Today I met Horst from The Aardvark Speaks, who is a very nice guy. Not only has he put me on his regular blogroll, but he also gave me a recording of The Fall’s live gig in Vienna from a few weeks back. Now, I’d never heard of The Fall before I read Horst’s postings on the concert, so I applied for one of the five CDs Horst offered his readers and he graciously approved. So now I’m off to my music lesson.

So, do you like it?
It’s not at all what I expected, but not in a bad way. I don’t know if it’s simply the recording, but I can’t help being reminded of The Velvet Underground. Which is a good thing, in my eyes. I’m not totally through with dissecting it yet, but I can already say that I like it. Definitely an asset to my collection. And I just realized I am a sucker for “but” sentences (, but that’s normal, right?).
