The first album was a year of my life, but I lost interest, as so often, after the second one proved to be not quite as good. (In fact a bit duff...). Beginning to wonder if i should hear some of their more recent stuff, but maybe I'll put on the old tapes when I get home, and sit and shiver (puny central heating, large bedroom) along to them. Phenomenal live, when I saw them just after the first LP, but then I was absolutely trolleyed, if that's the word I'm looking for, since none of my hipster friends were willing to go, so I got pissed first on green banana vodka. Still no idea what the wretched stuff was made off.

By the way, what's this Mark Radcliffe, MArk Radcliffe show stuff--is this a Lard diss, or is Robin trying to suggest that they've gone rubbish since they sold out and went to commercial broadcast hours when five million people might get to listen to their show and enjoy them. ;-)

i try to keep my headphones fastened to my head for at least 6 out of the 7 hours i'm working; then when i get home i usually listen to music for 2 or 3 hours in the evening, with breaks for reruns of the simpsons.

personally i've been trying to slow down my record buying, just due to the fact that i do have a stack of CDs i've only listened to one or two times - but lately i've been developing better habits about listening to things, trying not to get too obsessive over albums so i don't burn out on them and exclude other things that might be just as appealing but take longer to get into. don't want to let the new missy elliott overshadow avey tare, panda bear & geologist or bladder flask, after all.

Dance-hall. Lately though I've been overhearing some stuff that sounds kind of interesting. Also, some of the Latin nights I go to play some dance-hall (is this term even used any more?) with Spanish lyrics, or something of that sort, and it's okay. There's some genre called reggaeton, but I'm not sure what that is.

Weird, I thought "would smash" was a Brit construction...

That's probably because Dom did the most to popularize it on here, but it doesn't originate with him.

The Last Laugh wrote this on thread Killing Joke - Classic Or Dud, Search And Destroy on board I Love Music on 21-Mar-2001

as a member of the kj mailing list that has invaded this board i think it's interesting to hear people attack the band coz we're all so used to agreeing with each other on how awesome they are etc. and it's good to have to defend them for once. firstly, i'd say kj are an innovative, highly influential band with a varied output, always exploring new musical territories and certainly worth checking out. the music is not to everyone's taste, a bit serious for some people, perhaps. a bit silly for others. that's cool. geordie is one of the most accomplished guitarists on the planet and has a unique style that i personally find very compelling. jaz coleman is a talented loon. i think by and large they appeal to sensitive introspective types more than metal-heads. phrases like 'honour the fire' etc are just a bit of fun not to be taken seriously and there's certainly more to them than your average metal band. at least jaz explores a wide range of ideas and his lyrics can be insightful sometimes but also very cheesy too. anyway, here comes the plug: if you'd like to find out more about killing joke check out my website: "http://www.the-last-laugh.com";. there are loads of mp3s and videos and articles so at least you'll be able to make a balanced decision.

"What are you listening to? etc etc"

joanna newsom.

she makes total honest-to-god fairy music, just singing and playing harp. she's from s.f. and devendra banhart told me to listen to her, uhhhh, so i did. it's totally elfin, totally twee, and it rules in a bjork-meets-jolie-holland-ish way.

most people i know would absolutely hate her music, that's why i just stuck it on the end of one of my "best of 2003" mixes!

bolding mine. so has that always just been an australian expression??

should maybe cross-post to "community" thread, but that takes work

Yeah it's a British expression.

Bad pun alert:
Either Pennsylvania or New Jersey -- I think the latter -- organizes itself into "townships", abbreviation "twp", and on the highway each of them gets a sign -- "Twp of Gloucester", "Twp of West Fleurville", and so on. Surely there must be a joke somewhere about the Welshman who comes to NJ and asks "Twp, twp, twp -- so where might one find the Call of West Fleurville, then?"

(Och, that was ofnadwy.)

Question 2- passed at a 3 to 1 margin!! to eliminate bilingual education-"Children who do not speak English will have to learn quickly." Thanks Ron "English For The Children,haha I'm laughing all the way to the bank" Unz.

