Utility Fog

Sunday, 18th of January, 2009

Two albums came out yesterday in Oz that are both easy early contenders for album of the year - Animal Collective's Merriweather Post Pavilion and Andrew Bird's Noble Beast. The limited edition of the Andrew Bird is highly recommended as the packaging is beautiful and it comes with a whole second album of instrumentals, called Useless Creatures.
A variety of other old and slightly new tracks tonight for your delectation. Fairly shoegazey and ambient on the whole.
