Piazza, New York Catcher
Posted by Scott
In keeping with the holiday (does this count as a holiday?) I thought I’d post a song from Belle & Sebastian (everyone’s favorite Scottish indie-folk outfit and perhaps my favorite band). I’ve always loved their album covers, usually very simple duotone photos depicting something to do with the album title. Always classic and fitting for the style of the music. I’ll be posting more from them in the coming weeks.
Belle & Sebastian – "Piazza, New York Catcher"

February 15, 2008 at 9:13 amHey, really nice pick, this song it’s the one I like the most in this record. It sounds a bit like something by José Gonzalez, didn’t it? Then I definitely adore the way it begins: “Elope with me…”

I stumbled across B&S a couple of years ago and love’em – perfect melancholia, for when you are in the mood :)

February 23, 2008 at 7:58 pmI haven’t listened to bell and sebastian in a while thanks for reminding me, If you’re feeling sinister is possibly one of the best albums ever recorded. I completely agree about the covers, not only are the great but they fit the mood of the band perfectly. Come to phoenix sometime man it will be fun.
