leviramsey Posted March 17, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted March 17, 2010 Another for MrWeedMcGrass: Our first stop is in Bogota To check Colombian fields The natives smile and pass along A sample of their yield Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams Golden Acapulco nights Then Morocco and the East Fly by morning light We're on the train to Bangkok Aboard the Thailand Express We'll hit the stops along the way We only stop for the best Wreathed in smoke in Lebanon We burn the midnight oil The fragrance of Afghanistan Rewards a long day's toil Pulling into Kathmandu As smoke rings fill the air Perfumed by a Nepal night The Express gets you there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted March 17, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted March 17, 2010 Gil Scott Heron - New York is killing me Good album isn't it Si? It's an interesting journey that's for sure. I particularly like how the soundscapes used underpin his vocal style, very good indeed. I'm a big fan. This got recommended on Radiobutt, suggesting it might be the first step on a new road for the indie/alternative scene to go down after a couple of years stuck in a rut of similarity. I really couldn't get on with it, despite wanting to desperately. Like Designer1 I liked some of the soundscapes (best word for them I think, nice one) but the vocal style does it for me. Just don't appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really see it as that sort of thing at all. Production-wise it is fundamentally an electronic album, and has a classic folk feel to it, but it certainly isn't what I would describe as 'indie'.

Aye I know it's fundamentally different, I think they were saying that this album might be one that could set off a new scene or at least drive some originality into the already existing ones. because, frankly, all that generic "indie" stuff is getting boring, or, as it's fashionable to say in 2k10, "derivative". Well, this album is a great place to start moving some other direction. "I'm New Here" deserves your attention on three instances. First, If you've grown tired of "indie" rock (which seems to have ceased to exist, any way) the album is as fresh the morning dew without putting too much strain on your comprehension skills either. Second, it doesn't steal your time: 28 minutes and you are free to go. Last, "I'm new here" is just dark enough for your black hipster alienated soul."
