*Ignores*

 

I love "Fuck you (Fuck You Very Much)"

 

 

Basically a song about Racists, Homophobics etc. It's amazing that she manages to sound so deliciously innocent, whilst singing it.

It was, but it's been changed to "Fuck You" for the albums release. :)

That was like a placeholder name I think.

Thank you!

I thought the song was about George Bush.

I prefer the original name.

 

Much more interesting.

 

I quite like The Fear, and will probs get the album, as she's generally alright.

HOLY SHIT.

 

Half way through Grammatics self titled album and it is amazing.

 

This could easily be the album of the year (unless Muse get one out this year) and is definitely an album I have to physically own.

 

anyway some wiki description about them:

Grammatics are a complex but melodic four piece indie-rock group from Leeds, UK, consisting of Owen Brinley (guitar/vocals), Emilia Ergin (cello), Dominic Ord (drums) and Rory O’Hara (bass).

 

the band shared a desire to sway the UK indie scene away from the minimalist barebones approach employed by many post-Libertines and Strokes bands of the time and reinject some drama and grandeur back into English music. They resolved to do this with an approach they termed ‘maximalist’ and took to filling their sound out with any instruments available to hand, no matter how cheap and basic.

I like the idead they're trying to put across - It's high time Netto indie died a well earned death IMO- but I don't find that track particularly interesting. Maybe I'm just too used to going elsewhere for more complex music anyway.

What you said. It's not bad at all, but I didn't think it was particularly riveting either.

yeah.

 

still, best of luck to them I suppose. They have their audience but it's not me.

 

Personally I'm back on the Mogwai. I think Young Team might be one of the best rock albums of all time. It's just so fucking good.

 

Music is bigger than words and wider than pictures

 

I know you've not always been a fan paj but you should check out Young Team out if you can. Sublime.

I listened to the Manchester Orchestra (awful band name) song, and it was nice, but I was surfing, so I didn't here anything really after the first line.

One day I'll look into them more, I just wasn't that fond of come on die young. I might get the new one next.

I'm addicted to this song. I love beat-driven, slightly african-sounding songs...It's amazing with heavy bass.

I've never posted in this thread before, but I've listened to other peoples contributions and been pleasantly surprised on occasions.

 

My brother told me about this band called Empire of the Sun. I did a quick search and didn't find any mention of them in this thread, so I thought I'd post one of their tracks which has me hooked at the moment. Very reminiscent of MGMT, but that's no bad thing.

 

 

This particular track is "We Are The People"

I cannot stop listening to this (and the rest of the album).

 

 

I just wish the song didn't have the classic "disney ending".

Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Suck Without You (Video)

 

It will get removed really quickly, so watch it while you can.

 

 

She just broke the record in America for the biggest leap to number one, 97 - 1. That's her first number once since she won American Idol, not even Since U Been Gone managed it (Number 2).

I quite liekd it. May have to check out more in the future. The video itself reminded me of 'The Fall'...

 

Stumbled upon this which I nothinged (although its catchy) but felt the need to share as it has random people from TV land including Ryan Hansen as a rediculously OTT backing dancer:

 

Caitlin Crosby - Still Have My Heart

 

I'd imagine Haggis would like it.

The guy in the blue shorts is a severe case of I would.

 

In an albeit-he's-really-camp-and-slightly-weird kinda way.

You imagined correctly, I really like it. I love the chorus bits in the video, utterly mental.

He looks like the jock guy from She's The Man. I could be COMPLETELY wrong, mind...
