Hey, it's one of your admins that brought up the genre name and used it as a stick to beat people with.
And the writer that used it several times, in a derogatory manner. Seems like he's come up with the opening and finishing lines and tried to just bulk out a review from there.
I was (originally) just trying to voice an opinion on the album.
He's incorrect in calling in chillwave.
It's certainly laid back and stuff, but it's not wimpy one kid in a bedroom blogosphere gubbins.
Yeah, I was going to point out that bigpicture and pitchfork are quite happy to have an entire set on one page.
I'd love to have pictures that large on here as well, but obviously it doesn't fit into the current layout at all. The flickr lightbox is pretty nifty, but when that sort of thing goes wrong it's terrible, like with facebook.
I think thumbnails could work. Just checked what other sites do and the way msn do thumbnail picture browsing is pretty shit. The Guardian's way (http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/gallery/2011/sep/09/bestival-2011-in-pictures#/?picture=378801589&index=0 ) is a nice flash thing. And The Telegraph get around using flash by stripping down the website for 'In Pictures' articles, so there's not scrolling needed ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturepicturegalleries/8746493/PJ-Harvey-wins-the-prestigious-Mercury-Prize-for-a-second-time.html?image=10 )
Either get a fancy flash viewer or just have all of the photos on one page
on the In Photos section. It's so annoying to have to click and waiting for the whole page to reload and then have to scroll down, especially when there are pictures from festivals (which I prefer, as there are only a couple of each act) and it's about 60-odd pages. I know more clicks = more money, but I haven't clicked on an In Photos article in ages because of this.
TUSK festival probably deserves a shout,
considering how amazing it looks.
One of the best albums so far this year.
I just hope i don't over-play it now so that I'm a bit bored of it by summer, when it'll be perfect.
the flaming lips
and their bundles of fun.
couldn't agree more,
the amount of underwhelming tracks on this album is really disappointing, especially as i got the Let Go/My Way single beforehand, which got me really excited about the album.
a) The United Kingdom
bodacious.
b) Napoleon III
sir.
b) Robert Wadlow
yes!
a) yes!
ofcourse!
b) It’s Jo & Danny
c&p for accuracy, cheers.
Guess? :D
I was there, it was at the Paradiso...
Nah, it's the Paradiso
in the second room upstairs.
I wonder if they'll include the 5 minute interlude because of the drummer destroying his bass pedal, which was filled with such inspired chants as "p2p, p2p!" "proxy servers!" and "bit torrent!", probably not...
POPULAR STUFF IN BEING POPULAR SHOCKER!
Really, what do you expect?
haha
just actually read the article :/
Ah oh right,
i misinterpreted his post as meaning this weekend, hence the confusion, cheers :)
Eh?
when/where are Dananananakroyd in Sheffield?
Please be somewhere good in Sheffield
If it is i may have to return prematurely, what with Sabrepulse playing the night before as well.
When is it ever billed as the new band tent?
Echo & the Bunnymen played it like 3 years ago for example. As well as Animal Collective in recent years, it's just the smallest tent.
Dont think i'll bother with summercase now,
might just have a holiday in Barcelona instead.
guh
There are more places than just London in this country :(
it'd be kinda silly for them to not report it non?
Any transcriptions of the interview? Or places to listen to it again?
I'd box
a collection of sedimentary rocks.
next time
get action photos of bomberman madness!
awesome lineup
cant go though, but still, LooseGoose, a bird with few morales.
is that penultimate paragraph
supposed to sound like it's written by an illiterate foreigner and i'm just missing the joke?
that'll show them bastards!
Who do they think they are? Putting on a lineup consistent with the majority of their listeners' tastes, and for free as well!
No
If it wasnt for touts, it'd be unlikely that the event would sell out entirely. Heck, 3 years ago you could buy tickets on the door for Reading/Leeds, but now with toutmania it sells out in 2 hours.
it's the 2 hours of pressing refresh
that just makes it for me, once you've got that it doesnt matter what bands you have.
We gonna rock down to
Electric Avenue!
Manchester
cheers big ears.
a week ago
i'd be all over that Manchester date, but after hearing Walk it Off i'm not so sure...
Isn't
playing 2,000+ Sheffield academy a bit of step up from playing Manchester Academy 3? Seems a bit odd.
NOOOOO
I've just realised that their Leeds date clashes with Broken Social Scene playing in Sheffield :(
