  • 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
    June 24 04:51 PM
  • NapalmDe4th Thanks a lot for the kind words, much appreciated.
    May 25 04:46 AM
  • NapalmDe4th Broken Social Scene were actually one of the first bands I listened to once I broke out of my "omg Breaking Benjamin is so original" phase. Still love them to this day. BTW, I answered you on that Lady GaGa review, in case you're interested. I'll keep an eye out for your reviews.
    May 23 03:02 AM
  • NapalmDe4th Dude, nice taste in what music you like/review. Just found out about Wye Oak the other day. Great find.

  • Douglas awesome noooo worries.
    November 13 07:01 AM
  • Douglas hey bud checked out Inland Sea yetttT?
    November 13 04:10 AM
  • Hey man. New to the site, and just read your John Butler review of John Butler...I have been looking high and low for this, and cannot find it anywhere (accept for 50 dollars on amazon). Do you know any way of obtaining a copy because I'm kinda dying to here it. Great review btw.

  • Bitchfork cool cool
    October 24 06:05 AM
  • Bitchfork Did I give you my split with witchrapist? If not, then here you go: http://www.mediafire.com/?3pm6d1a935snkj1 THE TRACKLISTING GOT ****ED UP so remember it goes like this: Astral Plane 1, Astral Plane 2, Disharmonious Latitude, ...And Harmony Escapes, Hello Longitude (Erik), Benadryl Blah blah
    October 24 04:06 AM
  • Jim hey man i hope this link works http://www.mediafire.com/?4ynw5184z015j a censored version of a song i made. Opinions

  • Bitchfork kk
    September 2 06:07 AM
  • Bitchfork I commented on the review for it. I'll listen if you make sure to listen to my split with witchxrapist when she gets the drums programmed. My side is full blown ambience (with drone and post-rock tinge - even spoken word!) and her's is a very ambient sounding industrial set. It's under Unfathoms and Blasphymartyr whenever you wish to look through the artist page or when it comes out and you've decided a rating.
    September 2 02:30 AM
  • Puzzles Hey man, figured I'd give you a link for that Over-Reactor record, so here it is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9Y3C9GAD. Consider yourself lucky to have stumbled upon this, it's one of my favourite rock records in recent memory. And it hasn't even come out yet...
    July 24 10:03 AM
  • Bitchfork Yeah of course.
    July 22 03:29 AM
  • Bitchfork Band Name: Unfathoms Album Name: Sounds of an Islander's City, Touch of a Medieval Faerie It's all on sputnik. Um, read my sound off for contextual knowledge. All of this was done on computer; mostly percussion, some horns, strings, seashore noises... etc.
    July 22 03:09 AM
  • Bitchfork Yeah it is. Um, remember that the first track is misspelled on the mediafire link though - it's "In Tokyo, Japan" with a comma.
    July 22 02:30 AM
  • Bitchfork Okay, well this is like nine minutes long and completely ****ing abrasive, so I'll give you a chance to be right :) http://www.mediafire.com/?p18ye4hse2g53ep go nuts.
    July 22 02:23 AM
  • Bitchfork Before I even give you the link answer my question. And I might wish for you to review my demo too...
    July 22 02:12 AM
  • Bitchfork Hey you're the guy who reviews a bunc of sputnier's albums, right? If so, answer me this: do you like noise music?
    July 22 02:05 AM
  • jambieisme good luck with your future reviews. At least one of us knows what were doing.
    July 9 05:04 AM
  • Deviant. I tell myself its alright because I can sput while i'm at work
    July 8 06:29 AM
  • Deviant. Ha, cheers man, Even though when you put it like that it makes me feel like i've spent far too much time on here
    July 8 04:49 AM
  • Meatplow hey man, I removed a heap of deviants old dibs from the database list let me know which you want now
    July 2 01:32 PM
  • joesmoe4000 no, your the one who thinks your "opinion is gospel", your the one who took time to attack my opinion about eminem's recovery you claim to be smarter and more mature than me yet you had to diss me "i think my opinions are just my opinion" but yet you claim to know what i think real mature.
