[Oasis05]

[MUFC1990]

Arctic Monkeys are ****e ! FACT

[Ibra-Gol!]

Arctic Monkeys are ****e ! FACT

Thats your opinion, not mine and not theirs

Nobodys opinion is fact, so please dont waste forum space by trying to claim it :)

[MUFC1990]

Well its not Fact they are okish but i do not like thier attitude they have become arrogant and cokcy since the days of playing the grapes in sheffield .

[MANUMAD]

Arctic Monkeys are ****e ! FACT

Really now?! So what do you like instead ... Bon effin Jovi or some other boring sh*te I bet!

Anyways- been listening to:

The Jarvis Cocker Record - I wasnt prepared about how funny (witty) the lyrics are ... The musical arrangements take a while to get used to but thats what I think will give longevity to it. A definite 2006 highlight.

CSS -Cansei De Ser Sexy- They might be tired of being sexy (as their name suggests) but this groovy and bouncy record just oozes sex. Catchy songs and quite interesting combination of instruments. Another 2006 highlight that initially slipped below my radar.

Xiu Xiu - The Air Force- Stand up Mr Charlton Fan you re a godhead!!!! Recommended by the great man and I can only be extremely thankful to him as I wouldnt otherwise have gone for this emotional, affecting and deep experience of an album.

[MUFC1990]

I like music i think that arctic monkeys are annoying !

[Superpig]

Arctic Monkeys are ****e ! FACT
Youre an idiot.

Thats like me saying "Man U are ****e, FACT!"

Well its not Fact they are okish but i do not like thier attitude they have become arrogant and cokcy since the days of playing the grapes in sheffield .

The play guitars.

Please think before you open that mouth of yours, altho you do have nice lips.

[MUFC1990]

err

The grapes is a pub in sheffield where they used to play !!

[charlton fan]

Xiu Xiu - The Air Force- Stand up Mr Charlton Fan you re a godhead!!!! Recommended by the great man and I can only be extremely thankful to him as I wouldnt otherwise have gone for this emotional, affecting and deep experience of an album.

You're welcome. That album really does stand out from last year- love it.

Also- MUFC1990: Tell me why you think Arctic Monkeys are arrogant? I think you're one of those people who likes a band until they become over popular and get airtime on Radio 1 and you think you're cool for disliking popular bands. Arctic Monkeys were and still are a great little band, I really want to hear how they follow up their debut album. I hope it sounds completely different from the first.

[Oasis05]

I really want to hear how they follow up their debut album. I hope it sounds completely different from the first.

I read somewhere there thinking of having a rap feel to it or something and also working with Dizzie Rascal. Now that would be completely different, But I cant see it happening. We shall see.

Currently -

Seahorses - Do It Yourself
Radiohead - Ok Computer

[charlton fan]

and also working with Dizzie Rascal. Now that would be completely different, But I cant see it happening. We shall see.


Noooooo! He shouldn't be wasting time with them, he needs to get working on his own new album and get it out. I need to hear it. I <3 Dizzee.

[petriiii]

I like quite different kind of musics, but normally I like quite calm rock new and old.

Favourite bands are hmm this is difficult, but if I think this moment those are:

Arctic Monkeys, Hard-Fi, Queen, The Beatles, John Lennon, Sean Lennon, Razorlight, WASP, Block Party, Muse, Oasis, The Sounds, The Zutons, The Kinks, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs and many many more :)

Is there fans of this kind of music at this forum ?

[Oasis05]

Very similar taste to me mate. Some of my tops bands would be The Beatles, The Stones, The Kinks, Stone Roses, Stereophonics, Radiohead, RHCP, U2, The Jam/Weller, The Who, Razorlight, Bloc Party, Hard Fi, A.Monkeys.

As for Dizzie,The missus sister used to listen to him constantly, never really paid much attention to him though.

BEatles
Bee Gees
Black Eyed peas
Black Sabbath

I like Razorlight , Kasabian and Kaiser chiefs who are mainstream Indie bands .

And yes i know Jonny Borrel comes across as arogant and a bit of an arse at times but most of the things he says are true .

[charlton fan]

Jonny Borrel actually thinks Razorlight are the best band ever, so he's clearly arrogant and very stupid. I don't understand why you like those three and not Arctic Monkeys though... the beauty of different tastes in music I guess.

I just took a twenty minute break from revision to give the new Patrick Wolf album a little listen- heard the first five tracks: very impressed with them. Really good mix of this new popish sound and the darker well known sound. Check it out.

[MUFC1990]

I never have been keen on them even when i heard them before they were famous .

[MANUMAD]

About the Arctic Monkeys next LP ... if it works so bloody well why change it really? (I never expected to say this about a band as Im as far away from conservative in my tastes as can be...)

[MUFC1990]

Does anyone have joy division - love will tear us apart could they please send me thier msn addy so they can send it to me

[Superpig]

Didn't Oasis do that? First album was good so made the next five exactly the same and in my opinion they were all a bit rubbish (WTSMG had a few good tracks). I'm not saying I want Arctic Monkeys to become a psychedelic prog rock band, I just want something a little different from their first album.

