Closer by Nine Inch Nails duet by Kermit and Miss Piggy.

Taking Back Sunday are to Sunny Day Real Estate what Busted are to The Clash (sorry, TBS fans, "Cute without the 'e'" is catchy, but those guys strike me as being of dubious integrity), it's not really fare to write off some awsome bands because of some dubious modern ones.

As for Art Punk, I've heard the Icarus Line be labelled that, but I'm really not sure. I opened this thread to learn something, but instead I died a little inside and had to write this post through a mist of salty tears.

how many of the "local bands" people have in their profile are actually real? and are we ever going to hear them if they've not played yet?

a few examples (and no, i'm not having "a go" these were just the first few i could think of )

zak attack

five finger discount

shape/shift

and the ubiquitous none yet

Zack Attack are playing together, and writing and most definitley probably hopefully won't be called Zack Attack if and hopefully, when, we gig. June at the VERY LEAST. When we arrive you will shit yourselves.

All things considered, I'd probaly have more respect for most bands I'm "supposed" to if they weren't shoved down my throat all the time. I can see how and why Nirvana were important, but between radio, TV and the press I think I've seen more than enough of them these past few days to last me a lifetime.

Yeah, but quietly, once the little 'uns are asleep.

Adrain is a guys name.

Adrienne is a girls name, and i assume the song is about a girl.

i may however be wrong, coz the singer looks like a bufty.

sounds like one too. You know what they say...looks like a bufty, sounds like a bufty...

The best way to dump someone is to punch away or their bullets and try and do as many throws moves as possible...

...or was that how to beat Mr X? Whatever, just kick her in the taco until it's blue.

The soundtrack for Requiem For A Dream is also pretty damn spectacular. It has the Kronos Quartet for a start but i think the electronics were done by somebody involved with Nine Inch Nails. The first track in particular is amazing.

Wasn't it one of the PWEI guys? I remember reading that one of them worked on Pi with Daron ArfArfgoingskiing or whatever the hell his name is.

Anyone here at this? Possibly not, seeing as it wasn't very busy. Maybe the 10 entry put some people off checking them out- shame, as it was an amazing gig. It was only the original singer, Sky Saxon, now looking like a tramp in a shiny jacket, with a younger replacement band, but they managed to sound amazingly like the original 60s line up. Sky Saxon didn't have to trade on hero-worship either: I brought some people along with me that didn't have a clue who the Seeds were, much less were they into 60s garage-psyche, yet seemed blown away by the band. This sorta contrasts with the impression I got from the Damo Suzuki gig, but that's another story.

I don't know. Anyone like the Seeds here? The Doors used to support them, you know.

I liked it a lot. Is the guy really called Sky Saxon? That sounds like a member of the Justice Society, which is kinda rocking. Yep, I'm gonna by a Seeds album I think.

After trying to get rid of an e.p for 2 i've decided that you smelly gits will only take it for free so if anyone's interested I can give it away tomorrow night at moshulu. Thats a D-Rail e.p, basically played an amazing show in drakes but they're E.P was a bit of a disappointment (too metal for my liking).

probably best not to PM as I keep running out of space.

Give it to a homeless, the bittersweet realisation that will dawn on them when they find they don't have a CD player is too good to miss.
