Are they a heavy metal group? They must be with a name like that. |

the intro to 'money to nothing' by dire straits is very....special.-seriously, sting whispers 'i want my mtv', theres a heap of prog rock guitar distortion in the background, and then a marathon drum solo leaps down your ear shafts. dire strats has to be one of the BEST bands ever. |

I love Sultans of Swing and can say so with my head held high between my knees. |

im sorry. im in a daft mood today. and because of the bank holiday, im still unsure if its wednesday or tuesday. but my serious fav intro has to be the fade out of back in the ussr and then the fade in of dear prudence from the white album. its lovely lovely lovely. |

walk of life got me through my adolescence. just listen to the lyrics in dark times.... |

The dynamics of Dire Straits songs are a work of genius. Check the slow build ups in tracks like Telegrapgh Road, Private Investigations, On Every Street. These are life-affirming. |

jonesy: you are asking seriously? Haven't listened to Godflesh? Oh, jesus, the ignorance of the masses. And I bet you've listened to Pitchshifter because they are from your town and they are only a Godflesh wanabe clone. |

Meho: I've heard of them but don't like that European crap. English rock is the only rock worth listening to. And my home town is Cardiff which brought you Shakin Stevens. |

ken: you must know godflesh, they are from birmingham. |

ive heard of them but nothing by them sorry-but hey!! brum gave violent birth to duran duran and 'we've got a fuzzbox and we're gonna use it'....???? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fuzzbox?! I saw one of their singles on the weekend at a carboot sale. Pink Sunshine - classic. I didn't buy it, despite the temptation. I bought Nightmares on Wax 'Smoker's Delight' for 50p - bargain or what?! |

Mark Knopfler's ex-wife used to teach me drama at secondary school! And, apparently, the song Romeo and Juliet was about her. Just to make matters weirder, the headmaster at my school was the brother of Michael Eavis, the guy who organises Glastonbury. Weird or what?! |
||||||||

Yeah, and to Extreme Noise Terror and Napalm Death as well, and Godflesh are a kind of early ND offshot, their leader used to play guitar in ND and drums in Head of david later. Their music, I admit, has a lot of metalic influences but is the only significant inheritor of early industrial music of the late 70s. Streetcleaner intro has this serial killer saying: I didn't hear voices. It was a conscious decision on my part" etc. Scary fucking shit and then the drums and guitar feedback kick in. I feel like shooting up fucking adrenaline every time I hear it. |
||||||||

jonesy -that is a bargain, and yes pink sunshine is nice, but imagine if pink sunshine REALLY existed? just think about it. your not laughing now are you? manicminer-your school sounds great-an educational institution whose staff MUST be related to someone famous. all of the staff at my school had famous pets... |
||||||||
|

|
|
best intro would have to be "get ready for this" by 2 Unlimited for sure |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol!!!! are you ready for this?? good one cherub rock by the smashing pumpkins has a great intro, though |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know TOO many excellent intros... I can't mention them all now... but I might have some time to spare on it later. Plaid usually have some great intros, as well as BoC. Did I mention Plaid kicks ass? ;) |

Photek-Axiom Some dark sounds creep towards you and suddenly a silenced gun goes of three times and you hear the shells land on the floor. Masterfull!!!! That gun sample is from Goodfellas when Joe Pechi wacks Samuel Jackson in his apartment. |

Hi ken, I'm happy that there is somebody who knows Black dog. Most people don't know that Plaid is involved. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hello mate!!-yes black dog were wicked-bytes is a classic album-in my top ten-better than the watery stuff plaid are puttin out these days?? eh?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmm, maybe not better... but TBD is indeed a classic threesome for me. ;) Too pity about the split tho, but different minds and lifegoals usually screws it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
word that plaid is deff better. however i owned the black dog stuff before i owned any plaid. i didn't really appreciate the black dog stuff untill i got really familiar with plaid. also, i got most of the black dog stuff when i was in my depressive industrio angst post highschool pre-college grad pre-girlfriend phase. now that i am a happier person, i enjoy black dog stuff more. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and ken (not me but ken aka 'the black dog') kept a load of there equipment as well!!! black dog put out some classic shit though eh phob? wouldnt call doube figures classic-even in time with hindsight....too watery for my tastebuds. new ep out out though soon...mmmnnn |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Black Dog was touching my soul sooooo deep in the early ninethies, i have all their records. The music is without doubt the same high as BOC. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im mean the plaid stuff of late.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

They did a remix of Radiohead's Climbing Up the Walls didn't they? I've got one single but the name escapes me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Yeah, Ken Downie was a pioneer and has inspired a lots of electronica artists. I talked to him (messenging) a few weeks ago and he said he has enough unheard material for several albums. I almost pee my pants. This is btw my 1000th post. How silly of me saying that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He has to release it, but it's a fact he can't make very strong melodies without the help of Ed and Andy. |
||||||||
|

|
Webmaster Wizard? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have you heard music for adverst and short films?-a great listen.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Just remembered it - Babylon or something. Fuck my memory is crap. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Babylon is weak. I 'm wondering if Ken Downie will released some new stuff in the future. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah he had some stuff out recently -a 12 inch. but i dont know what its called or what label-my mates got it though and it was reviewed in last months 'wire' (the one with alice coltrane on the cover)-in the electronica section if anyone can be arsed to look it up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's more into producing today: 'black dog productions' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Clarify this for me: 2 of Plaid were in the Black Dog right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They did a remix of Lalo Schifin's Bullitt theme tune I believe. Can't remeber if it was any good. You can't really beat the original. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, jonesy, you are in right |
