I was about to gan mad with you then expecting to read what a cohesive album from that **** who writes on his arms.

I've calmed down a bit now, the link sums up Coldplay pretty well.

Its quite obvious that the reviewer hates Coldplay so why give him the album to review in the first play

Ive liked Coldplay since hearing Yellow on the radiogram and think that they are a very good band,Coldplay get constant stick from "music experts" but still their albums sell by the million,i loved the single Magic and i will buy the album and make up my own mind along with the "new" Micheal Jackson album so there...

Mate off of ours from clique hq thinks Coldplay are ace but tbf it's his only fault.

Heard Martin being interviewed on 6 t'other week and I felt like butting the steering wheel constantly for have an hour.

I am currently listening to an album called Benji by Sun Kil Moon. It's all aboot death of family members and the singer's eternal battle with depression.

Probs not one I'd recommend for you chalky lad.

Benji is a great album and i shall be giving it a few more listens,it is heartbreaking sad in parts...

Standout tracks was I Love My Dad,Jim Wise and Dogs but that may change the more that i listen to it...

'Jim Wise mercy killed his wife in a hospital at her bedside, then he put a gun to his head but it jammed and he didn't die.' Coldplay would kill for lyrics like that.

Richard Ramirez Died Today is my personal fave chalky. Glad you're 'enjoying' it, give the Red House Painters a youtubing, that's his former band.

Jim Wise is a very sad song indeed...

Best album - Parallel Lines :heart:

Munch_Magic
21-05-2014, 10:29 PM
Great Album is Parallel Lines, I like 'Fade Away And Radiate'

The indie lot on here, if you like The Manics Holy Bible then you could do far worse than the under appreciated Auteurs 'After Murder Park' in years to come Luke Haines will be lauded like he should be, Black Box Recorder were well ace too.

I'm finding more so these days that looking back and investigating bands you missed is very rewarding, apart from Mansun who only had one good album.

Parallel Lines is a great album,i think that it was the first album that i bought after buying nothing but singles...

I always played the B side first as 11.59 was my favorite song...

Luke Haines is a GOD. Primarily for his utterly ace book and Lenny Valentino. One off of the best indie tunes off of all time. He never replied to my e-mail though, the ignorant bellend.

Theres a lot of crap music being released for a quick buck but it never ceases to amaze me how much great music is also out there if you are just willing to look and keep an open mind...

Nice one Floppy, Luke Haines is the most underrated music artist of my generation.

Best remembered for one of the best intros to a song ever -

"I took a showgirl
For my bride
Thought my life
Would be right
Took her bowling
Got her high
Got myself a showgirl bride"

What did you email him then Floppy? Do you have his email address as I reckon he will know where that missing plane is.

Leeds United song is ace too -

When I get home my wife will kill me
She's so house proud, so don't tread dirt into the carpet
Stop for a pint in Chapeltown
Lights turn to red and then they go out
And for the price of five pounds
It's what the seventies were about

Baby

Leeds United, Leeds United
From Wakefield to the Ridings
To the ground at Elland Road
At Leeds United they're chanting vengence, it's a 13-0 defeat on the front page of the Post
A last minute substitution but we didn't have the talent
I was beaten we were gutted I was sick as a parrot

Leeds United
Leeds United

Every Saturday night at the Teddy Boys' disco
It's good to be young leave the wife at home now
Propping up the bar World Of Sport then fixing the car
You're on a mission from God
It's what the weekend's all about

It's good to be young now
Leeds United Leeds United
Mark II Ford Cortina Vauxhall Viva Ford Corsair
On the terraces of Leeds United
One voice is silent he's the man with jet black hair
And come to b

Tried to get him to come and play in Leicester on his North Sea Scrolls tour early last year. He initially expressed interest then couldn't be mithered replying when we tried to talk money and dates and stuff.


He's still ace though.

I of just had an quick read through off of that review, and I must say I admire the reviewer's restraint. To be fair there is absolutely nee way I could possibly of been so pleasant and laid back after ofing to listen to an ****ing Coldplay album.

Ive just got back from my sisters who lives in Mansfield,my niece is aged twelve(12)and fancies herself as a bit of a singer but just sings Adele songs and puts no effort into what shes singing,so being the caring uncle that i am i got Futures Islands singing Seasons Change up on Youtube and belted out my own singalong version,i was ace,did the lot,thumping my chest,pulling my T shirt down and even the growling bit to show her how it should be done,they was well impressed as there was a stunned silence at the end as they both stared open mouthed at my mega performance...

Thinking about afterwards i could have just shown the the Youtube clip but i think that i left a lasting impression on them...B)

Aye, it were. Good rememberings. And you've got ME to thank for recommending the Sun Kil Moon record to Kenny.

Most welcome, obv.

It's the detail in there that I really love -the old pal whose seizure was triggered by an awkward bar-chord technique - the tune about going to see The Postal Service has got some brilliant lines in it: the 350 dollar lampshades, his sister dating a deerhunter (getting used to venison), that Sports Bar ****,...

Right, I'm sticking it on AGAIN.

Indeedy jessie lad, tis an AWESOME LP.

Not many singers can get away with singing about having to piss fifty times a day, a grumbling prostate and a bad back but he does it with aplomb*

I'm still arfing like a drain here imagining the vision of chalky doing the Future Islands deranged loon routine, even though I divvent know what he looks like.
