Goafer Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Like much. Interstella 5555 is the best thing ever.
chairdriver Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I just cry a scream every time I think of this: Earns her place in the pop trion (which I am at this moment defining to be Beyonce, Madonna and Lady Gaga - the only pop artists I'm consistently stunned by) too well. I just love the fact that people started screaming when blood started pouring from her chest.
Goafer Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 This came on the radio today: Didn't really like it first time round, but love it now. Me and a workmate were talking about how awesome it was, then from across the room we heard someone yell "This song is so gay!". I didn't know whether to laugh or dispair.
CoolFunkMan Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) Oh yes, Gorillaz are back!!!! New album: Plastic Beach - out 8th March (apparently.) Guest apperances from Lou Reed, Barry Gibb, Mos Def and Snoop Dogg. New single: "Stylo" - first radio airplay on 26th January!!

I just love the fact that people started screaming when blood started pouring from her chest. Oh come on, there is no trion. For the time being, Gaga is the only pop star that matters. Listening to that Four Tet stream, this is great Edited January 19, 2010 by ipaul
Goafer Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 awesome cant wait to hear that album in other news got lostprophets new album on weekend...truely amazing Bugger, forgot that it came out this week. Will have to pick it up soon.
Paj! Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 This came on the radio today: Didn't really like it first time round, but love it now. Me and a workmate were talking about how awesome it was, then from across the room we heard someone yell "This song is so gay!". I didn't know whether to laugh or dispair. It's the most bizarre song. (I like it) I too have heard it on the radio (and I hardly EVER listen to the radio), which makes no sense. I don't understand how it got any airplay.
Jon Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Just rediscovering what an awesome album Dizzy up the Girl is. So many stand out tracks that don't even include Iris; which is on another level already. Love it, I eagerly await the Goo's new album sometime next month.
Dan_Dare Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I'm back on another Interpol kick. Easily one of my favourite bands- They're just masterfully controlled. Their songs are monuments to subtlety, understatement and precision. I find them incredibly moving- I was literally on the verge of tears seeing them live last year and they can summon that reaction from the merest, incremental shift in a chord, hook or rhythm. An amazing band.

An amazing band. Yeah I agree. I find exactly the same thing with Oasis. Only joking lolololol
ipaul Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I..can't tell if you're joking or not. There is some white text there that declares I am indeed joking. I actually really hate Oasis.
ipaul Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 That's what they call me Out of interest, what do the other members on here think of Oasis?
Dan_Dare Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Can't stand em personally. Knuckle dragging, moribund madchester drudgery. They lucked out with a few good songs early on and refused to innovate, grow or change for a decade while they pumped out tepid stadium chants for mondeo drivers.
Paj! Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I only know the famous songs of theirs, having never delved much into their music. It's alright. Nothing amazing, but satisfyingly catchy, not much more.
Ashley Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) I don't mind the occasional Oasis song (except people doing Wonderwall on karaoke). They remind me of a girl I used to have a crush on which is a pleasing association. Oh fiddlesticks. Spoon are playing a few dates in the UK next month. London is sold out. Manc still has tickets but it'll end up costing me about £30 and that's presuming I can find somewhere to crash. No love for Birmingham? Damn you! Ah well, they do have a new album out (their seventh, madness). Will check that out tomorrow Edited January 19, 2010 by Ashley
dan-likes-trees Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 I used to love it when I went clubbing and they put on an Oasis track, until I went clubbing more than once every blue moon and realised that they always play the same Oasis track and it gets incredibly tedious. Theyre other stuff is ok, decidedly unexciting and such. Does anyone know if this is a bizarre coincidence or intentional? Passion Pit - Smile Upon Me Audio I've been obsessed with this ever since you posted it. Reminds me of my friend from back home. S'toogood. I well had something to say when I came in here. But I can't remember now. DLT out. Edit: o o Coachella lineup announcement bumming / wanting / needing / crying
ipaul Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 (edited) I'm not keen on much rap, but I'm partial to a bit of Outkast and absolutely love this song. EDIT - Oh my god that looks like a good festival line up! Edited January 20, 2010 by ipaul
Ramar Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Went to see My Passion in Hitchin tonight, quality local band. imo.
chairdriver Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Where is Coachella? I need to go. I'm crying at Dirty Projectors/ Camera Obscura / every other band I love.
dan-likes-trees Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Where is Coachella? I need to go. I'm crying at Dirty Projectors/ Camera Obscura / every other band I love. It's in... Coachella, which irritatingly is somewhere in California. There I was thinking the US didn't have good music festivals and everything. But yeah. Bit good eent et. It seems like one day at Coachella > an entire other festival.
Paj! Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Coachella is famous. I think a friend/some friends of mine and chair's are going. I'm shaking.
Ashley Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 (edited) Cochella does indeed look good...and speaking of :p New Music...Wednesday! Spoon - Transference (I never quite get what Spoon are trying to do with album covers although I do like Gimme Fiction) Little jumped out at me with this album, but that's typical of Spoon. They tend to melt into my existence. Will give it a few listens with my numerous upcoming train journeys. Although 'Written in Reverse' did grab me. And the beat on 'Nobody Gets Me But You' is catchy. Motion City Soundtrack - My Dinosaur Life Love the name and cover 'Her Words Destoryed My Planet' obviously gets immediate love for this line: I feel asleep watching Veronica Mars again "Its always raining caterpillars from the circular fan." Weird... 'Delirium' is catchy. And '@!#?@!' features a Zelda reference. Anyway I've always enjoyed MCS. Its a great self-deprecating failure band ("lets get fucked up and die" anyone?). But with a catchy 'I'm an idiot for being so self-deprecating' kind of vibe to it. Oh and I don't think I said anything about: Vampire Weekend - Contra Catchy and fun. Particularly Horcata, California English and Cousins Edited January 20, 2010 by Ashley
