| Tyler. ..................hey......
|
| Ire you died. damn that would be sad if i still had feelings. wait i do : (
|
| Curse. miss your reviews you sultry minx
|
| Lies Have you even heard of Johnny Cash?
|
| Apollo over 2000 DCFC listens...enough said
|
| AtavanHalen I'm done here. If you've come looking for me, email davidjamesyoungwrites@gmail.com
|
| Tyrael It must be like looking in a mirror for you...
|
| Tyrael Does it annoy you? Good because **** YOU
|
| Sleaper eyyyy amigo, read some of your sounds offs/ reviews and stuff.... you should really apply for a staff position. Your reviews are better than like 90% of the actual staff members.anyway man, keep reviewing.. they r goooood!
|
| omnipanzer You have been an admirable user this year and Belsnickel has taken note.
|
| omnipanzer Belsnickel has judged you. http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=113933
|
| DaveyBoy You superstar. I never did get around to your other EPs. Will do so once the year-end list is out of the way.
|
| DaveyBoy Gee, no need to dig it in. Hope all is well mate.
|
| esther Hey man I noticed you like some of the same bands I do. I wrote and recorded an EP and I was wondering if you could review, rate, or even just listen to it. Here's a link: esther801music.bandcamp.com
|
| DaveyBoy You can hate me even more now. Are you hearing a band Ive never heard of (White Denim) crap all over Radiohead.
|
| kingsoby1 maybe a jpg of a thumbsdown would do it...
|
| Viales Monique Hensworth created the potion.
|
| Wolfhorde Well, one can guess. I still found it to be quite amusing. But I generally like some of the stuff up there.
|
| Wolfhorde Considering you're from down yonder I'd guess you're talking about the soccer player Jack Reilly. I believe there was something back before the wall fell.
|
| Wolfhorde Well, your music on Bandcamp. Carrie Bickmore's got no soul, I wish I was Jack Reilly. Not 100% sure what exactly I listened to but I probably laughed more than I should have.
|
| DaveyBoy He/They will not disappoint. His voice just pierces through everything. And its great to see he has become much more confident as a front man.
|
| Tyrael holy s*** Nighflight rules thanks man
|
| Tyrael it is a-ma-zing like really
|
| Tyrael Hey David, have you heard Electra Heart yet?
|
| klap a difficult quandary i have often struggled with
|
| DaveyBoy Hehe. I must say that you are good at annoying the truth out of people.
|
| DaveyBoy Long story. Promise to keep it to yourself and I might tell you it one day.
|
| Sowing Oh ok haha. I thought I was going to get atavanhandled
|
| Sowing We usually see eye to eye on things so I was just wondering what problems you found with my Killing Joke review. Any feedback appreciated, bro :]
|
| Spare aw man you shoulda been there. jen buxton was in the crowd rockin out, she's p nice
|
| Spare yo were you at the btmi/smith st band show in newcastle?
|
| Xenophanes Great ETID review, man. I'm glad to see you still poke your head around these parts now and then ; ]
|
| DaveyBoy U will be pleased to know that Im going to go see Dallas this time. Got great seats and the Palais Theatre has great acoustics. Cant wait.
|
| someguest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SP1kKcZtnkQ
|
| Tyrael But you're a cool bastard :]
|
| Tyrael Nah I don't think you're terrible, you're one of the few people on this site that actually doesn't give a crap about what people think of them. That's why I think you're cool.
|
| AsoTamaki That's a big compliment. Thank you, sir.
|
| omnipanzer 21 is a good album. This message will self destruct in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
|
| danielito19 how is my Camp review unfocused? i'd like to hear any criticism you have
|
| DaveyBoy Atavan has lost the plot. And stop with the dad crap or I will send you his hospital bills.
|
| LargeTalons i love ur avatar, is that a fat version of her, did she really get that fat?
|
| taylormemer You seriously gonna come down here? Because I'd definitely pay to see.
|
| dimsim3478 Understand. World's bigger than Sput reviewing.
|
| dimsim3478 You need to get back on there, man. Represent the Aussies!
