 | Pon miss this legend like you wouldn't believe
|
 | zakalwe Merry Christmas mate. As yours ends mine starts. Tunes on pints in and forget about troubles for a few hours. Hope you and family are well. You are a diamond.
|
 | mryrtmrnfoxxxy Wow that does sound nice man, glad to hear it. yeah i stopped going after new music for a few years there too. came back and found Protomartyr, Chat Pile, and Narrow Head for new musics, and for old stuff ive been diving into noise rock pretty heavy. favs: Cows, Butthole Surfers, Cherubs. you should check The Breeders - Pod sometime if you havent yet
|
 | mryrtmrnfoxxxy hell yeah, glad you?re doing good man! i?m doing fine. got a condo and a couple cats. have you been jamming anything cool recently?
|
 | unclereich ohhhh buddy, so nice to see your name pop up. so many great memories. hope youre doing great man! im well thank you so much for asking.
|
 | mryrtmrnfoxxxy hey bro it?s been a while since i saw you on here. where you at? i miss you! hope you?re good
|
 | zakalwe Ive said it before and ill say it again Im sure we are one and the same just separated by a hemisphere and you strolling around in flip flops or thongs whatever the ****. All is good mate I cant complain. Been a Grey few years with this covid malarkey but until they start rearranging our dna and planting chips in our eyeballs sod it. The cricket has really got me down, ****ing abysmal showing by our boys.
|
 | zakalwe Well I will always be on here for a chat mate. You probably won?t want to hear this but I am sure you are OK. We all over do it in our twenties and theres the perpetual cycle of being on the piss and hangovers. The waking up in the morning gasping for a lager is an alarm bell but it comes and goes. Like everything it ebbs and flows you just need to know and understand when you are taking the piss with overdoing it. Again like everything it?s balance. Fancy a pint? lol.
|
 | WhiteNoise The new Froosh album is probably my favourite of his new electronic period.
|
 | unclereich hey tom, I saw your comment before you removed it. Ive been banned for a while so my apologies for the late response. miss you on here buddy, if you have an instagram or something let me know, would love to catch up sometime. cheers dude
|
 | BigPleb Plebstrap is still going strong man m/
|
 | zakalwe Hope you?re well son. You still following the vet dream?
|
 | Pon ****ing gooch
|
 | Pon I mean I'm doing just fine, thanks for asking :3
|
 | Pon I feel you friend, I am well on my way to becoming a cantankerous old fart; looking forward to the days I can wax poetic to starry eyed gen Z'ers about the functional limitations of VHS tapes, but also how they were somehow better than modern mediums because change frightens me
|
 | Pon sup you gorgeous human being
|
 | zakalwe I?m alright mate, few ups and downs to be honest but that?s life innit. Hope you?re well son. I highly recommend Tindersticks - Tindersticks II
|
 | Rowan5215 yeah decent, master's course starts today so I'm sweatin bullets
|
 | Rowan5215 Shoulda written blue blazer blues, I know. sup dude
|
 | Rowan5215 GOODBYES ALWAYS TAKE US... HALF AN HOUR
|
 | Slex No problem, enjoy!
|
 | Slex http://codes.beggars.com code: WEL3i9P876Z
|
 | Rowan5215 who plays at the opera house anyway? it's like watching a film of a concert on a ****in Gameboy screen at fifty feet
|
 | Rowan5215 heart says yet but my wallet says no, only shows are at the Opera House for about $150 ffs. hoping they'll announce more shows at the Enmore or somewhere else accessible to human beings
|
 | Rowan5215 you gonna catch Natty next feb when they hit up aus?
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass Arsing about with animals? Same old stuff here mate. Still got the better cricket team.
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass All good thanks bro. Glad it's the weekend, going to get drunk as **** I imagine.What are you doing with yourself these days big ears?
|
 | Rowan5215 prolly Andre 3000 with a gun to my head. Ghostface, Earl and Nas would definitely get a nod
|
 | Rowan5215 I feel exactly the same way about tennis tbf
|
 | Rowan5215 demi would be proud! but who is the GOAT rapper is the real q
|
 | zakalwe Can't complain TG, ducking and diving weaving and bobbing still miserable as arseholes.
|
 | zakalwe I wake up with a smile on my face every morning.....to get it over and done with.
|
 | zakalwe Ello TG. Hope all is well and the futures bright.
|
 | Rowan5215 I dig it, not their best but if they can pull out another song Memory level it would justify everything else being not that great
|
 | Rowan5215 yeah lad pre-ordered the vinyl soon as it got announced, thoughts on the song?
