this odyssey that refuses to quit calling itself (history mayne), Wednesday, 2 March 2011 12:48 (fifteen years ago)

Don't know which one to not watch first.

ka£ka (NickB), Wednesday, 2 March 2011 12:57 (fifteen years ago)

I'm going to not watch all of them one after the other all afternoon.

a murder rap to keep ya dancin, with a crime record like Keith Chegwin (snoball), Wednesday, 2 March 2011 12:59 (fifteen years ago)

Had a lot of time for The Divine Comedy back in the day, Liberation and Promenade were both fine records with the Nymanisms tempered by some great popwise hooks. He started to go all foppish with Casanova and a couple of good later ones (A Short Album About Love, Regeneration) notwithstanding, it was downhill fast from then on.

Another forgotten one: Molly Half Head. So forgotten that they don't even appear to have a Wikipedia article or a mention in any!? I actually have an (the?) album, all I remember for sure is it's a digipak with a Paul Klee painting on the front.

Lol at "Bardsley is fond of pronouncing almost all of his consonants as z's".

Wel, it was working before: Try this one instead.

Mark G, Wednesday, 2 March 2011 15:09 (fifteen years ago)

I like the odd Molly Half Head song, Barny is a great track. Think they had two albums, 'Sulk' and 'Dunce'. Only heard the first, which is patchy but some great moments there.

That Midway Still indie blog is great, shame he's abandoned it.

Subcircus? I saw them at Reading '97, though all I can really remember about it was some drunk horny girl in the crowd standing almost bent double, grinding her arse into her bf's crotch. Distracting. Anyway, Subcircus. Eddie Izzard was a fan iirc.

DG is desperate for kenickie votes to excise the ghost of old ilx

ha

i hadn't thought of it that way but i can see it, def.....

nakhchivan, Wednesday, 2 March 2011 22:23 (fifteen years ago)

voting Hurricane #1 cos they were fucking horrible and (at the time) I thought Andy Bell knew better. I had loved him so...... but really also because the dad rock contingent of this lot are the worst - H#1 pretty fairly represent that.

kraudive, Wednesday, 2 March 2011 22:27 (fifteen years ago)

you cant, it manifests itself like in whistle and i'll come to you xp

well more like play missy elliott and i'll come to you

Romford Spring (DG), Wednesday, 2 March 2011 22:29 (fifteen years ago)

Hurricane #1 deserve at least a few votes for the lyrics
"Only the strongest will survive, these days you gotta kill yourself just to stay alive"

Vive Le Rock being the name of the terrible song that Adam Ant did at Live Aid iirc.

Oh what jokers.

kraudive, Thursday, 3 March 2011 00:16 (fifteen years ago)

dunno, there was a few anti-kenickie posts, looked serious to me. still shocked though that space & sleeper finished so low.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 3 March 2011 00:19 (fifteen years ago)

28 votes for bands w/women vs 43 for bloke bands?

Romford Spring (DG), Thursday, 3 March 2011 00:25 (fifteen years ago)

Yeah, people really do think Kenickie were a worse band than Symposium and Nowaysis.
