harribo Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Can I just recommend to everyone, except The Bard, the band Metric. I'm listening to their first album for the first proper time and its brilliant, but their 2nd and 3rd albums, Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? and Live It Out are better.
gmac Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Hot Hot Heat Rulez. That is all. truth plus new album this summer and i think they got a new song on their myspace
Guest Stefkov Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 truth plus new album this summer and i think they got a new song on their myspace I've only got Make Up the Breakdown and Elevator, havn't checked for an others in stores but I know theres more online. New album ftw! I will check up on it.
Letty Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 So what does everyone think of the new version of Liquid Lives by Hadouken!? Listen here: http://www.myspace.com/hadoukenuk I was suprised how old they could make their voices sound at the start.
gmac Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Stefkov I would avoid their earlier stuff mate, it's supposedly nothing like the stuff on the 2 albums you do have

I have seen the metric! They supported Bloc Party when I saw them at Folkestone. Pretty cool band.
Guest Stefkov Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Stefkov I would avoid their earlier stuff mate, it's supposedly nothing like the stuff on the 2 albums you do have Ah right cheers mate. I just found them on amazon. Just to check them out. 'Give up' i their new song. I like it. I just added them to my friends on myspace
Sanchez Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I have seen the metric! They supported Bloc Party when I saw them at Folkestone. Pretty cool band. I have seen metric twice, plan to go see them again after the new album is released, Probably my all time favourite band. I've been known to sing Combat Baby in my sleep, no joke. I have a copy of Live it Out signed by the whole band. Emily wrote xox after her name:love:. About metric, I think I rate the albums like this (best songs) 1.Old World Underground (Combat Baby, Dead Disco, I.O.U, succexy) 2.Live it Out (Empty, Live it Out, Monster Hospital) 3.Grow up and blow away (Rock me Now, soft rock star) They're all brilliant. Which reminds me, if you like Metric's softer stuff you should look out Emily haines' solo albums, they're very depressing but quite touching. Anyone else heard of the matches? http://www.myspace.com/thematches They're a punk band (not the emo kind) who I almost saw live last year with motion city soundtrack but we spent too much time eating chinese and came in late. Now I'm sad I missed them, they're pretty fast paced, and some sections are unbelievably catchy.

I'm deffo gonna get her album when it comes out. Also bought a proper version of Old world.. from Play.com today.
Oxigen_Waste Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I prefer Off The Wall myself. Much better. Agrees.

Good band, seen them live a few times and they were better than i expected! Hot Hot Heat Rulez. That is all. QMFT Still to see them live, will make it this year
Oxigen_Waste Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Hot Hot Heat Rulez. That is all. Allow me to disagree.
Excelle Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 I've been listening to Lostprophets - Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja a lot recently. Such a great song. It may not be as musically or lyrically advanced as a lot of stuff in my collection, but it's still a brilliant track.
McPhee Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Finally the Lineup for Fflam Festival in Swansea has been announced! Friday 13 July Keane The Feeling Levellers The Stranglers New Model Army Alabama 3 Saturday 14 July Placebo Feeder Biffy Clyro Cold War Kids Howling Bells White Rose Movement Enter Shikari Fightstar yourcodenameis:milo Oceansize Sunday 15 July Manic Street Preachers Dirty Pretty Things The Ordinary Boys The Hold Steady Carbon/Silicon Dropkick Murphys Bloodhound Gang Buzzcocks InMe Im not sure on the ordering, these bands are the ones leaked on efestivals.co.uk so they might change. Its being officially announced tomorrow though Personally i love it! A lot of my favourite bands are playing, the Friday sucks ass but the Sat and Sunday look mint!
gmac Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 The Hold Steady should be higher in the bill than the Ordinary Boys, that's for sure
weeyellowbloke Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Personally i love it! A lot of my favourite bands are playing, the Friday sucks ass but the Sat and Sunday look mint! Hold up, surely not. Any day which has the Alabama 3 playing can never ever ever ever ever suck ass. New Model Army, The Levellers and The Stranglers are decent enough as well. But anyway, that does seem a fairly decent line up.
KKOB Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 I really REALLY love Rufus Wainwrights new album, it's a grower and not as instantly lovable as his Want albums. Still i'm LOVING it now ^_^

New Model Army, The Levellers and The Stranglers are decent enough as well. But anyway, that does seem a fairly decent line up. Got the Stage Splits now, looks a lot better! Not too bad for £100 really. Better than the piss poor Reading line-up this year thats for sure! (even though i might still go to Reading)
mcj metroid Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 What is all your opinions on GREENDAY? I'll save mine until after(It's not good)
KKOB Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 What is all your opinions on GREENDAY? I'll save mine until after(It's not good) I totally loathe their recent shit, their older stuff is better, but not by much, i like minority and thats about it . . . .
mcj metroid Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 I totally loathe their recent shit, their older stuff is better, but not by much, i like minority and thats about it . . . . ha totally agree with this but i would go futher. Their old stuff is mediocre but new stuff is god fucking awful. Just having this argument with a friend.
The Bard Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Dear god, the only good band on that bill is the Dropkick Murphys. And maybe Feeder.
