Article was a load of shite...
Punk was and is about giving voice to the voiceless, which is where it can be compared with hiphop (see Bazooka_Joe's comment on the democratising force of punk's DIY ethic - absolutely bang on). However, there remain some sectors of society who would be better off kept silent. Namely, Dom Passantino.
For me, M.I.A and Diplo are the best examples of a surviving punk ethic, in the way that they give voice to marginalised peoples around the world.

ABSO-FUCKING-MAZING!
OH GOD.
I fucking love Devo. But I'm always apprehensive about going to see re-formed bands. Sometimes they seem a bit like a tribute to themselves and it's just embarrassing. Dead Kennedys. Stooges. All Saints. It doesn't always work.
I LIVE IN MORECAMBE...
I could literally walk there from my house. And yet I'm at uni in Norwich at the moment. Otherwise, I'd be there like a shot, just for the craic. CURSE YOU GOD, FOR MAKING ME THIS WAY!
And I went to primary school with Kriss Foster. Only back then he used the more traditional moniker "Chris". I think the K came about when he started experimenting with facial hair and working in Cafe Nero.

Michael Ball?! HA!
What would make this story slightly more perfect would be the addition of Cliff Richard in his Heathcliff costume, with a small choirboy on a leash. I'd like that.
"diseased Leo Sayer"
- I hadn't read that! Utterly, UTTERLY brilliant!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAA! Etc.
"Those bloody Greeks! Coming over here, taking our jobs and our women! THEY INVENTED GAYNESS!"
Apart from the religion of gayism, that is. In which case, COME WORSHIP.

Crüe singer tears calf in concert fall
Neil is a fucking cock who should be dead by rights.
It was he who killed Razzle from Hanoi Rocks in that car crash and got off scot free. Razzle also happens to be my friend's uncle. But not anymore!
I was actually hoping that when it said "tears calf" it would have something to do with a baby cow, so at least I might have the pleasure of seeing Neil eaten alive by militant animal rights activists..........
No justice is there!

Head girls heart jazz: Cullum goes to school
I recently left one such of these 400 girls' school things.
I even applied to be head girl but didn't get it because of my 'controversial politics'. And big gob. Hear my bile:
THIS IS FUCKING DISGUSTING. THIS MAKES ME FEEL PHYSICALLY SICK TO MY STOMACH. It really does. This must surely be the most cynical marketing ploy in the entire history of greedy-twattery.
What really gets me is how sanitised and pedestrian C****m and his pissy excuse for music are. There is not even the merest pretence of new innovation or imagination. It is vanilla-flavoured Volvo-music and it angers me that already [major label] record companies are targeting specific consumer groups (especially the young! For fuck's sake!) with this regurgitated wank and conditioning them to be docile, equally unimaginative consumers.
For pity's sake BRING BACK HANGING! Just this once!

Antony & The Johnsons take Mercury prize
Antony is British you ignoramus.
How atrocious was it when That Wanker From The NME (I refuse to say his name) got up and started chuffing about Antony's brilliance when he's been brownnosing the likes of My Chemical Romance and Hard Fi.... Oooh don't get me started Chesney.... Ooh me angina!
Anyway well done Antony for giving everyone the kick up the arse they deserve!

"Get off the sidewalk, beyatch" - Snoop's skate range
Did you hear the one about a multinational sports corporation replicating an anti-capitalist punk band's album-art to advertise their skate stuff?
Yep. Minor Threat sued Nike Skate over it, just recently. AND WON!! HOORAH!!
I wonder if this is all going to end in the same way in which P-Diddy was shown up after the revelation that his Sean John range was made by kids in sweatshops in the Third World... That wouldn't be very pimp, for rizzle ma schnitzel.

Re: MTV announces Video Music Awards nominees
Philosophical comment re: Dana International (Israeli transsexual Eurovision Winner circa 1997)
- She would really fuck up MTV's neat and tidy Best Male and Female catgeories. Bigots!

MTV announces Video Music Awards nominees
Mariah Carey's We Belong Together nominated for best RnB video. Ha. It's just her rolliing around on a bed, isn't it?! Perhaps I missed some kind of artistic symbolism or underlying existential meaning but I thought it was shit.
MTV get off the air indeed.

Ikara Colt - "Oh, it's all nonsense..."
God I love Ikara Colt and mourn them to this day. But I'm so proud and pleased that they stuck to their word and did disband. And I think that this [incredible] article goes to show what integral part of the band Dom was; they couldn't have gone on without him.
Goodnight and G*d bless, Ikara <3 <3 <3 The one true "twat-filter".

Whachuu talkin' bout fool?
Soulwax are pant-soilingly amazing live - however the recent album, admittedly, was a little patchy. Still better than all this "urch-rock" shoite - they look as though they crawled out from beneath a rock, and sound like it too. Unlike tha 'Wax.

More music, less crime - the Lords get logical
"The Baroness said that there were fewer crimes committed at the Glastonbury Festival in 2004 than there were in the small city of Bath over the same time frame."
Bath is actually, I take it, rather a large city. So is she trying to imply that because people camp out all weekend and watch similarly unwashed youths with guitars playing jumping-up-and-down music (except in the folk tent that is...snigger) that we are actually expected to commit crimes?!!
Nice one, Baroness. Yet again the wealthy, grey WASPs in politics have failed spectacularly to prove they are "down wid tha kids."

Destiny's Child split
My. Life. Is. Over.
I think it was fairly obvious by the way that their tour was sponsored by McDonald's that they were milking that well-flogged dead horse for all it was worth.

Wilson to SMiLE again this summer
I saw a Beach Boys biopic on Channel 5 the other day. Wilson was played by a v. hairy David Arquette. I think. It was mildly pant-wetting.
Smooth Criminal? MJ Found NOT Guilty
*Sniff sniff!
I SMELL A WHITEWASH.
Or should that be a "blackwash?"
Or a "impetigo-wash"? (Is impetigo the skin condition he claims to have, or is it just that he is clinically insane?)
Perhaps he is a human chameleon. Probably.

Wish You Were Here? Pink Floyd reform for Live 8
I'd be even more impressed if Tony Blair's former band Ugly Rumours reformed for Live 8.

Re: US troops form rap troupe
I think Jello Biafra is a bit of a prophet.
Re: US troops form rap troupe
I for one think this is DISGUSTING.
It is BLATANTLY ripping-off Eminen's track 'Soldier.' HE USED TO LIVE IN A TRAILER GODDAMIT! HE HAD A KID! HE DABBLED IN ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES! HE was the ORIGINAL soldier!
4th25 are just WANNABES - AIN'T-NEVER-GONNABES! They should now go back to taking photos of naked Iraqis. Word.

Re: Unsigned acts offered chance to play Wireless
Can't they book Selfish Cunt instead?
Ross named most important radio personality
KILL ZANE LOWE.
Or at least replace him with Steven Hawking. Who would be much more listenable.
THAT is all.