OOh, are you going to compile a best albums of 2006 list MANUMAD? I'd like to see your list.

[norwich4life]

Well i been listening to the best of moby in the car very good to drive to (which i have just passed on first attempt).
On ipod Jamie T, Shelia i would recommend.
Also to the kid who said Artic Monkeys are s****, :o that is what i feel for you.

[charlton fan]

Does anyone have joy division - love will tear us apart could they please send me thier msn addy so they can send it to me
I have about six versions as it is one of my favourite songs from my absolute favourite band of all time. I'm not going to send it to you though, one because I don't use MSN and two because I wouldn't want to pirate their material (they're just too special to me, sorry). You should go down to HMV or somewhere and you can probably pick up 'Substance' (the compilation of theirs with LWTUA on it) for maybe £5. It also features some more of their epic works. Joy Division are not a one song band.

Well i am currently listening to Cute Is What We Aim For my pal has been telling me they are going to be big this year but i turned my nose up to him but i am plesantley suprised big things are heading there way.

[Giggs11]

Cheers for the heads up fella i have been waiting ages for this one i want them to go back to the first album style that was the best.

[Giggs11]

I loved Hybrid Theory and Meteora, perhaps Hybrid Theory was a tad better but every singe song on each album was top quality, i'm hoping for the same. Also, after the album has been released, Chester, the lead singer, is releasing another album from a band called Snow White Tan, his side project, i'm also looking forward to that.

[charlton fan]

Clipse- Hell Hath No Fury: really great hip/hop from last year. Check it out.

[Bristol Bean]

Loving Snow Patrol - Eyes Open at the moment. What do people think about their other albums, im thinking of getting Final Straw and When it's all over we still have to clear up, any comments would be appreciated :)

[charlton fan]

I'm not a Snow Patrol fan really, but my Mum has Eyes Open- so I hear that quite a bit and my friend has Final Straw- which I used to hear quite a bit. Final Straw is better in my opinion.

[Bristol Bean]

Think i'll get them both, I only know the usuals how to be dead, run etc..but I can't stop listening to eyes open so im sure i'll like them. Also going to order Editors - The back room, it's only 5.99 and i've been wanting to listen to it for a while.

I have about six versions as it is one of my favourite songs from my absolute favourite band of all time.

What do you think of The Cures version...Got to be the best cover of all time imo, I listen to it more than I do Joy Divisions version.

[Ibra-Gol!]

Foo Fighters - Skin and Bone
absolutely fantastic, possibly the best ive ever heard them

Bristol Bean - IMO Final Straw is better, and well worth a buy

Manumad - What have you got against Bon Jovi?? i asked you before but ever got a reply, and im interesred to know

[Grizfoot]

Loving Snow Patrol - Eyes Open at the moment. What do people think about their other albums, im thinking of getting Final Straw and When it's all over we still have to clear up, any comments would be appreciated :)
Final Straw is a brilliant album. Much better than Eyes Open, which is a bit of a let down compared to Final Straw.

Haven't heard the Cure's version. As much as I enjoy listening to The Cure, I don't think I'd want to hear it either. I think of Joy Division as religous folks think of God. The song is perfect enough for me. As you recommended it though, it would be rude not to check it out...

Well it's a little bit of a change in pace so you may just think they've murdered it, but let me know what you think anyway.

[*****_Rebel]

Hey, Could someone please reccomend a good complilation CD..
I was thinking: NME Presents Essential Bands 2006.. but if anyone knows better tell me cheers..

[MANUMAD]

Manumad - What have you got against Bon Jovi?? i asked you before but ever got a reply, and im interesred to know

Yeah, I remember ... didnt want to get into an argument cos taste is not something that you can persuade somebody to change ... Still since you insist Ill tell ya:

Along with people like Bryan Adams, Phil Collins, Dire Straits, Black Eyed Peas, Evanescence, Nickelback (plus a load of other "alternative" american bands who are anything but) they represent everything thats boring, one track/trick and vile about contemporary music.

[tottivillarossi]

Well its not Fact they are okish but i do not like thier attitude they have become arrogant and cokcy since the days of playing the grapes in sheffield .

would you not become a bit arrogant having the fastest-selling album ever in the UK?

[Ibra-Gol!]

Fair enough i wasnt going to debate with you, as you say, taste is individual, i was just curious

I like Neckelback too :D

[Oasis05]

Just been checking a few of the artists RG posted In the 'Poll 2007', I like The Klaxons, Heard some of there stuff before, I like Mika to although a bit poppy.

[tottivillarossi]

[Oasis05]

Haha, yeah- I was about to say that...

Saw them supporting DPT a while back. Weren't anything special to be honest.

[MUFC1990]

They have never broken through :p

This year there trying much harder it took pulp a while to make it big :)

[MUFC1990]

Another good point :)

[Superpig]

Shes a good singer but shes trying to act like some poor chav when she grew up in a nice area of London i just dont understand why she does it tbh .

Um, living in London, shes picked up the accent i spose? And not acting all rich and posh is a good thing, shes down to earth, saw her on Soccer AM a good while back, shes great.

