This weeks records

Foo Fighters - Greatest Hits

Possibly a pointless purchase on my behalf, but being a Dave Grohl fanboy I thought I would treat it more like a collector's item. Besides the new tracks "Wheels" and "Word Forward" are decent enough as well. Bring on Them Crooked Vultures album in 8 days!!



Karnivool - Sound Awake

This by far is THE definition of fucking awesome! It ticks all the boxes in what I'm looking for in music. It's diverse, it's progressive and it has its heavy moments. Yet another great export from Australia.



Horse The Band - Desperate Living

Oh the joys of trips to London. As part of our exhibition trip, we were treated to a mini tour of London which led us to a very underground part bombarded with record stores. Best still there were several cheap CDS on offer. This was by far my prize purchase of the day. Having only been out for a month, I was thrilled to find it for £3. As for the music, it's what Horse do. Nintendocore FTW!!!



Be Your Own Pet - Get Awkward

Part of the reason for me getting this was due to reading one of the blogs I follow (I put on my worried shoes a.k.a Joel Paynter) explaining about the release of ex-BYOP vocalist Jemina Pearl releasing a solo record. It then reminded me how good the band were and seeing as how I saw their final album "Get Awkward" for £3, who could say no??



Test Icicles - For Screening Purposes Only

Despite being a very short lived band, they sure made a hella racket for just one album. In conjunction with this purchase, I was told that former member Dev Hynes a.k.a Lightspeed Champion was walking round the same street we were exploring. Oh how proud he would felt to know that people are still buying his records.



The Boxer Rebellion - Exits

And the winner for the lowest price purchase goes to said album. Having bought their latest album only last week I was thrilled to find this in another record store after our tour had concluded. It definitely is my most prefered record from the band especially at £1.



Cooper Temple Clause - See This Through And Leave

So our record searching concluded of all places at HMV. But this HMV is definitely one of the best I've come across in London and I was surpised to find Cooper Temple Clause's first record here as I was pretty sure this was out of print. But for £9, it was definitely worth it considering this is their best album by a long shot.
