I've been neglecting my last.fm journal, I've not been to a gig in a while, apart from seeing my friend's band, Transfer Audio, play regularly around Glasgow. I start a new job on the 6th of October, so with a little more cash coming in I'll be keeping an eye out for gig's I'd be interested in.

I have as ever been listening to as much new music as I can get my hands on. Ratatat have taken me by storm, indescribable pleasure from the sounds these guys make. Flashbacks to an electronic youth mesmerized by computers games and music. Loving it! :) Also been listening to Electrelane, saddened to hear they are on an indefinite hiatus, because what I'm hearing now is talent. Hope to hear more from them in the future in other projects maybe. Also liked the new Bloc Party album, Intimacy, I wasn't keen on their previous album, A Weekend In The City, but this new one is sounding better to my ears.

Eagles of Death Metal, King Crimson, Chris Cornell, Electric Six, Deerhoof, Cat Power, The Fiery Furnaces and The Walkmen are all supposed to have new releases out in the next month or two. So I will be hunting them down and giving them a listen.
