Dan G Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 I have to be honest the new stuff really just doesn't do it for me... It's not bad, I just don't think it's all that good."So into You" Vs Inglorious (or actually anything pre 1996)no contest!However I would relish the opportunity to see them live again as they have written 5 x more awesomely classic songs as most bands could ever wish to!

Afro Droid Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 I partially agree, but the new stuff is still great. Comparing 'Inglorious' to *anyone's* music and that song will still win every time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ is married to a japanese girl.The only Jap release getting though is 'Tokyo Suits Me', it's a double live record, and a classic throughout.

I was beyond fucked that day.Saw them play 'Sky Babies' at the Barras last year when they played with Amen. And each of the 14 minutes of rifftastic rock was ambrosia to the ears!

Guest stuartmaxwell Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 ii was due to go to that gig, had me ticket an all, then had to GIVE it away, i should have quit that stinking job so i could have went, boohooi missed mogwai and sky babies at the barras last year, an absolute fucking travesty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Droid Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 Jon Poole is playing bass again for this tour, I wouldn't be surprised if Sky Babies popped up on a few dates. They certainly played it on a few dates in Japan in December last year. Here's hoping Dregen joins them onstage for some Super$hit 666 action...

My word, track down the S$666 EP as soon as possible, that's some fucking righteous rock n'roll right there. Infact, come to Air Guitar on Saturday and I'll play some. There are clips here:http://www.thewildhearts.com/audio.shtmlRecorded in 1998, released in 2000, and set to annoy neighbours everywhere 'til well into the 22nd century, this 18-minute rollercoaster ride through hard, fast and very, very LOUD rock 'n' roll is the ultimate wake up call. Ginger hooks up with Backyard Babies guitarist Dregen, The Hellacopters' Nick Royale and producer Tomas Skogsberg to create some of the dirtiest music ever committed to CD.I LOVE Silver Ginger 5, the first gig was the best show I've ever seen. Consider them a happier, glammier Wildhearts. 'Black Leather Mojo' is much better than the new WH album. Check this out, it's the video for 'Sonic Shake':http://www.thewildhearts.com/video.shtmlAs far as I know, the singles club is dead, mainly due to the incompetance of Infernal. Probably for the best, the quality of the material was dwindling a bit. The first two are awesome, but the most recent one was a bit dissapointing.From the horse's mouth: "I don't know what's up with Infernal. It looks increasingly like I'm going to have to clean up this one myself. Don't worry, the songs already recorded will see the light of day."

Afro Droid Posted February 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 I think we'll be having a pre-gig soiree in the Black Bull, a kick ass biker pub not far from the venue, if you'd care to join us. We can communicate about it nearer the time though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afro Droid Posted February 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 A message from Ginger explaining the tour support: "I am saddened to see that the Backyard Babies have pulled out of our April tour. I know that a lot of people that read this web site, and the mailing list, are Backyard Babies fans, and I am sorry to those of you that have already bought tickets to see them. An official explanation from the Backyard Babies has yet to surface, so I am still in the dark as to why this has happened. We do, however, have Therapy? playing with us instead!!!!! If anyone thinks that this is not just as good, if not better, a bill, then I suggest instant medical attention. Therapy? are one of the greatest live bands to ever exist, and I for one, am as excited as fuck to be playing with them as our very special guests, and presumably wiping the floor with us on some nights. This is going to be a tough one. It looks like The Glitterati are providing third on the bill thrills too, so get down early and see this lot before they go nuclear, and leave you behind. And they will. Believe me, I think this is the best bill we have ever put together....and that's really saying something. Roll on April. Rock and Fucking Roll, Motherfuckers!!!"www.thewildhearts.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Elvis Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I may have to drag my lazy ass down to Liquid Rooms. Will probably take my bro who has roped in to go and see W.A.S.P. in May. Prefer to leave the wheels this time, so I can get bevvied.
