Welcome to the world of Sparklehorse where the glockenspiel never stops and no one dares raise their voice.
Sombrely flaunting Sparklehorse's ascetic melancholy tonight he devoutly sprinkles buttercup melodies and tin can riffs over the salivating Liquid Room.
I had been excited about seeing Sparklehorse for a while now, having never had the opportunity before, and this whole week leading up to the show I'd been on a big-time Sparklehorse marathon.
