The original quote was “A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab? ...

My bad. But, yes, have a listen, I think it's really strong.

of the year so far.

so, there you go Dom.

reference I've heard to ROnnie Jepson in three hours. Amazing.

i saw all year incidentally. great feature

i stood on the right near the front and then at the back to see if it was any better. in the first instance it sounded like it was going right past me, when i went to the back it barely reached. i don;t think the flu helped either.

i was mainly dying of flu though, so was doing my best to watch the band. I did see a chap getting manhandled out of the building for lighting a ciggy though...

NB Interpol are on the radio AS I TYPE.

I was going to do Holy Fuck, but I couldn't get to the venue in time for various reasons (mainly involving a fire alarm) and I don't think I could justify a review from the last two songs. Sorry! What I saw was ace mind.

really like it

sent me a nice Oyster card holder today. It says Well Deep on it in massive letters. It is well deep.

take back that Andrew WK comment!

* is reminded me of an ocean colour scene b-sides album

also, "commoners?" what do you mean by that?

ace times

glastonbury-schmlastonbury. see you there!

his remix of Rehab on in the office. I quite liked it. Good interview Mike.

is one of my favourite things of the year i think.

remix on kitsune maison 4 beats the pants out of the original if you're looking for schizoid indie buzz dance stomper

does sya that in the song - Bellingham quoting Perceval. But it may well be.

it's not clear that is it? I'll change it.

when he's shouting sometimes. only a wee bit anyway.

"look around..

everybody's 'avin it."

apparently.

i was just making the point that he's not massively versatile but he's very good at what he does.

if it makes everyone feel better I did dither between 7 and 8. i hate marking things out of ten for precisely this reason.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

i'm literally lost for words. Bruce doesn't sell Born In The Usa volumes anymore, but few do. He's got a bigger fanbase than most and one loyal enough to guarantee all of his records sell a few million.

Plus I imagine Sony are probably cribbing something from his phenomonally lucrative live shows.

I'm going for a little cry.

I should definitely kill myself because I don'tlike tenacous d.

you utter prick.

you're probably right regarding the excapism.

I didn't bemoan the fact that they, or at least Farris, went to public school - although at one point I might have done. Which is why I made the reference to my own schooling and to Newsnight.

The 'wotsisname' was in refernece to the fact that both his stage name and real name are commonly used, to the extend that I wasn't sure which one was which.

You're probably right regarding the excapism, but I do think they look daft - but I tried to make a point of not linking this to the music. I expected to hate the Horrors for all the reasons mentioned but when I listened to the single enjoyed it. It was the fact that many others have had the same reaction as me that it's worth putting these preconceptions aside.

i think the x is silent though. :)

ever.

everybody's 'avin' it!

about the new version of No Cars Go, but I listened to it as I was fallign asleep the other night and it's absolutely great - the drums sound turbo charged.

that they have THE WORST band name in the history of the world?

my fact checking cuz

I also read Laura Barton referring to The New Radicals' 'Secret Smile'. Hmm.

Notorious Hard-Fi killers. Shame.

probably have put some speech marks there.

that's me me laugh. quite loudly.

Pavement. In 2009. Hopefully.

Or else the Smiths, but thar's no gonna happen is it?

a true case of... (wait for it)... cat power

in the review. clever eh. eh?

a link!

there was a preview of a story about nazi rock bands.

the headline: "the vinyl solution"

yes!

= genius

are super

Ice Ice Baby.

I saw some goons with acoustic guitars covering this on Monday night. They then segued it into Under Pressure. It sounded like an aneurysm.

me of Yer Blues.

I did write about them too but The Man snipped it. Possibly cos of one of them conflict of interest thingys. Either that or it was crap.

want to kill the world. but yes seeing k.t.c.r live made things better.

but you can only skip in 5mins jolts and can't go backwards. which meant i had to listen to zane lowe for about 3 minutes to hear 'keep the car running'.

it still hurts.

innit
