Air - Pocket Symphony

[flammableBen]

I only found out about their new-ish album a few weeks ago, when after following some links found out that NME slated it and so figured that it might be quite good. Arty pop legend Jarvis Cocker is involved on a few tracks to, so I downloaded it and listened to it whilst passing out, a little bit drunk.

Remembered I had it tonight and thought I'd listen whilst posting loads of shit on here. I quite like it. Only been half listening, but there hasn't really been any stand out tracks so far. Although, apart from some exceptions I never really notice them on a first listen of an album.

It seems a bit like Air doing an Air chill out by yourself album. Which is pretty much Air anyway. It's no Moon Safari but I'm enjoying it.

I feel like I've written a music review and should give it a rating out an arbitrary number of stars. With my like of prime numbers I'm going to give it 17/23

it's a bit prog, isn't it?

still, that's fine by me.

talkie walkie, their previous album was nice. cherry blossom girl is very blissful.

To be honest Talkie Walkie passed me by a bit. I've got it somewhere I think but never really given it a proper listen. New one seemed to come out even more invisibly than that though.

Go back to Moon Safari - now that's a great album.

I love Moon Safari, I'd listen to it now but I'm nearly at the end of listening to Stephen Fry read Harry Potter Book 5. I know what happens but haven't read it for ages so it's still exciting.
