What are you listening to ?

Been getting right in to these lately. 
 

 

although it has to be said that your man on guitar definitely models himself on Nigel Tufnel.

Aye these are good. I haven't listened to loads of their stuff, but I've liked the vast majority of what I have listened to.

I think they’re more of a “have a little dip now and then” band than one you’d listen to a whole album in one go. 
 

Having said that, A La Sala, their 2024 album is excellent. 
 

( Also, re. The Nigel Tufnel comment I made about the lad noodling on guitar, turns out him and the lass both wear wigs when performing ).

I'll fire that one up now ta.

May Ninth is a standout track for me.

Their stuff with Leon Bridges is the only stuff of theirs I’ve really enjoyed IIRC. And that’s because he’s such a fantastic vocalist. I find a lot of their music doesn’t linger in the memory for very long

Aye, fine for a dip or two. 
 

If I went to one their concerts I could see them getting right on my tits before the end, tbh. 
 

I wonder if Nigel had the same guitar tech as Hermanos Gutierrez, because he sounds very similar? 
 

 

I do like the “distant” sounding vocals of the lass mind.