|
 | Rowan5215 agreed it's like an Amnesiac pt. 2, really want someone to make a master playlist of the two the way errone was doing with OKC and In Rainbows back in the day
|
 | Rowan5215 damn, agreed Inhibition is by far the best but nothing grabs you at all? Memory is amazing. But yeah if they combine the aesthetic of Inhibition with the more confident sounds of HYP they would be onto something special
|
 | Rowan5215 idk my instincts kicked in and I thought the soppy piano ballad should naturally go last but maybe you're right, Sermon is v gorgeous. WHATEVER YOU SAY IS KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWN
|
 | Rowan5215 You mean Rewire and Neon Arrow on the HYP album? idk, the vibes of Inhibition and HYP seem too different to me, but it might work. Something like Whatever You Want, First in Forever, Slideclimb, Floating up the Stairs, Elevator, Memory, Mission Creep, Rest Assure, Sermon of Sorts, Anger maybe?
|
 | Rowan5215 agreed work is definitely the better of the two. I'll concede that Memory off play might be their best song but overall nothing really touches Inhibition. kinda feel that HYP should have been one 9 or 10 track album to cut out the filler and that way there isn't the hype-killing four month wait
|
 | Rowan5215 how do you feel about the how's your process albums with hindsight? they bore me a bit now
|
 | tempest-- i said i was gonna write a review for meg mac like 4 months ago and now its actually done :D
|
 | Ire What up brooOOoO
|
 | Ire this site is boring af. s*** changed when chans mom died from gettin ****ed by all those homeless people
|
 | Rowan5215 I was so turned on by their lack of conclusions (and human population) in blayney
|
 | Rowan5215 I live in blayney now, rubbish innit
|
 | Rowan5215 would toast him with some ciders but no alcohol in the house, alas
|
 | Ire damn nigga larks' 1/5 smdh
|
 | unclereich He was my elvis dude ill never forget where i was when it happened

|
 | OZZGabriel Have you listened yet to the version of 'Zone' that Frusciante released?
|
 | Pon "Will prob twat my pom ass" - BigPleb, 2013
|
 | Pon LET'S AVE IT!!
|
 | evilford King Crimson Larks' Tongues in Aspic 1.0 ???????????????????
|

|
 | Rowan5215 aye, that gradual build goddamn. also tommy lives
|
 | Rowan5215 damn did you know bout this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r26VsCGCgb0
|
 | Rowan5215 pretty good - realised I'm not as good at conversation as I thought I was so that was something I worked on gradually but the few long convos I had were terrific, classes were all great, lots of new ideas. good luck with it dude
|
 | Rowan5215 holidays, doing nothing and loving it, how bout you
|
 | Rowan5215 tom returns in the classiest way possible [2]
|
 | zakalwe Not too bad son. Horrific job, bills, dreaming of holidays that never happen but rather that than the uni days. Top to toe full of complete wankers who thought they were the bees knees. I dropped out after 15mnths sought employment and headed off to your neck of the woods where the hangovers really did sort the men from the boys.
|
 | zakalwe Jesus, I take me hat off to ya pal.
|
 | zakalwe How's it going dude, performed any tracheotomys on platypuses yet?
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=822992nEW SONG FAMALAMALAMAMAM
|
 | Cygnatti have you jammed new milo greene? it's p cool stuff. :]
|
 | Arcade true, my vision may be clouded by the fact i find her insatiably attractive. but dude how can you not jam along to "Pedestrian at Best", that tune goes so hard
|
 | Arcade damn no love for courtney b?
|
 | Jots sup man, you might dig this new Joanne Robertson (i think i remember her other album being on a list of yours...)
|
 | demigod! i jammed smile once like a year back... thought it was just an unfocused, messier version of niandra. ill give it another go tho i guess. and I've heard shadows collide and to record water. they were both nice and decent and all but nothing really blew me away or stuck out like most of automatic writing
|
 | demigod! yo dude im loving the first ataxia lp, but i can't really get into froosh's solo stuff apart from niandra. which album(s) would you recommend me dr. gun?
|
 | zakalwe Israel Nash - Rain Plans. You'll dig dude.
|
 | zakalwe All good son. How's things treating you? Degree, love, active and a bright future or dropout, lonley, crippling addiction and in the gutter?
