As I am still stuck in my musical past, Deerhunter are one of the few up-to-date bands that I am in to.

Brandon Cox is great as either a member of Atlas Sound or Deehunter.

I much prefered it when Nick Cave started writing with guitar again instead of piano. His albums immediately became harder.

Fordlândia is a now-abandoned, prefabricated industrial town established in the Amazon Rainforest in 1928 by American industrialist Henry Ford to secure a source of cultivated rubber for the automobile manufacturing operations of the Ford Motor Company in the United States. Ford had negotiated a deal with the Brazilian government granting his newly formed Companhia Industrial do Brasil a concession of 10,000 km² of land on the banks of the Rio Tapajós near the city of Santarém, Brazil, in exchange for a 9% interest in the profits generated. The project was ultimately a total failure. Despite repeated invitations from residents and periodic promises to do so, Henry Ford never actually visited his ill-fated jungle city. This album is Johannsson's attempt to write music about this event.

Even an aging Nightingales can create work of more worth than bands half their age.

When I first heard a track from this album on Marc Riley's show, I thought it was Leonard Cohen. But it wasn't. This album has a great feel to it and superb picture on the cover.

"I wrote my name on a banana peel, There should always be a meal with my name on it." Who couldn't love a band with lyrics like that. David Tatterall is a fantastic guitarist. Go to see them live.

This is the last album he has made. Come on Robert, if you still have it in you, get something else released.

This is another band that my son convinced me to listen to. This is a great album and has a lot in common with Sparks.
