Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Is the single getting a physical release as well? Decided what's going to make up the b-sides if so?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

It's just a free download release.

This, Everyday, For the Rest of Your Life, will be the first proper single release in September from RJ and B-sides are being worked on at the moment.

Sheesh, the band arent that great.
Post rock by numbers anyone?

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I like them a lot. They've got an hint of tragedy in their music that helps them rise above, I think. 'Divorce' and 'This. Every Day...' are my favourite from the album so far.

Live they're truly special though. Especially when they're pairing up with Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies and doing '...Spooks The Horse' together, which nearly brought me to tears.

I didnt know they were releasing a single, quality stuff, amazing band.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Not convinced, ive seen them live at the army n navy in chelsmford like 4 years ago and they still put on the loud act, and with moody vocals over the top which never do anything.

Its lacking soul.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

So you're judging a band now based on a live show you saw years ago?

Um, flawed arguement much?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

No , if you read closer, i am saying that i have seen them 4 years ago, and i have seen them more recently also.

You sound like an idiot, "So you're judging a band now based on a live show you saw years ago? " .

Would you like me to go out and buy there music, n see them live every other week? then can i judge them? Moron.

If you looked a bit further than over the top of your NME , or could be arsed to go out and find some bands for yourself, than maybe you would see that redjetson aren't that relevant.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

i am saying that i have seen them 4 years ago, and i have seen them more recently also.

You said nothing of the sort.

The post of yours I was refering to made no comments about seeing them recently, simply that you had seen them at the Army & Navy - which, to my knowledge, hasn't even existed for a few years.

Fair enough if you've seen them recently - your opinion is valid then. But, again, you didn't mention this.

Would you like me to go out and buy there music, n see them live every other week?

I would think any kind of opinion you wish to be taken seriously would be based on up to date information - again, which you did not say you had.

If you looked a bit further than over the top of your NME , or could be arsed to go out and find some bands for yourself, than maybe you would see that redjetson aren't that relevant.

This makes no sense - perhaps you could point me to an issue of the NME where they hype, or even mention, Redjetson?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

he did, kinda:

'ive seen them live at the army n navy in chelsmford like 4 years ago and they still put on the loud act'

I have seen them (past)...they still (present)

surely? but not explicit

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

You are totally missing my point, i basically meant if you got up of your arse, and perhaps looked a bit harder, ie look further than NME (with me still?) , you might find that redjetson are not as incredible as you'd like to think they are, god forbid you should listen to anything on kranky recordings.

Why are you even dissecting what i say? Based on up to date info? Ive got there album, someone copied it for me, as i wanted to see wether they are as bad as i remember, kapeesh? you put on there cd and all the songs run into each other, cos its Redjetson are lacking a certain originality.
You ever wondered why such a a 'great band' as you would say are on such a crap label?

"Fair enough if you've seen them recently - your opinion is valid then. But, again, you didn't mention this. "

And i dont need you to tell me that my opinion is valid, jerk.




Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

You are totally missing my point, i basically meant if you got up of your arse, and perhaps looked a bit harder, ie look further than NME (with me still?)

Your point is still ridiculous - when have Redjetson been featured in the NME? When did I ever give any indication that I read the NME? What possibly occured in your brain to bring that into this discussion?

Why are you even dissecting what i say?<./i>

Because I'm trying to have a vaguely adult discussion over this matter, rather than throwing out childish insults like you appear to insist on doing?

Based on up to date info? Ive got there album, someone copied it for me,

Again, a point you failed to mention.

you put on there cd and all the songs run into each other, cos its Redjetson are lacking a certain originality.

Odd point - Godspeed do the same as well [on your beloved Kranky, I think?] for the large part - do they lack originality?

You ever wondered why such a a 'great band' as you would say are on such a crap label?

Well, apart from the point that I don't remember ever even saying I thought Redjetson were 'great', but we'll skip over that.

So you're calling DiS a crap label? Which label SHOULD they be on?

And i dont need you to tell me that my opinion is valid

You'd probably find you'd be taken a lot more seriously if you made yourself clear in the first place - I replied because you seemed to be making ridiculous points based on limited experience. Why mention seeing them four years ago as a basis for them being crap? Why not mention the fact you have the album and have seem them recently?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

What man , i thought i made it perectly clear in the last message i wrote. Did i forget to mention i had there album, so? So now you know, great ,you just assumed i didnt have it, you assumed that i didnt have a clue what i was talking about, what you think im just making this up? If you had half a clue you would know what im talking about.

