Is this really from the horses mouth or just DavidAC's tenuous stab in the dark... I cant think of anything better, but I think its a bridge too far... Maybe it is and he's a real football head but I cant see it. I'm going right off Bola!

Wow, I am really impressed with Gnayse. I've been reading some reviews that absolutely knock the hell out of it. Either I am missing the bad or everyone else is missing the good. I think its incredibly melancholy and that might just be it--it's too slow and "depressed". I really like that, though.
Gnayse Rules

Spot on Orbyss. Gnayse is very emotional in my opinion. Perhaps I like melancholy more than the average person, but Bola's albums all have that special touch. Me being a very recent Bola fan inductee, I have to say, the albums all complement each other very well. I say bravo for multi movement tracks (Forcasa and Pfane) which this world needs more of....

perhaps there is something of a transatlantic-Bola-divide here...?

I definitely feel this way, too. They're all similar, but not to the point of monotony. Soup has a "raw" feeling to it, though, and the latter all have a more polished feel. But they are all uniquely Bola, in my opinion.

Actually it seems that way. I wonder what it is? And am I prepared to hear the theories? (Oh no)

been listening to lots of funckarma recently and i reckon theres more than a passing resemblence to Bola (at his best) in some of the tunes...
Trezz in particular is beautiful and bola-esque (on Neo Ouja Annexe compilation)
Would highly recommend these guys to Bola fans....

As I have lived under a large rock for the last *@^& years I had never heard of Bola. Got 'Soup t'other day.
This is just my cup of tea. Haven't taken it out of the player yet.
Cheers everyone for the heads up
