You and Stevie H should get together.

You and Stevie H should get together.

We'd get on like a house on fire. And I'd be the house.

 

Currently listening to The Fall - Telephone Thing, after hearing about them FAR too many times on here.

Richmond Fontaine, Thirteen Cities. Excellent, but about as bright and cheery as the weather.

Verdict?

Verdict?

Good. I also watched "Blindness" from Jools Holland Show on Youtube, which wasn't so great. He sounded a little strained.

More than usual I meant! Though it was a s*** live video. Currently listening to to them on The Tube, on Youtube. Is it me, or there a little Pixies in them (or vice versa)?

The Fall invented every strain of modern music.

More of a Vybz Kartel man, myself.

 

Whats your stance on the 'death to homosexuals' element of theirs and Elephant Mans (and others) lyrics?

[Bailo]

But what genre would they fall into?

Um...I hate it. Does that stop dancehall being sonically amazing? No.

[Des]

They're a folk band.

Jesus Christ Des.

 

1. 'Sonically amazing'. ffs.

 

2. Dancehall is a tremendous hoop-la of turgid sh*te. The only amazing thing about it is how it emerged from the rubble of someone's imagination anus.

Ali Farke-Toure - Savanne this morning haven't heard it for a while great album

Some of it is musically very good indeed I agree. The problem I have with a lot of it is that I find myself and others hypocritical for condoning the content with the copout of how good the sounds are, same with a lot of hip-hop. Things do seem to be changing slowly with Buju Banton toning things down, although whether this is a financial decision is debatable.

I know it's not as inventive and innovative as Standing On The Shoulder of Giants, but it tries.

[Mike]

don't like dancehall at all

For whatever reason it's done, it's welcome.

Right up there with the most cretinous of all your posts. Well done.

 

'Cultural differences' eh?

[Des]

[matty]

Quite.

[Des]

Quite.

 

I'll clarify. What the f*ck are you talking about?

[Will]

United By Fate by Rival Schools, which isn't very good at all
