"When Did Your Heart Go Missing" - Rooney "I'm A Realist" - The Cribs "Morden" - Good Shoes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maztinho 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2007 I have the urge to download a song, but I can't remember the name of the band or the song. It was popular around `97 and samples The Imperial March as the starting lick and through out. It doesn't help that it was a total one hit wonder. HELP!

Copper Feel 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2007 Brian Wilson is playing in Bristol on September the 18th. Consider me as good as there. However: I only have the exceptional Pet Sounds in my record collection as far as Beach Boys albums go, what else should I get before the concert? (Murmuring Beast this question is aimed at you).

Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2007 The albums usually come in shots of two now - you must get Today/Summer Days and Summer Nights!!! two-fer and Sunflower/Surf's Up. These are not expensive from my experience in the UK - don't spend anything more than £10, I got them for a fiver. If you like them, get everything from the 60s. Buy Brian Wilson's SMILE if you can see it cheap - he'll play a bit from that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

justsoyouknow 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2007 Recently picked up the new Tim Armstrong CD. Two problems: firstly, it's called "A Poet's Life" - which I'm pretty sure I wouldn't call him a poet. Secondly, he thinks he's some sort of reggae singer now. Also got the new Against Me! but haven't listened to it yet. I'm pretty stoked though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garth 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2007 art brut's a good band but their songs don't go anywhere. plus I think the only thing really going for them is the lead singer. Not true, the bassist, one Miss Fredrica Feedback is both charming and beautiful. I don't get what you mean saying they're songs don't really go anywhere? As in the problems brought up in the lyrics aren't resolved? If that is indeed the problem, I quite like that we're not given the answer and left to come to ones own conclusion. I had no idea they'd been featured in the Rolling Stone though, I knew they'd been on the cover on the German edition as they're pretty big over there. Big to the point where a university has given lectures on the lyrics of Eddie Argos, and they're further up the bill than the Coral at festivals. (The Coral are pretty dire, so understandable) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At Home 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2007 I went to Against Me! about a year ago, and it was a great show, but I was right in front which was even more awesome, but the guy behind me was a complete douchebag. He was like 23 or something, and kept on fucking dry humping me jumping up and down RIGHT behind me simultaneously pushing me right into the guard rail. He eventually just grabbed the hair on the back of my head and threw me behind him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garth 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2007 Art Brut are definatly a band that grow on you. I wasn't really sure about them at first. They're also a band that is far better live than on record. Argos' banter is wonderful, I rate them only behind the Hives in terms of charismatic live acts I've seen. If you fancy it, I've got some of their live stuff I can send your way.

luke-o 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2007 Mutya Buena (formly of Sugarbabes - a shitty pop act in the UK) has just released a solo album, her single "real girl" is pretty good and there are about 3 other good songs on the album, but it's mostly shit. I recently picked up 2 Many DJ's - As heard on Radio Soulwax pt.2 and it's still awesome. Has anyone got Prince's new album? I really want to hear what it's like or hear some reviews. I might be going to see him live in August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
