I bought Roots Manuva - Awefully deep today (well yesterday lol), first in 2 months or so. Really good, loving Chin High though:thumbs:

Alos listening to a bit of "Up All Night" by Razorlight which I got for christmas, Vice is cool:)

I was going to buy Doves- some Cities today, but thought I'd go for Roots, since Cossal Insight was good when I first heard it.

Think my next album will be Doves -some Cities or Mylo - Destroy Rock And Roll, I've heard the song of the same name as that, and that I like!:D

It's slightly off my taste in Rock, but from what I've seen they have made pretty good impact. I've seen a couple of video's they've done with mixed ratings for them really. The "i'm not Okay" (?) is fair good imo while "Helen/Helena/something along those lines" is a bit iffy. Sorry i'm not positive on either name of the songs, you will probably be able to correct me on that!

I was in Virgin yesterday and they had this offer on. Me and my Dad usually take advantage of these 'too good to resist' offers, and we did. It was 5 for £30 on various CDs and DVD's, so we got: Stereophonics- Performance and Cocktails, Thin Lizzy- Greatest Hits, The Album Vol. 3 (Good compilation) and The Smashing Pumpkins- Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

I have always known about The Smashing Pumpkins without knowing any of their songs. I have been listening to the album as much as possible since getting it now. Believe me, it is absolutely stunning. I would say it is one of the best rock albums from the 90's. Very, very recommended.

What do you think of it?

Plastic California is a choooon, I used to love that album. Just Looking and Roll Up and Shine - brilliant.

Stopped to Fill My Car Up is probably my fave song on that album, although very depressing :D

Seeph

16-04-2005, 09:22 AM

It's good live as well, was when I saw them anyway (good few years back now mind)

Had like a massive extended outro. If you can find the Live at Morfa Stadium dvd/video it's on there as well.

NEWCASTLE FAN

16-04-2005, 09:24 AM

Yeah, I've got that.
One of my favourite Stereophonics songs is "Home to Me" but it was never on one of their albums, it was a b-side to A thousand tree's, as far as i can remember.

Ever heard it?

Seeph

16-04-2005, 09:27 AM

Nae, not heard that one.

My fave is Too Many Sandwiches, I went off them big time after Performance and Cocktails though. New stuff supposed to be good though

NEWCASTLE FAN

16-04-2005, 09:30 AM

Yeah Too Many Sandwhiches is a great tune, makes me laugh. lol.

The new album (Language, Violence, Sex, Other?) is excellent, but completely different to the other ablums, much more rock based than the older, slower songs. Definataly worth a listen in my oppinion! :)

16-04-2005, 06:04 PM

The best Stereophonics song there has been was Local Boy in the Photograph. Everything else just doesn't seem to do it for me.

I am not a big fan of the Stereophonics, some of their early stuff is okay but they just never appealed to me

I just bought Antics by Interpol today, and its the best record I have heard in ages, they sound like Joy Division crossed with Spiritualised

Charlton fan, if you like Mellon Collie you should get the first 2 Pumpkins albums, Gish is brilliant but it is not as heavy as Mellon Collie, and Siamese Dream is great, its more similar to Mellon Collie

Just bumping this one back up.

Was listening to the Killers the other day and found how good they sound at stupidly high volume. Quality! Hugely recomended at the moment.

Other than that, Music for the Jilted Generation has seen my CD player a few times recently, along with some Lostprophets and U2 (quality!) so its been a bit varied of late.

Just tried The Killers really loud: quality Dan :thumbs: (you know what should be there).

I have just been shuffling through all 1923 songs on my iPod at the moment.

The new Eels album is class. I'm eagerly anticipating, the new albums from Coldplay, The White Stripes, The Foo Fighters and of course Maximo Park. If you haven't heard of Maximo Park, I suggest you do something about it. They are so good. They have a number of really catchy tunes. They're also British, which is a good thing.

Other good British bands at the moment are: The Longcut and The Cribs.

A top band nonetheless.

Which Bright Eyes album have you got? He brought two out on the same day, I got the Digital Ash one, it's all electronicy, really different to his other stuff.

I want to get his other one but not sure if it's any good

PS Saw Moco last May! Remember thinking they were a bit shat but I'd been drinking all day and wanted Babyshambles to hurry up and get on stage so probably not the best judge

Good work.

Been listening to this since i got it on Monday. It's not as instantly likable as Toxicity and not as dark and hard as SOAD, but it's a progression. They are still a little unbalenced and know how to write and thrash out a good tune.

Just hope they are just as good live, we'll see in the MEN, eh?

Absolutely :) Can't wait. They seem to have kept their randomness side to them still which I like, for example one song like BYOB is one of the most political songs out there, while a song or two later they are shouting about how his willies bigger than mine. Thoroughly enjoyable album besides the first Hollywood one.