"Odd point - Godspeed do the same as well [on your beloved Kranky, I think?] for the large part - do they lack originality? "

You wanna compare godspeed to redjetson, and then ask me what i think? I compare the two cos they are both pigeon holed in post rock category, if you really think that redjetson are that great fine, godspeed are twenty times better than redjetson, you think you could have godspeed as background music? no, but yes you could for redjetson, as it is bland, and all the guitars sound the same, soaring soundscapes? dont make me laugh, they are post rock for kids.

"You'd probably find you'd be taken a lot more seriously if you made yourself clear in the first place - I replied because you seemed to be making ridiculous points based on limited experience"

Err well the only other person who replied to my post said it is quite clear what i meant, thats cos it wasnt meant to be a three page essay, it was meant to be a short comment on the album and what i though.

"Well, apart from the point that I don't remember ever even saying I thought Redjetson were 'great', but we'll skip over that"

So basically your some jock who sits on the centre and has no opinion, surely if your willing to actually turn this into an argument then you must like redjetson? you'll skip the part were you didnt say they were great , whys that? you shouldnt be afraid of your own personality , i know your probably too worried about what other people are thinking to actually share your own veiws instead of poorely interpruting mine to suite your argument.

"Why mention seeing them four years ago as a basis for them being crap"

I made it clear that i was talking about the fact they havent changed, can you compare 4 years ago to like a month ago in terms of have they actually improved as a band, is it relevant, yes it is.

"So you're calling DiS a crap label? Which label SHOULD they be on? "

So wait you must mean that YOU think that DIS is a great label? right? i mean, what label should they be on? your asking me? Dont act like an idiot, you know perfectly well what i mean, you think redjetson are that great, why would they be on such a rubbish label as DIS?




Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I'm not going to join this arguement just closing your html tab.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

It's a real shame you think my label is rubbish and are acting like such a disrespectful asshole because you actually like a lot of my favourite bands Murder of... (RIP.. have you heard Shauns new band?) and Patrick Wolf to name but two on your profile.

Be curious to know WHY you think our label is "rubbish"? Is going out on a limb for music we love not enough for you? That's quite some personal attack to not back it up.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

,OK sean touche.

I guess you just cant have your own opinion any more.

And its too bad you take it so personally, thats just unprofessional.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Infact, last time i mentioned not liking redjetson you were all over me, so what i dont like the band?

DIS used to be really promising, its just a shame that do something pretty never got back on form after changing its site.

Sorry if it seems like im acting like an asshole, but why the hell cant i argue my point , i think youll see as too who starts the arguement if you just read the thread.

And i cant believe someone such as yourself cant see what i mean.



Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I'd just like to know why you think the label is rubbish? And while you're at it, why DiS is no longer "promising"? It's fair enough you have an opinion, but I'm curious as to WHY.

If you've got an axe to grind, grind away or like, don't come here or if you do just don't read news stories about bands you quite clearly don't have a positive word to say about. It's like having a wound and continually poking it to proove it hurts.

I agree your initial points weren't clear. I was rather confused why you'd slag off a band you haven't heard for 4 years, because quite clearly they've developed.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Shaun has a new band?
What are they called?
What do they sound like?
Where can I hear them?

These questions need to be answered

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Look i really cant be arsed to talk about redjetson anymore ive said what i think, i dont know how much clearer i can make what im trying to say.
I dont like the label because of the bands on it, what can i say? I dont like the bands on it. So what , this was a webzine type place for people to have opinions way before it was a label.
I would rather hear reports on Jarcrew n were the hell they have gone rather than franz ferdinand and Travis (just looking down the news column).
It basically seems that your either with DIS or your against them, when its not like that, has anyone else badmouthed your label on this site, i cant beleive more havent, not because they wanna be bastards, but because they wanna let others know what they think, they arent being arrogant twats, they are saying what they think, just like the majority who clearly like your label and say how interested they are in it, there are obviously gonna be different opinions.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Jarcrews drummer has left to become a Jehovahs Witness.

I just find it weird how you don't say what you think about the music you love, rather than the things you don't like. Just look at your post history...

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Could that be because there is alot of crap you have to shift through to actually find decent bands , which im sure you welll know, the music i love is never discussed on DIS, which begs the question why am i hear, il answer that before you so blatantly ask me, because occasionally there is information i find relevant.

Dont take it personally sean, your website seems to have a cult following, and its always great to see someone building a community around theyre passion, but people have different ideas of what they think i great new music.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

sean fuck him
loadsa people think this site is great, seriously it has bee INSTRUMENTAL in shaping my music taste, and if the site did go or not offer what it did, then, well... I don't know what I'd do *sniffs*

It must hurto hear him slag off your label, but he is the underwhelming, insignificant minority

helen hearts dis :)

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

they're eviller than most post-rock. more dark and rumbly than a lot of it.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I dont really want to get too involved in this discussion, but that comment about the music you love isnt discussed is daft, in the last few days i've seen discussions on patrick wolf, four tet, !!! ...and you will know us by the trail of dead. All of whom you mention on you're profile. Oh and there was an interview with a silver mount zion who i presume you like given your championing of godspeed...