Question 3- Clean Elections- How bout a clean expalnation!! Yesterday, voters overwhelmingly expressed their opposition to using tax dollars to fund elections. The question was set up by supporters for a "no" vote, and was prohibited from having the usual explanations to voters on the printed ballot.
Four years ago, voters decided by a 2-1 margin to set up the system where candidates can use tax dollars to run for office.*sway,sway* Pepsi can pay for my next campaign.

One of those is real (and technically not the first mention--he had been included in three Billboard charts previously posted).

Back-to-back posts, seven minutes apart, so maybe call this one a tie:

I heard about that. It's almost as depressing a thought as LeBron James' school broadcasting his games on Pay-Per-View.

Lou Reed, Take No Prisoners. (Lou Reed's own website is delicious in that it praises ALL of his decidedly uneven output, even hailing "Disco Mystic" as a sharp bite of satire)

In general though, I think this is just a variant of the "I liked the earlier stuff better" syndrome -- or maybe the other way 'round.

There are also those, like me, who claim that Costello's Trust is better than This Year's Model, which is fairly scooby, I think.

I just found that last spasm of violence in WM weird and out of nowhere; also the son character was kind of 'let's throw in some absurdist King Lear/Conrad' stuff.

just to say that spasm of violence was there at the very beginning of the film. also way more fascinating re: colonialism than "exotic africa" etc...

Anyway, actually here to post Brody's list

1. “Shutter Island” (Martin Scorsese)
2. “The Social Network” (David Fincher)
3. “Somewhere” (Sofia Coppola)
4. “Greenberg” (Noah Baumbach)
5. "Black Swan" (Darren Aronofsky)
6. “Around a Small Mountain” (Jacques Rivette)
7. “Daddy Longlegs” (Josh Safdie and Benny Safdie)
8. “The Strange Case of Angelica” (Manoel de Oliveira)
9. “Tiny Furniture” (Lena Dunham)
10. “Our Beloved Month of August” (Miguel Gomes)
11. “Ne Change Rien” (Pedro Costa)
12. “The Father of My Children” (Mia Hansen-Løve)
13. “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger” (Woody Allen)
14. “Hereafter” (Clint Eastwood)
15. “The Portuguese Nun” (Eugène Green)
16. “The Army of Crime” (Robert Guédiguian)
17. “Outside the Law” (Rachid Bouchareb)
18. “Audrey the Trainwreck” (Frank V. Ross)
19. “Boxing Gym” (Frederick Wiseman)
20. “Catfish” (Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman)
21. “Cyrus” (Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass)
22. “Open Five” (Kentucker Audley)
23. “Get Him to the Greek” (Nicholas Stoller)
24. “Spring Fever” (Lou Ye)
25. “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” (Edgar Wright)

I'd actually agree with a number of those, despite the fact that Brody annoys the living crap out of me most of the time.

Her debut feature beat her by over 6 months:

if we're talking docs, i could name at least ten

if we're talking fiction, i haven't seen but have heard great things about COLD WEATHER, BLUE VALENTINE, WINTER'S BONE, TINY FURNITURE and PUTTY HILL.

the next super group is going to be the perfect mix of rap, rock and party good times.
and the next band i think is going to be moderatly big is this group out of montreal called "arcade fire" easily lovable, lyrics are at least never embarassing (some might even say sincere) decent songwriting and excellent instrumentation. they'll be huge with the college set.

Stayed up to watch the Whole Match re-screened from 1am last night, with no idea of the result. Tyldesley and Pleat. Reading about naked teenagers in American cemeteries during duller passages of play.
Amazed when Heskey's goal went in. Fell asleep till Clive T's noise woke me up again minutes from the final whistle. Houllier and Thompson hugging at the end. Flames on the Kop.

Consider that very recently, Liverpool seemed to have NO CHANCE of getting to the QFs. Fantastic achievement, forceful performance, extraordinary turnaround, vs a very dangerous team. An occasion for Pool fans to be really proud.

Big congratulations to Liverpool's players, management and supporters (not least on ILx).
