The light fantastic

An album on revered indie Bella Union? Tours in support of both Low and Explosions In The Sky? It seems like an old primary school friend of mine is doing rather well for himself in Lanterns On The Lake. I've now invested in the aforementioned album (Gracious Tide, Take Me Home) - yet to listen to it, but am hoping I can report that the boy done good.

(Of course this is just another setback in my quest to wrap up the SWSL Top 10 Albums of 2011 - I'll have to give it time to impress before compiling the round-up...)
