Loving the new track Calgary. Ergo, I’m looking forward to the new album muchly. If it’s anywhere near the first one, it’ll still be brilliant 🙂

+1

Loved the last album.

Saw him live at eotr, nearly made me weep..great stuff

I like weepy low key droning as much as the next man but I thought the first album was mince!

Check out City & Colour too and Joseph Arthur and Scott Matthews 🙂

+ loads to it all

So he’s in then iDave? Yay!

I dont mind scott matthews, bit poppy but ok, live he was shockingly dull…

for Emma was amazing,…looking forward to the new one 🙂

Yeah, he was great at End of the Road. Cheers for the heads up re new track.

Yep. eotr performance was magical, best of any I’ve seen there I think. Googled him today randomly and so excited for new album in 2 weeks 🙂 Probably won’t see him on tour tho 🙁 There is a Brizzle date tho DD, think is sold out but might be tickets on scarlet mist etc.

Cheers Rich. Will check up!

Music to sleep to… Not for me

Thanks for letting us know all the same. 😀

God, I love Bon Iver. For Emma Forever is hammered on my Ipod.

See, I knew you would emsz 🙂

For me, the only worry is that the new album won’t have the back story of For Emma… It was the bleakness of For Emma’s backstory that brought one into the album. Calgary does sound different (bit of electricalonic geetar in there), but in avert good way.

It’s because we have outstanding taste. 🙂

I’m easy really (about the new album) my intro to him was the track “Woods” so i already thought it was pretty weird stuff, the fact that the rest of the album was so gorgeous was just an added bonus.

great sound for the musos in the house

I think he’s great. Blood Bank sold me. I like his Volcano Choir too.

Speaking of City & Colour i’m listening to Little Hell at the moment and its good.

1st heard his stuff on a ski video wil try and find it and post it!

Nice interview in the Sunday Times couple of Sundays ago

here you go and the skings not to bad!

Well?

Been out for a week or so, what d’you think?

Playing Holocene over and over, lush. 😀

A week? Thought it was only just out. Will be downloading this week. Hearing good things about it though 🙂

Theres a stream of the new album here

It’s quite nice. Not my usual sort of thing, but very listenable.

……it will not be my folky/guitary album of the year though, due to this:

£3.99 for the MP3 album over on amazon at the moment. Looking forward to a listen 🙂

Really liked the previous album, but was a bit concerned having read the review on the Times. Have just listened to the streaming and think it sounds good, which is a relief.

Deadly, itunes had for sale on the 17th OK, so only 4 days, nearly a week….

Sounds great on first listen. I like it.

EDIT: emsz, yeah, I guessed it had come out on Friday. I wait till I see it for sale in motorway services.
