I adore ¨Williamsburg¨....The groove, the vocals...man, even the lyrics are great.

still such a good record. It's a shame they didn't tour and promote it more.
It could have found fans on it's own, outside the PJ or Joseph Arthur fanbase...

yeah, i guess Jeff had to cut our short the RNDM tour because of PJ.

Its a shame.

Really good album that has slipped to no2 this year.

Enjoying this more and more as I try to decide on my top 5. Strays has snuck up on me to be the album highlight

I think the title track is my favorite.
I'm also very fond of Got to Survive for some reason

These 2 plus Stumbling Down are the ones.

Got to Survive is so damn catchy.

Does anyone have the download version of RNDM's "Theme From RNDM Gong" that they could share with me?

I bought the vinyl version of the album in part so I could get the digital version of that track, but the download card doesn't work any more, and One Little Indian aren't replying to my emails asking for the download.

Thanks in advance,
Ben

i went to upload this and apparently i must have done so already some time back because it was already on there.

i'm listening to this for the first time right now. i like it. more than i thought i would. at first i assumed, "Eh, i'll think it's ok just bc Jeff is associated with it, and I think he's the most creative in PJ". But I am legitimately enjoying it.

for some reason, it feels like a direction Bon Iver could have gone into. maybe it's just the tone and delivery of the vocals.

Let us know which ones stand out to you, maybe after a few spins.

"Stray" is giving me vibes of Bowie's "Heroes"

"Stray" really does sound like they set out to rewrite "Heroes". It's alright, but I'd rather listen to the latter.

I had a feeling I couldn't have been the first person to call that out

Same!

Oh, Stumbling Down is so, so good.
