new Spiritualized "Sweet Heart Sweet Light"

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

new Spiritualized "Sweet Heart Sweet Light"

You can stream the whole album here that comes out 4/17. I think this is the best thing he's done since Let It Come Down. I thought that last two albums were kind of weak. I guess almost dying and then some chemo inspired Jason a bit.

That song he did with his daughter, "So Long You Pretty Thing" is a gorgeous.

thanks, a great interview, I listened to this again this morning. So may great things on this album but I am mesmerized by "So Long You Pretty Thing" still.

He's got the Spiritualized formula down pat. It seems like he has a checklist he has to hit for each album and other than bringing his daughter into the mix this time, mission accomplished.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Yes but it is a very good formula.

Don't we all pine away here for the Bunnymen to return to the formula of their glory days before the band just became a Mac solo vehicle?

I told you "Paul is perpetually offended day" could stretch into Friday. I'm out to ruin everybody's day.

You won't ruin my day with your negativity. I have the new Spiritualized to perk me up into questioning my existence with near death musings.

Is each song 10 minutes of reptitiveness that slightly builds?

I wish! There are no songs over 8 minutes however.

Love them.Just had a 79 hour trip to Stockholm via Denmark and got a copy in Copenhagen(not the best place btw..danes drive like fucking nutters,saw 3 head-on accidents that had happened in a 20 mile part of the journey!).The acoustic+choir show I saw in Leicester was the closest thing to a religious musical experience Ive come.
