Quirky indie rock followed by sensitive fragile acoustic numbers. It's pretty impressive to be honest.

Thanks for offering this up.

Not on Spotify, Intense, disquieting, not relaxing and disjointed.

It's quite brilliant.

Not sure if I'll ever listen again as it drained me.

Sounds like an album of hits from Eurovision.

"And next up is Lindsey Stirling singing her entry"

Not to say it's bad, but there's a fine line between 'original' music and manufactured music.

Well this is different.

Odd lyrics about bizarre events and very low key it has a real charm.

This is quite powerful stuff- the backing music is what makes it for me. It really complements the rapping.

Really good.

Oh boy I wasn't expecting this!

Technically accomplished with a lyrical sensitivity.

Liking the trumpet too. Classy.

I know there are a lot of albums by these guys on both list but they are all pretty good if you like their laid back lyricism and offkey music.

Hard to know what was coming next!

Tracks that differed in quality and length and through it all was a sense of freedom and experimentation.

I have heard of this band before and whilst there are other bands that came before (Gong, Neu!, CAN, ThrobbingG and Mothers and many more) that's not to say there's room for another.

This deserves a place here alongside all the well engineered and 'safe' records made before and since

Kinda like a Chilean Air? Well maybe.....I'm not sure of their intent. Ironic or serious?

Some laid back catchy pleasant tunes. Upbeat on a Summer day.

It's kinda upbeat and pleasant indie rock. The tone is upbeat too and I particularly like the drums played by hand.

Not as good as I was hoping. There is remnants from Larks Tongue but it really does sound like shades of Talking Heads (which is flattering but not exactly what I wanted).

The musicality is top notch as you'd expect. Fripp's guitar is amazing and the vocals distinctive.

Overall very good but not quite as good as I wanted.

As has already been said by others this is a great mix of innocent girlies with shocking lyrics and quirky music and random indie band feel.

It really works

Whoah, I remember this one. Very 80s and good to listen back to.

I always get their 'sound' intermingled with Inxs (again it's an 80s thing).

This is a good album.

It's not what I expected- seemingly disjointed and random but engaging. It's ODD and I mean that in a good way.

Certainly not derivative or drab. It's interesting to see what direction they are going track by track.

This is a real find- very atmospheric and intruiging.

A good album to put forward. I need to listen to them more I think for them to gel.

Another one I thought was on the original list (it's been over 4 years since I started).

This is intelligent dark and compelling

No bad but it just left me indifferent. Maybe I've just listened to too many bands that sound exactly the same.

I like this band via Yoshimi and this is the oddest thing i've come across.

Rather than listen to the mixes of all 4 I played each track, 1,2,3,4 and it was an odd experience since a lot of them were silent for a while before kicking in on a sparce backing track, like a slice of the whole cake.

It's similar to listening to a stereo record on one speaker.

The overall effect is quite surreal and I liked it.

What a treat this was this morning. I know there are a few Daft albums in both charts but that's because they are so good!

Or maybe they were clever in spacing their hits out?

Hot Dang! What is is with you clued-in people? This is so up my street and lifted me up this morning.

It's wonderfully diverse with lots of interesting noises.

I loved it.
