Life Taxi Unintended for Ugly.

Hello there! You might get the title later on, who knows?

So, another weekend, another lack of a blog. I'm a devious little fella, aren't I? I'ma start off by apologising for something guys and gals - my plea's for comments was unfair. I didn't realise you need an account and need t go through some sort of effort, so I don't mind not getting comments anymore. Even if it does make me feel unloved...

Its classic album review time! Well...not that classic, but still older than new. Today, I shall be giving you a very quick whats what of Death Cab For Cutie's album, 'Plans'. To give you a quick idea of how they sound, try to imagine a slightly less experimental Radiohead, but American, and ever so slightly jollier - you are now imagining Death Cab for Cutie. Plans is one of their more recent albums, released in 2005, and is an absolute corker if you're looking to chill to some tunes. Tracks like 'Different Names for the Same Thing' and 'What Sarah Said' expose the bands more mellow, thoughtful side, featuring some nice piano work and some very personal and deep lyrics while tracks like 'Soul Meets Body' and 'Crooked Teeth' are more upbeat and striking - both of these song styles are balanced well throughout the album and sound great! The best track by far (so far, you can hardly see itout there on the horizon of brilliance) is 'I Will Follow You Into The Dark', a lovely and beautifully simple tune about love so deep you'd follow the apple of your eye to the grave. Its really nice! Overall, I reckon its worth looking at this album if you enjoy Radiohead or even the slightly more indie side of music. Its on sale for £3 on 7.digital.com, so give it a listen! SCORE? 8/10.

I haven't really got any news or anything to complain about today, which is probably gutting for fans of my personal pain and emotional suffering - though I'm hoping those people are far and few between. Although, I do have one thing to say - I'm in lov with Pixie Lott. Shes so hot...ahem, I mean beautiful. And shes canny as they come - I watched a few interviews, bless her heart. Aww. Someone get me Pixie Lott for christmas, c'mon...

The track of the day is actually an album...three guesses which one? Seriously, go on, try it out. It won't be to everyones taste, but who knows? See you on the flippedy sideth!
