Posted November 7, 2023 Been on a Nothing But Thieves kick as of late. Had a few songs buried in my Liked Songs on Spotify already, but finally took the time to get more intimate with some of their albums. Loved it all so far Shout-out to @drahkon for his great taste in music 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2023 You know when you keep listening to a song and think "is this my subconscious trying to tell me something?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cannot wait to see them again next February. Hope they play Tomorrow is Closed. This song is pretty much how I feel a bout the world right now. Still it's somewhat hopeful. Tomorrow is closed There's no future at all We've burned it all down, down to the ground Oh, I saw it written on the bathroom wall I've lost my place, we all have But I hope someday we're gonna get it back I can kinda play it on guitar and sing along (albeit horribly) and it's quite therapeutic. If they play it next year I'll probably shed a few tears. Wouldn't be the first time seeing them live :') Edited November 10, 2023 by drahkon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favourite song for me on Dead Club City (though by no means the only great song on there). It's really got that Strokes feel down pat between it's tempo and guitar, love it So I'll be hoping they play it for you too 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 24, 2023 Been listening to this song a whole lot over the last month amongst all of the NBT listening (yes, it's another Nothing But Thieves post ), one line in particular: Quote I love you despite myself what a freaking line Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 9 (edited) I had the theme tune to 'Allo 'Allo in my head the other day and found this, which I absolutely love: Edited January 9 by Helmsly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 20 Been listening to The Warning, a Mexican sister trio, a good bit over the last month or so: Love their choruses. Also love their occasional song in Spanish: (their bassist, the youngest sister Alejandra, was just 14 here...which is kind of insane) Also had Spectre by Radiohead on repeat a whole lot. The best Bond theme that never was Besides that, been revisiting some Bastille. Pretty sure they're a big part of why I like the music I do now, kind of crazy to think All This Bad Blood released over a decade ago, listened to them a lot in my latter high school years, which... doesn't make me feel old or anything Lastly, @drahkon I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that Oh No :: He Said What is my most played song since it released 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a concert. Aside from some power issues, which caused a mid-concert delay, City Haunts being aborted and two songs being played early, it was awesome. The two songs were Drawing Pins and Lover, Please Stay. The latter was sooooo good. Connor's voice is a marvel. After those songs, they finally played City Haunts and I did not expect Connor to hit all those notes live I should have, but that song is tough! Anyways, I cried during three songs: Tomorrow is Closed, as expected; Lover, Please Stay - did not expect that, but it's such a beautiful song; Impossible - how can you not @Julius go see them if you ever get the chance. Edit: Forgot to mention: They apparently didn't play Pop The Balloon due to the power issues But they played Trip Switch. It's kinda funny when you know the lyrics. Just found out that instead of Pop The Balloon they added Drawing Pins. During the tour they switch Drawing Pins with This feels like the End from concert to concert but they played both last night Edited February 23 by drahkon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It just hits like a ton of bricks. Good thing I'm careful to not listen to it too much... *is my most played song on Spotify over the last 6 months* Whoops Glad to hear you had a great time! Quote go see them if you ever get the chance. Will definitely need to. I've actually never been to a concert before, probably doesn't help that my friends don't really share my taste in music all that much so I'll find some NBT-listening strangers and drag them along instead I guess!

Last Thursday, I approached a couple of people and we had a nice chat before the concert started. We all enjoy the same thing, in that case NBT. It's easy to find at least one topic to talk about During the concert, though: no talking, only dancing, singing, jumping Edited February 26 by drahkon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12 Probably my favourite Muse song. Definitely the best live version I've heard. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15 (edited) A whole lot of Weyes Blood the last week and a bit or so. Killer voice (very Karen Carpenter/Joni Mitchell), lyrics, and unique sound. Album covers are stellar too: 59 minutes ago, drahkon said: They just don't miss. Yesssssssss, and the stripped versions of Tomorrow is Closed and Overcome are glorious Edited March 15 by Julius Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