|
| clercqie Hey Atavan! You probably heard this already, but what do you think about the fact that Bloc Party is looking for a new singer? (http://www.nme.com/news/bloc-party/59460) I hope this will turn out right, but I'm quite worried...
|
| DaveyBoy Hehe. Its called being as sick as a dog and having way too much work on my hands. Arghhhh.
|
| Trebor. England is amazing. I really like Skeleton too, it has like an emo feel to it.
|
| Trebor. We both love Bloc Party. You should get Another Weekend In The City and Little Thoughts EP if you haven't already
|
| DaveyBoy Hello. The last one I remember reading just happened to be Calling All Cars. Hardly ever read the reviews there tbh and I think I already told you why. The only other thing I can recall reading of yours over the past 3 months was your PATD interview, because you warned me it was coming. Brendon seemed pretty cool. Good showman too.
|
| DaveyBoy Babylon DL please. Had been looking for weeks.
|
| someguest idk dude i just did 5 lines of alcohol and smoked a bag of nicotine
|
| tkxxx7 I was referring to the new la dispute
|
| tkxxx7 Thank you Atavan, soooooooo much
|
| Vooligan Hey babes, just thought i'd drop by and tell you to listen to this sweet band. They play trip-hop infused pop and the vocalist Liz has one of the best voices ever. They're called Nonagon, look em up on unearthed :)
|
| theacademy dude i just heard the new jezabels. how is your distaste for them even fathomable. dude.
|
| static2dope lol you called me a homophobe in some thread so i was js
|
| andcas I figured you'd appreciate my new list about todd in the shadows.
|
| Tokyochuchu ESL? Uh.. No. I will let that insult pass because I posted the review unfinished and went to watch pro wrestling before coming back to it. It's finished now, so please have another look and tell me what is wrong!
|
| klap kinda like lou reed emirate
|
| Knott- The Midway State - Paris Or India. You would love this.
|
| DaveyBoy Looks like I will be seeing Tonight Alive soon. If only by accident.
|
| Crowe Vampire Weekend and The Shins make my sun shine.
|
| Crowe I'm very miserable.
|
| conradtao Holy s***. Ryan Tedder better be giving Trent royalties.
|
| Athom oh lord i've tried :(
|
| patrickfannon Well, sort of. It's essentially saying, "We have very similar tastes." I see what you mean though; made me stop and think. I guess it's just an ice breaker. Anyway, I need to listen to "Codes and Keys" a bunch more as well, but I was a little disappointed with the first few listens. Have you heard of/listened to "Unknown Mortal Orchestra?" I'm curious to know what you'd think of it. Well, take it easy, man.
|
| patrickfannon You rated "Paranoid" and "Transatlantacism" 5's. I'm blown away, man. Great taste. What do you think of the new Death Cab? Were you as let down as I was?
|
| Sowing haha how did you end up telling us apart
|
| DaveyBoy I initially thought it was not as good as Hey Everyone and I am now starting to think its better. Probably both around the same rating though. Make sure you catch John this time, will ya.
|
| DaveyBoy Hey DavID, I am just piecing together a new Dananana review. Really growing on me and wondering if you have heard it. If so, what did ya think.
|
| Tyrael It was not meant to be an insult. What I meant was that your ratings of pop music tend to be quite forgiving (like for example you giving My World 2.0 a 3.5...).
|
| Tyrael Oh yes you did, in the Incubus thread. And I am very grateful to you for that cause he was a major pain in the ass...
|
| taylormemer Likin' your blogo. Didn't realise it was there until recently, nice one. I would donate but I'm a student and partially homeless :(
|
| Tyrael Oh my god you scared off that damn troll alachlahol. For that you have earned my deepest respect.
|
| Xenophanes Rad. Didn't know they had abs in Australia.
|
| Xenophanes Either way, how have ya been? Don't see you around these parts too often these days.
|
| Ire welcome to sputnikmusic home of the randoms
|
| Trebor. You like Arrested Development. You are cool.
|
| Tyrael Hehe, I think you get a lot of undeserved hate on sputnik so I thought I should be extra nice ;]
|
| andcas i'm glad you like him. I got hook on his reviews a few weeks ago.
