so bored
of hyperbole on this site.
caopies and grapes
is by far my favourite song by emmy, glad to see it's finally getting a release!
a) the United Kingdom
fingers crossed...
if canopies =
canopies and grapes it has got to be one of her best tracks...
Not sure whether it is
just more of the same... the 'sound' is different, the relationship between gareth's and alek's vocals is different and the content is completely different.
EMMY THE GREAT
sadie is so right about here, i love it, and she is getting better and better. the live show is awesome with the full band!
great banter at reading too, "i woke up in some blokes tent on sunday morning, soon found out that my friends sold me for a gram of ketamine"
:)
yeah
my first reading, and i was amazed at the number of people who seemed not to enter the arena... or did so to see one track of some band in the NME tent, and then bugger off to sit somewhere around the main stage.
that's what i thought...
i didn't use it very much, but the site's layout was sweet and some of the playlists were awesome.
once again the RIAA closes down a harmless service, ignoring the fact that people will just go back to sending the actual tracks via megaupload/yousendit etc.
the drummer is from Harpenden not St. Albans!
:) hometown pride
that
got me as well...
some guy
next to me told him to steal all the umbrellas :)
also on the EP
is a live version recorded on Live Lounge, and a cover of Flakes by Florence and the Machine :)
and
the cds used to be good too
Artrocker...
...has gone downhill recently - the whole step to monthly was a bad plan.
In all, they have got rid of some of the fun writers, delia (^^^), art-hip-rock-hop or whatever it was, that stuff from LA etc
This has been replaced by huge numbers of (sometimes) worthy new artist highlights; artistically the whole thing is almost unreadable with the backgrounds they choose; and can you have more in your face 'branding' - the whole thing is taken over by CONVERSE JD and RED STRIPE!
Once upon a time, I would look forward to my regular two weekly supplement, a group of interesting bands on the covers, insightful single reviews that was just enough to keep me through to the next little chunk.
Now it is so bloated that half of the reviews have no relation to the actual single; live reviews are patchy; and the covered bands are ooold news.
Sorry Artrocker; I no longer love you :(
XEROX TEENS
A XEROX TEENS
...
plutonic
= platonic
:)
the displacements
are terrible. Some how they keep turning up supporting good bands :(
A
4&20
hypnotic
is the perfect way to describe him.
the real deal
is that Transgressive have a sweet deal going with Warner, and get to promote their artists on a larger scale, without sacrificing anything of the label.
They are still just an indie label - just now they also get VIP tickets to glasto...
hehe
"About how there's no point in trying to speak to the masses, because the masses know nothing."
yeah
cunts.
this
is really good.
really good.
like
everything from those seabuzzard people.
j wo's new track he played a tpuregroove was incroyable

excellent
review.
it was more personal on the barrier.
i cannot imagine how good they would have been at the Buffalo Bar.
x
A!
is the answer
i deserve it...
...for liking bloc party a lot.
and for seeing them 5 times this year.
i have all their songs too.
but you might as well give it to one of the people above me...
the dub remix
is alright, as is the b side...
Justice and MSTRKRFT
both better than this.
sorry the filler ruins an alright album.
Live
most certainly better than this re-recorded single - even so it is one of my favourite songs of last year let alone this year!
LCD...
then justice and bjork
Young Knives
New stuff is going to be awesome...
;=]
"Free...
for 18+"
Is it so hard to choose a venue where they let it be 16+ or even 14+??!
I love all these club nights DiS, artrocker etc. but they never let the kids in.
=[
Twins
FTW.
I think you are
just right in the review...I think that an intereseting live band has got their demos into a perfect album. Yet could there have been more??
Thats all I am wondering.