[MUFC1990]

My fave track is the tub station song :D

Also im going to get that style council album too :p

[Rubbergenius]

Listening to some new songs that are about the web at the moment (http://hype.non-standard.net/ is your friend) - really liked the stuff by 'Fields' (http://www.fieldsmusic.co.uk/ - quite a lot to download from their official site) - and also new tracks by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Arcade Fire, The Good The Bad and The Queen, !!! and LCD Soundsystem.

To be honest, I think this year's going to a good one for quality music, and an expensive one for me with all of the stuff I'll be buying!

They have never broken through :p

This year there trying much harder it took pulp a while to make it big :)

I think the Pigeon Detectives would give up if it takes 15+ years to get to the top like it took Pulp ;)

I once went to a Pulp gig and there was only 35 people in the audience (about three years before Common People came out) - even when I saw the Pigeon Detectives early last year there were more in the audience than that!

[*****_Rebel]

and LCD Soundsystem.
Woah, someone else listens to House :clap: Tribulations is a great song by them :)

[jamie_cafc]

Costello Music is sounding pretty sexy at the moment (Fratellis album for those who don't know), also I've got Eminem - Nail in the coffin stuck in my head - cheers Daz!

Woah, someone else listens to House :clap: Tribulations is a great song by them :)

I like 'A View to a Kill' by Duran Duran

[Rubbergenius]

Been on a David Bowie fix today - quite a few months since I last really listened to him so it was good to go through his late 70s albums this morning and have a sing-along! Low, Heroes, Scary Monsters and Lodger all got played...

Chk chk chk :p

Haven't heard anything by them yet, might download the leaked album...

Yeah, chk chk chk is the one I'm used to. Got some earlier stuff by them which varies in quality but the new stuff seems more focused - a lot like a harder Hot Chip.

Carly Simon - The spy who loved me

Brilliant song - best ever Bond theme.

[petriiii]

I like 'A View to a Kill' by Duran Duran

Yeah it's really good also. I just didnt remember it. btw Specially the songs of Moore's Bonds are really good !

For me Duran Duran's best song is Ordinary World, but A View to a Kill is also really good

[charlton fan]

im listening 2 the kooks album inside in inside out, like 2 know what ppl think about it?

I think it's dreadful...

Still listening to a lot of the Clipse album I've raved about in the past.

Also Talking Heads today.

Well done Peer, David Bowie is totally amazing. Low is my favourite album, but they're all pretty special in their own way. I haven't heard all of them though and apparently one or two are rather naff.

[*****_Rebel]

[Leeds 4 eva]

just been listening to Ruby by Kaiser Cheifs


great new song:)

[petriiii]

I prefer to try to Listen Sean Lennon the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono ! It sounds little bit like Beatles, but lot more calm and he have such a beautiful voice and I think they have good lyrics.

Lyrics are maybe too sad EVEN for me, but I dont think it's problem it just make me happy to listen sad songs sometimes. There's a link for musicvideo from YouTube (Sean's musicvideos are a bit strange)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HudvacfE2DM

ps. Sean is looking funny, because he is mixture of John Lennon and Asian

[charlton fan]

ps. Sean is looking funny, because he is mixture of John Lennon and Asian :D Allways get good laught when I see his picture

That is kind of racist, you really shouldn't say things like that...

[petriiii]

That is kind of racist, you really shouldn't say things like that...

Racist ?? No! You have understood wrong. He just looks so much same as his Dad John, but then he still looks little bit like asian, because of her mother. Sorry again it's not easy to understand me rightly !

[< Andy >]

LMAO im loving meatloafs new album bat out of hell iii. Anyone else like meatloaf or like i expect only me? :p

[Sam.C]

Going old skool with Kiss, the police, and the jam. Also listening to greenday, strange I love their songs but I dont paticular like them. Also listening to Red Hot Chilli peppers, Dani california rules, what a song.

[Superpig]

Ghostface Killah- Fishscale: another great hip/hop album from 2006. Recommended.

[*****_Rebel]

Ghostface Killah- Fishscale: another great hip/hop album from 2006. Recommended. Of course Ghostface Killah! Styles P's new album is also very good...

[Bristol Bean]

The new Kaiser Cheifs song - Ruby, just come on the radio I can't stand it.

[tottivillarossi]

iv heard that the new kaiser cheifs album is awful! someone on kerrang! said it

[Rubbergenius]

Interesting to see how good to bad the Kaiser Chiefs album will be - didn't mind the debut album and while 'I Predict a Riot' has been played to death, it wasn't too bad. We'll see - it'll still sell millions though no matter whether it's great or terrible...

[tottivillarossi]

i can't wait to here the new funeral for a friend album!

[Ibra-Gol!]

Just completed my MUSE back catalogue...Hullaballoo soundtrack & Showbiz :D

[charlton fan]

www.myspace.com/thefancydressparty

Awwwww, that band are all about 13, but for their age, the music is very good. Much more interesting than The Kooks, Hard-Fi and Red Hot Chili Peppers put together.

