Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. Devo, The Sonic's and Shellac have just been added to Primavera Sound. Seriously, if anyone here lives in Barcelona, can I come and stay with you for 3 days in late May? Oh, and also can you lend me £200 for the festival tickets and the flights?

 

Seriously, it's looking like a super ATP!

Part of the Leonard Cohen tour was announced. Not sure if I should hold out for dates that might be announced that are closer to me or to go for the Manchester ones...

 

Look at it this way,

 

What are the chances more will be announced?

Good list but replace Electric Ladyland with Are You Experienced and it is stronger. Also where is Exodus by Bob Marley?

 

I preffer Are You Experienced. :D

I'm not a Marley Appreciator, I'd give Exodus an 8.5. :D

 

Edit:

 

In fact, I preffer Catch a Fire or Burnin' to Exodus.

:heh: what's the story behind this?

 

I love the Arcade Fire :smile:

 

Well, the album is flawlessly written, song-wise. In fact, it's a fucking masterpiece, same can be said for Neon Bible... but I just don't like them, I can't really explain why, they repulse me. But I admire them and have a great respect for them. :D

 

ALSO

 

I believe that I've already stressed just how good Crystal Castles' homonymous debut album is, right? It's out March 18th and I already doubt there'll be another album this good until the end of the year. A fucking genious album, is what it is. :bowdown:

There already has been. "Street Horschiing" by Fuck Buttons. And there's the new Fall LP on the way next month. The new Portishead album is weird, I need to listen to it some more.

 

Isn't that "Street Horrrsing"?

 

Anywayz, seriously, as much as I love noise... the new CC album is just too good. Every track is great... I'm totally hooked on Untrust US, among many others.
