A little cringeworthy? That's like saying Hitler was naughty!

...gamecat means "is anyone even left in the band anymore?"

The Brits are a big bag of Aids.

...for a fine record. This baby grabs you at "Radio Nowhere" and doesn't let go. Superb stuff!

The video is fucking rubbish. That needed to be said twice, I feel.

It's just over been four years since My Vitriol ended a three year tour (in 2002) and Som Wardner put the band on hiatus.

...is easily the best album Reznor's released since The Downward Spiral. It's also the closest he's come to making industrial music. The irony is, that if NIN's "new direction" proves popular, it may help the likes of Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, KMFDM and Front 242 and the like shift some units from their back catalogues.

A Weekend In The City was patchy. The music's fantastic throughout, but Jesus, there are some Godawful lyrics on there.

They're on permanent hiatus while Jon sits by the pool in Australia.

This is a top tune! I'll grant you that the album isn't particularly strong, but this is a top tune!

"positively wreaked of Burroughs, Lynch, Burgess and, eh... Camden Market"

is absolutely spot on about Outside. Spot. On.

is a quality single. I'm well excited for the album release.

TLSM on Warp?

...it's fantastic!

In as much as "doing the D 'n B thing" is like saying Picasso occasionally used the colour blue in a couple of his paintings.

This stuff is mint!!

... but the sound overall is Tobin's.

Yes you do. And you have know idea how badly...

... that this album is the best one that Isis has released.

Eh?

aren't best ofs aimed at getting new fans, rather than satisfying old ones?

...is one of the finest music reviews I've ever read. You've completely captured everything I've ever throught about this band. Spot on!

...the fact that some bands are great at singles, but their albums contain tons of filler. The Cult is a great example of this - the only album of their you ever need is Pure Cult as it has all their best on it, minus the rubbish.

...the drumming, like, the only reason to listen to The Mars Volta to begin with?

corrected.

About Tong being rhythm in later era Verve.
And Jones being the bassist.
And McCabe being the reason the Verve were ever any good anyway.

hyuk! hyuk!

Stanier is a fantastic drummer, no arguments there, but it's innacurate to say he carried the entire weight of the band alone. It's not like Stanier would've come up with a couple of bog-standard session musicians. Hamilton's a great guitarist, and Bogdan is a fantastic bassist, and both of them made Helmet every bit as great as Stanier did.

...worth pointing out that Henry Bogdan is one of the best bassists in metal EVER!

... what happened with this lot - I was recently listening to the demo material Page Hamilton recorded when he was fronting a band called Gandhi, and even that was better than this.

...Falco with hair! He looks like Wolverine!

go to the pub with you, Mike!

No it wasn't. It is rubbish. As is Boys Will Be Boys.

Ta for that.

Buy Mclusky Do Dallas. Everyone should own Mclusky Do Dallas.

Too Pure's site says the expanded version is out on March 20th.

...about this, is this is exactly the sort of thing Blur used to get up to when they were younger. They used to slag off other bands and start feuds all the time. Maybe they don't need the publicity as much anymore.

£11.99 for a limited edition 3-cd set? Bargain!

Top tune, this.

The kid actually said "LOL" on public transport. It's worse than I thought...