Starting to like the new C0ck Party album- A Weekend in the City. Starts off very well and then goes a bit downhill- but a better album than I first thought. Will listen more soon. Hopefully will have better longitivity than the debut.

so thier not cool as they cant listen to the fruits of the greatest bands in leeds :D

[iTim]

I love Ruby!


Been listening to that along with a lot of The Smiths and Morrissey. They can't get played enough in my eyes:love:

[Spursbloke]

Whens the new Kaiser Chiefs album out?

[iTim]

Whens the new Kaiser Chiefs album out?February the 23rd I believe.

EDIT: Well I've seen somewhere 23/02/2007 but I read somewhere else they're planning on releasing something before Valentines day.

[Rubbergenius]

Peer is cool, he doesn't have MSN, silly :p.

I have MSN - I just don't give it out to just anyone - you have to be cool to get on my MSN list ;)

Listened to Ruby now, and I do like it - good chorus.

[charlton fan]

Just looking at your updated album purchase list Peer:
The Pixies - Surfer Rosa
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever to Tell
Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun

Three really great albums, well done.

Listened to LCD Soundsystem's new album- really really great.

[Bunjemark]

sort yer life out !!
Why does he need to sort his life out?
Just because he likes different music to you?
Just because something might be rubbish in your opinion doesn't mean he needs to sort his life out.

Each to their own:D

[Kirkey#11]

Been back into music for a bit now. Listening to a bit of dance (Cascada), Kasier chiefs and also some rap too! :)

[petriiii]

I just listened some old music again and I fall in love to Elvis, Duran Duran and The Eagles

[TrueBlue]

Oh Lord, Shab! Cascada are awful as are the Kaiser Chiefs! :p

If you're looking to get into a bit of the lighter side of dance moosic, try Bootyluv, DJ Rankin, DJ Cammy, MOS Dancenation, Floorfillers etc

As for Kaiser Chiefs just avoid them full stop.. Killers, Hot Chip, first Razorlight album, The View, Doves, Editors etc are all a lot better.

Listening to John Legend ATM, the older stuff like So High, Number 1, Stay With You.. choon.

[Kirkey#11]

I listen to Razorlight and Killers too but Kasier Chiefs aint exactly bad. Well not im my opinion.

Cascada is good, as well as DJ Rankin, DJ Cammy. I have them too on my playlist but just tend to listen to Cascada a bit more often.

[charlton fan]

2007 advances heard today:

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- Some Loud Thunder. Not blown away, but the first album warrants lots of attention. I will listen to this lots.

Deerhoof- Friend Opportunity. Moments of obscure pop brilliance.

Of Montreal- Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? This is really good, left me wanting to listen to it again- which I shall tomorrow.

[tottivillarossi]

lostprophets - everyday combat, tuuuuuuune

[Grizfoot]

Been listening to Jamie T, Good Shoes & The Good, the Bad and The Queen so far this week. All highly recommended :thumbs:

[jamie_cafc]

lostprophets - everyday combat, tuuuuuuune
All Lostprophets songs are ch00ns, fact.

[George Williams]

Been listening to Jamie T, Good Shoes & The Good, the Bad and The Queen so far this week. All highly recommended :thumbs:

I am off to see the wonderful Good Shoes next week, and I cannot wait.

I'm really looking forward to their debut album out on March 19th (same day as The Rakes second album)

and in April the 3rd Kings Of Leon album comes out :D

Ive stopped downloading leaked albums now I want to see if when I buy them, on the day they're released whether they sound better because Ive waited

[tottivillarossi]

All Lostprophets songs are ch00ns, fact.
not 'sway' it's like 10 minutes long and boring.

i'm listening too billy talent, anyone ever heard of these guys? they are amazing!

[Oasis05]

Just got hold of 'The View - Hats Off To The Buskers' at long last. Been waiting ages. Really like the sound of it so far. It was early last year Arctic Monkeys released 'Whatever people...' I think this is the same sort of Vibe, maybe not as good. But time will tell.

Also, 'Mika - Life In Cartoon Motion' Not usually my cup of Tea, but that tune 'Grace Kelly' is catchy as. No Doubt I'll hate it by the end of the week. Not so sure of the album so far, but then again only had a brief listen. I'll give it chance. Sounds like Freddie Mercury.

Last purchase, The Cure Greatest hits, absolutely brilliant, only really started listening to The Cure, Anyone recommend a album of theres?

Also, Strokes, Strokes and more Strokes. Again only recently began to listen to them. What an idiot I am.

[tottivillarossi]

that mika is f**king weird! and the video is just surreal

Have you ever actually listened to Sway??? Its amazing, its so like...chilled out and mellow :p They played it when i saw them in Wales, i was like the only person who knew the words.

Id have traded it for We Are Godzilla tho :/

[Bunjemark]

Alright Still - Lily Allen
Scream - Mark Joseph
Another Day - Lene Marlin

Everyday combat
Last train home
Cant stop gotta date with hate

Also just wondering jamie cfc and superpig if you like lost prophets do you like all american rejects?


Anyway by all american rejects ive been listening to .

