Hearing Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid

Don't give 'em the elbow

Damn, there are times it's just good to be alive and kicking and the release of a new Elbow album is certainly one of them. Having watched them live on Jonathan Ross' Friday night BBC show, I was blessed to get an advance copy and two tracks in, I'm sold. Wrap it up, I'll take it. This going to get worn out this year.

They're no lookers for sure but with a great noise like this, frankly who cares. Check out Guy Garvey's track-by-track walkthrough of the new album The Seldom Seen Kid. In Garvey, the band is blessed with a fine lyricist but more importantly with a singer of rare simplicity and soul.

I'm not sure that the album will be received with such acclaim - Uncut is being cool about it - but I just don't care, I love it.
