This week The Herb Whisperer recommends Japanese Cartoon – Lupe Fiasco’s new project apparently inspired by his admiration for Joy Division. Rather good it is too. Even better – the Japanese Cartoon album “In The Jaws Of The Lords Of Death” is a free download.
Fraserhead gave into guilty pleasures and thoroughly recommends Hurts. Herb has been too chicken to play this fantastic synth duo but Fraserhead has no shame. Hurts conjure up all your favourite/hated overblown epic synth duos and boy bands from years gone by. Think all the best (yes really) bits of Westlife, Robbie Williams, Savage Garden, Black, Talk Talk etc etc etc. Truly wonderful. Here’s the classy video for “Better Than Love”…
