Oh yeah, Ommwave! Mystery Jets are exactly the sort of shite that the Music Doctor would recommend to Pol Pot.

ka£ka (NickB), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 09:40 (fifteen years ago)

nah but possibly worse than all of these.

Samuel (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 09:40 (fifteen years ago)

We're negatively comparing them to good rock bands, Geir, not Nelly.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:22 (fifteen years ago)

Surely one of these abysmal chancers has done a cover of Hot In Herre though.

Speaking of which, there aren't enough cover versions on this thread. Opening gambit:

I saw the Mystery Jets live once and they were very mediocre, but this one with Laura Marling is quite cute:

omfg zane lowe rapping. possibly the most cringe inducing thing on the whole thread.

Samuel (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:37 (fifteen years ago)

in the interests of fairness I've got to point out that I'm SBing every fucker that comes in here defending one of these.

Except Geir, obv, cos he's a prince.

Fuck that one is terrible

ka£ka (NickB), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:42 (fifteen years ago)

It was terrible when Sting done it, what chance have those cunts got?

Nulty By Nature (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:43 (fifteen years ago)

You haven't pressed play yet have you?

ka£ka (NickB), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:45 (fifteen years ago)

i might be depressed but i'm not suicidal

Nulty By Nature (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:46 (fifteen years ago)

Can't see the YT embeds, but The Automatic's cover of "Gold Digger" should not be forgotten.

Fucking hell

DL, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:57 (fifteen years ago)

The words "high quality" have no place on that clip.

DL, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:58 (fifteen years ago)

the vocals on that are sooooooooooooo crap

fuck you jan stepek you kurwa (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:01 (fifteen years ago)

There's no way back from that. They'd have had more chance if they'd been caught kiddy-fiddling.

i had erased this from my mind ;_;

re: razorlight/sting, as tom ewing wrote at the time: Pop scientists have searched long and heard for an individual less vocally and spiritually capable of singing reggae than Sting and finally he has appeared: well done all concerned.

lex pretend, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:13 (fifteen years ago)

Poor Rastalight. Such tragic lack of self-awareness.

Nulty By Nature (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:25 (fifteen years ago)

fucking hell that automatic "gold digger" cover is OFF THE DEEP END. the rapping oh god please make it stop

lex pretend, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:26 (fifteen years ago)

lex pretend, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:27 (fifteen years ago)

OH GOD THE SECOND VERSE IT GETS WORSE WHAT IS THIS YELPING HE IS DOING

lex pretend, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:27 (fifteen years ago)

Bowen, who runs Probation Management, was released on bail on the condition he resides at his home address, reports to Rumney police station twice a week and has no contact with anyone under the age of 18 unless it is supervised by an adult aged over 18.

The Automatic, who were formed in Cowbridge, are best known for their hit song Monster.

"Probation Management"

"Monster"

Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:56 (fifteen years ago)

had to go Fratellis in the end, paying strict attention to the criteria they are surely the ultimate landfill indie band.

Neil S, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:57 (fifteen years ago)

The Automatic (also known as The Automatic Automatic in the U.S.)