Dirty little secrets

[MUFC1990]

I prefer the older LP stuff, apart from everyday combat, thats a tunnneeee.


Also just wondering jamie cfc and superpig if you like lost prophets do you like all american rejects?


Not really no, i find them a bit too "emo". I used to like them but went off them about a year ago...

[< Andy >]

Clubland 10....atm

[Oasis05]

Albums i have been listening to lately are...

One For The Road - Ocean Colour Scene
Live Acoustic at The Jam House - Ocean Colour Scene


I was there at The Jam House for that recording! and One for the road is amazing album!

[matt black twist]

listening to atm:

the 25 albums reccomended to me by george. morrisey, erm loads of random stuff, print is dead is good though

also got hold of reel big fish which is pretty good.

and incubus i have two albums which are worth a listen imo.

[tottivillarossi]

Have you ever actually listened to Sway??? Its amazing, its so like...chilled out and mellow :p They played it when i saw them in Wales, i was like the only person who knew the words.

Id have traded it for We Are Godzilla tho :/
did they play always all ways? i love that song!

i'm getting 4 albums at the weekend:
killswitch engage - as daylight dies
saosin - saosin
alexisonfire - crisis
billy talent - billy tallent

[Binary.Code]

At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Offspring, Simple Plan, Nickleback and Lostprophets, and the three songs I'm listening to the most are The Noose by the Offspring, Thank You by Simple Plan and Next Contestant by Nickleback. They're all ace :D;)

[tottivillarossi]

i don't rate nickelback to be honest

[*****_Rebel]

The albums I'm listening to are

Paul Oakenfold - A Lively Mind
Timo Maas - Pictures

[Superpig]

did they play always all ways? i love that song!


Nah they didnt, but they did play 4AM Forever, which was unexpected.... :/

[mtfc2life]

I believe thats 7....

I prefer the older LP stuff, apart from everyday combat, thats a tunnneeee.



Not really no, i find them a bit too "emo". I used to like them but went off them about a year ago...


Yeh i got carried away with some songs :p

i like the new and old theirs some great old ones especailly last train home ,to hell we ride and the fake sound of progress and burn burn

But the new ones i like everyday combat,4amforever and so on

Also i dotn think all american rejects are emo at all i supose maybe one or two song go in that direction but what p*sses me off is nowadays and song that has a fast rythm and eletric guitar is now classed as emo rock or something :mad: im not a chav or anything but i love rock/punkrock.



edit: just have to mention always always (apologies glances and messed up chances ) is a great choon :p.

[Ibra-Gol!]

i don't rate nickelback to be honest

Any reason?

I think that they are fantastic, their music has emotion in it, and their newer stuff is more versatile than the older stuff (such as Silver Side Up)

They were also fantastic live as well...

[mtfc2life]

I love nickelback have 3 albums

utt yeh i think thier music has emotion in it and like far away

best nickelback songs for me are


photograph
someday
how you remind me
far away
never again
animals


Must say animals is one hell of a tune!!! propa good rythm

[charlton fan]

Last purchase, The Cure Greatest hits, absolutely brilliant, only really started listening to The Cure, Anyone recommend a album of theres?

Pornography, Disintegration. You can't really go wrong with The Cure though.

Aaah man, the last album is the best by far!

I need to go listen to some...

[re_hashed]

The Album that is currently getting a severe battering in the car and ipod at the moment is

Jamie-T, Panic Prevention

such a grower, I love it !!

It comes highly reccomended my myself - you you better sit up and take notice :)

[MANUMAD]

The Dears- Gang of Losers

Totally different to the Morrisssey fixated and brill No Cities Left. Not always successful but around 5 tracks are real killers,

[Oasis05]

Pornography, Disintegration. You can't really go wrong with The Cure though.

Cheers Bud, may purchase one the weekend, I'm sure I'll pick em up pretty cheap at Music Zone or somewhere ;-)

Oasis - Up In The Sky (rare bootleg, live last year)
The View, albums really growing on me, specially first 5-6 tracks.

Have to say IMO, Kaiser Chiefs new tune 'Ruby' is laughable. Never rated them anyway.

Think Fall Out Boy's tune's ok, not usually my thing.

[MANUMAD]

Cheers Bud, may purchase one the weekend, I'm sure I'll pick em up pretty cheap at Music Zone or somewhere ;-)

If you re relatively new to The Cure I wouldnt advise you to buy Pornography as one of your first records of theirs as its quite difficult to get in.

By all means get Disintegration, Head on the Door, Japanese Whispers and The Kiss.

[Oasis05]

Well that's the second recommendation for Disintegration, but I'll have a good butchers. Like I said Im sure there'll be pretty cheap. My fav tunes of there's so far-

Pictures Of You
Just Like Heaven
Boys Dont Cry
Love Cats
In-between Days
Close To Me
Love song
Cut Here
Friday I'm In Love (who doesn't like this song?)

I'm guessing Ive chose the obvious ones?

Thanks for the advice.

[tottivillarossi]

fall out boy - snitches and talkers get stitches and walkers, chune!

