florence and the machine concert tonight! what a great show. one of the most incredible concerts I've been for, but also the least enjoyable in terms of comfort and surrounding concert-goers. would've been loads worse without the good company of my coursemate though!

it was in alexandra palace (zone 3-- far out, okay) for one, and the wait for the ( Read more... )

I went for the explosions in the sky concert tonight! it was really really good; I enjoyed myself a lot. absolutely no lyrics and no silence from start to end (which got a bit annoying sometimes when the segue music was particularly...dissonant but overall was alright and solved the problem of awkward transitions between songs I guess). the thing ( Read more... )

⇒ this band-- sea wolf-- makes me think of the winter of my second year at university. specifically its white water, white bloom album, I guess.

I listened to stanislaus some time after I came back from the two-week poland/prague trip with yan_min and ambientlight, wondering exactly which Stanislaus the song was referring to and whether it was the king whose church ( Read more... )

sssssso. I do this thing where, upon finding a song that I really enjoy listening to, I loop it until I tire of it (for the moment) and move on to other songs. my thirty most-played songs on itunes have hit hundreds of plays each...

yesterday I discovered this song I've been searching for for years. I think my brother knows this (whipermr5, are you reading ( Read more... )

⇒ saw mogwai live last night with ambientlight! it was bigger and more crowded and than I'd expected, but mogwai is pretty cool live, all the same.

mogwai is-- a band that I like very selectively. I really like their album mr beast, and happy music for happy people to a smaller extent, but most of their other stuff is too loud/noisy for my liking. their ( Read more... )

so! noah and the whale concert, tonight, at Koko with sneakergaze. I feel like at least a third of the songs they played tonight were from their upcoming album which hasn't been released yet-- but I might just be unfamiliar with their discography.

I am really tolerant (appreciative) of their songs, but their second album first day of spring gets a little ( Read more... )

give a little love was the song that stood out the most to me tonight, because I wasn't already aware of how awesome it was.

someway through the song aditi turned to me and said, I bet you love these lyrics, they're so you. and I was startled because I wasn't really sure what the lyrics were; I wasn't that familiar with the song nor was I paying ( Read more... )

another list!! idea stolen from jinli this time, here's my (twelve) favourite songs of infatuation. half the songs from the previous list applied here too, but I decided not to repeat songs :( I...have icons for two out of these twelve songs.
