AGREED! Had the opportunity to see Labradford perform most of this album on Thursday nite. They seriously rank up there with giants like Eno, Michael Brook, and The Durutti Column. Quite a nice show, liked they way they've incorporated the Oval/Pole clicks in their repertoire. I suppose clicking has become the new scratching. What I did find puzzling, however, was how many more people came to see Godspeed You Black Emperor. Godspeed is a great band, but I always found Labradford to be the giants of this genre. Perhaps I'm just getting old. :-) Anyway, I, for one, am greatly anticipating the Labradford mix of LFO... Mike.
