The man, the enigma, the legend: Brian Eno

[cobl04]

He has a new one out November 13 thru Warp. The cover immediately reminded me of Another Green World. 76 minutes split into 12 sections across four tracks.

What an awful thread title this was.

This has come out early.

Fantastic news.

Big Boi's album is pretty much the only record yet to leak this year that I care about though. I'm sure there will be plenty of surprises from the rest of the year, so it's OK.

Listen to Brian Eno's new album LUX now via Q - News - QTheMusic.com

It's not available at my location so fuck it, but some of you might be more lucky.

EDIT: Nevermind, I had a link to Spin that worked, but it's been taken down.

Still streaming here, don't know if it will work for non-Aussies though TheVine - Exclusive stream: Brian Eno's new album 'LUX' - Life & pop culture, untangled

You'd think so though, the internet being American and all.

It got an 8.0 from p4k. I recommend reading the review, because it's hilarious to see a writer try and writer x amount of words on an album that doesn't require more than about 15.

Isn't this just gorgeous? It sends shivers up my spine

Are you surprised? Headache only posts about The Who, Bruce Springsteen, U2 and Pearl Jam. He probably hasn't changed radio stations in years.

oh dear

This is a really good read. Brian Eno: 'It's simply not my temperament to look back' - Features - Music - The Independent

Lux is great, by the way. A great ambient album and I'm pleased to see Eno say that you can listen to it in the background or as you're falling asleep. I love this man.

Before and After Science has quietly become one of my favorite Eno albums. Backwater feels like an even more joyful V-2 Schneider (which was released the same year):

And Julie With is every bit as languid as Another Green World's most contemplative moments:

Great album.

I haven't got around to that one yet. Didn't like Backwater much, his vocals are horrendous on that. The dude really is a horrible singer. Julie With was good.

Another Green World is one of my favourite albums ever though.