Made myself a SOAD CD for the car- Chic n Stu, Prison Song, Aerials, Roulette, Toxicity, BYOB, Radio/Video, Chop Suey, Bounce, Violent Pornography, Cigaro and Revenga. Jobs a goodun!

Oh yes, standing is the ONLY ticket to have for a SOAD ticket, i've sat down for a gig in the MEN before (it was Limp Bizkit) and it just wasn't the same....but the ticket was free, so i wasn't too bothered.

I make album tapes, the one in my car has SOAD on one side, and Toxicity on the other. I'll have to make some more tapes soon...

Arcade Fire really are something else live, their support was this chap called Final Fantasy who was just him, his violin and a sampler pedal and he built up this massive sound gradually by sampling himself as he went, it was astonishing

God, this thread back from the dead.

Maximo Park album is the latest greatest thing I've bought. Very cool tracks - not as good as The Futureheads debut but there's some cracking singles on there. 'Apply Some Pressure' is single of the year so far for me.

Also bought an old Wire album (Pink Flag) from 1977 as well, but I doubt many people would know them - very strange punk/postpunk band. Wote the template that was copied by many punky bands today.

Don't mind the Libertines at all - both of their albums are cool, second one slightly better.

EDIT: And I can't wait for the new White Stripes album, out next week...

I can't wait either. If the first single is anything to go by, it's going to be awesome. I am going to buy it because of their previous four being so fantastic.

Foo Fighters' new one should be good too. It has to be something special when the lead singer declares it as their best work. It sounds interesting, it being half accoustic and half non-accoustic.

The White Stripes is brilliant. Some top rock songs. De Stijl is just as good as White Blood Cells (My favourite of the four). It is a more bluesy album but still really good stuff. Both come recommended.

OK cool, I've read a couple of reviews saying overproduced, someone even said sounded like elevator music! Not seen the NME review yet though I expect they will give it a kicking as it's probably not "fashionable" enough for them anymore.

Mind you they loved the White Stripes album and that's anything but fashionable!!! It's a really odd one, the songs just about shine through, but it reminds me of a lot of the acousticy ones I tend to skip on older albums, I like the bluesy guitar ones and they're a bit thin on the ground on the new LP

Should be interesting; he's up on stage just before midnight, so I should be pretty wasted by then and I'll probably think the music's good no matter what.

I do have a strange feeling that this may be the one and only time that I listen to 'Waiting Room' though . . .

I have Appetite for Destruction. Wouldn't really recommend it. All their decent songs are on the Greatest hits.

I've been absolutley hammering my ears with The White Stripes, in preperation for the new album (Get behind me Satan) (Out Monday). My favourite album of theirs is, De Stijl closely followed by White Blood Cells. Then is the infamous Elephant closely followed by The White Stripes. I don't think there is a single song from the 60 I have, that I don't like. Super, super band.

Alan Fletcher - Waiting Room

*Potential Neighbours spoiler*

His rendition of 'Obviously' by kiddie group McFly, in which he wittingly change the lyrics to:

"It's obviously Susan for me . . ."

*End of potential Neighbours spoiler*

He also sang Hey Jude, and some other track which I just caught the end of.

Buy the album - In the Waiting Room - now!

Lyrics / track previews / band information / sales at www.alanfletcher.net

I also got a personally signed copy of the album, which I bought for only £10.

And for the Neighbours fans, I ask how he managed to make two phone calls prior to having a heart attack - he had no comment . . .

Alan Fletcher (Waiting Room) - In the Waiting Room - buy it now at all good music stores!

Five Minutes With The Arctic Monkeys single out now but it sold out basically straight away, was limited edition, check how much they're going for on eBay already!!! I got the 7", be keeping that safe!!

Not sure about an album yet

05-06-2005, 11:49 PM

After properly listening to the album - In the Waiting Room - I can say that I am actually quite surprised that it is actually quite good. :eek:

There are a few songs that stick out, and have an 'earworm' effect - such as 'I'm in this Thing' and 'Mattress on the Floor' (which I'm currently using as my ringtone for the time-being ;)), and for the Liverpool fans, his version of 'You'll Never Walk Alone' isn't too bad either.

Alan Fletcher could become the male equivalent of Kylie!
The guy is simply a legend already!

A big day, today in terms of music purchases. My Dad loves Coldplay so of course had to have their new album. He got me Get Behind me Satan while he was at the shop. My mate also gave me Don't Believe the Truth to put on my iPod.

The new Coldplay album, is as expected, unbelievable. I haven't listened to it much, but it's all good from the first few playings. Haven't listened to Oasis once so I'll talk about that later. Get behind me Satan is brilliant. As Seeph has been telling me, it's very different to their other stuff, but it's still great. I recommend both of these.

