  11. why don't you come and say that to my face?
  12. hiyas i've decided to get rid of a bunch of cds i don't listen to anymore. i thought i'd try and punt them on here first, if they aren't gone by the end of next week i'm going to sell them to music magpie or burn them all in a big fire. i haven't decided yet. all cds are at least playable. some have barely been played at all. a lot were initially copied to mini-disc by my teenaged self then left on a shelf until now. i'm selling them for £1 each. but if you buy two, i'll throw in a third for FREE!! 3 cds for £2!! Fatboy Slim - You've Come A Long Way Baby Fun Lovin' Criminals - 100 Colombian Jamiroquai - Travelling Without Moving Maths - Descent The Presidents Of The USA - s/t Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing Jamiroquai - Return Of The Space Cowboy Terrorvision - Regular Urban Survivors Soulwax - Much Against Everyone'S Advice Semisonic - Great Divide Merz - Merz Foo Fighters - There Is Nothing Left To Lose Terrorvision - Shaving Peaches Manic Street Preachers - This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours Clearlake - Cedars Elbow - Cast of Thousands [Digipak] Primal Scream - Evil Heat Red Snapper - Our Aim Is To Satisfy Red Snapper Turin Brakes - The Optimist Lp UNKLE - Psyence Fiction Missy Misdemeanor Elliott - Miss E...

  13. PAWS "You'd probably need a powerpoint presentation complete with pie charts and flow diagrams to properly summarise PAWS' 2011, but the edited highlights include a well attended T Break set, a split single with Lady North on Gerry Loves Records, radio sessions and even an NME mention. Having gigged constantly through the year, 2012 promises to be very exciting for the head-rattling three-piece. There's now talk of label interest with plenty more gigs planned, and they are due to start recording their debut album in London this month. There's also a huge amount of older material available for free download on their SoundCloud page, which suggests a spot of spring cleaning before a fresh stage in their career. If you're not familiar with the band think a fast and furious Dinosaur Jr - rapid fire pop songs coated in layers of distortion. We think they're in for quite a year." (The Scotsman) DOLFINZ "DOLFINZ is a two-piece from Stonehaven in Scotland. Their music perpetuates the great time-honoured tradition of Indie music-making in it’s most honest and truest form: lo-fi, shambolic, un-tamed, playful, and without the tampering sterile hand of a music school education. Kicking petulantly through the streets and hills of Aberdeenshire Dolfinz shift from garage noise (‘Blowhole’) through to bubblegum surf pop (‘Hot Pants’), sometimes psyched and heavy and drenched in plenty plenty distortion and reverb, other times whistful and hazy, all behind-the-beat drumming, lazy strumming, and the occasional Ducktails-esque psyche reversed guitar line (‘Bubblegum’). Dolfinz currently have a 7” single available on Tuff Wax Records, and a 12” split release due out in April on Toad Records, before their tour with Slowcoaches begins in March. This will be their 4th UK TOUR. They have previously played gigs with bands such as Cults, Sic Alps, The Babies, Bos Angeles, Islet, Fear of Men, PAWS, Former Bullies." (http://www.copsandrobbers.net/) MIN DIESEL No one ever writes nice things about Min Diesel. Not anything that I can find after 30 seconds of Googling, anyway. Here is a link to their new song though: http://soundcloud.com/mindiesel Cafe Drummonds 8.30pm, £5
  14. is this it? http://libertyfalling.bandcamp.com/ not interested in singing for you, just doing my good deed for the day.
  15. every time i hear them mentioned on northsound i think the dj is talking about a similarly monikered local band
  16. these are the covers of records i listened to frequently during phases of my life, presented in roughly the order i listened to them. (although i'm starting to prefer ) (or the second one), . although i don't listen to these records as much as i did, i'm nowhere near sick of any of them yet. does that mean they're my favourites
  17. i'd bet money they'll curate the other winter atp this year. if i had any money.
