now to introduce an amazing sounding band Boards of Canada a band who describe themselves as psychedelic/experimental/electronica but personally i only see the psychedelic side of them there not very experimental in terms of pushing the barriers down in fact i think there quite the opposite and neatly fit into the ambient box.
put simply i could see myself sitting down to a nice bit of green and tripping to boards of canada.

with big sounding effects that paint landscapes in your mind, boards of canada are a truly ambient band who have made some great songs. they join the ranks of my top 5 today because of their song dayvan cowboy wich is just plain amazing.

I have to say that when i first heard The red Jumpsuit Apparatus i was a bit sceptical to say the least. i thought they were O.K. but that was before i heard some of there really great tracks.

there tracks are done better acoustic simple. they sound prettier and it really enhances the lead singers voice without all the messy music in the background. acoustically it allows him to really come into his own and show the true talent he posesses. though it has to be said his lyrics are shit hot. especially in this song face down.
