    To hand over all of your things and start over new
    While we were out hunting for food
    Our house was being robbed
    I caught an apple and she caught a fox
    So I caught a rabbit and she caught an ox
    So upon our return we found everything gone
    Which for us was no loss
    And we started over with a rabbit and an ox


    Yes. Are you?

    I don't really know their music, but I recognized your moniker from their album title.

    Vibrations? Who said anything about vibrations?
    The creepy quotient is on the rise.

    Milake released one of the best albums of the year in 2006, anybody brought up on early to mid seventies FM (is that a dirty word) rock will love the album. A new release is due this year apparently, but we'll see.

    Cheers

    You said you were getting a " creepy vibe". I thought maybe you were expressing surprise by this sensation, but perhaps it was merely informational. Sorry if I assumed you wanted assistance.

    Perhaps you'd like, Tindersticks new album, The Hungry Saw.

    Do you have any of their earlier albums?

    Yes, there is definitely a mid-seventies AOR "vibe" to their music. i liken them to early Fleetwood Mac, specifically the Bob Welch era, which i prefer, before Lindsey Buckingham spoiled things.

    Hey Mike, good to see you around here. Now that you're saying that, I'm vaguely recalling that I have heard them...possibly the reason that the name Van Occupanther sounded so familiar. I'll have to investigate. Cheers!

    No just that one, I've heard some samples of Bamnan and Silvercork and it was on my wishlist for a while but kind of dropped of. A lot of people liken them to Grandaddy (I'm a big fan) and Flaming Lips (who I'm ok with) now I can hear the similarities on Bamnan but on Van Occupanther they have a different sound again which is more to my taste.

    I'm assuming you have some other stuff by them, what's your take on their earlier work?

    Cheers
    Mike