|
| FelixCulpa Cool! Lemme know what you think of them. Ohh stream/dl their Lp for free here http://deathtofalsehoperecords.com/downloads/dtfh022.html
|
| FelixCulpa Just check out Grouplove's S/T and thought I'd add to the database and saw it was already there and rated. I who was thinking of rec'ing this to like you and Davey! I can recommend Mixtapes if you are in for some sweet Pop punk, female vox included!
|
| andcas check out the alejandro review he did and tell me what you think.
|
| DaveyBoy Im down with UTT. Under. The. Thumb. Hehe.
|
| DaveyBoy I was awaiting this q. Emery I could never get to as I was away for Easter. I am still spewing on missing Parades. Again. I know. I'm a lost cause. Im blaming the better half. Long story. No excuse. I screwed up. Bash away. Hope uni is doing well by you.
|
| Blindsided Would you be cool adding our blog to your blogroll?:http://hopelesssound.blogspot.com/
|
| Jim so what's all this **** off business
|
| Slum interested to know what you think of the new Britney record
|
| bailar14 TE QUIERO MI AMOR ATAVAN. take me now.
|
| Knott- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf8AunHhg3Q
|
| Irving Thanks muchly for your two cents on the Bieber review. I sincerely hope you stop by on my other pieces - I feel like you've got lots of experience and information to share, and any comments/criticism will always be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
|
| Xenophanes Heartily enjoy your rating and soundoff for Mer de Noms. First album I ever truly "loved."
|
| CelestialDust awesome, i really liked accelerate so it'd be a hard one to top for me
|
| CelestialDust Hey man, I saw that you rated R.E.M.s Collapse Into Now a 4. Just wondering how you got to listen to it at that listening party you mentioned haha. I hope it leaks soon. Did you feel that it was better than Accelerate?
|
| SeaAnemone let me know when you get a chance please
|
| SeaAnemone mr. atavanhalen, sir, the contribs are getting the process started for sounding off on the soon-to-be-chosen user '10 list and i'm organizing a thread on facebook to include all the new contribs in this process (we've had another one going for a while this is just a continuation) and I'm assuming you want to help with the soundoff process? if you don't want me to friend you on fb or whatever (I think I tried before for this) that's fine no offense taken I can keep youd thru emails maybe..
|
| DaveyBoy Yes, I knew a week ago. Unfortunately, it looks like I will not be able to go as am going away for easter long weekend. Doh.
|
| Dryden it was fun did u get my text after the game ^_^
|
| Captain Civic Well if you ever call them, you can ask to speak to a David Young. TRIPPY
|
| Captain Civic Do you happen to work for a company called TechnologyOne?
|
| DaveyBoy If u bothered listening to them, what are your thoughts on Titus Andronicus.
|
| Knott- listen to little comets man don't say i never did anything for you
|
| Baphomet So now that your a contributor how about you contribute a bit and rec me some female fronted pop you sick bastard.
|
| Anthracks is xtina - bionic worth getting i looooove not myself 2nite
|
| dr2den a call at work once in a while wouldnt hurt ya know or u could leave a message on the answering machine
|
| Anthracks the new britney song makes my clothes burst into flames instantly
|
| Vooligan So, two things. Congrats on being contributer :) and two, I listened to Young Modern again recently and something clicked and I really like it now. Thought you'd enjoy that :P love you man.
|
| Anthracks you really don't even have to ask me to go see cher i'll just magnetize there
|
| Romulus it was enjoyable. i really like the vibe they create, especially in the first track. definitely preferred the longer tracks compared to when they settled into a groove if that makes sense
|
| DaveyBoy You should know me better by now. It takes me at least 3 months to get to a reco. And I will not hold it against him. I like Adam Lamber. I mean, Adam Lambert makes good music.
|
| Knott- Literally never heard that awful, awful song before. Why did you have to introduce it to my life?
|
| Knott- I don't even know what the **** that was.
|
| Romulus so apparently you got promoted to something or other but i'm not really sure because it wasn't huge news and all over sputnik or anything like that, so in essence i'm not totally sure what i'm congratulating you for
|
| EVedder27 Congrats David, you've deserved this for some time.
