I don't think lesbonic is a word...

Why is promoting arguments necessary? Why is anything necessary?

Why do people come up with "lamest band of the year"? I don't need this cynicism or lack of appreciation of the fact that actual music is being made. I'm surprised this thread continued so long. People must have so much spite for, what I see as, no apparent reason

I am Citizen Insane by Radiohead... it's the most strange thing: a constant humming and whirling and sounds like barbed wire being stepped on. Perfect song if you like Kid A

Haha that one from Gremlins was excellent!

I got this from one of the many muse forums I've been on: "Go out and get some wood from the shed... if you can't find some wood, bring in the shed!"

Ah, mine's crap

Manic Street Preachers is a great name' date=' it's appropriate and sounds good.

Thrice however, is a fucking awful name. As are the names of 90% of Emo bands, especially the ones that looked like they've been chopped from the middle of a sentence or the one's with Day/Month names like Taking Back Sunday.[/quote']

...agreed. And also any band with a number in the title. Unless the number is relevant to something... which is usually not the case

Wow, none of those apply to me... apart from the silk shirt in my jeans... man is that embarassing

It's not actually that bad. I take it like the Manics' Love Of Richard Nixon: very mellow but in also very good

Since Fopp dont do second hand music' date=' t shirts, vinyl or more obscure Cds et al I doubt they will put One Up out of business. Asda / Tesco / Amazon etc are more likely to put HMV / Virgin / Fopp out of business in the long term because of the intense price competition rather than range / customer service focus.

BTW I wonder how One Up will do when the Cavern vol 2 opens this month?

What?! Where?

It's a neat song... where's this EP available?

"163 people like idlewild"

Yes, but amongst thousands of other fans

Bob Dylan: Highway 61 Revisited

Jeff Buckley: Grace

Rage Against The Machine: Rage Against The Machine

Muse: Showbiz

Radiohead: OK Computer

Bright Eyes: Fevers and Mirrors

Doolittle: The Pixies

Yeah! I'm getting a ticket: their new album rules (refers to Biffy Clyro)

i will be most disappointed if it is idlewild haven't had a single bad album and i will CRY if this one's poor. oh' date=' also noticed that you like muse, radiohead, sonic youth, pixies, placebo, bright eyes, the smiths, pavement & the libertines. how cool [/quote']

I also noticed you liked the Moldy Peaches... I was under the impression that I was the only one who knew about them

Unknown Host (Error 500)

Right then...

*turns into a publicity stunt*

It's sort of mellow... not what I like to be honest. I hope the album isn't like this

All prices are standardised accross the whole chain' date=' so they're not undercutting one-up just to get rid of them....Fopp's just cheap for a lot of stuff.

Personally I like the new store - it's much more like the others - spacious and modern. I use Fopp to buy cheap DVD's and books etc but I get most of my stuff on the internet now as well. It's hard to find anything cheaper than it is on Amazon, unless it's in a special promotion ala Fopp's 5, 7 etc. I like OneUp a lot - but i'm going to buy my stuff wherever it's cheapest.[/quote']

Unless you work for Fopp and are trying to undermine us...

I guess what we have here then is the same situation with play.com and amazon.co.uk... Play is better for dvds as is Fopp and Amazon is great for cds. It's a matter of preference really.

You've heard it? Well thanks for putting a downer on my evening!

So is Disney Land

Apathy is killing America

Really? Well that proved me wrong. Apologies, I just don't like America at the moment

Idlewild's new single is going to be broadcast tonight on Steve Lamacq... I win!

Okay... so maybe not
