about VW?

A good thing i reckon they're ace. It's not music thats going to change the world or anything sure, though I maybe bored of them soon at this rate.

Get the album.
Listen to it 25 times.
Agree with me.

just distinctly average.

They're good on record, but if you're referring to the Hools Holland performance then yeah, that was piss poor. I've seen school bands better than that.

2) that performance on Jools Holland was crap
3) give them a chance

just plain old boring.

i came on here specifically to see if there was a thread discussing their performance. the singer has such an annoying voice and the bassist might as well not be playing cos fuck me if i can hear it making any difference whatsoever. there is no substance, its all twee and bollocks. christ. iv probably had one too many a whisky sour but blimey im annoyed that a band like that can play on jools.

but Born Ruffians are kinda similar and much much better than VW

Just rubbish. Completely dull, the greyest of greys.

they have pop hooks. I confess to walking along humming that guitar riff and then going "hey hey hey hey"

but they're literally shit. They fit wayyyyy too perfectly into the current fashion music scene. Makes them look horrible.

They're performance of Jools last night was weak.

Yes, they're getting hype
Yes, it's not all deserved
Yes, they are still really not that bad
Yes, they are also not that brilliant either, but have a few good songs.

Get over yrselves.

Move on.

just like

I could watch them two banging those drums for the rest of my life and never be less entertained by it than I was the first time I ever saw it.

catchy songs, something different. middle class university rock has a bizarre effect on me.

but theyre pleasant
i like pleasant a lot.

Thank you. I was beginning to think I was the only one!

any reason behind them being 'shit'?

and am the first to admit that I sometimes sniff at things solely for the fact that they're being spoken about.

But really, the album is wonderful. I'm pretty enamoured with it. And 'M79' is too lovely-sounding for words.

those guys are geniuses. It definitely takes a few listens of the LP though. all the way through. focused listens.

and their album is one of the best debuts I've heard for a while. I also thought they were pretty good on Jools Holland.

Cheers.

and nothing more.
