I've got to say that after 2-3 plays, I am seriously impressed. Sounds like Sigur Ros, but with played on almost cheesy synths. And all this for for a fiver from HMV!! Another album I've been enjoying is Caribou's The Milk Of Human Kindness, particualrly the more Neu-like moments. I got this one when I finally ordered Githead's Profile. I'll report back more fully at a later stage, but unlike last years mini-album, it hasn't blown me away. Yet, at least!
