...the clientele don’t have an XY chromosome between them...

What? Admittedly I don't come to DiS for cutting edge science reportage, but if you're going to drop phrases like this into your piece then the least you should do is have a basic understanding of what it means.

Because the alternative would be that you're just saying stuff to look clever, which would slightly undermine the thrust of your argument against the band you're trying to stitch up.

Oh, and if you do a complete 360, you end up facing the same direction as when you started. You're thinking of a 180.

But where

is "Island in the Sun"?

A pedant writes:

Strictly speaking, it's the third Rambo movie which is incorrectly named. In order:

First Blood
Rambo: First Blood Part 2
Rambo 3

I'm choosing to ignore the fourth for effect.

Ho-ooooooooooo!

Tygra was the balls. He was so cool, he didn't even bother to mention that he could turn himself invisible until the second series.

Fuck ringtone of the year.

Read that bit again about Mos Def being arrested for criticising his government. Yes, ARRESTED for performing a song.

That's just the sort of freedom and democracy we should be exporting to the Middle East!

Thanks.

Truly, you are the gift that keeps on giving.

Oooh, touchy.

Maybe you could lend me yours.

Huh?

"Luckily, this is the only song on the album to follow such a worrying trend."

Trends generally contain more than one item.

The BASTARDS.

Touring with Converge? Fucking Yanks get everything.

I fully expect to see a similar article

around the time of Richard Ashcroft's upcoming arena tour.

I know it's Page's band, but

Helmet's just not Helmet without John Stanier.

Not quite.

"This Scene Is Dead" is their best song by a mile, and hasn't been released at all. The album is patchy, though.

Yeah, but

I'd say this has the edge over Pelican due to the excellent drumming throughout. Pelican's drummer is awful.

Bam Thwok?

Come on, that was appalling!

That's because

Helmet are fan-fucking-tastic.

And the comfort, you won;t believe

'cos the topsheet is a dryweave!
Yeah!

I bet it wasn't as good as

that bit in The Fly where Seth Brundle snaps the guy's arm.

Surely the faintest of all praise.

It does.

Incessant?

Isn't this only the second time?

Wut?

The Sex Pistols aren't a punk band? Did I miss a meeting?

I had hopes

this would be about an Andrew Marr/Massive Attack collaboration.

Broke n English

is the worst band name I've ever heard.

huh?

"A few days pass until life sees me north of the river, at the Kentish Town Forum, experiencing the nu-metal tomes of those giants of their industry, KoÑ?n."

No wonder the gig was shit, if they were reading from large, scholarly books all night.

robocop vs The Orange Walk

I'd pay good money to see that. Especially vs the bastards who march past my house every fucking Saturday in June and July.

Scumbags.

Under 16?

By some considerable disatnce, surely. Aren't they both less than (or equal to) 13 or something?

Look at his face.

Just fucking look at it! Cunt.

Spot on.

Even though this album's pretty much relentless with the glitchy programmed beats, there's not as much excitement in it as there was in "The Fall Of Math". I'm quite disappointed with it.

On the other hand, I did buy the upcdownc album at the same time, which is fucking tremendous.

Re: Okereke concerned by non-essential press quest

Thankyou! I've been saying that for ages. Not necessarily on here, but there you go.

Jet on new album: "five times better than Get Born

For anyone who said they were infinitely shit, I'd like to point out that there exists a mathematical concept called transfinite numbers, where you can have numbers greater than infinity.

So, in theory, Jet can be proven to be shitter than infinitely shit.

Zane LOL: DJ told off for potty mouth

That man needs a DiS profile. Please can someone fix it so I can give the Zipper the zero bubbles out of five he so richly deserves?

Re: Beasties to release greatest hits

I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of the tracklisting on the greatest hits will have already been on Sounds of Science.

The Darkness return on a one-way ticket

I demand a 4 CD gatefold set is released, to allow all 40 of these undoubted works of genius to reach the ears of the deserving public.

Crüe singer tears calf in concert fall

Maybe if he wasn't so fat, his legs would be able to take the strain. Lucky he was wearing all that supportive lycra and spandex, eh?

This month's Q list: Beatles top poll of 'Best Bri

Is it true that Q is now edited by Jimmy Carr?

Re: Kanye West: "Bush doesn't care about black peo

Because they're too scared that people will stop buying their records/watching their films etc. I have a whole new respect for Kanye West after this (I still think Diamonds From Sierra Leone was shit, though).

"Get off the sidewalk, beyatch" - Snoop's skate ra

How can Bing Worthington Jr be Snoop's brother when Snoop's name is Calvin Broadus?

CD:UK's new recruits: Klass, Laverne and some othe

I like that Klass, on her first show, has to introduce the losers of the reality show she won. How d'you like them apples?

Maiden's egging - the backstage story

I want to know more about Johnny Depp's girly-man hands.

Re: Dimebag riff used in Nickelback song

Shot then hung. Or hung then shot? It's a tough call.

Re: Oceansize

Or even Can't Keep A Bad Man Down. I have a memory like a fucking goldfish.

Oceansize

I just got back from the Glasgow Barfly gig, which was tremendous.

Two of the new songs (The Charm Offensive and You Can't Keep A Good Man Down) didn't impress me as much as the other new material, but the fact that they played Breed Siamese left me a very happy camper.

Re: File-sharing Fracas part 22364368

Au contraire: it's a PENTAGRAM!

Re: The Rolling Stones ready 'Neo-con'

Knight of the British Empire? Looks rather clear cut to me.

Re: The Rolling Stones ready 'Neo-con'

It depends on the government, surely?

Attacking American imperialism isn't very credible when you accept an honour which celebrates British imperialism, does it?

Re: MTV announces Video Music Awards nominees

I detest that Gwen Stefani song. And why has Mr Brightside been nominated for anything? Isn't the video just them in a big semi-dark room? Not exactly Michel Gondry, is it?
