. Only problem with it is it goes too long... they could have cut the last 4 songs off the end and it wouldn't have made much of a difference.
Seems like they've almost finished the new album, with Rich Costey producing again (Frengers). Nice.
Jesus, anyone else heard this thing yet?
What thing?
EP is really growing on me Earl. Can't wait for the album.
It's around urq. Got duckworth lewis for ya today.
ATGHK was one of my albums of the year when it came out... can't wait for the new stuff!!
Mine too^. This thing is something else.
Your a good man Earl. What time you arrive on Saturday?
6am.
Yikes!
new album is pretty impressive.
Go the new album on double vinyl on Saturday. I wasn't sure if it could top Frengers and ATGHK but I'm loving it so far .
