I got myself a copy of Send Away The Tigers yesterday. I had planned on getting it the day before, but ouldn't find a shop (it turns out that this town only has ONE C.D. shop; can you believe it').

My intial thoughts are:
- It's a nice enough album, with somegood tracks.
- There seems to be a limk to some video footage (I'm guessing the single's video clip), but as I don't have access to Iternet every day at the flat, I was unable view it.
- The title track and "Your love alone is not enough" are pretty damn good.
- I think it's going to be one of those albums that gradually grows on my (like the last Gorillaz album and Belle and Sebastian).

You should give James Dean Bradfield's solo album, 'The Great Western', a go.

Oh, hey, this Album is getting a U.S. Release next month, and I went ahead and bought the import because it might not happen. Damn!! Actually, I only bought it because my record shop had it. Heh, they got me, I'm a sucker for all things MSP, what can I say?

You should have seen me on my quest to find Generation Terrorists, and Gold Against the Soul. I wanted to go to the Virgin store in downtown Chicago while I was there one year, because I knew they'd have them, but my Aunt took me to a crappy used store instead because she doesn't like downtown and I guess didn't want anybody else to go. I got a Weezer shirt with a skateboarding horse instead. To make a long story longer, I ordered them online, and the next time I went to the Virgin store in Chicago, sure enough, they had both albums. But whatevs. Hahah. Obviously I'm bored tonight.
I want to get JDB's album, but I keep forgetting to look for it. Damn.
