Other Lives

Loving all the Other Lives love

I'm glad they're touring again here soon, although I wish they weren't playing SBE in London...I hate that place, sound is always so awful. I was disappointed that they didn't have time to play anything off their first album. I love Tamer Animals, but the first album still has the edge for me. I wanted to hear Black Tables at least and Paper Cities.

Gonna try and go to that - assuming it doesn't sell out before I can pin down a babysitter!

[riverlodge]

have finally found a review that mentions something that has been bugging me for a while, that there is some good old ennio morricone in the tamer animals soundscape: http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/vq9p

this also isn't a bad review, managing to avoid the ubiquitous radiohead/coldplay comparison: http://www.fakeplastictunes.com/2011/09/other-lives-tamer-animals-review_07.html

support band are "another's blood" and at least look worth a listen.

Tamer Animals well worth the money (partic the title track) though still wouldn't have missed the Unthanks for them - will catch them in Nottm.

ps yeah, okay, its friday night and i'm clearly not out so whats your point?

[killyourtv]

Great show in Nottingham to a sparse crowd - not sure how the economics work for US bands. Will catch the St Giles in Nov.

Anyone know anything about the EP they were selling but I forgot to buy ?

[riverlodge]

crowd made more sparse by me,mrs RL (who was unwell) and two friends not being able to go

glad you enjoyed!

Thought you might all like to know that Other Lives have done a Daytrotter session. Haven't listened yet, so don't know how good it is. But these things are usually pretty spot on.
