Gomez rocks!

Cool sound! What more can I say? Recently discovered, and found their music to be interestingly textured, capable of standing up to more than two listenings, good on for the iPod and better on a real hi-fi system.

Besides, here's a bit of trivia - the band played their first gig together in late 1996 in Leeds without a formal name. The band left a sign out for a friend of theirs whose surname was Gomez to indicate that it was the site of their first gig. People saw the sign and assumed that the band's name was Gomez - the name stuck.

How can one not like that, eclectic-sounding music and that low-key approach...please go listen to Gomez if you haven't already. It'll make you smile, without drugs - I promise!