    June 25 02:09 AM
  • joesmoe4000 and for you to even listen to taylor swift says a lot about you and your musical taste. so you being a taylor swift fan giving her album a 3.5 great and all is gonna speak and tell me what eminem song or album is classic. or speak on hip hop in general and me and users are suppose to hold your opinions in this genre valid. you don't even know what hip hop music or culture represents your musical likes prove that look at your ratings list so check yourself.
    June 25 01:57 AM
  • AtavanHalen Ohhh, you are ADORABLE. Your physical copy of the EP will be available soon, but for now you can download the EP from the FB fanpage if y'like :) x
    June 9 03:19 PM
  • Vooligan Michael! Ever wondered what Ezekiel Ox and Chris Cheney would sound like if they made music together with the drummer from Dukes of Windsor? Now you can find out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgsTwBgbbOk

  • tiesthatbind Haha yep, well it's good to see someone else take an objective point of view on them for a change, seeing them on every "worst bands" list is maddening.
    April 26 08:13 AM
  • tiesthatbind Yeah, I agree, their lyrics used to be better. I don't mind their sappy ballads too much, but I hate Animals and all the other cock-rock they've done recently, it's what made them grow off me.
    April 26 01:31 AM
  • tiesthatbind Glad to see you're another sane person that doesn't go rating their albums 1 because of overplayed singles (which I know some people do whether they admit it or not). What are your favorites?
    April 25 03:20 PM
  • tiesthatbind Yeah, I can't stand Dark Horse, it's them finally starting to prove their critics right. I never got much into The State, but I still think Silver Side Up and All the Right Reasons were good albums. My favorite songs of theirs are Too Bad, Because of You, Savin' Me, and Side of a Bullet.
    April 25 03:02 PM
  • tiesthatbind I happened to browse your ratings, glad to see at least ONE other person on this site enjoys some Nickelback.
    April 25 09:07 AM
  • AtavanHalen Would be stoked!
    April 23 05:03 AM
  • AtavanHalen I LOVE MICHAEL PHILP LIKE A LITTLE BROTHER
    April 23 02:50 AM
  • Vooligan Oh Michael, i completely forgot to tell you. The Ox and the Fury's (Ezekiel Ox's acoustic band) album is out. You can only buy it at gigs, but here's a link for it if you want: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=d8610be6738f12e10dec85adfe0a530a0baf1f1f4c57580216f8cf40558950b4

  • iPim English is my third language, I am not learning it at school however. So that's an excuse for my poor writing. Sorry I bumped the whole review page :(
    April 8 01:38 PM
  • tinkrbel i appreciate it dude and i MIGHT keep doing them, not sure atm though
    April 1 02:35 AM
  • Douglas oh swell I cant wait to hear it

  • Douglas aha youd take that.
    March 27 06:31 AM
  • Douglas on release date/stream. thanks a heap buddy
    March 26 01:32 PM
  • Douglas man any chance i can email you a review for proofing?
    March 26 06:00 AM
  • Douglas Ha ha sounds good man, look forward to reading them. I just wasn't sure on the release date since they seem to be featuring the album on triple J, but they might have an advanced copy...
    March 24 11:17 AM
  • Douglas whens the JBT reviews coming?
    March 24 10:50 AM
  • DeleriumTrigger Well I'm glad I could give you a chuckle.
    March 24 10:36 AM
  • Klekticist cleveland, the land of radically unpredictable weather. Sputnik's only got about 40,000 members though. There are still decent usernames out there.
    March 22 03:15 AM
  • Klekticist thought i'd mention: nice username. my username's a play off eclectic
    March 20 05:19 PM
  • Douglas Ha awesome man good you enjoy it. Its actually my mates band.
