by the way. Just picked it up and given it a blast. First song is quite a departure, and very good.

what I thought when listening to it, albeit two or three times. I am planning to listen more, so haven't given up on it completely.

Could anyone give pointers as to which modern bands sound like them?

Progress Reform was awesome. Lessons... was just terrible, and what with the sound clipping and all made it basically un-listenable to me

Nothing to see here - please move along

Anyway.

I meant in terms of sales - it feels that Frames barely registered anywhere, certainly didn't get a review on Dis for example.

I'm an Oceansize fan and hopefully they'll turn up in Preston at some point. Frames, for me, was a missed opportunity with overlong and over intricate songs, and a bit of a step back IMO.

and just caught the Monsters Of Folk single - very catchy

affect Oceansize, who, feel free to correct, are on a downward slide.

but a touch of disrespect, which me no like.

What with this and me not recognising *any* album reviews means is that DIS is becoming less relevant to me nowadays. Shame!

with DIS at the moment. They seem to hate every new thing I've loved.

Are you on crack?

every Bluetones album. Very consistent band.

/gets coat

was RA&C best album? Really? Better than Cold Roses?

Wow.

Cardinology was so poor. If I could just get an album half as good as Cold Roses I'd die a happy man.

Love the cover. Well worth a tenner.

this isn't out for a month. Why tease me with this review? Why?

M.Ward has always reminded me of a more restrained Bright Eyes - am I right? Must pick up some of his work...

and the album is currently at £12.98 at sendit...

my two year old whines less than you.

Metallica happens to be popular. Get over it.

in shame Metallica and Glasvegas

Foggyatlas has spoken

they didn't put as much attention on the mixing of the album. The sound quality is awful - clipping abounds everywhere.

A White Stripes album with a different backing band. Damn shame - I loved the first album.

Why didn't the other members of the band lay down the justice stick on White when they were recording? Tsk.

please point out these bands half their age playing it better?

Lovely song that.

Pfff

It appears..

Ignore the first post - Elbow are ace.

Look forward to it.

Cassadaga is a great album.

Thanks ;-)

I normally use livearchive.org but their site is as creaky as a very creaky thing.

Hopefully the gig will turn up at archive.org at some point.

/already has too many Ryan Adams live albums

And the production is sweet BUT they're lacking the tunes on this LP. I like it, don't get me wrong, but the songs blur and sound too similar to each other.

I also wish some of the heaviness of Efflorese and (parts of) Everyone Into Position remained - the whole album seems stuck in one gear.

(and I agree about them being underrated)

Ryan Adams got a Merit Award.

Don't know whether that's a good thing or not...

it's amazing the juxtaposition in quality of reviews on DIS - take the review of the Foo Fighters for instance.

a review is a review, not a subjective rant.

Useless...

get off the fence.

prevents you buying an album?

belle and who?

get off the fence.

What an awful review.

Cunty Cunty Pissflaps is a great little phrase to utter during job interviews or when meeting/greeting Royalty/The polic.

...to see Chris Coleman has work after being sacked by Fulham..

as a terrible album. Absolutely awful (although I admit Leaving New York is a fine song).

They'll never do another Automatic but I'm sure they have another New Adventures in Hi-fi in 'em.
