Call your mother, even she's surprised that this is how you want to spend your nights indoors.

A quickie mix made the other night in a couple of hours. Lots of perky indie-pop/rock and "The" bands in this one. Individual downloads under the cut.

If the table colours are aren't right, then I blame my laptop. The screen is bright at the bottom and dark at the top so I have to take a guess at what shades people end up seeing.

lelymarques August 16 2008, 12:08:34 UTC

OMG I`M TAKING ALL! love your music taste!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

doublefourtime August 16 2008, 12:17:21 UTC

LOL, thank you. :D

Mostly it is Stuart and the other boys singing, but Isobel and -more recently- Sarah sing back-up and have a few verses they sing in contrast to the lads, and there are a few female-vocaled tracks around. The only one I can remember off the top of my head is "Asleep On A Sunbeam," it's one of my favourites.

But on the newest one -do you mean The Life Pursuit?- I don't think they're that noticeable. Oh, except perhaps in "Dress Up In You" when Sarah, I think, does backing.

doublefourtime August 16 2008, 14:25:31 UTC

No problem, I love TIIL so I'm really glad people are snagging them!

chargasm August 16 2008, 14:32:08 UTC

I really love them too, I have their self-titled album but I couldn't pass up a chance for another song!!
I liked your description of them! Lol at the iTunes review though -
"Suarez and Blackinton's voices twine together in warm, rich harmonies that conjure up turtlenecks, fireplaces and mellow beverages"
XD mellow huh

doublefourtime August 16 2008, 14:41:37 UTC

How cute, and turtlenecks, lol! As cheesy as it is I really have to agree with that review.
