Sour’s Hibi no neiro (daily melodies), directed by Masashi Kawamura, Hal Kirkland, Magico Nakamura and Masayoshi Nakamura (goodgeneral.com), is a mind-boggling video that has to be watched a few times before one realizes how (simple yet) complicated it is!
Shot with nothing but webcams from the group’s fans around the world!
Track #3 of this album has haunted me since this morning. I simply cannot stop listening to it. Is it the cacophony of Meredith Metcalf ? Yes, it is, sure it is. Is it the simpleĀ i-love-you-so-much-i-see-you-everywhere lyrics? Yup. Is it the missing “only you” at the end of each verse? Absolutely. Is it the fact that another “only you” never stopped haunting me since 1997?
And, yes, the rest of the album is good too
In my eyes, only you / On my fingers, only you / In my shadows, only you/ In my dawning…
Bodies of Water - A Certain Feeling
Listen to ‘Only you’, this time not by Portishead!
Today I woke up with Londinium. I don’t know whether I dreamt about it or heard it through the thin walls that separate my bedroom from that of my neighbor’s (see what i did here? I made a funny!) but it stuck in my mind so bad that I had to find that old cd, undust it (it was in a box) and listen to it immediately.
In an era where the newborn and soon-to-die ‘trip-hop’ was the hype and many early 90’s bands tried to adopt the new Massive Attack signature sound, Archive managed to produce one album that did make a difference and still stands out . Surely their best work, their sound changed so much after that that they should have changed their name.
A typical first post, a typical Saturday morning drinking coffee, listening to Bibio, which I dont typically listen but hell, with songs like All the flowers or The palm of your wave it’s impossible not to.
