You're hilarious dude!

A friend has heard some of this record and says it sounds like some sort of C86 band but with the extremely lame vocals still standing strong.

I've never felt more embarrassed for a band than when I saw this lot support The Sonics a few months ago. I was genuinely cringing through most of it.

That said, he shits all over my fantasy football team.

Henning something?

And yes, I have heard the whole record.

but I do enjoy these tour diaries.

Never really got into World of Twist, but Earl Brutus were a brilliant band. x

and my first post was most certainly sarcastic, but there is no excuse for throwing shit at bands.

Would you?

that I just forgot to put in. It sounds nothing like it did in my head. Balls to this.

I haven't laughed at a news story in a very long time. God bless you, Smith.

But yes, I am still ever so slightly bitter.

I'm still cringing.

I did sound for these guys at a gig a couple of years back. They sounded like lairy sub-libertines bullshit, and weren't even that good at it. Their rise to fame to makes absolutely no sense to me.

Duh.

what you just said it's absolute bollocks. And I think you're well aware of it.

songs about people living in small houses/flats/council houses/any place that's yknow, a bit poor.

I'm still none the wiser.

I was so tempted but I'm so skint.

I do love the Mr Show so much.

Regardless of how much this band is "progressing," I don't understand how anyone could review this so averagely. It's brilliantly written, smart, and brings a shit-eating grin to my face every I hear it.

Praise the lord.

This band really are horrible. The world doesn't need more than one Lostprophets.

My girlfriend used to hang out with Neil's Children a little bit for some reason. I wish I'd have mentioned the feeding coke to a hamster incident, but it's a hard thing to slip into a conversation. They are, incidentally, not a very good band.

I thought I was going to DISPISE them, but actually ended up quite enjoying them. 90 second songs, a couple of old covers, pretty engaging frontman. It's vaudeville, it's stupid, it'll be fun for the next month, but they're nowhere near the antichrists that they get made out to be on here.

Plus, they had a Monks sticker on their keyboard. Respect.

do they not just sound like the Lostprophets with some added metal bits and some kerrazy synths?

Just this morning I was lying in my bed thinking "I wonder what DFA1979 are up to, I quite liked a couple of their songs."

Not a huge loss though, and there's always MSTRKRFT are pretty ace-o.

Will probably like them more when something is recorded 'properly.'

How different does Falco look though?!

Erm, according to nme.com their next single is called 'In The Morning.'

Not that I care or anything, of course...

Imagine switching on VH1 and finding that "Officer Friendly's little boy's got a mohawk / And he knows just where we're coming from" was at #1.

Was there actually a point to this feature? DiS is getting very crap-comedy orientated recently.

I think the album is, unexpectedly, very good.

That picture is of a teenage band from Bury St. Edmunds who used to be called Black Mountain, but then changed it to The Black Mountains after the real Black Mountain got popular.

Like, what?!

It really is, isn't it?!

They're a decent band, but I much prefer the idea of them, and splitting up now is the icing on the cake.

If I was wearing a hat, I would take it off to them.

If more bands were as bad-ass as Mclusky the world would be a much, much better place.

The Arctic Monkeys hadn't even released their album, had they? For them to headline would have seemed ridiculous, more so than it already is.

It's the same thing really, ain't it?

it's also the sign-language symbol for vagina.

We weren't talking about Jay-Z (or Diamond Dallas Page, for that matter), at the time, so I presume they were telling the truth.

Although, admittedly, I'm not sign-language expert...
