Ashley Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 As mentioned im more into the other one, with the long blonde hair. (And Zachery Levi obviously because he's made of geeky win) And yes you were right. The vid has Zachery Levi (Chuck), Ryan Hansen (Veronica Mars), Jesse Spencer and Robert Hoffman.
Solo Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Saw God Is An Astronaut last night in London, awesome show.
Paj! Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 A Sigur Ros compilation album is being given away free in The Independant on Saturday. We Play Endlessly collects track from "3 of their albums". I assume it'll be the last 3 albums. (As they mention Hoppipola and the titles refers to a song/title of the last album. Still, good for anyone not yet a fan!
Roostophe Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Only By The Night is such a brilliant album! Most of the songs on there are much better than Sex On Fire *Wants to make use of new YT feature* Take this track, it's called Be Somebody. I love it. Audio
Paj! Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 I hate people with no musical lives deciding what and what doesn't get played in the common room. This guy (famously crazy and likes bottling people) claimed that everybody wants to hear popular stuff, and that means only chart stuff. Also that all chart stuff is good, as it on the chart in the first place. I hated. Then a girl put her iPod on, and we listened to The Teenagers, who I genuinely liked, and might explore further. THAT'S what I want in music listening, when others show their music tastes to others, and share likes and stuff. Not listening to mother-fucking Keane..! ---- Villan, I don't know much KoL stuff, but that isn't bad. Not particularly interesting either. But it could be worse.
Platty Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Shiiiit, more Bat for Lashes tickets on sale on Friday, NEED. All I need to do now is find someone who likes em... Then Id have Asobi Seksu Bloc Party with Foals Bat for Lashes Coming up. Would be an epic Spring. oooo what date you seeing Bloc Party? you going to Olympia? I'll be there on Sat 11th......it'll be my 10th time in seeing them. I'm a little obsessed.
dan-likes-trees Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 I hate people with no musical lives deciding what and what doesn't get played in the common room. Does my head in. One time when we gained control of the speakers at our school one of the 'cool girls' came took the remote and turned it off. Granted, it was death metal that some guy had stuck on but still, it annoys me when someone like her, who has about the equivalent musical knowledge that I had when I was about 7, and who constantly sticks on shit, turned it off... oooo what date you seeing Bloc Party? you going to Olympia? I'll be there on Sat 11th......it'll be my 10th time in seeing them. I'm a little obsessed. Ahh Im going the Sunday Should be rather amazing. First time seeing them for me, I saw like two songs at Reading but that was about it because Justice ran on late and I missed most of the set
Ashley Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 I wouldn't mind seeing Bloc Party actually. Re-getting into them lately.
Platty Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 I wouldn't mind seeing Bloc Party actually. Re-getting into them lately. My favourite band if you hadnt guessed. One of the best live bands I've ever seen too, hence why I keep going back for more. Love them. The best gig I went to was a "fans" only at Brighton Concorde. Only members of their website could get tickets. It was such a good gig. You must go see Ashley!
Ashley Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 You must go see Ashley! I may put that on my business card (okay okay, the napkin I write my number on for strangers, semantics). I'd like to but I have nobody to go to gigs with. (and it would be just as easy to presume your favourite band is The Subways :p)
ReZourceman Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Jesus fucking Christ Miley Citrus new song is fucking awful. Probably the most irritating song I've heard in years. I liked her first one btw. Sassy lil bitch, but yeah....irritating as fuck choon. Audio

I have seen them a fair few times aswell I'm a gig whore!
Coolness Bears Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 About the whole fighting for the music at school. It is a constant battle it is impossible to please everyone usually those who want to listen to RnB/HipHop win but occasionally it is put on to something else. Also because it is just the Music channels on the TV we listen to when I get hold of the remote I stick it on Pokemon for fun. solves everything! 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" Yes! I hadn't heard that song of theirs before. I thought it was really good but I prefer their "Walking on a Dream" song, which is the only other song I've heard by them. It is excellent. Jesus fucking Christ Miley Citrus new song is fucking awful. Probably the most irritating song I've heard in years. I liked her first one btw. Sassy lil bitch, but yeah....irritating as fuck choon. Audio You know you secretly love it. :p
Guest Captain Falcon Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Yes! I hadn't heard that song of theirs before. I thought it was really good but I prefer their "Walking on a Dream" song, which is the only other song I've heard by them. It is excellent. I think Walking on a Dream is easier to listen to and perhaps a better way to introduce the band to someone new due to it's melodious nature, but I think We are the People shows a greater level of composition on the whole - it just takes a bit longer to get going. I think the album, also called Walking on a Dream, is pretty good from my first few listens.
