I'm really enjoying the new Veils album and its Nick Cave vibe. Kiwi FM are doing there best to overplay the singles from the album but the other tracks are so fucking good I don't really care if they just put Jesus For the Jugular on repeat for 2 weeks.
At this rate Nux Vomica going to be my album of the year and probably in my top 10 of all time. House Where We All Live, Nux Vomica, and Advice For Young Mothers To Be are my standout tracks but to be honest there's not a bad track in the whole lot - simply ten perfectly formed gems.
Anyone else heard the album? Cheers? Jeers?

I reckon Finn Andrews is a talented songwriter and very interesting singer. can get a bit histrionic but a bit of emotion's a welcome thing, at least his heart's in it, even if it is out there on his sleeve!
every critic (and me) has noted the Nick Cave thing - big improvement on his former Morrissey-isms. anyway... but remember how everyone said Coldplay sounded like Radiohead? say what you like about either band (me = Coldplay OK, Radiohead pretty good) but nobody says that anymore. Andrews is developing, hope he sticks with it.
funny how he can only write songs in Devonport, NZ! even if he records and tours them in the UK/Europe etc... must be an Aotearoan deep down eh?