|
| Sowing Atavan, my man...I am excited to have you joining us at the contributor level (although IMO you could/should have already been here). anyways, congratulations!
|
| Metalstyles We've always had our differences and we always will have them, but I just wanted to congratulate you on your promotion as it's definitely deserved. Now if you'd excuse me, I have a s***ty music Friday ahead of me so congrats again and I'm outa here.
|
| kris. about ****ing time you got contrib jk luv u congrats
|
| Tyrael Congrats Atavan, nobody deserves this more than you.
|
| greg84 Congrats, man! It was well deserved with so many quality reviews you posted.
|
| luci Congrats Atavan! I've always liked your reviews :)
|
| Awesomesauce Hey man, congrats on the contributor promotion! Well deserved. Looking forward to some quality reviews this year.
|
| Crisis Yeah you probably haven't, our genres don't cross (I'm more black metal, death metal, etc), but nonetheless good to have you with us.
|
| Crisis I'm Crysis, but I'm banned for two weeks so just made this account for now. But yeah, welcome to the Contributor fold.
|
| Crisis Congrats Atavan, it was a long time coming but glad you finally got the promotion.
|
| Observer About time. You've been s***ting on the rest of us for years with your quality grade-a reviews. Congrats!
|
| conradtao Dude, congratulations!! Very well-deserved and your app was all kinds of awesome.
|
| DaveyBoy It was a couple of random confusing comments I made to you on LastFM. And I will not let you dismiss it so easily, as you always said you would never be promoted back. Name of Scott Spark rings a bell. I think I saw a local review. Ta for reco and congrats again.
|
| Fugue Congrats David, a most deserved promotion.
|
| DaveyBoy So now you know what I was on about a couple of months back. Hehe. I am a one man campaign manager. Actually, it may have started that way, but I eventually got some back up. To my surprise. LOL.
|
| Slum Hey congrats man, I always wondered how you weren't at least contrib
|
| Ire oh sweet congrats
|
| Xenophanes YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES! I'm super happy for you man! Congrats!!!
|
| Irving WHAT UP CONTRIBUTOR?!! =)
|
| Xenophanes "It sucks that you keep getting negged regardless of what you post man. For what it's worth, I think you're an amazing writer."Been saying that s*** for awhile, Irving!
|
| robertsona i think i may have slipped this by you but i've been trying to get people to listen to corinne bailey rae's 2010 album "the sea" just because it's so good and nobody has ;_; and though i rarely post on people's shoutboxes about stuff like this it strikes me as an album you would love so yeah! also concurred on the new bspears
|
| Irving It sucks that you keep getting negged regardless of what you post man. For what it's worth, I think you're an amazing writer.
|
| DaveyBoy Name dropper. Nah, I am interested as she is extremely talented. That answer is a little non committal I guess. I think she will continue trying to cross genres, but her name in mainstream lights will be too difficult to ignore. Good luck to her though, she deserves it.
|
| musicConsumer lol... I didn't even look at your list. I was just ****ing with you, man.
|
| fr33convict I missed your MCR review some how. Anyway, read it, and you did a great job with it even if I disagree. You're a great writer and I'm very surprised your not contrib already.
|
| kingsoby1 damn that mark ronson from last year was incredible. saw that you rated it when i went to punch in my "4". wish i didnt miss it
|
| chambered89 foreign tapes is soooooooooooooooooo goooooooooooooooooooooooooood haven't stopped listening for a week
|
| Dave de Sylvia I prefer the Cast of Emmerdale http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BIWM7UFHxQ
|
| DaveyBoy Tempted. 2DCC made my top 25 of 2010 too. There are still tix for under 18, but we both know I would struggle. LOL. Hope you have been well mate. Have yourself a great day tomorrow.
|
| DaveyBoy So Parades get announced as supports for Two Door Cinema Club. Unfortunately that gig was already sold out. It is a conspiracy I tell ya.
|
| Mordecai. christmas is still 3 days away David!
|
| BallsToTheWall just joshing on the young heretics review. Its all good.
|