Paj! Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Jesus fucking Christ Miley Citrus new song is fucking awful. Probably the most irritating song I've heard in years. I liked her first one btw. Sassy lil bitch, but yeah....irritating as fuck choon. Audio Her album is the best pure pop/rock album I heard last year, that didn't take itself too seriously. Including this song. It's amazing turned up. Seriously. And with good bass. *hugs speakers and subwoofer* She epitomized all I despised, until I got the album. Better than the shitty stuff that tops the charts popwise usually, Saturdays, Girls Aloud (now)...most of the rap crap. Incidentally, your choice is up on Music Warz just now..Offspring.
Slaggis Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Yeah, ReZ...you suck. That's a great pop tune, no question. Try out th album, if you liked 7 Things then you should love it. I can't stop listening to it at the moment, it's pretty damn great. 7 Things/The Driveway (My fave song on the album) are funking addictive.

I think it;s cause she actualy sounds like she means what she's singing. Same with These Four Walls and Hovering etc.
Slaggis Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 The Driveway is pretty awesome. I think it;s cause she actualy sounds like she means what she's singing. Same with These Four Walls and Hovering etc. Completely, that's exactly what I said in a previous post. Also, Hovering? I've not heard this. *runs to youtube*
Ashley Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Okay Daft I'll give you Daylight. Thats catchy. Still yet to be won over by the rest of their stuff. Although I do want new stuff. Everytime I scroll through my iTunes library it seems to get smaller.
Paj! Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Completely, that's exactly what I said in a previous post. Also, Hovering? I've not heard this. *runs to youtube* I bought the album with the bonus tracks. Which unlike bonus tracks on some albums I got recently (Lady GaGa) are actually exactly the same quality at the rest of the album. Hovering is the one that has her brother (from Metro Station) in it. ----- Blood Bank - Bon H'Iver His new EP...I STILL haven't got the album. I will when I get more money.
CoolFunkMan Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 I just got back from the Kerrang Relentless gig in Birmingham, went with a few mates. What an evening it was too! Here's a rundown of the bands and my thoughts... In Case of Fire were a bit boring, and had a very short set, but were alright. Black Tide suprised me. I haven't heard thier stuff before, and thought it was pretty good! Very Metallica(ish), they even covered a Metallica song. Dir En Grey were the main reason me and my friend were there. They were fantastic and put on a brilliant set! They even played one of my favourites, obscure. Thier signing afterwards was cut short though, which was dissapointing. We didn't get anything signed. We actually hate Bring Me the Horizon, so we didn't bother with them. They sounded crap tbh. Mindless Self Indulgence dominated. They didn't only put on a good set, but an awesome show! The lead singer is hilarious too. Whenever they go and tour again, I urge anyone to see them, they were flawless. So overall, I thought it was a great night! Enjoying 3 out of 5 bands makes the £15 ticket price worth it imo.
ReZourceman Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 I'm certainly not opposed to trying her album, so I will do (I really did like "7 things") but yeah. Fly on the *shudder* wall just grates my tets.
tapedeck Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Probably been mentioned ages ago but I cannot get this song out of my head. The first verse is sublime. I don't think it reaches a 'point' like it could but it's a wonderfully relaxing song. (Regina Spektor: The call. Featured in the movie Prince Caspian.)
Ashley Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Bloc Party - Two More Years Audio One of my favourite BP songs because its so bleak. Unlike other media there is no conclusion, no outcome. He sings about things being better in two more years but those two years will never pass. The song is stuck in the now and we're stuck in a miserable present constantly looking forward to a future that will never come. ...or at least thats my interepretation. Although in the version I have toward the end they double up the lyrics, looping the verse over the chorus (or vice versa I forget) which I prefer.
