EARPLUGS TO THE READY!

I'm super excited. This week's gigging involves the mighty Mogwai, with Philly drone monsters Bardo Pond. Afore that, it's over to the Spitz in my old East London stomping ground for the sublime purveyors of that special breed of Canadian space jazz/rock, Do Make Say Think. Their latest wee disky, winter hymn country hymn secret hymn has been doing the turns on my MD player this last week or so. Hymn is DMST's most assured effort to date mixing the usual elements of guitar loops, intricate beats and interlocking lines. It scores high in the pastoral almost ambient feel and in the subtle yet complex arrangement of elements and instrumentation. This is instrumental rock at its most uplifting.

Eh?
