FORGOTTEN GEMS continues, we recommend listening to brilliant albums which seem to have been forgotten.
#8 is from #lateofthepier (@lotpofficial) #fantasyblackchannel album from August 2008.
NME gave the album upon release 4/5 and 6.7/10 from Pitchfork.
One of my favourites from the noughties.

#aboutlastnight What a perfect night @theglasshouseicm.bsky.social watching the first artist that caught my eye back in 1981 on Top of The Pops. Then bought #adamant #kingsofthewildfrontier with my birthday money aged 7 and from then on music had me hooked. Hopefully it will never leave me…..