[charlton fan]

Tokyo Police Club- A Lesson In Crime [EP]. Came out last year, but only started listening to it today. It's very good. Not sure if they have an album in the pipeline, but one to watch for '07.

[NEWCASTLE FAN]

I'm listening to Jack Penate at the moment, he's got a myspace page with a couple of songs on it. I reckon he's a good singer/songwriter and could make it big this year :) Or so I'd hope...

[charlton fan]

Marnie Stern- In Advance of the Broken Arm is amazing.

http://www.myspace.com/marniestern1

Great voice. Interesting record.

[Grizfoot]

Also check out this band called Los Campesinos!

http://www.myspace.com/LosCampesinos

Good stuff :thumbs:

[Oasis05]

Just watched an episode of scrubs. Absolutely awesome tune in it.

Boston - More Then A Feeling.


The air band.

[Sam.C]

Apart from the ones in my sig I'm listening to:

Razorlight - America
Coldlplay - Daylight
Radiohead - Pyramid Song

[George Williams]

Also check out this band called Los Campesinos!

http://www.myspace.com/LosCampesinos

Good stuff :thumbs:

Im sure I mentioned them ages ago

But yeh they are great

[*****_Rebel]

Coldlplay - Daylight
Which album is that from?

[*****_Rebel]

How's The Twang?

[Ireland7]

The Fratellis are quality

[MUFC1990]

The Long Blondes
The Noissetes
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Pulp
Good the bad and the queen - when i can download it :)

[Sam.C]

Which album is that from?

I think its Coldplays second album called A Rush of Blood to the Head

[jamie_cafc]

Breaking Benjamin are very good, listening to more of The View today too, lovely jubbly. Oh and Golden Skans = ch00n.

[tottivillarossi]

underoath - incredibly under-rated, give them a listen if you can stand a bit of screamo, pure quality

[MUFC1990]

Joy division - substance is a brilliant album for anyone that likes post punk :)

[charlton fan]

It's not an album. It's a compilation of various songs. Great stuff though. Nice to see another Joy Division fan on the forum. Get Unknown Pleasures and Closer and the Heart and Soul boxset and some live stuff.

[*****_Rebel]

I'm listening to Prodigy - The Fat of The Land
With songs like 'Smack My Bitch Up and good ol Firestarter, and Breathe!

[MANUMAD]

It's not an album. It's a compilation of various songs. Great stuff though. Nice to see another Joy Division fan on the forum. Get Unknown Pleasures and Closer and the Heart and Soul boxset and some live stuff.

Indeed - as well as Power Corruption and Lies, Brotherhood and Lowlife by New Order.

[tottivillarossi]

funeral for a friend - streetcar

[Oasis05]

New Order - Regret. Top tune!

Been checking out 'Clap Your Hands Say Yeah' this morning. They always seem to get a mention on here. Like the sound. A tune on the myspace profile is awesome 'the skin of my yell...'

[tottivillarossi]

i'm now listening too theAUDITION, great band, anyone who likes punk,pop,emo music you can dance too, or if you just like music, give them a listen!

[Oasis05]

Just got hold of Jamie T's Panic Prevention. Cant wait top have good listen to this. I love Sheila and If you've Got The Money.

[re_hashed]

Top album that Jamie T one - had it for a while and it's such a grower. I personally like Ike & Tina and Back in the Game (along with the obvious)

Currently listening to The View, not 100% sure what to make of them. They've got potential, I just get the feeling that they'll end up selling out like The Kooks who I can't stand. Hopefully they're not just another product of the "hype machine".

The Kooks are an average band at best, guilty of ripping their sound from others and getting a free ride on others prior success. The View seem to be a little more 'genuine', even though they do sound extremely like The Libertines (Superstar Tradesman - could sooo easily be done by Carl B & Pete D)

Sadly, these bands seem to be 10 a penny recently. The amount of un-original, souless, flash in the pan bands that you'll have forgotten about this time next year is sickening ............ take The Arctic Gobshytes for example.

i like the arctic monkeys, the view are annoying me at the moment, yet they seem more addictive then what they should

[*****_Rebel]

Hey, I'm looking for something different: I was thinking Jamie T any other suggestions?
Cansei de Ser Sexy is also im looking into..

[re_hashed]

I think that Jamie-T is a must have in a record/CD collection - you need a bit of everything.

With regard to others then here are a few that I would recommend:

The Rifles - No Love Lost
The Klaxons - Worth A Go
Amy Winehouse - Back to Black
Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere
The Fratellis - Costello Music


and if you want something a little more 'relexed' then go for Ryan Adams.

And obviously which goes without saying - The Libertines by The Libertines (or Up The Bracket, that's nearly as god)

Include ...... The Best Of Groove Armada, and Stop the Clocks by Oasis and you're all set for the basis of a pretty decent CD Collection!

[*****_Rebel]

Thanks for that post! :thumbs:
Of course I know Groove Armada, I have Costello Music that's class, I like the look of The Kalxons! :D

[charlton fan]

And obviously which goes without saying - The Libertines by The Libertines (or Up The Bracket, that's nearly as god)


What? Up the Bracket is way better. UTB is like one of my favourite albums of ever and The Libertines is like meh...it's ok.

juve_rule: definitely check out Cansei de Ser Sexy.

