The Middle East - Blood

(This, actually, is a reblog from vivapedro via veronique)

One listen of “Blood” is all it took to get me highly excited about this Australian band (admittedly, I get excited easily).

The song is available as a free download on TheirSpace but I strongly recommend giving their entire 5-song EP a listen: if “Blood”, “The Darkest Side” and “Fool’s Gold” have a folky vibe, “Lonely” and “Beleriand” have more of a post-rock sound with the type of trippy instrumental build ups I particularly like. A truly wonderful selection of songs.

I’m browsing through my DVD collection in the hope I’ll find something there that I fancy watching, but no luck…My DVD library is so fucking boring…And why don’t I have Proof again? Zut alors, I really felt like watching that film tonight. Such a perfect little Australian indie flick.

Kenneth Branagh as Swedish inspector Kurt Wallander I saw the first episode of this 3-ep BBC crime drama and I really liked it. Branagh is excellent, as usual, but what makes this detective series stand out is its fresh and melancholic landscape: it’s set in small town Ystad, Sweden. It is quite fun, I have to say, to see an all-British cast play a bunch of Swedes. The intro theme is a pretty song called “Nostalgia” by Australian folk singer Emily Barker. You can listen to “Nostalgia” on HerSpace. I also recommend “This Is How It’s Meant To Be”. N.B: Emily Barker is the voice from The Low Country whose song Lord I Want An Exit I really like.
