Music Room *It's fully soundproofed*

I have indeed. And own their album. And very marvellous it is too. Currently in my stereo no less.

Thanks though. Any other recommendations welcome.

*looks in Mockney Piers direction*

Interesting and, weirdly, eerily-works-thing stolen from another forum, which probably stole it from another. As Mr Snow would say - don't worry! It's just a bit of fun.

Step 1 - Go to Wiki Random

The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

Step 2 - Go to Random quotations

The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

Step 3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days"

Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Put it all together and you have your genre-defying, inconceivably ground-breaking debut album.

For me, Jo Whiley will be breathlessly coming to a TV advert near you saying "THIS, is the stunning debut album from Sermon of the Roar of a Camel. Who Are Still Undecided. OUT NOW!

Debut album "It has no point"

I can hardly wait for my first gig.

David - are you seeing Fleet Foxes at the Roundhouse?

See, it works. I can see you now. You are a Canadian alt. country 19-piece collective who have been described as "Lambchop on a moosehunt" rockin' out to melancholic folk-tinged melodies. Blissful.

Ooh....ta for that FF nod. Just bought myself two tickets.

[giggirl]

David - do you have a camera hidden in my house? A bug in my garage? That's illegal isn't it?

Hope you bought direct at www.roundhouse.org.uk - save on those pesky booking fees. The circle is actually quite nice at the Roundhouse BTW - only has about 5 rows - not like Hammersmith or Brixton where you're miles away.

[mockney piers]

Oh my God D_C, that's almost the Midlake album cover you have there!!

My band, Sexuality, publish their debut The Third Row Exists?

with the cover:

 

[david_carnell]

Ooh very good Piers. I'm seeing euro acid jazz with funky undertones dealing with relationships, heartache and cigarettes. Alex Petridis is a big fan but your album sales remain stubbornly in cult-level numbers. NEXT!

I think I mentioned it before, but I'm highly highly recommending this one

Ted Barnes, portal nou.

http://www.myspace.com/tedbarnes

Having had my flirtation with freeform jazz influenced by the ibizan rhythms of the second summer of love and clasic eruo trash (sort of John Coltrane meets amnesia via 2 unlimited) Sexuality split and I decided upon a collaborative work for my next project:

Mitsubishi Agricultural Machinery with the marvellous There is Money in it.

yeah yeah, 5 words, pronouns count two thirds.

[Ted Max]

Hello thread.

Jim Snow here, letting you know about my album, Thought it was Hell, and its cover.

[david_carnell]

Excellent stuff.

I also have an Albarn-esque side project going with the world-music sampling Kampong Chhnang. Our debut album, To Have Done It, will feature guest vocals from Toure Ali Khan and Grace Jones. Expect bongos galore. Fopp will sell 3 copies.

You knows you wants it.

[Ted Max]

Oh and Mockney, namesake Barnes is just right for that "avoiding work, dusky falling, late afternoon" mood. ie right now.

[mockney piers]

Sign me up for one of those D_C.

I'm figuring Jim Snow's album will be a Trip-Hop ode to the stark beauty of the Faroe Isles, featuring the vocals of Beth Gibbons.

Can't wait.

[mockney piers]

Exactly right Ted, and precisely what I'm doing and how I'm soundtracking it.

[mockney piers]

The montage at the end of Generation Kill (very Wire) is to this; made the hairs on my arms stand up I can tell you

Johnny Cash - When the Man Comes Around

[SeanMacGabhann]

oooh I can imagine that working very well MP

The hairs on my arms have just gone up as well thinking about it

[david_carnell]

Good stuff. Do you have that on DVD Piers? Or have you been watching it on FX?

[mockney piers]

I've an iffy copy that someone bunt for me, guilt free as I'll be buying it soon for sure.

It's on 2 discs on avi format which doesn't like Macs for some reason if you want to borrow it.

[david_carnell]

Wouldn't say no. And I have a PC so no probs there.

[mockney piers]

cool, a pint is on order then.

Can do sunday afternoon or some time next week after work, which I imagine is better for you?

[Brendan]

Here?s what I?ve listened to over the last little while whilst working. Started out a bit confused then settled into 90?s teenage americana then got confused again.

Shakespears Sister - Hello (Turn Your Radio On) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_eU4yRoxPqs

Cheap Trick - I Want You To Want Me http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_DmpM8DMZ9E

Lit - My Own Worst Enemy http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=tDJFWbWSXFE&feature=related

American Hi-Fi - Flavor Of The Weak http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=n87oD8E98MM

GoldFinger - 99 Red Balloons http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5QYIlgRg9TY

New York Dolls - Personality Crisis http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=shjqRFQfvBg&feature=related

The Highwaymen - A Boy Named Sue 1990 http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=NBxhdewpQBI&feature=related

[david_carnell]

Nowt wrong with the Highwaymen, Brendan. Although that version is a Cash solo effort. The eponymous track is a real hairs-standing-on-end number.

[Jah Lush]

Mitch Mitchell RIP. Drummer with the Jimi Hendrix Experience has sadly passed away aged 61.

Jimi Hendrix - Wild Thing

[Incitatus]

Jah, heard this and thought of your excellent taste and recognition of Macca's much over looked Ram On, also one of my favorites too.

A bit odd but it samples Ram On rather a lot.

Josh Martinez - Grown Folks Music

[Jah Lush]

Oh thanks. Great video.

Here's something completely different and an absolutele classic from a very much overlooked artist. A great singer/songwriter who was covered by the Beatles and the Stones.

Arthur Alexander - Anna
