Nate Mendel's new solo album is called If 'I Kill This Thing We're All Going To Eat For A Week’, which is in keeping with the spirit of this thread I feel.

we reward the hake (NickB), Thursday, 5 March 2015 17:47 (nine years ago) link

i don't know what that title is asking exactly, but really NO

Throbbing Gristle should have ripped off that sleeve.

Paul Johnson asks: Do homosexuals like John Major (Tom D.), Thursday, 5 March 2015 17:50 (nine years ago) link

ha, that would've been perfect

Danny Kirwan looking like a castmember of The Inbetweeners there

Ha, indeed, perfect casting for a Fleetwood Mac or Peter Green biopic.

Paul Johnson asks: Do homosexuals like John Major (Tom D.), Friday, 6 March 2015 10:10 (nine years ago) link

I was gonna say Danny Kirwan looks like about eight people I know.

"Good'n'Cheap" is great.

Doctor Casino, Friday, 6 March 2015 13:26 (nine years ago) link

This is new but I think it belongs here

Why would you give you album such a critic bait-y title? The first thing I thought when I saw that was, "No, should I?"

That shit right there is precedented. (cryptosicko), Monday, 9 March 2015 01:40 (nine years ago) link

Danny Kirwan looks eerily like Andy Kaufmann in that cover.

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 9 March 2015 03:00 (nine years ago) link

I have no idea who Andy Pratt is

five six and (man alive), Monday, 9 March 2015 03:06 (nine years ago) link

You're missing out on some great stuff!! Check out his awesome '70s albums Andy Pratt s/t and Resolution

Lee626, Monday, 9 March 2015 03:50 (nine years ago) link

I have no idea what the 25 or so albums he's made since then sound like though. His previous album from last year was called The New Normal?

Budgie - Impeckable

soref, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 04:33 (nine years ago) link

'If I Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules' already mentioned a couple of times above, but I don't think we've had the cover yet

http://www.metal-archives.com/images/2/7/5/6/2756.jpg

soref, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 04:35 (nine years ago) link

probably worth mentioning that the first track on that album is called "Anne Neggen"

soref, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 04:37 (nine years ago) link

Budgie have a disappointingly small number of these album titles considering how many song titles they have that would have been perfect, 'Crash Course in Brain Surgery' probably my favourite

Someone HAD to have called an album this...

Hummingbird, "We Can't Go On Meeting Like This" (1975)

Walking Close to Melton Mowbray (Tom D.), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 17:37 (nine years ago) link

Saw this in Oxfam the other day and thought of this thread:

Tim, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 17:53 (nine years ago) link

jokes aside, i would have bought that record on the spot. how much were they asking for it?

we reward the hake (NickB), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:03 (nine years ago) link

Gary Johnson's response record, "Sure Ya Do, Gary Johnson...From Shop Class?" is also good.

five six and (man alive), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:05 (nine years ago) link

It was about £8 IIRC, might've been more... bad news is that they've closed that Oxfam (Strutton Ground) for a refurb.

Tim, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:07 (nine years ago) link

oof, that's a steal if it was in good nick. oh well!

we reward the hake (NickB), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:10 (nine years ago) link

Not like Oxfam to hand out bargains, grasping bastids

^More belongs in the "Yawnsomely literal" thread, IMO

kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 19:46 (nine years ago) link

yawnsomely literal with a gratuitous sexual twist

five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 19:57 (nine years ago) link

that could be a whole thread in itself

five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 19:57 (nine years ago) link

I did that Hummingbird album about 4 months back. Link's broken now though.

oh, no question about that! now imagining a chapman/cooper collaboration.

no lime tangier, Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:10 (nine years ago) link

saw him late last year, still plays amazingly

kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:11 (nine years ago) link

he does! his voice is kind of husk, though... not that it was ever a dulcet instrument.

he quipped with heat (amateurist), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:12 (nine years ago) link

kind of /a/ husk

he quipped with heat (amateurist), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:12 (nine years ago) link

another of his albums was recently reissued btw: http://lightintheattic.net/releases/1569-window

for some reason light in the attic seems to have trouble keeping the other ones in print, although maybe they were "limited editions" to begin with