    March 20 12:18 PM
  • Spare i don't have internet, any time it appears i'm back i'm actually at an internet cafe or something of the sort
    March 20 03:57 AM
  • Douglas Give Afterlife a listen first though, probs there best.
    March 19 11:04 AM
  • Douglas hey man check these guys out you may enjoy ://www.myspace.com/innerspace01
    March 19 11:03 AM
  • Deviant. ://www.sputnikmusic.com/review_35381 Hopefully i've fulfilled your wishes haha
    March 7 07:05 AM
  • Knott- thanks... slightly dazed, but thanks.
    March 6 12:37 AM
  • AzraelBlack Yeah I was aware, I just felt it a bit more appropriate to say so here. But if it's customary to do so in the comment box, I'll likely do that next time.
    March 2 10:51 AM
  • AzraelBlack Yeah I was aware, I just felt it a bit more appropriate to say so here. But if it's customary to do so in the comment box, I'll likely do that next time.
    March 2 10:50 AM
  • AzraelBlack Thanks for the feedback on my first review. I am Australian of Venezuelans decent :) I'll definately take your advice on my paragraphs. Thanks again.
    March 2 12:12 AM
  • Douglas no should i have?
    February 13 11:35 AM
  • Nagrarok Very much win for you indeed.
    January 28 12:33 AM
  • Dreamsoffew You too Michael
    December 5 11:36 AM
  • Dreamsoffew ****in hope not!! Think it's just a cold, should be right as rain in no time (fingers crossed anyway)
    December 5 11:29 AM
  • Dreamsoffew Nah, i'm just sick. Last couple of days actually. right now, i'm in bed drinking whiskey and sputniking. It's a good look lol
    December 5 11:18 AM
  • Dreamsoffew Just gone midnight actually. No big plans for tonight?
    December 5 11:12 AM
  • Dreamsoffew Agreed. What is it, about 10 or so over in Oz?
    December 5 11:09 AM
  • Dreamsoffew Suppose I could, might be a tad biased though. I'll just do it behind his back lol
    December 5 08:23 AM
  • Dreamsoffew Pretty well. Met him a year or so a go when his band came up to Auckland for a gig. Me and a couple of mates chilled with them afterwards, and him and me have kept in touch since. And if they're playing a gig within driving distance i'm there. He told me about Sputnik, so you can blame him I guess lol
    December 5 06:50 AM
  • Dreamsoffew The other songwriter I was talking about is Deviant, he introduced me to this site. Dreams Of Few is his band name
    December 5 12:16 AM
  • Observer Yeah, that's definitely a step in the right direction. I guess it kinda stinks about the pay, but at least it's something. That's good news Michael!
    November 25 12:15 PM
  • Douglas Oh yeah of course! haha came with the LP, it's 4 covers. Ill review it. cheers bro.
    November 22 11:19 PM
  • Douglas WEll, it's already been done with a similar opinion too mine... s'all good.
    November 22 06:56 AM
  • Douglas i have writers block! give me something interesting to review! haha
    November 22 06:49 AM
  • Douglas Haha ye olde Nightwish, yeah didn't ever really get into them, though i will have another try! Thanks for the other piece btw, shall check it.
    November 13 11:28 AM
  • Benjajinj Wow, that was a while ago. I've just downgraded All the Right Reasons and Dark Horse as they're not that awesome. Curb though is great. I don't know what people have against Nickelback, to be honest, but for me it's just another simple rock band, one that's enjoyable. Not, they're not defining or world changing but how many bands these days are?
    November 8 11:39 AM
  • TheRoyalOceanMaster you listen to opeth
    November 6 07:08 AM
  • YouAreMySilence Polar Life, it's fricken amazing.
    October 31 06:57 AM
  • YouAreMySilence Your Eyes is like the best song ever. You should listen to the record and throw up a rating. I'll def give it a listen thanks brofo!
    October 30 10:13 PM
  • Metalstyles yeah i definitely agree, i did like All The Right Resons, but the singles off it got overplayed waaaaaaaay too much so it doesn't really appeal to me anymore that much. Still it was a good album back then. Dark horse is definitely weaker than anything other they have put out so and not all that good in general.
