I actually really quite like the band Blur, and have done for several years. I fear I may have just alienated myself from many members of this board. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like Blur, I just think Mr Albarn is a twat. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
blur - song 2 wohoOoooo! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i like their song where they go woo-hoo and lots of distorted guitars and also the song with the video in which everything is white. it's called 'the ....' can't remember titles very well...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
....not that keen on Song 2 though. I'll tell you who else I really like: Suede! They're quality. Dog Man Star is a classic! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Suede are great. Netlon: I think your talking about The Universal. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Universal! I like that one too! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i meant the universal! everyone i know hates that song, though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My favourite Blur Song is probably "Caramel" I reckon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
let me guess... you're gonna say you are more than alittle partial to a drop of Ash and Travis too... am i right ? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The floodgates have opened. Tsk, task. I suppose you all like Menswear too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nah, Travis and Ash are dull. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with their music, it just doesn't really do anything for me. I'd describe Travis as "nice" and Ash as "alright". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ash are good but Travis are fucking terrible. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shed 7 though, now you're talking. In my opinion Shed 7 are by far the most groundbreaking, envelope-pushing and superior band to have come out of England since the Smiths. |
||||||||

.......that was a joke........ |

Please,for the love of god,don't mention these groups again on this MB! }:> |
||||||||

Geneva, Denim, Rialto, Kula Shaker, Northern Uproar, Hurricane #1, etc. |

|
|
Oasis. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apart from some stone roses , the first two Oasis LPs , and one or two songs by the charlatans.... its all cringeworthy navel gazing tosh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Arrrrrrrrrggggghhhhh. Its not 19fuckin95! Britpop died and rots in hell. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
....apart from the ones that don't take themselves seriously like Beta Band and Black Grape ... they're OK . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Remember these? Sleeper, Elastica, Echobelly, Menswear? My mate still subjects me to that shit. I don't think he's bought a new album in about seven years. |
||||||||
|
|

where are all those britpop band members now ? working in Canary wharf for lifestyle management marketing PR agencies as faux brit-style-gurus ? tossers |
||||||||
|
|

I'll come clean(not literally!),I used to love "Ride","Lush" and "My Bloody Valentine"(and "Wedding Present").Such a long time ago.......}:> |

Yesterday I heard that an oasis concert was sold out within 45 mins...... sad news.. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Loveless is a bit of a monster. David Gedge gets right on my tits though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its the Britplop era/stuff I hate. They even had a show called Britpop Now on once. I despise the way the NME big-up all these shit bands then dump them a few years later. They rip the piss out of these people but they gave them loads of column-inches at the time and covershots. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you have to admit THE SMITHS ' paint a vulgar picture ' is a spot-on assessment of the indie media scene ' re-issue , repackage, slip them into different sleeves... buy both and feel decieved...' I know, stevey boy, i know ! *sob* :) |
||||||||
|
|

I'm gonna move to Camden and start a indie bland. Anyone up for it? We can adopt chirpy mockney accents, grow our hair over our ears, get some vintage Adidas trackie tops and a few pairs of Gazelles and lose a few stone. I reckon there's a market for this shite; mid-20s tossers on a nostalgia trip. They've had their first kid and are pining for the beer-fuelled days of 94/95. |
||||||||

Understandable.}:> |

jonesy... I'm IN ! any room for a pouting chick who just stands there singing in monotone about how quirky the working classes can be ? |
||||||||

Welcome aboard. Are you anorexic? Have you got your own 'ironic' soft-toy backpack? If not I can supply one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anorexic- no but I'm starting taking smack for a socilogical/artistic experiment into my own pseudo-psyche so I'll soon lose a few pounds ! backpack thing- thats sewn up baby ! Zippy from Rainbow OK for ya ? If not, Zippy with a Nick Griffin 'I've been gagged .. for telling the truth' gag .. I think we need three new members and a name now.... lets DO it ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jonesy.... Can I join too? I have a knack of feigning a penchant for 60s guitar bands such as the Byrds. I like lager and I have no discernible musical talent. I look like a woman, but have stubble, and I wear really skinny t-shirts and have a floppy fringe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You two are more than welcome. I'm thinking maybe we should go for a bit of a heavier sound and go for the Strokes/Hives thang. We'll get in the NME then for sure. We can call ourselves the (it has to be the something at the moment, its so now) Shovels. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
an avent-garde post-postmodern post-ironic name would be a , like , really kind of ... er great start guys... BILGE ... yeah I dig it and i vouch for manicminer because he's obviously sympathetic to the disenfranchised mining community of the northeast and the fact they're all manic because of cheaply available drugs on the Tyneside docks. thats social consciousness man. safe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I reckon we should get our singles remixed by the following; Lionrock, Chemical Bros, Monkey Mafia and other big beat artisits. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
' The $Monkey-Puppets ' deep man , like , our audience would really associate with it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm starting to get really excited about this band now. I can sing a little bit and I know how to play "Ziggy Stardust" on guitar, so there's a start. And yes, Smokehammer, my social consciousness is indeed from where I derive my name. In fact, I was thinking that I could come on stage in a miner's outfit, with visible symptoms of manic depression (onstage fits of rage, followed by periods of extreme happiness). The whole thing excites me greatly. I'm not sure about emulating the Strokes, as it inevitable that NME will ditch them pretty soon - they've been "in vogue" for a while now. We should take a chance and attempt to anticipate the next big trend in indie. I think that camp behaviour will make a comeback. I can see it now - a manically depressed miner in lipstick. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
we can do sound tests at cool sounding studios like 'the pressure-cooker' 'the spin-dryer' and 'the five legged walnut loaf' and set up our own label 'C_rave' post-ironic, post-post-ironic even. Post-chemical-generation. post-fucking-post guys ! (know what i mean?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And how about a spell in rehab? I've always fancied that. And some of the obligatory rifts within the band. And, seeing as we have a female member, some unconfirmed rumours of relationships between bandmembers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think our outfits will be an essential component to defining the zeitgeist and future musical landscape. Image is everything. I think we should dress as al Qaida fighters in UN berets. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes. And we should wear makeup with the terrorist gear, just to look ironic. And in an interview with a Radio 1 journalist, one of us could carve a phrase into our arm - just to prove our authenticity. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I agree. You're both pretentious cunts and are musical reactionaries. I'm going to start a solo career with some artisits from Mali. Not I'm not. Yes I am. Oh yeah, I shagged your girlfriends. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fuck off. If you do that I'll either: a) kill myself b) disappear c) shag your girlfriend d) begin my own solo career and sell more records than you, just out of spite e) claim that i was the creative force behind the band anyway f) replace you with a 17 year old nobody from Poole |
