Arstidir (see above for indigenous spelling), Hvel -- this is superb!  Proggy acoustic -- obviously not native English speakers, but it gives it a quaintness that I quite like.  The musicianship and production values are fantastic.  RIYL mellower Sigur Ros, acoustic Alan Parsons Project.  Going to have to pick up the vinyl of this, I think.

Will definitely check that out Dusty.....

 

As for me: after listening to Carly Dow, Iain's friend, and liking that....it put me in the mood for the lovely Tift Merritt.  Tambourine gracing my ears now.

Not quite on topic, but I used to chuckle when hearing Catherine Wheel, because the singer sounded like a melodic (Christopher Lloyd's "Taxi" character) Jim Ignatauski (sp?) to me  :laugh:

 

And, same with Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins....reminds me of an adult Cartman!

I've been listening to this all day, and I hear something different every time I listen to it -- now it's neo-folk/neo-classical, and I don't hear any Sigur Ros, so ... I don't know what to tell you -- here is a link so you can stream it and decide for yourself, but it's really quite nice, that's about all I can say consistently:

 

linkydink.

 

I already ordered the vinyl.

Claire is so proud that she saw Einstürzende Neubauten at a small club in SF in the 80s.  It never fails to quiet hipper than thou music heads.

 

I see your noisy, and raise you big hair!

I saw them on the Perpetuum Mobile tour, so I've got that going for me.  I also saw Triumph on the Progressions of Power tour.  A friend of mine took a photo that ended up in one of their albums later (in mid-pyrotechnics), not sure if it was Allied Forces, though.

 

Me:  Sparkle in the Rain, super deluxe edition on Tidal.

Back to female vox for me....and wondering why I don't listen to this lady more often!  Happy Rhodes, Rhode Songs.....

Hooray for The Magic Power and Spirit of Radio in the 80's Great White North! Rock on, Al! Did you feel young, wild and free?

 

You bet I do, Dr. John!  Keeping that feeling alive and silly in 24/192:
