http://drownedinsound.com/articles/3689012 Nice article here. Still haven't found it! I like the video!!! It has a cheap charm about it, it is the one from the first release so it probably was cheap LOL.

:( damn, I just can't find this anywhere :angry:

ouY55Vy8pbU Phil Campbell - who's album I have been enjoying - is releasing a re-worked version of 'No Love Song' and it's bloody brilliant! The video makes me wish that summer could really be like that instead of p***ing it down! (Also look out for the cute lady on about 2 minutes. Using the power of google I've found out who she is... can you? ^_^ )

I'll do a few searches myself. Emmy The Great did do backing on the original release of this song - Five Years Time - last September: http://www.contactmusic.com/new/home.nsf/w...ewhalex12x09x07 I do remember the song being mentioned in a blog some time ago, which is why I was surprised that it had only just been released, but it would seem this is the second time around for the song.

are you allowed to post links here to torrents?? I would love to join the 'I've listened to the album and am loving it' crowd!! PS I thought Emmy The Great did backing?

I didn't think the album was out yet....

I heard this song AGES ago and really liked it then and was sure it would make a great summer tune so I am was very happy when they said it would be released now. Anybody seen them live? They did the Camden Crawl but I missed them :angry:

Just wanted to add a quick note as I managed to see Phil Campbell live last week. I was very impressed, the performance was great - he was solo - full of emotion and the delivery of the songs was first class. BTW did anybody see him TV to do with this Independents Day http://www.independentsday08.com, apparently he was playing with Feeder and the Infadels, I would have like to have seen that.

ha ha... I was wondering whether to use Blunt... but you know what I mean. ^_^

She is like a female James Blunt but with the Spektor indie about her. I think it's great stuff.

OK. Now that I have had the album for a while I thought I would write a small review for you. Overall I really like this album ^_^. For people who like acoustic guitars, well structured songs, thought out lyrics and a slightly 'edgey voice' you should give this album a listen. The first 2 ('No Love Songs', 'Cold Engines') tracks are both strong tracks, then it slows right down for 3 (Sweet Sister) then the pace is nicely restored with 'Maps'. (ok I will stop with the links it'll take too long - lol!). The middle of the album sees 2 slow songs, which I am not so in to. 'Should Have Stayed at Home' is the track I would be most likely to skip, too middle of the road!! 'Same Old' funks it's up just a little bit, followed by my two favourite tracks, 'Joy' and 'Hey Mama', the later being a great one to 'acoustic ROCK' to! The final track is a piano and strings number that you sense has some meaning to it, a nice way to finish the album. I really like the blends of country, folk and rock that this album has. Phil Campbell's voice is great, not too quickly clean to be a wet blanket and not too husky to sound like Rod Stewart (not that there is anything wrong with him!). Overall I would say a solid 7.5 / 10. I would love to see more tracks like Hey Mama on the next album :yahoo: Anybody else got it?

Just watch the video... it's full of totally naked people! :yahoo: :dance: It's a real feel good tune :dance:

Cool! The single is pretty up beat and seems way more vocal than a lot of their other stuff. Really like it though, and very kindly they are letting you download it for free on their website! Agree about the art work though.

LOL!! Bland people can still have talent? ;) Interesting reading the review, clearly a big fan! I just read a BBC review saying he is "like James Blunt with some grit", which ties in with the bland comment! However I would say his album (that I have been giving a listen) is a good mixture of acoustic, country, folk and even riff based tracks. A good one for lazy summer days :-) http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/release/zc25/

It is a cool video.

Cliff and a million other worth while artist! Radio playlist are all made up by records label gimps, agents and radio pluggers representing artist who have the money behind them. It's about what THEY want you to hear, not what YOU want to hear.

I had never heard of him before seeing him on Jools Holland, but he was signed 10 years ago to EMI. Did he release an album with them? Would you recommend to see him live?

Hey! Yes I have also just got the album having seen him on Jools, I really like it a nice one to listen to on your ipod in the park. You may like to see this Tiscali Showcase: http://www.tiscali.co.uk/music/showcase/phil_campbell.html Also I really like this acoustic version of Cold Engines recorded for Jools Holland: http://www.bbc.co.uk/later/shows/series32/...ll_coldengines/ Him and Johnny Flynn are my recent 'discoveries'... both are cracking!

I first heard of her on the now sadly gone BBC 'collective' site. She did a session for then and I loved Sadie, what a great song. BBC LINK Oh and Smog & Newsom on youtube:

but how can a rock album not have Hendrix on, has the world gone crazy?!

No Hendrix track?

NME $h!te!

Here, here... otherwise there will be endless threads with no replies and just 'posters'. Keep it cool :-)

sounds great, i really like this band. This video was in a web feed I subscribe to: jRX5kH6IrkY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRX5kH6IrkY " target="_blank"> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRX5kH6IrkY and straight away I like them! :w00t:

So can new music / artists be discussed? I personally like to find new music based on music I like and what other people may recommend.
