Thursday Top 3 @ 3:33 - Top 3 @ 3:33 - As selected by The Unusual History Of Ether


We asked lead singer Rebecca Collins of UHOE what the Danish band has been listening to lately. She was kind enough to do a quick musical 'whip round' with the other band members, and this is what they came up with:

The Late Great Fitzcarraldos - 'Jesu'

"We're really enjoying this song from Danish band The Late Great Fitzcarraldos at the moment... very dreamy/sexy....or sex-dreamy!"



Young Marble Giants - 'Final Day'

"Our bass player Jeppe Skovbakke gave me YMG's album Colossal Youth as a follow-up to some chat we'd had about rhythm guitar. This song is a favourite of mine, even though it's not on the album, I think it was only released as a single. To my ears, they have the ultimate bedroom-band sound. I love the intensity of it."



Portishead - 'Machine Gun'

"We are all big Portishead fans but our drummer Gramski (Jeppe Gram) is particularly into this song - his exact words are: "It's a mix of very ancient sounding melody and really new sounding beat. I must say I love it!" 'Nuff said."