Sure the site may be lacking in news about said bands, but if theres nothing to report then what are they meant to do, make it up? This aint the nme...

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

wanting a bit of a virtual row is quite another ;)

Why do I get the feeling you're aiming that at me? ;)

PS, are you going to Oxes @ LSE next week??

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

is it me or does the download link not work?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

didnt work for me either, but the one on the redjetson site does...

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

weird. was the wrong speech marks (due to the ones word uses, rather than plain text).
fixed now.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Hey, get off toby you lot.

I like the DiS site, but I think Redjetson suck and I have been a bit disappointed by the label's output so far. I think that's all he was saying really. No need to get the knives out over that is there? It's not like he was wishing a plague on DiS or anything...

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Simmer down.

Some people will like us, some people will think we 'suck' (Thanks Mr Brainlove).

That's the way it goes and we should all live in harmony.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

:) you're welcome.

It's hard to take criticism at first when you're in a band I think, but you kinda get used to it. It comes with the territory. For ever 5/5 review, there will be 0/5. Same with a label. Some people will absolutely love what a label does, some will think it's totally worthless, this is just the way things are. You just have to keep faith in what you are doing and accept the criticism along with the praise.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

You're totally right Mr B.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

All's I was saying is that it's worth knowing WHY people don't like something and say it's rubbish. Without a clues, you can't self-analyse.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

That is also true Mr Adams.

I love you all.

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I was a bit unsure of the album originally, but I have had a long listen and I think it is really good, not quite a masterpiece but very close, they sound like they could be a very promising band...... for some reason they remind me of an early levitation???

lets hope their next album is every bit as good as coterie - need for not

p.s. this mail may not make any sense.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

OXES STAND ON BOXES.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Tempted, what night is it?

Thursday 9th, at the Quad in LSE.

Are you going to see 65 DoS on Sunday?

Where is that? I'm going to the Barfly gig on the 10th..

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

This sounds JUST LIKE explosions in the sky with a front man. No thanks.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Actually, the songs on our record don't all run into each other - some do.

Sure, that idea has been done by loads and loads of bands and we have never claimed that it's original, but then neither is playing the guitar, playing bass, playing drums and singing all at the same time. Getit?

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I wish I was in a band that sucked as much as Redjetson.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I wouldn't call New General Catalogue background music either. The opposite in fact, it demands my attention as much as any record I've bought this year. But hey, that's personal preference I suppose.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Exactly, it should be "Once I killer a man, seriously".

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

hmm redjetson definately do lack originality, but 'persevance works' is still one of my favourite tracks of the year.
yeh, it definately steals some ideas from bands like EITS and some from Joy Division, but the songwriting is still top notch and flows well. some of the tracks on the album are poor and maybe unnecessary ('new europ' especially) but for a debut album it is still really impressive.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Explosions in the sky are great live, terrible on record, although i like the kinda sickly sweet sound they have going on.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

Ah, not to that show, no. I have a large dislike for Milo..

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

yeh, thats true, although i love 'the only moment we are alone' the rest of the album is pretty borin. from what ive heard of it the first album seems the best. guess they have that in common with redjetson too

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

redjetson are DEFINITELY a band that grows on you. when i first saw them live (at truck) i thought they were ok. however i have seen them 3 times since and now i cant get enough. same goes with the album, thought it was very average at first, now i regard it as one of my best purchases in the last year.

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

yes. and to whore, an interview with ryankinos band komakino (i guess) can be found in the latest notts issues of Sandman magazine
www.sandmanmagazine.co.uk

hmm, back to Redjetson.

komakino, toured with HOTS
HOTS toured with YMSS (yeh same tour)
YMSS done shows with 65dos
65dos...nah, cant be bothered

Redjetson album=good

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download

I think they've made a fantastic album. You can argue all you like about whether they're post-rock by numbers or not, or original or not; the fact is they write bloody brilliant songs. Seriously. Listen to the album a couple of times and you'll feel like you've known the songs since you were born.

And to be honest, the whole marriage of EITS-esque post-rock with PROPER songs is a pretty original thing to do,. Ok, so it's pretty simple, but who the fuck else has done it? And everyone lauds 65daysofstatic for being pioneering for mixing electronica with post-rock (though they're by no means the first), and that's a pretty simple thing to do too.