I've got all the GNR albums (yes, hard to believe but I used to love my RAWK music).

Appetite For Destruction is a real rock n' roll album, great debut and the tracks are very good. Sweet Child O' Mine is pretty terrible but it's the kind of thing you would like SF...

Then there's the EP/mini-album called Lies - fantastic if you like dark and dirty rock, even the two more acoustic numbers, Patience and One in a Million are really cracking tunes (One in a Million was infamous for being -phobic to every group of people you could mention - foreigners, gay people, women etc). It's not the first album you should buy from them but worth the fiver it'll cost.

Then there's Use Your Illusion 1 and 2 - both released the same day in 1991 (ah, I remember that day...). Both are completely overblown stadium rock with loads of ballads - there's some great stuff to be found among the also-rans. For the better rock stuff go for number 1, for the power ballads go for number 2.

Then finally there's the Spagetti Incident mini-album which really isn't that great, it's just an album of old punk song covers.

I'd go for Appetite first, or try the Greatest Hits and see which ones you like.

I'm slightly non-plussed with Coldplay, got it about a week before release so have given it a good few listens. All sounds a bit too similar, too much pipe organ!

Listened to the White Stripes album on iTunes and I have to say I do like it a lot. There's some weirdness going on in there (Little Ghost) and some that that aren't the best (Instinct Blues) but the general standard is excellent. My Doorbell, Blue Orchid, The Denial Twist Red Rain (sounding remarkably like Led Zeppelin), even the very scary little tune Passive Manipulation are all top quality.

A lot of the tracks remind me of the Beggars Banquet album by The Rolling Stones (great album from the late 1960s). Really good album so far - looking forward to purchasing it later this week - might take a long lunch tomorrow to pick it up.

One thing about the NME link above - the review mentions a song called The Wreck. Is that on the album as it's not listed on iTunes or the Amazon listing?

charlton fan

07-06-2005, 09:08 PM

Nope, no song called The Wreck. There's no ridiculously long songs either, so it's not a hidden track.

the White Stripes new album is great, I got it yesterday but I still prefer De Stijl, I think that is their best

I also got the raveonettes - Pretty In Black which is brilliant, its like 50's/60's American music Phil Spector sort of sound
and the latest Audioslave album, not as good as the first one but still quite good and I am going to see them in Manchester on the 24th :)

Yea my mate's going to that, at the MEN Arena. I'll be at Glasto. :)

Quite looking forward to The Raveonettes album, I liked their first one but the last one didn't really do it for me. I'll give it a try though

Get Behind Me Satan is really growing on me, but you're right, it can't really touch De Stijl. I love their debut as well

The Ramones - Anthology (58 tracks!) - Its a great album with lots of tracks over 2 CDs and a great buy for £6.97 from Music Zone! Get it if you like Rock

Ryan Adams - Gold - Another great album, packed with 17 songs! Which is over 70mins. This is a kind of country rock music or light rock. Very Good though!

And today i bought:

Coldplay - X&Y - WOW, what an album, my friends having been saying how good it was and i had heard a few songs already! All of the tracks are good, especially What If, Talk, Speed of Sound and Til' Kingdom Come (the extra track!)

I would recommend all of these albums!

Finally got De Stijl at the weekend and it's fantastic - brilliant bluesy rock stuff. It's going to be a fixture on my MP3 player from now on...

After watching Live 8 yesterday , my Dad convinced me to listen to some Pink Floyd , so I got Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon. Not listened to it all yet , but theres some pretty different stuff on thier.

Yeah i'm sort of the same with Motorhead, I only know them from episodes of the Young Ones and the only track I knew of them was the Ace of Spades. But I saw a show they did at Download Fest I think it was and i've got into them recently.

Purchased the new Gatecrasher Classics album t'other day. Not usually my sort of thing, though I don't have any particular specific taste in music really, just saw the advert and it stuck me.

Tis good.

Actually me and our lass fancied getting that - dance around the lving room while getting ready to go out on a Friday to some old classics!

I used to DJ at Gatecrasher you know...*

I used to visit Republic loads too, bet i've been in during on of your "gatecrasher" sets!!

It was all rather funny when gatecrasher took off as I'd been going to it months prior to it's main stream popularity!

I had a period of going Thursday, Friday and Saturday night!!

I think your probably missing outon lots of good tracks, just because there not released as singles doesnt mean there not good!

I would buy there albums, maybe when they go down in the sale, because the Scissor Sisters one is great. My favourite track apart from Take your mama is Tits on the radio!

