|
![]() | I by Magnetic Fields
Buy new: £7.47 / Used from: £4.79 I resisted the temptation to stick '69 Love Songs' in this spot in favour of the more recent 'I'. A bittersweet selection of songs following in the footsteps of '69LS' - an incredible encore.
|
![]() | Show Me How The Spectres Dance by Liam Frost & the Slowdown Family
Buy used from: £7.00 Perhaps the most underrated album of 2006. Ridden with despair and a longing for the dead - full of pain and feeling.
|
![]() | Hyacinths and Thistles by 6ths

|
![]() | Churning Strides by Thee Stranded Horse

|
![]() | Les Ondes Silencieuses by Colleen
Buy new: £10.98 / Used from: £6.19 Her third studio album is perhaps the best thing to come out of 2007 thus far. 'Les Ondes Silencieuses' radiates an almost classical ambience. Perfect in a dark room.
