Ok, squeezing another post in before the stroke of midnight. You know this is kinda fun, creating other musical beings with like minds...I mean it will be if anyone ever sees this blog! So this time I'll lay another of my current favorite bands in existence. They are from England and their album "Measure" just blew my mind. It was one of those like Jellyfish's Spilt Milk and Carpark North's Lost that just took over my life for a long while. I had to hear it AT LEAST once a day for months on end. They are called Field Music. Here is a taste:

There stuff isn't all quite so poppy. Well at least it isn't all as instantly accessible as this track, but it's so musically deep and multi-layered that it's worth the effort to let it sink in. Once it does, it will get its hooks in ya DEEP!

On a side note, I saw these guys put on a magical show at a tiny little bar in Kansas City. It was a miracle that they were doing a US tour in the first place, considering that they have a small but loyal following in the States. I hung out with Peter and we had some great conversation too.

The most magical part of the night, however, is that the night I saw this show, I was with my best friend/sister Britta



It was the last night I was ever with her. She tragically died two nights later of sudden heart failure in her sleep. I will cherish that night above almost all others in my life. She was an amazing person, a phenomenal singer, and a huge music fan in her own right. Consequently, I introduced her to Field Music that same night and she loved them.

Anyhow, they have a new album since Measure that I havent given enough of a chance to fairly review, but they are incredible and a worthy addition to any music fan's consciousness.
