Test Icicles
i havent really paid much attention to them before or any threads relating to them so i don't know what the general concensus of opinion on them was/is, but i've just heard them for the first time and think they are shite
please don't say they will be everywhere soon and i won't be able to escape them
they are shite
but i think that might be the whole point
I like them
they're entertaining, noisy and on a couple of their songs they sound like McLusky.
I'm with the mighty
kovacs on this one. Apart from the McLuskey bit. I knows nowt about McLuskey. Either way, that wasn't the point. I like Test Icicles.
I saw them
for a split second on channel 4 last night at about 1 am.
They're funny.
oh dear god
you've all been brainwashed
I'd say
Arctic Monkeys is a worse name than Test Icicles... no, wait, having just read both names out in my head, Test Icicles is definitely worse.
test icicles
name suits them
I just got sent the full album - better than a sampler and I had to ask ALOT. I really like them and they're fun live in a car crash sense. They're not commercial enough to always be on tv etc but circle square is one of those songs that you might hear for a while.
pitchfork
compares these guys to the blood brothers ... i can kind of see where theyre coming from, but BB are way better
i saw them
last thurs at London LSE. They were ace, the album is unhinged madness. I agree that they do remind me of blood brothers due to their insane chaotic approach. I like their name, but even they admit its shit.
