Jah - how were the Handsome Family? I'm very jealous I didn't get to go.....hope it was a good 'un.


Anyhoo....have some Kenny Anderson. Because he deserves a greater audience than he gets, because he's excellent and because I know some people will like it....

I wasn't overly familiar with their stuff but the little that I'd heard I'd really liked. They were excellent and I really enjoyed their set. I liked the humour in the darkness of the lyrics and and the harmonies were beautiful so I'll definitely be investing in some of their CDs as soon as possible.

Wot?s post rock? Is it like post punk? (An odd fabrication in itself) or is it posties rocking out in their spare time? Or 9 minute long power ballads with 5 minute guitar solos about missing parcels? Or angry 1 minute long 3 chord rants about stupid posts on internet forums? Or the official music of the Society for the Provision of Support for Fences? Or an obscure musical genre inspired by the ever present but often undervalued need to keep telephone lines out of the road?

Like most labels it's meaningless in itself.


It's basically Prog (oops, another label) with louder guitars and bigger sounds.


God Speed You Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, Sigur Ros, 65 Days of Static etc are probably the most famous post rockers.


Or according to wikipedia on one of it's uncensored pages "It is the use of 'rock instrumentation' for non-rock purposes. Practitioners of the genre's style typically produce instrumental music."

Which sounds like nonsense to me.

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      By ArchieCarlos · Posted

      The reason why this time it feels believable that it will actually happen is that the council has at last awarded the contracts for the works to BAM Nuttall.

      Annoying words that have cropped up in our language

      By fishboy · Posted

      One more while I'm here, although more of the way a word is used, and whilst possibly pedantic it really does annoy me!! "Dilemma" Constantly used to describe any tricky decision, but the definition is a decision with only two options, both of which will have an equally bad outcome.  So a choice of whether to have cake, ice cream or chocolate is NOT A DILEMMA!!! See also "Decimate", which means to reduce by 10%, not just general widespread destruction... 😖

      Stolen - Cannondale Topstone 4

      By fishboy · Posted

      So sorry to hear this, makes me so angry that some scumbag thinks they can just take someone's transport, freedom, enjoyment away, and there's so little chance of them being caught or punished adequately.  If you haven't already, register it on BikeRegister and change the status to stolen, hopefully if any responsible person considers buying it then they'll check there first.  Report it to the Police - very little chance they're able to do anything, but it's important for the stats, which may eventually provoke action by the gov? Set up search alerts on Gumtree, eBay & Facebook Marketplace, but try to be as generic as possible - often they are listed as just "road bike" rather than the exact model.  I've also printed out flyers and dropped off at local bike shops in case the bike is brought in for repairs, but not sure how worthwhile that was. Hope this helps...
