So, i thought i'd start a new featurette deely tonight - album love! My cd collection is constantly growing, but of course there are always those that stand out. And i thought it's time i go through and recognise the wonderfulness of some of these.
To start with, i had to pick Decadence. I only bought it last week which would usually refrain it from being loved to such an extent, but, i just, i can't find fault with this cd!

Beating Heart Baby had me hooked last week, and was more or less the reason i bought this album. Now, i only had time to listen to this cd all through a single time before i had to go to work, and i expected Beating Heart Baby to still be ringing in my ears. How wrong i was! "Hip hip hooray you're our saving grace, here's to you and your poker face" just kept going through my mind. It doesn't exactly seem that exciting, but my word is it addictive! I just love HEARING it, heh, which, is what this album really does for me. It's not just awesome lyrics, it's not just great tunes, it's the lead singers fantastic voice! I love him already and will muchly be looking into his other projects.

This album really has a gorgeous flow to it. Theres some track changes where you cant at first even be sure the song has switched. It's beautiful, very reminiscient of some of my favourite garage compilation albums, but just done SO much better! It has a very 'albumy' feel to it. There's no random disjointed stuff, it's all got the same energy, the same passion, the same downright Rockin-ness, heh. If you like one song i'm pretty sure you'll like the rest, but, oddly i also would argue against it being too same-y? The songs are along similar lines but all have very unique feelings.
"Your body's a weapon, and you're afraid it could get out, a friend of the devil, and you're afraid it could get out"
Head Automatica have a new album coming out this year, although not until around summer time by the looks of it, but hopefully it will be rocking. You can get a demo of one of the new tracks from their unofficial fan site, and if you missed Beating Heart Baby from last week, you can get that lovely gem from their official site. Listen. Enjoy. PURCHASE! :P
