Some quick sloppy 'reviews'...



RJD2 - Since We Last Spoke

Glad I ignored all the 'ho-hum' reviews, this is great - like Deadringer (his first album) it rocks in all the right places, and knows when to get down with some sweet sweet soul music - and, he's also obviously been listening to 80's synth-pop. Let me make this clear now: this is a good thing!



Two Lone Swordsmen - From The Double Gone Chapel

Fantastically sleazy album: it's all dirty bass, punk-rock drums, and Andrew Weatherall's slightly alarming vocals. Best stuff he's done since the Sabres of Paradise's Haunted Dancehall.... actually, this might even be better.



Curve - The Way of Curve

This is what I like to think of as a utility disc, I've already got most of the songs on offer here - but it's good to have them all in the same place, and there are a few extra rarities on the second disc. In case you have never heard of Curve, think of the band Garbage - basically Garbage stole every single one of there ideas from Curve. So if you like Garbage, you'll be comfortable with this
