Soho Dolls - Stripper

The Gossip - Heavy Cross

This makes Tori Amos look like she belongs with the Disney whores. Which unbelievably wrong.

 

----

 

I started to "get" Hands, but then it blew up in my face. Might try later on. I'm not too enamoured with her in any case.

 

----

 

Wait, Haggis I saw a Demi Lovato album in Fopp on Friday...:wtf: With all the cliched marker pen scrawlings that is meant to represent teenage angst.

 

----

 

I'm kinda looking foward to La Roux's album. Only heard In For The Kill, but I love the Skream remix. It's just amazing.

Gaaahhhh what is there to like about that song?!

 

It's fairly electronic and repetative, which suits my tastes nicely. I also quite like the lyrics and the way the song builds more and more as it progresses. What don't you like about it? :P

I love this kinda music generally but I just couldn't stand this song unfortunately. I think the vocals put me off, and the fact it was just too repetitive got me in the end. :heh:

*Sigh* God, you annoy me sometimes. :)

Have you actually given Don't Forget a listen? Or even Get Back and La La Land for that matter. She wanted the album like that, as a 'tribute' to her love of No Doubt (Looks incredibly like their album cover). Anyway.

No, but I will now to see. I was just making the point that I thought the album that I saw was new. And you said her new one is coming out.

It is new, here. Been out for a year in America, as far as I'm aware though. I just love the power behind her voice, especially with Don't Forget live. It's utterly cliche, but I love the couple of performances of it that's she's got so into it that's she begun to cry near the end. If it were a 30 year old singing it and doing the same thing, I'd be laughing. But, somehow it works considering her age. Can't really explain what I mean, so I'll shutup. Nice to see she writes her stuff too (Or at least both writes and co-writes).

Listening to some Glam Metal/Rock at the moment. Seems to be quite a lot of new bands picking up the style in the Scandinavian countries. Anyway, liking this one in particular:

 

 

I really need to head out to Sweden again and soak up the music scene. Some great bands coming out of there, and Finland.

Why would be laughing? Tori Amos very literally freaks out all the time (dunno specifically about crying, but I assume so) and she was around 30-35 during her "crazy" period. But anyway.

 

So far it seems bland as an album. Kinda what I expected to be fair. Better than Veronicas. It sounds a bit like she listened to a No Doubt album, then a Jonas Brothers album, then decided to squish the two into an unholy union. Every song sounds the same except Don't Forget, which does at the end.

No, you misunderstand me. I would be laughing because for a 30 year old to be crying over the lyrics in Don't Forget just wouldn't be right. The lyrics are obviously a bit immature with lines like "Love is like a song, you can't forget it" and so on. Yet, for her as a 16 year old who wrote it, it probably feels like such a deep and meaningful song, and so therefore the fact she manages to cry over it makes it seem all the more real.

 

I'm probably making no sense am I?

 

And yes, the album is utterly average at best. I only listen to Don't Forget, Get Back and then La La Land a little. I'm not for a second saying it's entirely amazing, because it isn't. But it's definitely a good start, in my eyes.

No you are, you're right.

 

Also, I ammend what I say (grudgingly), I've come around to Untouched. I felt the awesome string bits were wasted on a shit song, but I appreciate it's raveyness. Everything else I heard from them is still balls though. :)

Thom Yorke just announced for Latitude! woop canny wait.

 

He is playing the special 12 noon on sunday which Joanna Newsom filled last year. Should be epic!

Raveyness? The only thing I'd credit that song with is the two hot girls who sing and catchyness.

I mean in the way it makes you dance. In a frantic fashion.

Ah, I could imagine much frantic dancing if it came on during a night out, if only to try and impress some females.

Fair enough. Guessing you dont like All My Friends either. Do you like The Chemical Brothers?

 

I love the Chemical Brothers, Groove Armada, Justice, Propellerheads.. :D

I love that I wasn't that addicted to it before sending it to you, and now afterwards I cannot stop listening. Damn it to hell. I'm so going to be screaming this whilst getting ready tomorrow morning, my mum won't know what's hit her.
