because i posted about mumford + sons, johnny flynn, jay jay pistolet and couldn't possibly ignore laura marling - however predictable. seriously, these guys make for the coolest gang ever.
don't you love it when an artist actually lives up to the hype? you hear about someone again and again and when you finally decide to give them a try, you're still blown away.
i've been listening to laura marling's first album, 'alas i cannot swim', a lot over the last few days, it really is amazing. every song slowly builds up until it reaches that point when you can't do anything but listen. every song there stands on its own, every song a turning point. but there's more to come too : new album, 'i speak because i can', is due for release in march. possibly followed by another record end of the year? and i'm already so in love with the new songs. wow. anyway, enough talking! watch the videos and you'll see what i'm talking about :

work this weekend was insane but entertaining. the ghostbusters definitely spiced it up. yes, i did say ghostbusters.
