profit PER SHOW

take for example:

metallica are donating a guitar.
according to a thing i read in Q their annual summer stadium tour has a net profit that goes into five or six figures.

they could pay his bills and buy his house back without even noticing

i like this

NO MISFITS

NO FUCKING MISFITS

awful

i've already seen them

go me

i haven't heard the whole thing yet

but the track that was put out as a preview from this just felt a bit like a Conqueror off cut.

I only really started paying Jesu proper attention this summer and the leaps through Jesu, Silver, Conqueror and Infinity were fantastic. Each really distinct, yet recognisably Jesu, and all astonishing good at what they were supposed to do.

This one, based on that track, felt like treading water.

i can sort of understand where you're coming from with the ending

being such a departure from the rest of what goes on.
i think that both are good songs, perhaps tightening up the album could mean having only one of them, but i quite like the way it goes.

pretty much sums up how i feel about this band in general

only i don't feel the need to feel like i should like them because they're trendy at the moment

my first reaction to hearing this the other day

was that it reminded me of Placebo without being able to put my finger on why

john bush sang on sound of white noise

but belladonna-era albums still had some classic songs on them

buddyhead? what year is this?

it feels like they've gone too far this time

it's ended up bloated and ridiculous (even for them)

but at least it's not just plain cack like the last one

this is pretty much what i thought it would be like

a refinement of some of his old ideas but nothing really *new*.
It's disappointing because he's proven in the past that he can turn out a good lyric and a catchy song but he seems too settled, comfortable and safe, it's been getting blander and less affecting ever since he recruited his band.

if this is arranged chronilogically

then the first disc will probably be better than any of their actual albums

Crying Lightning is the first Arctic Monkeys song to really prick my ears

I might actually invest in this album since it appears they've abandoned the laddy sound of old

they're better than tubelord like

they even sound like their own band

shame boro's such an awkward trek from mine

john bush was the third anthrax singer

after belladonna and neil turbin

he is the best though

still mega-gutted that the newcastle show got pulled

even if it was never ten hundred percent confirmed

why not post photos of some actual DiS friendly acts?

there was plenty of them at the festival

they were due to play a lot more UK dates

someone i know had it all sorted with their management, venue booked and everything and then they pulled half the dates.

real shame, i'm not sure if i can afford to travel to see them

I really liked it on the first three or four plays

but apart from small few songs most of it got really old really fast.
The rocking up of Jarvis' songs has made them seem more disposable and less interesting.
I think after a few weeks I probably prefer the first one.

i still can't decide if i can dare to listen to it

i want it to be brilliant but i'm afraid i might want it too much and will only be disappointed

:'D

i think the production is better than blood mountain

they've got some atmosphere back

Hun Joro

or whatever it's called is possibly my favourite Sigur Ros song

the whole album is full of huge scary creepy moments but this is The One

brilliant

blood mountain was comparatively poor compared to the first two but this one is so huge and absorbing it's scored a place for me as arguably their best and most complete album.

everyones arguing about how prominent their influences are

but ignoring the way that this is as bad as they always were

ok computer was the first thing to come to mind

when i saw this article

hopefully the time will fly by

i'm really looking forward to this album, the songs i've already heard him playing live from it are wonderful

am i the only one

still banging his head about their name
