Hi Frank:

I saw Tindersticks’s concert last night in Guimarães (Portugal) – they seem to keep coming here almost every year.
Seems to me that the new album’s are better heard live than at home, and Stuart’s voice is at its best.
Don’t miss them if they pass around – you would be regreting it for the rest of your life…

I love the Whirlpool. Not as keen on this but it is ok

A little dancey – but not the “throw away” pop of, for example, The Boo Radleys post-shoegaze reboot. A different sound, more madchester, I guess. Clearly not as good as Whirlpool, but actually pretty cool for what it was.

The general tone of Blood Music:

You can actually order the new Tindersticks from http://www.fallingdownamountain.com/ way ahead of release date.

Lots of different format options. The CD/LP versions will also give you immediate access to download 320kbps MP3s of the album.

Great news about Frightened Rabbit, looking forward to that one! Let’s hope nothing stands in your way this time, and that FR can erase any association with last year’s events. Good for them, too, that they’ve moved up to a bigger venue (the Horseshoe was bursting at the seams last time). And from the evidence in the photo, looks like Scott Hutchinson plans to keep wearing his 2009 shirt this year.

I have Whirlpool and this weekend confirmed that I still like Whirlpool… used to have a copy of Blood Music but it didn’t survive a CD collection cull in the distant past, but I don’t remember a damned thing about it. kind of want to hear it again – I think it was dancey?

Chapterhouse are actually among my favourite of the first-wave shoegazers, ironically enough… though the second album was good, Whirlpool (and all associated singles – about another album’s worth of material) is downright GORGEOUS.

I also think it hasn’t hurt them that Ulrich Schnauss has been a big fan of theirs and had Sherrif guest on his Chapterhouse cover for the “Never Lose That Feeling” series.

My 2¢ on the source of this… [smirk]
