Th...Dennis, have you ever seen the Lucksmiths live? That was what convinced me of their genuine brilliance. I thought they were only OK before I first saw them live in 2003. <BR/><BR/>Maybe because they are so consistent and their sound can be kind of quiet, they are not a band to reach out and grab you. But they write a lot of really lyrically meaningful songs with tender sounds. <BR/><BR/>However, I don't think First Frost would be the album to win you over about them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-908097480376132531.post-50220405220071634202009-01-17T08:03:00.000+00:002009-01-17T08:03:00.000+00:00Gah.

But they are under rehabilitation as we speak.<BR/><BR/>I don't think it's the least immediate album they've done, but that's sort of why I like it. Also, it's a real winter album. Or a night in alone album, I think.

I have listened to it just once or twice since getting it, what, a month or two ago? It sounded quite dull to me and I haven't given it another listen since. I think I should do now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
