Surely the most lovely music I have bought this year so far comes in an very impractical format and with tasteless artwork.

Days - Downhill (2008) is released by Shelflife as a two track 7 inch vinyl single plus a 5 track CDEP. This means that I as a listener have to find a way to covert vinyl to mp3 and that is not easy for me at all. It ended up with me having to find an illegal source to download the two tracks I already had bought!! Shelflife, I strongly suggest that you in the future add the vinyltracks to the CDEP as well. It is pretty with a 7 inch, but my primary interest is to actually listen to the music. (And yes I have a vinyl player, but not at work, where I listen on my computer).

On top of it all. The cover looks like a self portrait of an old senior citizen in a tropical garden. Really ugly.

But the music is absolutely wonderful.
