[Spiral]

I hope to see them soon! I love "Brighter Than Sunshine" :D :D

[Paul]

Excellent live too.

[Decades]

Beautiful music.

Excellent live too.

Amen.

[Libra]

*two thumbs up*

I'm currently waiting for my copy of the newest album to arrive in the mail...

[How To Be Dead]

They make beautiful music.

[Nincy Face]

i only know about 5 songs but they seem pretty cool to me:)

[Chris No1]

i saw them live, blew me away more than feeder did... you could feel everybody's spines tingling at the end

I don't know much about them...
I have one of their albums, "Aqualung" I think is the name (I lost the booklet thingy inside).

How many are there in total?

I think 2?

The first album, and then Still Life (I think that's the name of the second...).

[CommunistOlga]

Ah...
I'll probably have to download the stuff.
They're completely unknown here, and I've never seen anything by them on sale.
The album I have I got when I went to England last summer...
I suppose no one could upload their copy of Still Life somewhere for me to download, eh? :D [/begging]

your right still life is the second album. both albums are brilliant. i love matt hales stuff. have heaps of fave tracks on both albums.

i'd do it. but i'm crappy at things like that. but here is link to hear albums etc on fan site. :) http://www.aqualung.net/audio.php don't know if that helps you.

[CommunistOlga]

That's brilliant, thanks! :D
I don't like the files' format, but I'll record them and convert them into MP3s.
Many, many thanks.
I really didn't suspect that their actual albums'd be on their site free of charge...
Once again, thanks a lot :)

Thats okay. Just glad it helped. :)

[Spiral Static]

They were OK live supporting Feeder, a little bit dull though I thought. I have downloaded a few songs though and they seem pretty good, I love Strange and Beautiful and Brighter than Sunshine, but the piano love song after piano love gets a bit samey and dull.

[open_heart_zoo]

aqualung are amazing.

that is all.

[Hoppipolla]

Best of that genre (yeah, screw genres but it makes it easier to praise Aqulung as much as they truely deserve). I'd heard two songs, and was already hooked. BRILLIANT! :D Not so fond on Strange and Beautiful after so damn long.

[open_heart_zoo]

And I'm still loving Aqualung.

Damn you people going to V... damn you.

[Hoppipolla]

And I'm still loving Aqualung.

Damn you people going to V... damn you.

Still...?

Yep, me too.

[nastley]

Aww it's great to see so many people loving Aqualung - brings a tear to my eye! :o)

The one comment that stands out from everyone is how great they are live. I've seen their previous incarnation (The 45s) many times but *sniff* Aqualung only played their first live gig a couple of weeks after I left England.

I saw Still Life in a mainstream music shop here in NZ and it wasn't on import so that surprised me! A lovely friend bought me both the albums in England anyhow.

[Josie]

I love this band too much to comprehend.

[theimpressiveclergyman]

How is this thread only two pages?
'Tain't right.

Still haven't got Still Life though...

[progmetalfan]

They were on Conan O'Brien last night. Might have to check out my recording to see if they're as good as some you say they are...

[Honey Ryder]

He's done a really cool track called Ur with DJ Tiesto. Very very mellow indeed.

Ooh I havent heard this one, is there any chance you could send it to me please?

itsohsoeasy @ hotmail. co .uk :)

[hunnytodabee]

Yay for Aqualung! :D :D :D

AND I totally didn't know they were on CONAN! :'( I missed them! :(

I hope they get bigger here- I truly do.

[hunnytodabee]

I just got back tonight from their gig! FLIPPING AMAZING!

Matt is my GOD!

His wife (and writing partner) was there and for the last three songs she got up and sang with. I"f I fall" was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.

PURE class!

*faints with joy*

:D :happy:

[lip.my.stockings]

Aqualung is coming to my town end of May. Does he have a full band live, drums and all? Since the last muse show I can't get "can't get you out of my mind" out of my mind.

[Velocity Girl]

I absolutley love their song"good times gonna come",its so good!anyone know which album its on and are their albums good??? :)

[lip.my.stockings]

The album with that song is self titled,"Aqualung" and yes the rest of the record is amazing. Plenty of beautiful, introspective, piano and vox, love songs...I have soft spot for sissys :$

I heard they are going to be on Conan again in 8th of July or something.

[nastley]

*cries* I wish The 45s (or maybe just plain old Ruth) would have made it big instead of Aqualung.

*cries some more remembering the good old days*

[Tangerine]

Man I haven't been to the boards in a long time

[bumps] because I love Aqualung too
They're coming to Toronto on July 4th but I can't go because it's a 19+ show and I'm a couple of months off [sigh]

[Nattywba]

[Rainbow]

I went see his live last night. :D
It was an amazing show ... he sounded much emotional (in a good way) than his CDs, and there were moments I could sink myself into the music.

+1 to all of that. :yesey:

Please don't tell me he played Good Times Gonna Come, that was left out at Brum. :'(

[Rainbow]

Please don't tell me he played Good Times Gonna Come, that was left out at Brum. :'(I don't think he played it. :)

[Hobo]

I don't think he played it. :)
Ah well, he's a nonce for leaving out the best song anyway. :p

[Rainbow]

Ah well, he's a nonce for leaving out the best song anyway. :pWell, there were plenty of great songs anyways ... I loved "Something to Believe in" from the new album, as well as other old (?) favorites.

[Hobo]

Oh there were indeed. :yesey: Something To Believe In and Pressure Suit from t'new album were especially good, as were Brighter Than Sunshine, Strange & Beautiful and Tongue-Tied, I thought so at least. :D

[Rainbow]

Something To Believe In and Pressure Suit from t'new album were especially good, as were Brighter Than Sunshine, Strange & Beautiful and Tongue-Tied, I thought so at least. :DAw, I've never heard Tougue-Tied ... I just realized I don't have the album 'Strange And Beautiful'. *puts on the shopping list*

[edit]I found 'Tongue Tied' music video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4P7WZwK0QY) with a movie called 'My Life Without Me'. It's a beautiful song.

-also 'Strange & Beautiful' in Toronto (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9zwlltiFo4)
My friend and I were talking how British accent makes guys sexy, and this video has a part of it. :D

[Nattywba]