    October 29 01:19 PM
  • Douglas Yeah thats why i am undecided since I am a 4, but i want talk about "things" haha... Might knock one up tomorrow!
    October 29 08:48 AM
  • Douglas Should I review Lisa Mitchell? I am tempted, but not sure if it's necessary...
    October 29 05:28 AM
  • Metalstyles yeah, well i find Silverside Up to be more consistent as a whole. Leader Of Men is a great tune though, i agree
    October 28 07:44 PM
  • Metalstyles actually, i myself prefer Silverside UP over The State by just a bit. That's my favourite. And yes, i agree, there are far worse bands out there than nickelback but these guys seem to get the biggest s***storms for some reason.
    October 27 09:33 PM
  • Metalstyles oooohohohoh bold move giving that Nickelback album a 4, but it's cool to see you do it as it's a really good album from the time they weren't mainstream yet (actually i don't mind their later releases also tbh)
    October 27 09:25 PM
  • MaskAtTheMasquerade hahahahah "Who is that? Nietzsche? So you stopped talking because of Friedrich Nietzsche? Far out."
    October 24 02:51 AM
  • MaskAtTheMasquerade lol yeah i loved it. it was so crazy
    October 24 02:42 AM
  • MaskAtTheMasquerade nice avatar :]
    October 22 07:26 AM
  • ThePalaceOfWisdom I still don't think anything will come of it. Every Mod except Wish is offline at the moment and I doubt they'd ban for something like this. If they did they'd have banned me ages ago.
    October 5 08:45 AM
  • ThePalaceOfWisdom Yeah but The Dirt Sheet episode 1 in the Daisy thread is far more offensive than anything there. I ran Redsparrow out of town.
    October 5 08:30 AM
  • ThePalaceOfWisdom To be honest I've not been banned since joining 2 years ago, (Somehow I get the feeling I've done worse than this) but it's kind of hilarious that the kid is oblivious to all the other s*** that's been posted in the thread.
    October 5 08:22 AM
  • ThePalaceOfWisdom So how bout that kid bitching to the mods?
    October 5 08:13 AM
  • ThePalaceOfWisdom Duncraig or Armadale, but I spend close to 90% of time in Perth city.
    October 5 07:57 AM
  • RobotFrank I can't say it's a genre I know too much about, but I have played a few of those songs on loop, as background music in my apartment many times before. They set a whimsical, dreamlike atmosphere - just as the movie does. Although I hadn't previously considered it, I really should pick up that disk..
    October 5 03:44 AM
  • RobotFrank You have a wonderful avatar. The Amelie one, not the penises.
    October 5 12:43 AM
  • Vooligan Heres the Winter In Suburbia link, dude. Enjoy.://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dizwdzyuok1
    September 30 10:54 AM
  • Douglas Yes definitely should be way up there. From his myspace, I enjoyed a fair bit, though I have such a busy listening schedule I probs want be able to get more into his stuff until December! Damn, having a music schedule sucks, but is also quite great :)
    September 30 09:21 AM
  • Douglas 4.5! Good work... Got to get as many people on the Dempsey train so he at least makes the top 50 chart at the end of the year!
    September 30 09:17 AM
  • Douglas I got both discs for $19 From JBHIFIYeah, well there is only four, and the real standout is his version of Time To Pretend by MGMT, which you can find on youtube anyway so..
    September 29 05:13 AM
  • Douglas Oh great to hear! Glad you bought it! Did it come with the covers CD?
    September 29 05:04 AM
  • Douglas Try this? ://www.filestube.com/p/paul dempsey everything is true rar
    September 29 12:45 AM
  • Douglas Thanks man I will get on it straight away! thanks a heap.
    September 27 11:01 AM
  • Douglas Oh yeah thats right! You that would be wonderful! How do i find his stuff?
