I HATE YOU

DEAR DiS,

WHERE HAS IMAGINARY LANDSCAPE GENERATOR GONE?

YOURS SINCERE
~

and the presenter pronounced it

Oh - nay - da

so so much

grins bezoomy

Got the album today, very glad I did now, this is the kind of imaginary horror soundtrack I've been dreaming of for years, incredible!

only Metronomy interest me (and possibly Chrome Hoof).

Is the Dot to Dot line-up getting worse year by year as the festival gets bigger?

I don't doubt as the line-up fills out there will be more that I'll like, but I'm not feeling the overwhelming excitement to get tickets to this like I have the previous years... :(

false fire alert to make gig even vaguely memorable shocker

WHY IS THIS ALBUM SO BORING?

was unlistenable noise, and not in the way I enjoy...

But I welcome this news! Deerhoof were more dynamic live with a fourth person (and Chris Cohen had brought some enjoyable pop sensibilities), I'll be very interested to see where their new album takes them.

is easily the most listened to cd in my collection from the last two, two and a half years, so fucking good.

I enjoyed that more than LP, mind, (it just flows better) but they continue to get better and better live, roll on April!

And I was being interviewed, I would not let some music exec tell me when I had to finish up on the phone...

Seen some great bands and generally had a great time, but they better sort out the problems regarding the late night line-ups this year.

Last year, there were only two venues open after 10/11pm, both with small capacities, and to queue in the rain for two hours to try and see Surkin/Erol Alkan only to be rejected entry (because there was no-one watching queues and the amount of fuckers just jumping in front of us so we never got anywhere in the queue) was a kick in the teeth.

If you're going to sell that many tickets, have enough venues open late to hold all those people!

and what does he do on it?

If I ask that, will I get a punch?

Another DiSer and myself are off to interview these later for radio- we've never interviewed anyone in our life, any tips? Will they respond better to provocative questions or generic Q&A fare? Relaxed informal chats or rigid set o' questions? Help!

a pub full of long distance haulage drivers are feeling extremely disappointed.

It's all a bit soft, isn't it? Esp. compared to the 'demo' version. Lacks sharp edges, well-defined sounds. And the saxophone? Don't get me started on the bloody saxophone. If the rest of the album sounds as weak as this version of Balloons, I'll be sad :(

are one of my favourite bands, but...

What's going on with this video? (or Plaster Casts of Everything, for that matter?)

Drum's Not Bread (all of it), the videos to We Fenced Other Gardens With The Bones Of Our Own, There's Always Room On A Broom, so much better...

Good song though, love the beats!

won't embed the player onto DiS pages for some reason?

I watched this video on their myspace though, absolutely love it.

never show me for me...?

That E.P was commercially released... I've got a copy right next to me now. It was limited edition though, you had to order it as soon as it came out really. From their Canadian labels website, if I remember correctly.

The E.P better than the new L.P, if you ask me... the track order was perfect, with Lovely Allen opening proceedings and Frenchy's closing. The additional tracks on L.P aren't as good really... and overall, LP isn't half as exciting, as chaotic, as rhythmically dense as their first (almost perfect) album. Even the live tracks they put out for free before the E.P (and the untitled New Canada Music tracks) are better than the new tracks on L.P...

I love Holy Fuck, seen them a good few times too... but I feel 7 out of 10 is fair for this release... their first album would get a 10/10 personally, and the E.P is a good 8 or 9.

playing the Barfly in Glasgow next week?

Shame about this though, I was hoping to go.

would get you a lot of coke these days...

Cannot WAIT for this album, had their first and the E.P for an age and still listen to them both all the time.

And they are playing OPTIMO too!!

Best news I've heard since they supported Deerhoof (my other favourite band) in Glasgow (the grimy goddess, the wild west, the greatest, you can take your 'London' and shove it up your arse).

"Friend Opportunity is released in January. It'll probably be good."

It IS good. Very good. Very very good.
If the Runners Four was the overlong and slightly bloated, but utterly fantastic at times schizo-rock-pop-noise masterpiece, Friend Opportunity is its leaner, tighter, more magical sibling- stronger, more inventive, creative, colourful*. And yet, the best by this band is still to come...

(* remind me never to write crap descriptions again)

but I work in a record shop,
and when ever I walk past this cover,
all monsterous pussy peering malevolently
over metropolis, I can't help but laugh to myself...

It's been far too long since Louden Up Now, and with Out-Hud sadly broken up, I was kinda hoping this would come out before christmas. Saw !!! in Oxford over the summer though, mfckn euphoric, and this news is good, thanks! Hooray!
