  • i haven't really listened to their second one yet

    i really liked the first one, should i give the second one more of a chance?

    jp100 | 22 Jun '06, 20:30 | X
    • yes

      set aside an hour, put it on and just relax.
      maybe inthe dark.

  • more frusciante?

    bugger.

    Heliotrope | 22 Jun '06, 20:39 | X
    • why?

      he's a fantastic guitarist!

      therapyrock @Heliotrope | 22 Jun '06, 20:40 | X
      • exactly.

        more frusciante does not = more rhcp

        fishplums @therapyrock | 22 Jun '06, 20:41 | X
        • Well I actually wasnt expecting anything from TMV for a good few years, I suppose this is good news, lets hope its as good as de-loused.

          TheShapeOfPunkToCome @fishplums | 22 Jun '06, 20:48 | X
      • i dont like him.

        just generally.

        also, i think that TMV are better when theyre focused than when theyre noodling away. and when theyre noodling away, i still think omar is a better guitarist.

        Heliotrope @therapyrock | 22 Jun '06, 21:19 | X
  • I reckon FTM is better

    Deloused is more immediate, but there isn't beating that 30 minute epic!

    therapyrock | 22 Jun '06, 20:49 | X
    • I prefer de-loused

      Improvisation is good, but not when 30 minutes of birds chirping and other "ambience"..

      yes_ @therapyrock | 22 Jun '06, 20:59 | X
      • At the risk of sounding like a hippie here,

        You've got to feel the music, man.

  • John Frusciante

    Is only playing Omar's parts isn't he? It's so he can take another perspective at it or something...

    Jolley | 22 Jun '06, 21:53 | X
    • That looks wrong

      *Omar's guitar parts.

      Jolley @Jolley | 22 Jun '06, 21:54 | X
      • thanks to your clarification

        i got the dirty sense when i didn't before. ha!

        ex_cynic @Jolley | 22 Jun '06, 21:56 | X
  • I'm not

    sure if I actually care anymore. FTM really didn't do it for me, I just keep coming back with the arguement that MV "aren't as good as ATDI" which is stupid, petty and futile of me because they're not the same thing and should be classed seperatley and I hate it when people do that.

    Stupid fucking titles too. I hate the RHCP's, MOAN MOAN MOAN.

    dazedmarc | 22 Jun '06, 22:15 | X
  • oooh,

    good news.

    marke | 22 Jun '06, 23:45 | X
    • glad to see

      from the song titles alone that they haven't varied from their policy of being exceptionally bizarre.

      • Jesus wept

        Why don't they just quit?

        Please, God, give up, you noodle-happy pretentious...!

        Teepee_uk @since-last-summer | 23 Jun '06, 13:58 | X
        • ...

          mmmm, noodles.

          edtsf @Teepee_uk | 23 Jun '06, 14:06 | X
        • why would they quit?

          they are doing exactly what they want on pretty much their own terms and people are lapping it up. i can't really imagine a situation less conducive to packing it in.

          marke @Teepee_uk | 23 Jun '06, 16:49 | X
          • ..

            And they're ace.
