Saw them two weeks ago in a venue with 400 people. I was leaning against the stage and reading the setlist taped down a few inches from my elbows. It's the 3rd time I've seen them in the last few years and my word, what a show. Just outstanding.

For me, the Mistress was last year's best album and only Wye Oak's Civilian (also stellar) offered any competition. I've been trawling the net for the past few months and found several live versions of newer and older songs and have become transfixed by Yellow Ostrich. Strange Land doesn't quite live up to my hopes…
