Gomez "How We Operate"

Damn shame. This is such a great album. Gonna sound beautiful this summer with the sun shining down.

Now you go.

gomez is pretty consistent with his solid output. never a contended for best-of-year, but always a good shot at top 20 of the year.

do the islands count here? white rose movement? sparks?

I'm sure there are millions of albums that I'm currently ignoring.

And I will continue to do so, especially with Gomez.

Apart from that Gomez album, the only one that came to mind was that Starsailor album On the Outside which seemed to be barely acknowledged in North America. It's on '05 album in the UK but just got a domestic release here.

I was just thinking today how little attention has been paid to the new Placebo album. I haven't listened to it so the apathy may be warranted.

BBC Wrote:
Within seconds, slippery turntable chatter and tight horn section twists announce how much Barcelona collective Ojos De Brujo have developed their signature sound even further, sharply arranging the tumble of cross-cultural elements that all fall within the bounds of what must still be called flamenco.

Emphatic acoustic guitar strumming, fast handclaps and booming cajon (a percussive sitting-box) still form the music's heart. But it's a small step from the staccato rush of Marina's traditionally-derived vocals to the accelerated couplet-gush of guest rapper Faada Freddy, from Senegal's Daara J.

Even as hip hop, reggae, Indian pop and even heavy metal grinding make their mark, flamenco's wellspring is never diluted. Instead, its fluids are thickened, and the music courses forward, superbly modernised and sleekly integrated with these variegated intruders.


The Observer Wrote:
The leaders of Barca's neo-flamenco clan, Ojos De Brujo (Wizard's Eyes) deliver an eclectically brilliant gypsy stew that blends flavours from flamenco, salsa, jazz, tango, Hindi funk, rap and rock. Augmenting the anarchic eight- piece are musical cousins from Cuba (piano and très guitar), India (Asian Dub Foundation's Cyber on dhol drums) and Senegal (Daara J rapper Faada Freddy). Add flamenco singer Martirio, who raises passions almost unbearably on 'Tanguillos Marineros', and you have an irresistible new recording.

Don't let Darrin hear you mention Starsailor. He may haunt you from the Scottish Highlands.

that gomez ablum is pretty good. not their best stuff. and i think i've seen it mentioned on the board...at least in the usual suspects NP's....

a couple that i'm sure will go by ignored, but that shouldn't are:

juana molina - son

and

shearwater - palo santo

they both just recently came out, so maybe they'll get noticed by some shortly....

That Shearwater is minus Will Sheff (Okkervil River) though, only John Meiburg on this one. I havent spun it yet, but may do so tonite.

I think that last year, this disc was ignored. Brilliant pop in the Magic Numbers vein, but superior. Great vocals and harmonies.

[img][650:650]http://www.subpop.com/mediakit/FruitBats_coverSPELLBONES.jpg[/img]

This year, I guess it would be this one. Im beginning to think its Will Johnsons/Centro-matics best work yet.
