They're SUCH an amazing band. The kind of band I don't think twice about travelling to Leigh on Sea for (I live in Manchester). I shall be waving this download in people's faces all week now.

Post rock by numbers anyone?

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.

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Its lacking soul.
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Um, flawed arguement much?
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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
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
'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
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
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
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Neither did I, and I quite agree-an amazing band.
I am also glad to see that most people contributing to this thread have something positive to say. Valid criticism is one thing, wanting a bit of a virtual row is quite another ;)
I know that the first time I saw them perform at Truck last year, I was not entirely convinced. The second time at The Dublin Castle, they just amazed me...as they have many times since.
I wish them luck with the single, and hope to catch them again soon.
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
"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
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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
Why do I get the feeling you're aiming that at me? ;)
PS, are you going to Oxes @ LSE next week??

Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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
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
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.

p.s. this mail may not make any sense.
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Gah! Trying to pick a fight with me now, Daniel? :)
...No, it was not aimed at you, I don't think you started it...this time ;)
"PS, are you going to Oxes @ LSE next week??" Tempted, what night is it?
Are you going to see 65 DoS on Sunday?
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
I know! I saw them at Bar Lorca, in Brixton. :)
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
We love you too...some of us anyway ;)
Sorry I couldn't make it to the Leigh on Sea gig.
I will certainly make some of your up coming ones though.
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Sunday is at the Underworld with 65 DoS, Twin Zero, Yourcodenameis:Milo and The Big Sleep. I am going to the Barfly too, of course :)
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
Surely you realise it's grammatical nonsense?
Re: Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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?

Redjetson 'Stay Comfortable' Free MP3 Download
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.

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.
