Boring band in picking my favourite band shocker!
sweet. sort of.
holy christ.
That's two of my fairly limited 10/10 ratings.
bit surprised
by the inclusion of Mono at this fest. I thought EITS would only invite contrasting bands. not that I mind of course, as I missed Mono tour with Jesu.
This line up is shaping up reasonably well.
i finally get to see mono!
yessssss
The Drift are really good too
ceiling sky's a beautiful record, kind of slow-burning sleepy jazz jams. lots of trumpet and lazy bass. nice.
looking forward to this festival
Is it just me...
or does Jens Lenkman sound an awful lot like the Magnetic Fields? I like it but yikes.
yes
he does I agree and its a good thing yes