Been listening to Slint- Spiderland: amazing post rock.

[MUFC1990]

Indeed - as well as Power Corruption and Lies, Brotherhood and Lowlife by New Order.

yes , it says on wikipedia that new order are basically the same but without Ian curtis for obvious reasons ....


What are they like because ian curtis may have been the main writer and they may have changed alot :)


Didnt they do world in motion for england 1986 world cup ?

[charlton fan]

Don't listen to Wikipedia. They're completely different bands, hence the name change...

I don't really like New Order, but I can appreciate their contribution to music and may be worth you checking out.

[Rubbergenius]

I'm the New Order fan around here - loved them since I was a kid. Get Low Life, Brotherhood and Technique, they are absolutely top drawer. Brotherhood is my favourite, but most fans tend to like Technique a bit more as it's more dancier/poppier.

They are indie-rock/pop but they had some brilliant melodies, some absolutely terrible lyrics (but they always sang them tongue-in-cheek - "Every little counts, when I am with you, I think you are a pig, you should be in a zoo") but killer songs. Different to Joy Division; Joy Division is middle of the night in a dank flat in Stockport, New Order is the sun going down in Ibiza while sitting on a bar terrace drinking lager.

Anyway - new-released albums for this week - The Good, The Bad and The Queen, I'm liking a lot, could be the first album of the year that'll feature in my "best of...", also got the new album by Field Music (intelligent pop from Mackems), Six Parts Seven (lovely relaxed post-rock), Yndi Halda (bloody intense GYBE post-rock), and the debut album by an LA band called The Broken West, which sounds like the Byrds mixed with Teenage Fanclub.

Also listening to Of Montreal's new one, downloaded the Bloc Party single, and I'll even try a bit of The View as I quite enjoyed the singles. And next week we'll have the Shins and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah albums - great to have new release albums back with us after a couple of months away...

But best of all - finally downloaded the White Stripes debut album from 1999, the only one I didn't have - criminal that I'd never had this before. It's genius.

[*****_Rebel]

juve_rule: definitely check out Cansei de Ser Sexy.
I definately will :).. An I like RG's defination of New Order..

Great definition of new order there, Brotherhood is probably my fave as well, I really like Power, Corruption and Lies as well and Movement is pretty good though it is more Joy Divisionish than their other records.

Picked up Audioslave's latest yesterday and was thouroughly disappointed, no where near as good as their first 2, also got Neil Young's After the Goldrush which I am really enjoying and have rediscovered Scarfo's Luxury Plane Crash from way back, well worth a listen if you can get your hands on it.

Sadly, these bands seem to be 10 a penny recently. The amount of un-original, soulless, flash in the pan bands that you'll have forgotten about this time next year is sickening ............ take The Arctic Gobshytes for example.


The fastest selling début album since Definitely Maybe, cant really Call The Arctic Monkeys A flash in the pan. They're are a great band. Everything they've released has been great, even there B-sides have been top, witch to me says alot about a band.

the fratellis - costello music, amazing album

[MANUMAD]

yes , it says on wikipedia that new order are basically the same but without Ian curtis for obvious reasons ....


What are they like because ian curtis may have been the main writer and they may have changed alot :)


Didnt they do world in motion for england 1986 world cup ?

Im with RG on this one (and shocked that a man with as much taste as Charlton Fan has doesnt love them). They are one of my 4/5 favourite bands of all time (along with The Smiths, Nirvana, Joy Division and The Velvet Underground).

Most of their output has been AWESOME.

a) Movement (by far their weakest album), Power, Corruption and Lies, Lowlife and Brotherhood all have a lot in common with Joy Division but are lighter in tone.

In fact since Ian Curtis passed away they were getting further away from the JD blueprint with every release.

b) Technique is their poppiest and most accessible album.

c) Substance 1 and 2 as well as the Box Set contain probably their best music.

d) Their last two albums, Regret (if memory serves) and ... (memory completely f*cked) are quite upbeat.

e) Yes they did the best footy song ever: World in Motion, as well as the most successful 12 inch record ever (the seminal Blue Monday -since remixed a number of times).

New Order, Great band. Love 'True Faith', 'Regret' - One of me favourite tunes.

Had an awesome night last night, sat in my Awesome chair, turned the lights off, loaded up LMA and listened to The Good, The Bad And The Queen, as much as I despise Albarn I think he's come up tops here, great line up, great to hear Simon Tong back at the strings. My stand out track '80's Life'. Purely awesome.

Been Listening to The Klaxons this morning 'Xan Valleys' EP, really like the sound of these, funky stuff, a tad like Bloc Party I'd say. Wonna hear a ****ing banging tune then check out 'Atlantis To Interzone'

The Automatic - Raoul
Zamfir - The Lonely Shepherd (One for the movie buffs. QT)
David Bowie - Modern Love

A pal of mine in a good band, making alot of noise around brum 'Electric Animals' made alot of Hype in the 90's but never quite made it, But there back and reformed.

