Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I remember seeing this band perform on the Jonathan Ross show, and I didn't catch the name of the band, but they made a good impression. I was watching E4, when I saw an advert for Skins. The advert music seemed familiar, so I googled it. Turns out, it's a remix for a song by this band, and the sony is called Standing In The Way Of Control. Do ye know of thee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harribo Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Beth Ditto is the coolest person in the world according to NME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Stop with your jokes retro-lover, Beth Ditto is damn cool. She's got a great voice. So, that's two people who have heard of them. Good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killthenet Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Beth Ditto is the coolest person in the world according to NME. That's about the only half-decent choice the NME has ever made with the cool list, and one of the few half-decent decisions they've made in the last 15 years. They may aswell just change their name to Smash Hits Magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Is there any songs by this band that particularly stand out to you? I quite like "Your mangled heart." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killthenet Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Well, "Standing In The Way Of Control"; "Listen Up" and "Jealous Girls" from the new album. Prefer their album "Movement" though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 i think she has a good voice, but i do not like them. The other 2 guys in the band seem to have very basic ability and I really don't like the music. And, sad but true, the fact she's so fat and hideous also puts me off them.

LukeLee Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 me and Takeo saw them as the warm-up band for scissor sisters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Not my cup of tea, though the bassline for "Standing In The Way Of Control" I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CooInTheZoo Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 i got a couple of tracks last july/august time? and picked up their album october time, i think there great, flinky you should check out some of the larger music shops they often stock their EP's which are also great. The other 2 guys in the band seem to have very basic ability and I really don't like the music. And, sad but true, the fact she's so fat and hideous also puts me off them. one of the two 'guys' is a girl. though you prob just said guys meaning both genders. and judging a band's music by the way the bandmembers look is incredibly stupid.

Tom Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 and judging a band's music by the way the bandmembers look is incredibly stupid. i know, I am quite dissapointed in myself that it has put me off them tbh. ah well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowV7 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I saw them last night on the Friday Night Project,she said she was in the sexiest for NME along with Kate Moss or something,all the time she was at the band section she was sitting on her ass doing bugger all and sometimes she was eating chinese.

Fierce_LiNk Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 I posted about them in the meaningless post thread a couple of weeks ago Should've made a thread! They were on the Friday Night Project, as Shadow said. Pretty good performance I thought, and Beth sure does love to dance a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
