JJ72 are ok. Inoffensive enough, October Swimmer was a reasonable effort. There's a lot more offensive bands out there, such as the Manics for example.
I do admit I don't mind a couple of Placebos tunes either. BM is a twat though.
I thought the DOves were a little over rated to be honest. It'll be interesting to see what their new albums like now they've got a bit of fame. That track they did with Barney; "This time I'm not wrong" was class though.
bruise pristine & nancy boy were fine singles. the jj72 album is ok in my book too. but then so is the doves lost souls.
I have the Doves album, but I haven't listened to it much since I got it. I realize that smacks of blasphemy after the turn this thread has taken, but I don't plan on parting with it anytime soon, if only for Catch The Sun ![]()
I have got to agree with Marco on this one.:DSaw them to at the R.Williams one, my god ,they were absolute crap!! Nice that they are JD fans , but imo that is no guarantee to make good music yourself
yes they are crap..and hypocrites aswell.slagged off u2 over and over in the papers but jumped at the chance to support them at slane castle.doves on the pther hand are pretty damn good.seen them live a few times.their singer played bass on the last electronic lp i think
Originally posted by Todd (Ben Sweeney) Yep, knew that about them being on Robsrecords (I think Sub Sub actually did a collaboration with Bernard too if I'm right in recalling!) I love "Lost Souls" as well - great record to put on when you feel sad- cos it's ultimately so uplifting to listen to.
"Man Who Told everything" "Catch The Sun" "Here It Comes" - what songs!
Todd,I can't believe it! A New Order fan and a Doves fan living within 20 miles of me! next time you're in Donny i'll buy you a pint mate.
has anyone heard this new band called "haven"? i heard that johnny marr was producing their debut album.barney did a song called "this time i'm not wrong" with sub sub a few years ago,its a good rocky tune
