Camera Obscura

I'm in love. With this band.

Find and listen to the song 'Let's get out of this country'. It makes me ache.

This was one of those times where I heard this song on the radio and I had to stop in my tracks and listen to it. Now I feel all wishy washy inside as I listen to it for the thirtieth time.

My housemates love this band, I can't get into them though, I'll give them another chance some time though

Hmm.. seems interesting. Think she could do with a few singing lessons, tidy up some very rough edges to her singing that probably only irritate other singers like me.

Can't say I like them as much as B&S.

I was actually at Summer Sundae. They played, but at that time I didn't even know they existed. B&S played too, but I'm not much of a fan.

Can't agree with the post that her singing is substandard. I really like her voice. I mean, it's indie, not opera, and she does seem to be doing quite well for herself.

I've heard of them, my favourite song is 'Lloyd, I'm Ready to be heartbroken'. The band is relatively obscure, I found them on E-Music.

Ben, are you familiar with Lloyd Cole? Just wondered if you understood the reference.

Just got Bluest hi-fi in the post today. Really enjoying that and their newest one.

Loved 'Underachievers please try harder', didn't get quite so much out of their latest album. Although there's no denying 'Lloyd, I'm ready to be heartbroken' is a cracking single.
