was the fact that the singles like Q and A were so catchy yet therest of the album was quite odd yet had so much longevity - not the kind of thing you get bored of after 10 listens.

I didn't get this with puzzle, but I'm not prepared to have a squabblr over this as clearly Biffy are alot of things to alot of people as they have gained more fans and climbed the ranks with each album.

I think those that argue that people don't like them simply for getting big with Puzzle are looking over the fact they sold out the London Astoria off the back of Infinity Land and I can't remember the fans bitching then.

KOL had tons of hype on album one, what with Molly's Chambers and all this garage rock movement.

Agreed on Arctic Monkeys, Dancefloor just holds no appeal at to me, and I can see the appeal of alot of mainstream songs even if it's not my cuppa.

Sorry, this has been said but I do want to re-iterate.

Vertigo of Bliss is unique, inventive and just seemed to come completely out of the blue. Oh, and I think the lyrics on this album are really innovative too.

Puzzle had a few good songs and in fairness some of them do come accross better live than on record but didn't make me want to listen to it over and over again like VOB.

some tres bien songs on that

On the same night as Kill Kenada perhaps?

Or am i way off the mark?

Would be nice

when none of your songs had anything interesting about them.

i was never really a libs fan but i actually liked some Babyshambles songs. DPT, however, were just so dull!

anyone?

in as much as they are 11 days apart and at different venues. To be fair though, it does give a date to North London and a date to South London - it's a big city after all!

Bloody big venues on this tour too!

Now they seemt to have vanished off the face of the earth. It was only by chance i saw this review.

Highly Evolved wasn't bad, it just didn't deserve all the praise that was thrown at it.

Ok, they're a very successful rock band now.

Nothing against the automatic though. It'll be interesting to see what Paul Mullen can bring.

is that the people who got into them via Puzzle won't get to hear the amazing album tracks like bodies in flight, convex concave and some kind of wizard to name but a few.

Yes, he was justified in being annoyed but IMO he did go a bit bonkers when he could have let it pass or just said one witty comment rather than a whole load of verbal abuse.

If the chap did try and pull her dress down then that is completely unaceptable, obviously, and i can understand her frustration.

not this and

but as far as i can see this and have an enormously negative outlook on life. Especially with all this people=shit nonsense. Like i say, life isn't all sunshine, i just think don't think it's as grim as the paint it out to be.

Doubtless i'll get torn apart for making this comment.

I'm suprised they never recieved the commercial success they deserve, especially given all their hard work.

but would love to see the next album be even wierder than anything they've ever done. I mean they're pretty big now. be interesting to see how the people who got into them through puzzle would react.

Like i say, Puzzle is a good album, but i think the songs sound better live than on record.

But the Daily Mail are fuckers so anything that causes them grief is good. I never read the article in which they slated emo but from what ihear it was enormously ill founded so fuck 'em.

They could do a Myvitriol - as they released between the lines with all the rarities and b-sides.

That would be a bit different.

I mean

Kind of like MV's between the lines. People scream of cash in when this happens but it's great to have it all on one disk rather than but all the singles.

But it will be interesting to see how they fair on album 2 after having the whole NME hype machine thing. time will tell.

As mentioned above came across as a nice bloke when he was on Top Gear at the end of last year.

IMO.

then we'll see how bands with this launch pad of hype really do.

And he said that 'we can do anything we wanted' meaning that they don't feel compelled to write silent alarm songs for the rest of their musical career. Musicians are allowed to try different things aren't they? plus they're better than any ten a penny tight jeans (loved by NME) indie band.

who will Support?

is merely a word and is open to interpretation- (be it positive or negative). RHCP have used, but do not own this word and therefore should fuck right off and stop being so egotistic and greedy.

for Print is dead was pretty good, it could work.

Sadly this kind of thing is good exposure for shit bands who dont have the songs to make them stand out.

They've been gigging for ages, supporting bands both good and bad.

Wicked band nonetheless.

At the ICA. anyone remember? good gig

but remain positive as they have left a good looking corpse in They Came From the Sun. Look at all the other british bands who released good albums then turned sour (naming no names). It has to be said that milo were one of the most innovative and interesting (not to mention amazing live) bands of the past few years. Ignoto was criminally underrated, and it was a shame that the more accessible They Came From the Sun didn't take them as far as they deserved.

there was nothing on their website announcing they were to support sparta i'm sure. they did however cancel their own headline show this week.

which is probably why they played a sold out gig at the koko back in november, and a blinding gig it was. Its so good to see them back as they are so infinetly more interesting than al the crap trendy indie or emo that seems to be so prevalent of late.

one of the best things about all of milo's output is how well the songs work live. the new stuff sounded massive when i saw them supporting shikari recently. Ignoto was so overlooked in my opinion. be interesting to see if this album leads to more commercial success.

didn't the boxer rebellion have a song with this title? just reminds me of when i saw them supporting biffy back in '04.

from wolverhampton?

really is the most sad of rock n roll cliches.

they have got two good strong albums behind 'em and are real good live. best of luck to them with the album.

is a big venue for an unsigned band to play isn't it. good on 'em tho.

is it just me or are bands taking more supports out nowadays. i can remember when it used to be just one support then a nice long headline set.

or does all angels sound a bit 2 much like all saints? remember them?

Hope he makes a speedy recovery.

what was it called, and how good is it? i heard one TS song and i quite liked it so i would like to hear the album in full.
