Florence and The Machine - Ceremonials (2011)

Florence Welsch's second album is a piece of art. It has not the "hits on first hear" compilation format anymore, however, it is now more consistent and straightforwarded to the land of the inner of your head. I totally understand "The Machine" in it now. The music is more minimalistic, repetetive and urgent, it's a steam engine. There's more chorals than on "Lungs" and that is awesome - it makes every song a grower worth discovering. There's strong lyrics ("What The Water Gave Me", "Leave My Body"), Nr. 1 hit single ("Shake It Out"), trendy and Adele-friendly back-to-black-roots music ("Lover To Lover") and chorus you will be singing for yourself all day long ("Spectrum", "No Light, No Light"). Love it!

(Btw. A contest: Watch the attached video and tell me what Killers' song can you recognize in it...)



Bloody Autumn Lives or The Collage Dedicated To A Winter Sleep

music: baddies - do the job, hockey - mind chaos, the kings of convenience - declaration of dependence, editors - in this light and on this evening, the xx, i've heard a lot of samantha fox lately, but it's not my fault, however, my tendencies for last few weeks are to grab all the songs i've got in my music file, put them in one playlist, turn on the random mode and see/listen to what comes up. Then i try to guess, what is being played, it's an encouraging entertainment for a lonely person.

movies

i've been to the zoo, voluntarily.

wasn't at school most of the time

OUT OF MONEY

been to the library, glad to do all the decisions

nothing new around the band, no gigs, too cold for practice

in love, still, and she came, and stayed for some time in the city, where you feel sorry because of people who are unable to realize, that you do have reasons to be sad...

i don't feel like writing lately, but thanks for the cheering kick

this was supposed to be a cloud, clouds are very popular these days...

...eventually, you can't tag your own life.

Welcome To A New Academic Year

First, a prayer:

Memories:

Stop now, and dream about me:

Then look forward to what future hides...

London, Field Day & Junior Boys + Sporto

Poprvé v letadle, výbornej výlet. Víno, gaymovie, cider, galerie, field day, nákupy. What could be more? Díky Danet, jestli se dohrabu někdy do 5. ročníku zkusim erasmus...
Field Day nemá cenu se tu o tom rozepisovat, sen mnoha místních pozérů tipnul bych si... Horrors příšerný, Delphic opět výborný, Little Boots, The XX, Four Tet taky. Mrzí mě, že jsem díky časový kolizi s Mogwai nestih Mystery Jets a taky Santigold... Následoval punkovej návrat jak z filmu kterej by se moh jmenovat třeba Lost In London, ale dobrý...
Junior Boys byla akce dost podpořená stále populárnější vodkou s juicem (kdo by to byl řek). Na to, že jsme šli původně (konečně) na Sporto a od JB jsme neznali jedinej tón, tak to bylo dobrý a inteligentní. Jo a i na to česky zpívající Sporto se dá získat rychlá a intenzivní závislost... Midi Lidi už jsme nestihli, škoda.
