i'll listen out for you! You're the one who looks like Richard Ashcroft? ;-)

yea, i'm sure i commented on this article before as i recall how much annoyed me when i just re-read it.

Clearly written by a moralistic idiot. And anyway i don't see why the Brain Clough comparsion was made either.

That could work, yes. Or 'it could be argued', or 'in my opinion'.

I was just gonna say that the Astoria is one of London's top venues...

irritate*

is there a William Blake theme? Explain. I know Billy Bragg had an album called William Bloke, but he's really started to irrate me the past few years.

yea, i meant Subway City.

Although i've been there a few times and know Birmingham well, i actually have no idea where it is!

Coventry is about near enough for me.

You should go to Rock Box in Camberly, mate. Probably my favourite shop in the world ever.

haha. Very funny sir!

no

I think it should chart, yes. Obviously The Charts are pretty much meaningless but MD have worked hard to be a decent fanbase. I'll tune in to see if they make it.

No Portsmouth show for Quashie? Judas...;-)

this is amazing news!!!!

Good review by the way. I like the Northern Uproar ref. I was thinking pretty much the same cos i think they'll fade away just like These Animal Men and S*M*A*S*H

well it hasn't been used before so i spose it is 'original' yes

they play a different 'love' song everyday as part of the Lunchtime Lovers feature. It was great to hear it!

i don't like this band. Manc wannabes i say

oh, mind your language!

go away you pikey

i agree.

So this Jared has a first degree, eh? Big fucking deal!

He comes across as a tad bitter. And he has, dare i say, made himself look a bit silly.

Perth?

well this very true. I have to say i have suffered from this syndrome too in the past. But in many cases the bands 'sell-out' to become famous and so become rubbish

oh yea! that was pretty obvious wasn't it?

i thought they were from Wolverhampton not Teeside?

Firstly, i don't know whether this band are any good or not. But i have to say they sort of had it coming by signing to a major label who can't afford to sit and see a band progressive cos they need instant sales. recently it has been a shame to see Kinesis dropped from their label when clearly all they have to potential to carry on improving

i like the single - heard it on Jo wiley's show.
I'll reserve judgemnet for now tho...

agree with you there. Plus Reuben are far prettier so i imagine they'll go on to sell more records

Gonna be very cool seeing thisGirl AND Colour of Fire. Two of the best British guitar bands at present. Can't wait.
