Sat, 4 April 2009  Spring makes a fucking colossal difference, doesn't it. People have been tripping around Edinburgh with a spring in their step for the last week, when the sun has come out and the air, whilst it may still be a little chilly, is notably warmer. It's gentler, I suppose, is the main difference. There's something of a release about Spring, as if all the uncomfortable restraint of Winter no longer has to be acknowledged. Does anyone remember that episode of Northern Exposure when the ice melted? Everyone went nuts, and the relieved exhalation we all express on the coming of the sunshine does remind me in many ways of a tame version of the exact same mania depicted in that episode of, erm, a serialised drama from the, er, mid ah nineties... anyone still reading? Never mind. In any case, this is a purposeless but
musically excellent podcast which is something of a lazy one, if I'm
honest. Frankly though, I think I deserve it after the effort put into
the Pictish Session, so fuck you if you have an issue with that. Tee
hee. There's a lot of new release stuff on here, a couple of bands
reviewed recently on the site, and a couple who are going to be
reviewed later this week. Next week I'll think of a theme. Promise. Toadcast #63 - Sprrring is Here! 01. The Soft Pack - Right & Wrong (01.33) Comments[0] |
