It seems as if the problem with the last few years is that there wasn't enough content.
can't believe this design has been up since 2008/09
i feel so old
Just change it back to the 2000 version, sean
had everything you need
Does DinoMAN
have another username? I really liked DinoMan.
He is currently on an dinosaur hunting expedition
Anyone remember when the boards were actually peach and pastel shades?
That was a heady few months.
i liked that
People complained like fuck about it tho.
not me
that was what made me sign up
...welcome to Drowned in Sound
You've switched from electric to sound waves. Enjoy your trip on the musical substances contained within!
haha those DIS bubbles
Mistakes, Regrets, etc
"All Regrets"
I wish I was better-looking
And girls would look my way
I wish I was funnier than everyone else
And could brighten up your day
I wish I knew a little bit more
About the life we have to lead
I wish was loads stronger
And didn't always have to concede
I wish I was richer
Because money is all I need
I wish I had more faith in me
I just wanna believe
I wish life had dealt me a better deal
And things weren't always so hard
Everything I do, Every word I say,
All of it, in someway marred
I wish I had a girlfriend
To make me feel complete
And to walk hand in hand with her
And leave this lonely street
I wish I could play acoustic guitar
And write a beautiful song
Have other blokes jealous of me
I wish I really could belong
I wish I didn't have to write poems
To tell my innermost fears
I wish every argument I always have
Wouldn't end in tears.
2006 ftw
looks a bit like the New York Times site

Vivd happy memories of 2006-07
this ^
not sure why but I used to always read the front page content then and it reminds me of happy times for some reason, probably cos I was only 19 and more naive
Think I started using it circa 2004.
I can remember buying a Love Ends Disaster! EP on the strength of a review alone. It was quite good.
That seems antiquatedn but
I bought the Hookworms album off the back of the 10/10 review. Ah well.
why can't we have threads like this anymore?

I was a doctor, back then.
of music?
Of love
Of death
of EVIL
bring back the dis philosophy
bring back the user submitted prose section
If I clicked through to a site that looked like September 25th 2001, nowadays,
I'd immediately click away and check that noscript was on becasue it looks like one of those spammy malware sites
What? What does this mean?
Educate me so I too can stop getting viruses from looking at porn.

I'm actually old enough to remember some of the really old users in that forum thread from 2003 linked.
Dr Furry was really cool and of course well indie because he was Canadian.
wow memories going back to 2001
(2000 isn't working) I'm glad I didn't start reading the boards until like 2005/6 or that really would have been a lost youth.
Is it just me cos I'm old now, but when I look at the old front pages I see loads of articles etc I'd read even if I wasn't a fan of the band I'd prob read it to check it out.
Nowadays on the front page I barely recognise the names let alone bother to read much. Is this cos I'm old and out of touch or has there been a shift in the kind of bands covered (and not just by DiS but in the wider music journlism sphere).
Dunno mate, I don't even like music. I'm just here for the poon.
Wait, it was archived on April 3rd this year??
It missed htmHELL day by DAYS.
Ah, the classic 2003 logo, not sure if I remember using the site before that but I was definitely reading by then...
...Which is now ten years ago. Damn.
Man I can remember 10 years of DiS
This makes me feel very old
I've been using this site for nearly 10 years.
Bloody hell.
Thank you.
new logo is so good compared to the old one
good job whoever did that/Sean for choosing it
fucking hell, I've been on here since 2009
5 whole years and I'm still a wanker.
