Cold - Stupid Girl

Hoorah! 'm not the only one to like Cold! The first albums is a classic, often shunned for its Fred Durst connections. Sounds like Godflesh playing Grunge. Frikkin' GREAT stuff. Quite liked the second album too, but the third ("Year of The Spider"?) wasn't so great. Turned up too late to see 'em supporting Soulfly once, but did briefly meet Scooter.....

Why are their albums always the best part of 20?

It's the same with Sevendust albums. Always found that quite confusing.

Cold are a great band. I've always been kinda confused that they didn't become a lot bigger when Staind hit big in the UK as they're not a million light years away from each other and Aaron Lewis even crops up on '13 Ways To Bleed Onstage' a few times. The guitarist buggered off to join Evanescence didn't he? Then it's all been worryingly quiet on the Cold news front....

My soundtrack for the day has mainly included:

Tegan & Sara - Don't Confess

Million Dead - I Gave My Eyes To Stevie Wonder

Boy Kill Boy - Suzie

Misfits - Helena

Turbonegro - High On The Crime

Quality stuff from the much-underrated Sound Affects. Your taste really does veer from the sublime to the ridiculous, tho

Today I have been mostly wearing tight "pants", a leather jacket and sunglasses (indoors), hence:

Beginning To See The Light - The Velvet Underground

I Got A Right - Iggy and the Stooges

Born to Lose - Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers

Sixteen Blue - The Replacements

Streets of your town - The Go-betweens

What choices do you regard as sublime and ridiculous' date=' just out of interest? Remembering that famous old saying 'Da knock it till yiv tried it'!!!! :D[/quote']

Nah, I take that back, I realise you just like anthing with a tune, whether it's done by swaggering louts in parkas, or dudes in leather jackets and shades, which I respect.

The MC5 are rubbish, note I didn't put them in my 60s/70s Detroit/New York list yesterday, because they are rubbish. I was rocking to a bit of No Fun yesterday, tho

1, Slow Fade - Teenage Fanclub

2, For A Smile - Cosmic Rough Riders

3, Play Dead - Astrid

4, Days Run Away - House of Love

5, Never Understand - The Jesus and Mary Chain

Alas, I don't own a floral blouse, but if I did, by Christ I'd be wearing it today
