white magic
 
are fucking great!

through the sun door is amazing, with the exception of plain gold ring.

im not as keen on the split they did with america anolog set though. i think its just mira and some sleepy bloke. theres a new album coming out soon too......lets hope its a goodun.

i've been very curious to hear them.

They opened for SY when I saw them in Cleveland a few years back. I wasn't incredibly amazed.

when you saw em, was it mira and one other guy? or a three piece band?

i saw them as the three piece a couple of times before i really knew or got into them and they didnt exactly blow me away....except for her voice. then after i got to love em, i went to a show and it was the new incarnation.
not the same and not as good imo.
through the sun door is a must though.

I saw them open for SY as well, and they were pretty good. I wasn't real into it though because I was so excited about getting to see Sonic Youth for the first time.

I think it was a 3 piece. I remember she sounded to me like Nico with lung cancer. But she could have been on an off day. The guitarist was playing a tele and he used a drumstick with it on one song.

I actually prefer 'Songs Of Hurt And Healing' (minus the American Analog Set songs) to 'Through The Sun Door'... I've been looking forward to their new album for ages...

i really liked through the sun door, but the only time i caught them live (as a duo) it was pretty disappointing. it thought they were stoned as fuck, but maybe the bloke was just sleepy indeed.
