I just think most bands get worse near the end of their career, they lose the energy of their early albums period.

"You spend your whole life writing your first album."

Rob Instigator 07.25.2008 01:35 PM

that is very true

bands may be together for years before that first album comes out and it contains years worth of inspirationa nd frustration and ideas and musical bits.
the second album, for most bands, is written fresh from scratch, which is a bad idea, and which leaves you writing songs about how "hard it is" on tour and bullshit like that.

after a while, when you are succesful, you try too hard, becaue how can you write angry rock songs or sad rock songs when you are confortable, living and eating well, and enjoying life for maybe the very first time?

that is why popstars last longer than rock ussually. they can just keep peddling the same glossy feel-good bullshit with the same hooks all the time.

That's an awesome quote. There are so many first albums that kick total ass.

Probably PJ Harvey.

My friend's wouldn't be down.

EDIT: They don't even know who she is.

HECKLER SPRAY 07.26.2008 04:38 PM

Sonic Youth

It's a secret somehow, cause a lot of my friends don't know that I listen to this band. Ok, They don't even know this band...
Does it count ?

acousticrock87 07.26.2008 04:45 PM

I suppose it counts, but it is a damn boring answer. :p

DeadDiscoDildo 07.26.2008 04:50 PM

Everything I like I make it known, I'm not ashamed of anything I listen to.

I like a few lilly allen songs.

Boring ? Because you were waiting for a " I listen to Placebo but I feel ashamed" kind of answer ?
No. I don't listen to Placebo.
And I never feel ashamed of the music I like.

Death & the Maiden 07.27.2008 02:03 AM

I like two of the Sex Pistols' post-Johnny Rotten singles - No One is Innocent, and The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle.

Melly true facts: I was in a guitar orchestra thingy with 1994, before anyone knew who he was - he looked "normal" too - no make up, dyed hair etc. I had a HUGE crush on him. Then when he came out with Placebo, I saw his pic, went "nooooo!", and my unrequited love for him died. Bastard.

Oh, Melly, that' s a sad story...:(
A crush on him ?

MellySingsDoom 07.27.2008 09:34 AM

Heckler Spray - yes, really. It was that (amongst other incidents) that made me slowly realise that I was gay after all. You know the feeling you have when you're knocked over by the beauty of a woman, to the point that you feel a bit shy just looking at them? Well, I had the gay version of that...I didn't tell a soul a the time, either - nothing to do with Molko, by the way, more to do with my very mixed-up feelings and emotions back then.

MellySingsDoom 07.27.2008 09:37 AM

Funny you mention the Gilmour solo CD - I've heard bits of it sober, and felt that it was "tasteful, but a bit boring". Perhaps if I was more fucked up, I'd "get" it a lot more?

demonrail666 07.27.2008 09:47 AM

It's OK. Very polished (as you'd nodoubt expect). Easy to dismiss out of hand as mere wallpaper music for Q readers - which it is, basically.

therealglenstyler 07.28.2008 04:15 AM

new radicals....there, I said it.

candymoan 07.28.2008 04:29 AM

hmm..
i still enjoy thrash metal.. megadeth and slayer..
i'm a sucker when it comes to guitar solos in early dire straits..
and i really like some of the sugar saturated pop that appears occasionally on the charts..
"toxic" for example, is a pretty strong song...

i have a feeling, i'm going to crucified for my confessions now...

fugazifan 07.28.2008 04:42 AM

yeah liking slayer...really shameful:-)
toxic is a great song
and dire straits have sonme good tunes

greedrex 07.28.2008 05:09 AM

i secretly like EJST&NS and RR

I actually really love that 'You Get What You Give' song.

_slavo_ 07.28.2008 06:24 AM

They've got other songs too?

ehm

is that the one where they slag off marilyn manson and courtney love?

shit song.

demonrail666 07.28.2008 06:46 AM

That's the one. Oh, is it? I liked it, but I'll make sure I don't from now on. Phew, that was close. Thanks!

batreleaser 07.28.2008 08:33 AM

i used to like it back in the 90's, but it was obvious the guy was an utter cunt, innit? what with the hat an all (makes me think, if he faked a few dance moves out of michael jackson's repertoire, he would have been a huge star, just like jamiroquai).

now i'm sick of the song.

Rob Instigator 07.28.2008 10:44 AM

so many people hate on jamiroquai

the world needs soulful funky dance songs that last 7 minutes and have 8 different changes and actually sound BETTER and make you dance MORE than most anything stevie (OVERRATED) Wonder ever put out. have you actually listened to songs in the key of life? so fuicking boring! so dull!

Cantankerous 07.28.2008 10:45 AM

jamiroquai is whiter than bobby gillespie.

demonrail666 07.28.2008 10:47 AM

The guy is, clearly a cunt. Isn't he some really successful songwriter or something? I think he did ronan Keating's Rollercoaster single which, isn't that disimilar in some ways.

New Radicals: http://youtube.com/watch?v=91WgM6dNLTE
Ronan Keating: http://youtube.com/watch?v=xXhcHHOfRaw

Rob Instigator 07.28.2008 10:47 AM

supa white, but his songs JAM, and they do so in the vein of the old soul funk masters and there is nothing wrong with that.

his hat however....

Everyneurotic 07.28.2008 10:49 AM

i'll say that the one album with "virtual insanity" and all those songs has some good tunes, but that guy with his shit ass hats and "i jack off to michael jackson's dangerous tour video" moves really makes me want to cripple him.

where's the twat thread when you need it?

demonrail666 07.28.2008 10:49 AM

Even if I heard a Jamiroqui song that completely rocked my world, I'd never accept it. It'd be like falling in love with a child murderer. Some things you just have to supress.

Cantankerous 07.28.2008 10:51 AM

do i have to like primal scream in secret? because i fully admit to loving screamadelica but i still think there is no bigger twat on earth than bobby gillespie.

Everyneurotic 07.28.2008 10:53 AM

i love vanishing point and xtrmntr and tons of their singles, and i absolutely know bobby gillespie is the biggest public cunt in rock right now.

if someone asked if i liked them, i wouldn't deny it.

demonrail666 07.28.2008 10:53 AM

Primal Scream are a far better band than Bobbie Gillespie lets them be.

i can listen to a song like Country Girl and think, this is fucking great. If only they could find it in them to sack their singer.

Rob Instigator 07.28.2008 10:54 AM

This is my first time hearing of this Bobbie Gillespie fella
