Anyone see the new single by...

[Electric ~soul~]

...the Arctic Kaiser Ordinary Bravery Hard-Fi Monkeys on CD:UK at the weekend?

 

Yawn.

 

The current music scene.

 

YAWN YAWN YAWN.

[gertcha EFM]

No but Depeche Mode's new album is out today.

[Electric ~soul~]

Where did the single get to in the end?

[gertcha EFM]

No idea mate. I presume number 1 but I don't look at the charts.

[Bad_Egg]

 

well i bought it and it woz so good i went and bought both singles comps and the remix album next up violator i already have music for the masses

[Electric ~soul~]

Number four - I just checked.

 

One place lower than Reach Up For The Sunrise, so not bad, mate.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Well I quite like that Arctic Monkeys single, it's a grower!

 

See what I mean about sounding like Sultans of Ping though!

 

The current music scene is very good, the best it's been for years, you Mr Soul, are just getting too old!

[Electric ~soul~]

I'm younger than you mate, so I find it unlikely that that's the reason.

 

Perhaps I just have a more delicate ear!

 

Saying that, I've just re-listened to the new SFA album, and it's very good.

 

Got some Joni Mitchell on now.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Yeah, but I'm still out and about and hanging with the kids <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

 

Let's face it, if you listen to most Britpop on merit it's pretty bland but it was a scene and you were part of it, there is a scene at the moment and you're not part of it hence your detatchment from it.

 

Mind you, we all know that the main catalyst of Britpop was Tony's New Britain <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Anyone heard:

 

In Search of Orgasmuz by Red Organ Serpent Sound ?

 

It's a right top tapping top tune! I think it's their first single? Hopefully there'll be more to come! Rock and fking roll!

[Electric ~soul~]

[****!!****].

 

Britpop's finest hour was early 1995 to mid 1996.

 

We were still under Johnny's rule at that time.

 

Name me one decent Britpop record made after May 1997.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I haven't but I like the name

 

I'm also giving more attention to bands that have the originality not to start their band name with 'The'

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Brought that Artic Monkeys single yesterday and have been playing it non-stop, I love it, it's ace!

On course to go straight in at number one on Sunday as well according to the paper!!!

 

A rather dum article in the NME last week said that they will be the biggest band ever on the strenth of them selling out the largest ever venue in London after releasing one limited edition single, a venue that is 4 times bigger than the equivalant gigs by the likes of The Beatles, Sex Pistols and Oasis!!!!

[Electric ~soul~]

What a ridiculous article, then.

 

It would be like saying that Van Gogh couldn't be considered as the greatest artist of all-time, because it took him a little while to get popular.

 

Do you really still read that comic?

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I stole it from WH Smith

 

I get more creditable music news from Smash Hits

[Electric ~soul~]

I get more creditable music news from Claire!!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Actually do you think she is still madly in love with Robbie even though she's now all sensible and grown up?

[Electric ~soul~]

I believe the reservation at the Abbey for 21st June 2008 has been cancelled, mate.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

You're joking?

I had the day booked off and everything!