|
 | Pon Tommy, so I'm gonna go for staff and I was wondering what you think my 3 best reviews are? Also sup
|
 | tempest-- agreed dude mainly cos of Coattails wow that song is amaz, man I gotta see em!
|
 | tempest-- I never disliked that album but idk I've just listened to it a whole bunch and I'm in love!
|
 | Pon check out my new 'techre review tho it's all about obliteration and satan and spider drumz but not rly
|
 | Pon never in me life
|
 | Pon Oh s*** lol, nuh she turned out to be a bit of a loony stalker type so I'm keeping my distance now
|
 | Pon Not much, starting yet ANOTHER new job on Thursday so I'm pre excited
|
 | Cygnatti I honestly don't like it any time the "main villain(s)" are directly involved, I mean like when the demon thing and ppl like meg on screen. Otherwise I'm enjoying pretty much every single thing about it.
|
 | Cygnatti So I just got to the 2nd season and good lord. Lovin' it so far but like how the hell do you make 200 more episodes of dis s***?!
|
 | Rowan5215 Those horns though they get my arse shakin' like nothing else
|
 | Rowan5215 PEOPLE TURN THE TV ON IT LOOKS JUST LIKE A WINDOW - YAHHHHHH
|
 | Rowan5215 Agreed hard I actually heard one metal album I liked this year and I was WOAH that's a huge improvement from previous years! St. Vincent has changed my listening habits permanently I swear to ****in god
|
 | Rowan5215 So was 2014 the year female singer-songwriters took over the world or what I mean Marissa, Banks, ****in' Annie and Sharon omg
|
 | Rowan5215 ~still remember all the words to all the songs you ever heard driiiiiiiiiive~
|
 | Rowan5215 xooooo mooooom it's okay it's alright nothin's wrong
|
 | Rowan5215 Drinking is bad for you though gotta stay healthy! thanks for the wishes
|
 | tempest-- thx, i've been digging lots of not-metal stuff this year might even listen to t swift??? idk :)
|
 | tempest-- when the chorus explodes i get groovin every time
|
 | tempest-- hello mr gun have you heard Yellow Flicker Beat?
|
 | Rowan5215 yo would I dig this marissa nadler?
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah I know she worked with the Dessner bros. on some of her solo stuff and she also sings the femvox that rip your heart out of your chest on Thirteen by the Antlers m/
|
 | Rowan5215 Damn why didn't you tell me about it earlier then! I saw Granduciel from TWOD was on it so I was like yeah insta-5 probably
|
 | Rowan5215 You should jam Sharon Van Etten - Are We There
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah dude it's an official documented stamped and sealed, big red ticks next to every box where she's concerned :D
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah her voice is lovely, lyrics are pretty good, sick beatz, great melodies, she's beautiful, basically flawless
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah that's what I thought, nice to shake things up a little. Not gonna be an easy list to make though not only have there been amazing albums this year but a ****ton of standout songs from those albums it'll probably end up being like 80 songs long! Yeah it's swee typical heart-warming falsetto indie goodness from the boys
|
 | Rowan5215 Also gonna knock up a review for the new Copeland either this week or next (once the site decides it's been officially released because delays in CD shippings etc) give it a squiz
|
 | Rowan5215 Haha, they're not always that bad, you can find some good stuff if you avoid the lists of potsy and suchlike. Thanks for the kind words and likewise :D I'm thinking of doing a songs list instead of albums list, it'll cover most of the albums I loved from this year anyway and at least it's not more of the same "this album has good and bad parts I like it" stuff
|
 | zakalwe Always. I see It's far from cool down under though. All sweating ya tits off and trying to get rid of new born babies in sewage pipes.
|
 | Rowan5215 Man it's been one of my favourite years in recent memory though I must've heard three times as many albums as I did from 2013
|
 | Rowan5215 Under the Pressure is one of the top 3 songs of the year surely the bit where the drums speed up is the freaking best. gotta jam Banks sometime soon
|
 | Rowan5215 Seein TWOD at the top makes me feel so good dude! Haven't heard like any of the others except Dot Hacker though whoops
|
 | Cygnatti yeeee def, well so far anyways. don't think i'll be able to watch anything for a while tho. god can't wait for this goddamned semester to be over.
