"This Is Happening": the third album by LCD Soundsystem

will never understand salt & vinegar being in a blue packet.

what, salt & vinegar in a blue packet is the one that makes sense - why would you put cheese & onion in a blue packet

^^ ▀█▀ █▬█ █ ▄█▀

Salt & Vinegar is purple here. Cheese and onion is a mustardy colour. Chicken is green. Original is blue.

seems a bit early to get upset about a lyric without, you know, knowing the rest of the lines, but then perhaps james murphy is considered this generation's henry james in terms of his wry cultural politicking of the transatlantic divide so people have high expectations?

If ILX were a band it would be LCD Soundsystem, such is it's insane/playful/angst ridden/funny multiple layers of irony and detatchment.

I don't think anyone is, y'know, supposed to take that line at face value.

say what you like about the british isles, but we sure are easy to troll.

what are original crisps?

the blue ones afaik

potatos

Salt & vinegar = blue
Cheese & onion = green

Walkers are disgusting savages.

Good in Ireland but nearly always stale when they get to the UK.

Best used to be Quentin's Crisps.

do you think we can get a workable standard for chip packets drafted by the time this album leaks or what

Rule 1 - don't call them chips.

we call them crisps, and you do not - so shut up about chips

Obama's been in power for a whole year and he hasn't even fixed that one yet. No wonder people are already calling his presidency a failure.

hey guys you spelled potato wrong - it's not 'tayto'

po' dyao

don't be so po-faced

denial is a river in italy

corporate buzzchips

think you mean 'buzzcrisps' there

crispy buzzfishnchips

corporate buzzblackpresident

whoever our new prime minister is, i hope s/he has a bloggable skin colour

lolol

i saw a black crisp packet recently

SO THERE

I didn't see a black crisp packet

so I'll shut up

c&o in red = acceptable imo

c&o in mustard = can see the logic but somehow revolting

s&v in purple = bit forceful but ok -- worcestershire sauce is correct colour astringency however

chicken in green = ew wtf gross

i hate how all the action on ilm threads for big new releases happens well before the actual release

so true

or even the leak in this case

walkers black packet = lol tribute to american democracy BBQ RIB flavour fyi

chicken is really the problem one i feel, especially if you factor lime & cracked pepper in there

fall back jonathan crisp, no one is factoring in poncey flavour variations here

jonathan crisp talk belongs on the spoon thread

we have bbq potato chips and you do not - so shut up

My mistake earlier. He turns forty this year.

30th birthday = 30 lines of coke off a Roxy Music record.

40th birthday = ???

40 franz ferdinand songs in a row

40 beach chairs

40 packets of patriotic BBQ crisps

40 acres of land... ah fuck it

this is the year he buys a red miata convertable

Glad a crisp discussion has emerged...

no need to get chippy

Calling chips "crisps" is the first step toward socialism.
