Hi pat! Is this the same pat we've known for so long, or someone new?

And greetings Glitter and Doom!

How is it not cool? Of course its all a matter of opinion, but her playing the piano didn't exactly make anyones ears bleed now did it?
If anything its admirable that such a great, atmospheric, and beautiful album was made out of that fact. Again, in my opinion.

It's a matter of taste, it's not everybody's favorite album.

keeping your cool (by sticking to an instrument you already know well enough) might just keep your music from getting hot.

Stumbled across this tonight:

According to Mick Harvey's web site, they're recording in April 2010. Now we know (maybe) that they're using a church.

it says that "a church has been converted",
presumably from Christianity to Polly-theism.
