With Control hitting the cinemas, I thought I'd pop up a little Joy Division

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart


They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But these guys are good in their own rights too

Interpol - NYC

Editors - Munich


and finally, couldn't resist

Half Man half Biscuit - Joy Division Oven Gloves

Just picked up a copy of the new Roisin Murphy album, Overpowered. I hope it's really good, loved her last album she did with Matthew Herbert. Not had chance to listen to this yet, tho. So tecnhically I shouldn't be posting this ... Doh, will get back to you soon.
Roisin Murphy: actually the new record is okay - bit housey now and then, but a seventies/eighties icey electroness pervades. I hope she gets a bit more recognition this time. As I was reading yesterday, can it really be almost a decade since "Sing it Back"?

very good, very clever :)


I have heard many good things about the new album and liked the 2 songs I have heard but 10 years on from Moloko or not, I can't hear 5 seconds of The Time Is Now without wanting to damage something. Anything


Could be repetitious use by Sky Sports

Or it could be repetitious use by neighbours until 5am


either way, her voice is associated with Bad Things

Oh god yes, any of those bubblegum eurotrash tunes make me go a bit wild-eyed and throbbing-templed.


This tune was a favourite of one of the chaps in the hifi shop I worked in as a student and used as his classic demo cd, cranking it up anything up to 50-60 times on a saturday.

It makes me want to kill people.


Aeorsmith - Love in an Elevator

Aaargh! Stop it yer bastards. Please please stop. Life's too short to listen to these shitty ear worms that irritate the hell out of us. Let's have something decent please.

I know this has been on loads of adverts but it's still a stonking classic.


Iggy Pop


The Passenger

Definitely not. Hunt and Tony Sales wasn't it? It was just all the guitar wankery and poor songs that did it for me in Tin Machine.

OK, we're ditching the headache music are we?


A bit of post rock* for you then

65 Days of Static - Drove Through ghosts and Retreat Retreat


Is post rock just a young persons label for prog, a bit like emo is pop-goth-lite and nu-rave is err...rave?

very true.

I think the dance music scene was probably worse than anything else for that.

I loved proper rave, everyone together, all loved up, dancing like an idiot, it really about the music as long as it got everyone going.


I think I washed my hands of the whole scene in about '93 when all that horrible terminology came into play and everything fractured into scenes; the hard-sub-proto-house-kids versus the happy-intelligent-beatniks who never darkened the doorsteps of the progressive-break-trip-miami-speed-synth-euro-clashers hating the dark-2-step-goan-psy-techno-trancers.


AAAAAAAAAGH


Anyway, a blast from the past

Family Foundation - Express Yourself

No doubt I've got it all wrong and this isn't rave at all but deep house hardcore :-$

Who cares, let's enjoy it anyway. Happy House? Der....aah! Going to raves, finding it's on some farmland off the M25, house parties, warehouse parties, arms aloft, shirt off, dancing like a lunatic for hours on end, e'd of your tits, "I love you maan," no violence, smiley happy people. Those were the days. God! I'm really sounding like an old git now.

Have some of this maaaan and get into a Higher State of Consciousness.

    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose. 
    • @CPR Dave He needs to communicate collectively with all of the beneficiaries.  That is the whole point of my original post.  Electronic communications are the best way of doing this, as I am doing now on this forum.  Apart from the gold digger who will get a six figure sum the rest of us are on four figures, and that is going down by the day. I'm offended by any suggestion that we are not behaving well.  What on earth do you mean?
