Gil Scott-Heron and Jamie xx — NY Is Killing Me

I was given a heads up to this band. I have no idea how to classify them. Death jazz? Speed fusion? I dunno. They can damn well play their instruments, I can tell you that.

In a good way or bad way?

Personally I love em, one of my fave bands of the last few years.

Liked them but, as an old Goth at heart, was a tad disappointed

So a bit of both. . .good and bad I guess

I did Goth 'Lite' as a teenager, Cure, lots of 4AD label stuff, Mission etc...

These could also be a tad disappointing going by the band name...
