Went to see Brakes tonight at Spaceland, their first LA appearance. There are so many great songs on their new album, "The Beatific Visions," I just love it. I played this song "No Return.mp3" on Dublab last week. It's not so characteristic of their sound (but what is?) but it's one of the most beautiful heartbreaking songs I've heard this year... "the loneliness of walking by your side is more than walking alone... that's why I'm leaving..."