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah people who listen to every album from a year are freaks agreed. You should spin the new Copeland though
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah proper s***e innit I dig A Little God In My Hands only cos of the groove but **** the vocals are horrendous. Look forward to seeing your list
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah dude your vote is needed or Swans might come first!!!!!!!!!!!1 any thoughts on your AOTY?
|
 | Rowan5215 Yahh dude I was one of the first, first page of the voting thread about three or four comments down. Didn't really think too hard about it just scrolled through iTunes and picked the best candidates :]
|
 | Cygnatti idk i dig em. i dig all the characters i've seen so far (not many).
|
 | Cygnatti s*** I hope so. I'm just not good at commitment. x.x
|
 | Cygnatti So like do I have watch like 3 whole seasons before seeing Cas? Say it ain't so. D:
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah fair enough. It's ****ing weird but hey it's Bowie hopefully it's the precursor to a new album sometime
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah dude, new single with a best of album, had no idea until I heard about it today. This is the radio edit, it's some whacky s*** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFX1y62l9C4
|
 | Rowan5215 When the hell did new Bowie happen goddamn it's so good
|
 | Pon dude i got 4 pledges this afternoon and my manager says he's gonna give me a bonus life is good right now
|
 | NorthernSkylark great indie pop! like sonic youth with less noise, so that they sound more like real estate etc. just jam 'shut up' and hear for yourself
|
 | NorthernSkylark jam this now http://posseposse.bandcamp.com/album/soft-opening
|
 | Pon Never in me life
|
 | Jots sup tommy, got a new review if you're especially bored and care to gander
|
 | Rowan5215 check my new review if you've got time in that busy schedule man
|
 | Rowan5215 Yeah so I heard. Journalism would be pretty sweet I reckon but there's a different theatre course that I have my eyes on so I guess effectively I've got three back-ups if I don't get into the theatre one. Still it's so good now I don't have to give two s***s about whether my exam results were good or not
|
 | Rowan5215 Haha, the funny thing is, I don't quite know yet. The way I understand it I've got into three courses - journalism, radio and theatre practice - and I get to pick which one I prefer, so I'm not sure about it yet
|
 | Pheromone think of how alone it is, dont be selfish
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass Good stuff, get yourself over to the UK once you've done for a winter holiday, we'll go meet Morrissey.
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass I'm sure you'll dig it. How are you getting on in your exams? Now going into Winter over here which sucks, but means I'll be listening to a lot of metal!
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass Cheers dude, album's gonna be instrumental neo-folk. Very minimal focussing on melody / harmony and creating moods. How have you been anyway? I aint been around recently!
|
 | ButteryBiscuitBass Alright mate? Check out my new track https://soundcloud.com/meus1/sons-and-lovers
|
 | Rowan5215 I'll GO BACK ~i'll go back~ if you ASK I'll GO BACK ~i'll go back~ if you AASSSK MEEE
|
 | Futures hey tom what's up man? idk how familiar with damien rice but his new album has just completely floored me. i can't stop listening to it. i think this is something you would really love
|
 | Pon no worries m80 good to talk again less-than-three
|
 | zakalwe As long as the real world stuff hasn't caused dramas it's good to see ya pal!
|
 | zakalwe Where have you been dude? The banter is turd when you're not about!
|
 | Rowan5215 No problems ol buddy ol pal take your time
|
 | Rowan5215 On another note you should read/critique my latest review and maybe even listen to the album its for if you have time :]
|
 | Rowan5215 Cheers dude appreciated! That's mainly the song I was looking for, heard it on YouTube and it was ~~~
|
 | Rowan5215 I was just jammin it on spotify and there's some lovely ambient-style Kling tracks, a couple of acoustic Bob songs that call back to the album style, and then one Bob and Josh song called Burn, But Don't Burn Out which is just ....fuk
|
 | Rowan5215 Also have you seen the doco and/or heard the soundtrack for Bob and the Monster? Was listening to the soundtrack earlier and one of the songs literally brought me to tears so I should probably see the doco
|
 | Rowan5215 2001 version is the one I jammed and its perfect but I'm curious to hear the other songs as well. Do you happen to have the Stoned single cos that'd be m/ Glad to see you back btw dude its been dull as **** without you around, hope you feel better
|
 | Rowan5215 I know you're on break from techology or whatev but when you get back just wanted to say, checked out the Bicycle Thief and adored it, do you have a high quality download I can maybe grab off you? Mine keeps on cutting out and its irritating as hell. If you have the 1999 version with the other tracks that'd be even sweeter
|
 | Arcade mah boi it is time http://www.allmusic.com/blog/post/dot-hacker-album-premiere-and-interview
|
 | Rowan5215 Wouldn't expect anything less from the gun
|
|
