hang on

"The tour is their first live action for eight years."

I saw 'em in London in 2003.

a

Super Furry Animals

It seems like

every interview I read with this douchebag he makes a mention of his age, yet I also read an interview recently where he did nothing but complain about how the British media are obsessed with how old musicians are. What a ninny.

and

what's wrong with builders?? Buildist!

Bloody hell.

That's unbelievable!

wtf

"Sure, the band is making waves almost entirely due to the antics of their frontman, but that never stopped a million bands of respectable note before them."

What utter bollocks. People like Fucked Up because they rock and are interesting. Tit.

this article

and all the events described within mean nothing.

Other way around

surely?

Fuck

yes. This is gonna be good.

what a prick

what she means is, if the record flops the record company will tell her to fuck off. silly cow. as if she had any part in making the sodding thing anyway.

Wine

house

I understand

he was pissed off that somebody was throwing shit at him, and the guy probably deserved a telling off, but it just shows a lack of intelligence (as well as imagination) using words like faggot and pussy as insults. It's pretty juvenile, ugly stuff. Although I'd be amazed if he really is homophobic, as in genuinely afraid of homosexuality. That would be pretty sad and fairly disappointing seeing as he comes across as a funny and intelligent bloke most of the time.

Unfortunately

he hasn't come out of this whole situation looking like the good guy, has he? Much as I love a lot of his records, he comes across as a complete twat, both in the initial rant and the 'defense' of his words. Shame.

They seem totally

out of touch as far as being human beings but after reading that Quietus review, I am fizzing at the bunghole for this new album.

Are you deaf?

Aero Zeppelin? Scentless Apprentice? Tuneless guff.

Nevermind minus Stay Away + Something in the Way = Nirvana Top 10

Which one?

Curtain Road or the one with the gay sauna?

I think Copper Blue

is good. What Bob Mould solo is best?

This is

alright but more of a pastiche than a good modern album. After hearing their first album I was interested to see where they would go with it but I'm a bit disappointed. I mean, it's enjoyable, I just don't see why it was made. I love the stuff it references, and I don't mind bands wearing influences on their sleeves but they could do with some tunes and a bit of identity.

They should

have just knocked it on the head after "Is This It" if you ask me.

Tranquilizer

?

That is

too much! I can listen to it at home for free without the cheese thanks!

Nah

Pitchfork is gonna kick ass. Sebadoh? Pissed Jeans?? Black Mountain??!!! Of Montreal????!!!!!! That's right!

He did

some killer solo albums too. Expressway To Your Skull motherfucker! R.I.P

I dunno

it seems as though he's always coming over and playing the festival hall. Unless he intends to play Adult Child all the way through, I'm not going!

Dude

I've seen Brian Wilson three times since he's been "back" (this time). He made some great records 40 years ago but his live show is getting pretty tired now.

Thank

you.

Yawn.

Enough already.

Oh well...

obviously just me! I lost 'em around Washing Machine period.

Christ

Does the world really need ANOTHER Sonic Youth album???!!!

Agreed

Earth 2 is great. It's metal but has a soothing effect. Awesome.

Cheryl

is hot.

I saw...

DLR live in 2004...it was a bit embarrasing. The old fella can't quite do the high-kicks anymore.

Rod used to sing great stuff!

Obviously he's let himself go a bit since about 1973 but his first solo records and the stuff with the Faces were fuckin dynamo!! You heard "Little Miss Understood"?? Killer!

A pedant writes!!

Eruptum

I was really

hoping this band would be good but I've heard the album and it's really disappointingly lame. There are tons of bands around the world doing this kind of thing a million times better. It's also really cliched and sounds like a 4th-rate Grand Funk Railroad. Really dull uninventive riffs and the lyrics are just embarrasing. It's pretty sad these guys are selling out places like Koko in London and The Atomic Bitchwax end up playing to 50 people down the Underworld.

They are...

...from Morden, actually. Nonetheless, still absolute inane garbage for idiots.

Yep....

..too bad. I was looking forward to the London date. Funnily enough, this happened when I had tix to see 'em back in 1995!

Nah!

This is in a different league to Toploader. I agree with dewdrop...this is catchy pop goodness.

...

"Artistic differences (de)-partLee to blame".

THAT is your headline.

Last album...

...was pretty good, no? And it had a song called called 'Electric Synapse'.

I expect this will be...

...great! Terrific band. I'd be surprised if they bother doing a UK tour again....about 8 people down the Nottingham Rescue Rooms when they played last April. Still, I suppose they might do ATP and a London date.

I cannot believe....

....that ANYONE enjoys this music. Absolutely astonishing. I have never before felt so perplexed as to what makes people tick.

John Peel Day - Our gig picks & add yours

The Junkyard Choir at the Buffalo Bar, Highbury!

Although the Rumblestrips at the Elbow Rooms will be great too.

Twunts of London tour: big f*cking deal

Kajagoogoo??

The Darkness return on a one-way ticket

And they're awesome. Best band from England in years.

Six By Seven - "We never told anybody that we split up, because we didn’t feel it was important."

They never told anybody that they split up because they didn't feel it was important??!!

Well their bass player was in the bar of the Rescue Rooms in Nottingham a couple of months ago telling anyone who would listen that they had broken up. And he was crying too.

Back to Bluntdom: Your 'Beauty' Corrupted The Kids

Awesome article.

My sentiments exactly.

Drunk Horse - In Tongues

Adult Situations was actually their third album. This is the best album so far this year.

Bulldog Bash bill changes

Rumour is, Towers Of London were gonna have their collective ass whupped by a bunch of hell's angels cuz they knocked over some Harley's at Download. Hence, they've pulled out. Pussies.