True, but why buy an album, spending £15 and find out there is only 4 songs out of 20 that you like? I rather just download tracks I know that are good for free, rather than buying an album for £15 and seeing if there are any hidden gems on an album.

What i tend to do is buy borrow an album off my mates copy and then if its really good buy it when it goes down in the sale, obviously i lend some to my mates. But I only buy the ones i really want.

Yep :p

I resent paying £10 - £15 for a CD. So if i do it like this then buy them real when there cheaper!

I think the music industry should make CD's cheaper, about £5 - £7. Because more people would buy them so they would still make the same amount of money if not more and this would lower file sharing!

I think the music industry should make CD's cheaper, about £5 - £7. Because more people would buy them so they would still make the same amount of money if not more and this would lower file sharing!

If they did lower the prices it certainly would lower file sharing, theres not too much you can do with £5 - £7, so people would just go out and buy a CD if the music industry lowered the prices, but I can't see the prices being lowered, as all industries are, the music industry is money hungry. Unfortunantly.

Picked up the Offspring's Greatest Hits on Monday, well worth the dosh. Classic songs to put on first include Track 3 (Self Esteem) and Track 9 (The Kids Aren't Alright). Track 5, All I Want, is a great adrenaline-fueled 2 minute track, which might sound familiar to those who had/have Crazy Taxi.

Right now that sits happily in my 3-cd system alongside Faithless' Greatest Hits and one of the two CDs from the Teenage Kicks compliation :thumbs:

Can't really get into this. I saw him on Jools Holland a few of weeks back and the song he played was guff, left me thinking, if that's the best you've got to offer, oh dear

Can't remember what it was called but the one he's got out at the moment does my nut in as well!

Good album that is. I heard it was voted one of the best albums of all time (actually I can't remember where it was but I know it was high up on one of those top 100 programmes)

Anyway I'm not fussed about what music I like, but my favourite types are pop, reggae and a bit of rock (not hardcore grunge rock that makes you depressed and have hair down to your knees) more like Queen etc.

I don't like any of this urban crap though

Bah! I saw them in concert (having never heard of them - the support band attracted me) and me and my mates didn't like them and didn't even stay for the whole concert :o

Mind you the amount of farmer look-a-likes in cowboys hats with banjos was enough to scare anyone off!

I'm in a massive White Stripes mood at the mo and listening to their first two albums a lot, and the live in Blackpool DVD is probably the best thing ever.

MANUMAD

21-07-2005, 09:45 AM

Ocean Colour Scene are beyond crap!!! Boring dad rock.

For me its the usual suspects: Get Behind Me Satan, Coldplay plus the amazing Here Comes the Tears and the surprisingly good (dont laugh-open your mind) Gwen Stephani new album which Ive borrowed from my gf.

Also Vitalic's new album is quite amazing.

A MAJOR recommendation: Arcade Fire- Funeral

Big time, Arcade Fire haven't been off my stereo since April. Have you got their first EP? I randomly saw it in Virgin last week, I think it's a re-issue as the originals were going for megabucks on eBay. It's not as good as Funeral but interesting nonetheless.

And I'm not having any of that Ocean Colour Scene bashing - Marching Already was one of my favourite albums when I was younger!

I only have Funeral which is amazing, as is Gorillaz' Demon Days and of course Bloc Party's Silent Alarm btw.

Oh and I stand firm about OCS- they are boring, retro dad rock.

As for Kings of Leon THEY ROCK!!!! Sexy groovy rocking music par excelence.

I had the unforgettable pleasure of watching Donnie Darko yesterday. While it is a stunning film in many respects, I thought the soundtrack was particularly brilliant (ha, you all thought I was posting in the wrong thread :P).

I thusforth decided to browse through my Dad's huge music collection for some of the songs. The theme for the music is 80's Alternative. I have therefore been listening to classics from the likes of Echo and The Bunnymen, Joy Division, Tears for Fears and The Church. Great stuff....

If you've all got some cash go and get The Back Room by Editors. I know I've been bigging them up for ages but it gets better with every listen, I've had it for a couple of months now and I still listen to it almost daily

Stephen Fretwell - Magpie

Not too sure what to think of this just yet, but I am enjoying the tracks 'Play' and 'New York'.

Think it's one that will grow on me as I listen to it more - nothing special though from a guy that (I think) is described as the songwriters' songwriter.

Anyway the new CD by THE HOT HOT HEAT (called ELEVATOR if memory serves) is a thing of beauty and catchy as the crabs (ask your naughty uncle)... I CANT RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY ENUFF.

One problem with the album, now I've got no problem with swearing in songs, but it sounds very out of place in this album. It's as if it like he has put it in to look 'hard'. Which is pretty stupid I reckon, still, not to take away from an excellent album :)
