Type is a wonderful label that has sadly ceased putting out records nearly as frequently as they used to. Tis sad. Goldmund is great but basically all solo piano so rather different from Helios.

I'm loving this atm.

Apparently I am the only appreciator of minimalism in this thread.

Wait, seriously? This is news to me. I always thought she had a pretty androgynous figure, but then I think my only exposure to what she looks like is from the Horses cover.

I've got this massive hardback book called The Beatles: Ten Years That Shook The World, and in it it says that the original album name they wanted was A Doll's House, but someone else was doing it. The book also said that no way in hell could they have got away with the same artwork if the album was called that. I agree, I think it'd only work for a self-titled record.

In fact, I think bands should only make self-titled albums AFTER their first album, to indicate a change in line-up and/or style. I think making your first album self-titled is just lazy and boring.