I urge you to Take 3mins to listen to 'Just Plain Stupid'

I'm going to listen to Klaxons' debut album in a minute, as soon as it's finished downloading. It leaked last night, but managed to hold out quite a while. Don't have very high expectations- only really like Golden Skans.

I'm dwning it aswell right now! :D Mine's on 46%

[charlton fan]

Three tracks in, only really like Golden Skans. Might be a grower, as I wasn't very familiar with their demos...

Gravity's Rainbow is a good song, is that on it?

[Spursbloke]

I've been hearing loads about this new kid Mika, apparently he's a lot like Freddy Mercury. Anyone reckon I should take a listen?

The fastest selling début album since Definitely Maybe, cant really Call The Arctic Monkeys A flash in the pan. They're are a great band. Everything they've released has been great, even there B-sides have been top, witch to me says alot about a band.

I still honestly beleive that the Arctics are a flash in the pan - despite what you quite corectly point out, their album is the fastest selling album since Definitely Maybe.

Def Maybe came out in 1994, then Oasis followed it up a year later with the mighty Morning Glory

It's been a year since The Monkey's first album (a year yesterday actually) so lets see what their second album is like shall we. I bet you that it's not a patch on their first one, and doesn't even come close to the quality of Morning Glory (or Whatever People Say I Am)

If ....... and only if, the Monkeys can produce a 2nd album of something resembling quality music then I myself will be astounded.

Let's wait till April of this year to see what their second album brings, yeah it's probably going to go in at number 1 due to all the indie scensters that will rush out and buy it on the first day for some reason.

There are better bands than them around in the UK, in fact there are better bands in Sheffield at the moment at what they do, they're just 4 ordinary 19 yr olds who make slightly catchy indy music with the occasional humrous lyrics.

But anyway ........

'slightly catchy' bit of an understatement. There a top band. There second album will be great. Look what they released shortly after the album. 'Who The ****...' 4 more great tunes, that would have been good enough for the album. Also 'Leave before the lights come on' Awesome tune.

Not in the league Of Oasis, yet. But are a top band with real talent. Thy tell it how it is, they've got the Rock swagger and bit of cockyness to go with it. Nice to see some one with some *******s nowadays.

There here for the long run, I bet my life on it.

[re_hashed]

Hmmmmm, and what makes you the Guru of music all of a sudden.

I think that The Arctic Monkeys are tosh, have been pushed to the max by Smash hi ....... sorry The NME, causing all the indie scenesters to rush out and buy their records making it the fastest selling album .... yadda yadda yadda.

I don't think that they'll still be doing what they're doing come this time next year.

There are now other bands that the NME (and such like) are pushing such as The View, who will suffer the same fate.

They are hyped up to the max in order to cash in some seriously quick money for the record producers. It's all a PR game, with them hiding behind a band that are young enough to be pushed around.

[Oasis05]

I completely agree with your view of NME, I thought I was the only one who's not a fan.

But I don't choose to not like bands because of over advertising. (I'm not implying you do)

Nowadays I let my ears decide.

You honestly think that the Arctic are going to be anywhere in the same league as Oasis ? (not having a go m8)

Bands such as Kasabian are taking the batton from Oasis, and are going to run with it for quite a while.

I think they have the potential to be a 'big band', maybe not in the League of Oasis. And I seriously hope Kasabian take the batton from Oasis. I just think alot more people need to come round to them. They are a great band, awesome frontman, awesome musicians.

[re_hashed]

Lets leave it at that then - you either like some music or don't, flippin boring if everything was the same yeah. It's an 'argument' that could run and run, and I aint into that, plus this isn't the place to be doing it.

I'll wait and see what happens, maybe I'll be proved wrong, and if that is the case then I'll hold my hands up and admit it.

It's been done on this thread before by myself. Initially I HATED Razorlight, and especially Johnny Borrell, but saw them live at V Festival last year I think it was and now think that they are a cracking band - Still think that Borrell is a complete and utter pretentious wa****r though :)

[Oasis05]

agreed. I wasn't a fan until they released 'Somewhere else', loved the tune, decided to give them a chance. Bought 'Up All Night' re-release with somewhere else on it for £5. Bargain. Fantastic album. Fav track 'To The Sea'.

Also seen them at V this year. Was brilliant. Kasabian made my weekend. I'll never forget all the fans walking back to the tents singing LSF, all the way from the stage. Awesome.

By any chance did you go Weston park ?

[re_hashed]

Nahh I'm a Hylands Park man myself, not all that far to travel from home y'see.

I wouldn't mind a weekend at Weston Park, seems a better type of crowd. Mind you I suppose the chippy little chavs in Hylands, would just be replaced by little Liam Gallaghers and Scallys up North - still everyones there for the same reason (what ever that is ..... )

[Oasis05]

Too right lol.

Met some fellow Brummies there. They thought I was a manc at first. Muppets. Mind you they were from Solihull (rather posh).

Anywho I'm off to eat my home made Balti. The anticipations been killing me.

Nice chatting to ya. ;)

[Haggath]

I am currently listening to Fallout Boys new album is mint so far :D
