Posted August 28, 2009 Joanna Newsom - YS Fuck! And for some reason I have ended up with TWO copies of From The Choirgirl Hotel by Tori Amos so if anyone wants the spare copy and is prepared to pay postage for it then PM me and it's yours. No one'll take you up on the offer I don't think, but they should, cause it's probably her most accessible GREATOMG!! album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'd better... otherwise I'll do something I normally never do and use the case as a coaster a rather lovely coaster mind you but I'd much rather someone actually got some enjoyment out of it. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2009 It has some of the best album art I've ever encountered. Booklet wise, it's on par with Kid A for me. So I'd put it on the wall if I were you. But a coaster works too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, both of those albums have excellent artwork... so coaster it is until / unless someone requests it from me. ----------------------------- Fuck! just when I was about to hold off buying any more CD's Play have a £5 and under Bank Holiday Sale... I'm too weak dammit! ;_; Ladyhawke - Ladyhawke Bat For Lashes - Fur And Gold, Two Suns Ok so Two Suns wasn't in the offer but meh... >.> *curse my damn weakness* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MUSE HAARP is a good live album. Hysteria and SS are iffy but the rest is pretty well recorded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 28, 2009 Yay, you bought Ladyhawke. Well done SCG. That means I need to live up to my end of the bargain and go and buy Little Boots. Damn you *shakes fist* Might be heading out later for foods so perhaps I'll pick it up then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2009 I'll make my bed, and I'll sleep like a baby With no regrets, and I don't mind saying: It's a sad, sad story when a mother will teach her daughter That she oughta hate a perfect stranger, And how in the world did the words that I said Send somebody so over the edge that they'd write me a letter Saying that I better Shut up and sing Or my life would be over?!

Damn you *shakes fist* Might be heading out later for foods so perhaps I'll pick it up then. I think Ladyhawke is way better/more enjoyable than Little Boots tbh. Little Boots was underwhelming after the hype, with it having a couple of good tracks in amongst a lot of forgettable stuff. Symmetry is the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotta say, I enoyed Little Bootd a lot more than that but it's just splitting hairs tbh, doesn't matter that much, La Roux, Little Boots, Ladyhawke - the three LLL's! - they are all good and very enjoyable but still after a good few listens not as amazing as other artists, even though as albums they are fantastic for what they are. Yes I'm aware as part of that statement I'm pre-empting what Ladyhawke is like but I can kinda guess and as long as it's enjoyable Idm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 28, 2009 Speaking of La Roux, does anyone happen to know the remix of 'Going in for the kill' (or whatever its actually called) that was used in the Reading Festival BBC Three spot featuring (I think) Zane Lowe (or the other one, I always get the DJ and the curly haired guy mixed up) jumping on a big 'on' button? Sounded good. I do have a CD that should win the 'best album booklet' award. Will take photos when I get over my laziness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2009 So...apparently, Oasis have split up. http://www.oasisinet.com/NewsArticle.aspx?n=773 A STATEMENT FROM NOEL 28 August 2009 "It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer. "Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan." They weren't exactly my cup of tea but they made a fair number of songs I rather liked, Live Forever, Don't Look Back In Anger and Acquiesce to name a few. Oh, well...

Posted August 28, 2009 They'll be back together within the next few years. Sibling fights always happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2009 Just thinking that. It's always the case. If they're not back together in 5 years, then...it was one hell of a sibling fall-out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2009 Or they're using it as a reason. They have such a 'hot-head' image that I don't think they could just say "we got bored and gave up". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
