Just purchased the new Bloc Party album from Woolworths with the help of some old vouchers that my brother found. It was only £10.99 anyway but I got it for £7.99..cashback! I attempted to get the version with the Ltd. Edition DVD but they'd ran out, what I hate about woolworths is that they never predict demand at all!! But I would really like the DVD version so may just give the version I bought today to Alun as he's grown accustomed to them. We may be going to Chester sometime this week anyway to help him find a few recruitment agencies as he's really low on dough at the moment.
The production on the album is excellent, particularly on tracks previously seen on the EP, Paul Epworth's work on tracks such as 'She's Hearing Voices' and 'Banquet' are magnificent. Matt Tong's already brilliant drumming is enhanced ten fold with Epworth twiddling the knobs. I'm extremely proud of having seen this band in Wrexham, Piccadilly Records and again on the recent NME awards tour. I treasure my signed Helicopter single and single/tour promo poster which hangs proudly on my 'Music Room' wall. It has now been christened the music room as the huge desk is being moved from out of there so it wuill just consist of a drumkit, 2 basses, acoustic guitar and a mini-amp. Soon I shall be adding a keyboard, a bass rig and a cheap electric guitar to that list as I'm planning to seriously learn quite a few instruments and hopefully get to the bottom of the creativity that I know I hold.
SO....bring on the job because I need the money for my other plans!
EDIT: I can't get MSN messenger to work, it hasn't worked all weekend. It says I may not have internet connectivity! Anybody else experiencing problems signing in?
