World's End Girlfriend - Farewell Kingdom

this is one of those albums that makes you sit up and take notice, it's truly fantastic stuff. unfortunately it's very difficult to get hold of (japan only release i think) though a few copies did manage to get over to the UK. it's got everything from classical guitar, violin and piano etc to glitched up noise and fast paced beats, usually all in the space of just one track. the tracks tend to start of with minimal sounds, progressing through electronic bits and bobs and classical instruments to work up to a cresendo of beats and noise and then fall back to ambient sounds. it's a beautiful album that has spread widely on p2p programmes just through recommendations and word of mouth, i've yet to meet someone who hasn't instantly liked this album, a real winner.
