"lol, make a song as heavy and powerful as The Last One and I'll buy all your records twice" Reply
"2018 a new LP-version entered the market with 8! bonus tracks. I promise you it's well spent money on Tidersticks epicentre, their absolute peak. Curtains is more magic than than most souls can handle. It's distilled raw beauty." Reply

"Music critics started calling this sort of music "math rock" because they got tired of having to use terms like "angular," "abrasive," "aggressive," "rhythmically complex," "sharp-edged," "start-stop," and "spiky" all the time.

"Oasis-like 90's indie rock/Britpop - and an album I'm more likely to listen to now that any Oasis album apart from Definitely Maybe...North Country Boy, Tellin' Stories and One To Another are particularly good." Reply
