Sounds of the summer
There are some great artists playing at Summer Sonic in Osaka this year, not least Sonic Youth and Aphex Twin. My number one recommendation however, has to be Phoenix. I saw them at Club Quattro in Shinsaibashi in 2006, and it was one of the best gigs I have ever seen. They come from Paris, although they sing in English, and their songs have a very distinctive sound: melodic, simple, and always memorable. Their new album “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix” has just been released. I prefer their previous album, “It’s Never Been Like That”, but the new one is definitely worth a listen, especially the single “Lisztomania”:

What a great reusorce this text is.
Ho ho, who wuloda thunk it, right?
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
I actually found your website through a blogroll on a different site, and have enjoyed perusing several of your articles. Though Sounds of the summer | imagine* has been my most lovedso far! I have added your rss and plan on coming back to see what you write about in the future.
