Stone Roses - Stone Roses: C/D?

The drums are just foul. Can't believe that's Reni.

It's an intro track, that's what it sounds like.

Hey, come to think of it, are there any Reni backing vocals?

yeah, the drums are fucking terrible, although when i listened to a few live youtubes earlier he sounded shitty there too :(

the lyrics belong in a donald trump ad tbh

has any guitarist descended more completely and disappointingly from relatively tasteful playing to tedious LEAD GUITAR bollocks as john squire?

Should have broken into a "Mexico will pay" refrain instead of that shitty guitar noodling.xp

Can someone please, Please, PLEASE round up all of these old '90s indie relics and put 'em in a fucking retirement home or something, where they can sit around and reminisce about how they once used to be "mad fer it" and talk about their shoes for the rest of their fucking lives!?

(Yes, I know The Stone Roses came out in '89, but still...)

85

Oh wait you meant the album

Yeah, I meant the album... their mid '80s work doesn't feel like the same band to me.

this is horrible. and what is this an advertisement for the Trump campaign?

Trump pretty much owns the word 'wall' now

'Trump rally' was my first thought too. appalling music.

Lol yes the Roses are Trumplings of course, good work everybody excellent insights

don't let's be beastly to the gurners

I've heard this song one and a bit times and I seem to know it.

that's because it does pretty much the same thing all the way through. it really feels like half a song written as an unfinished demo. the drums are really really really bad.

Ummm ...

yeah zappi already pointed that out. some sort of subconscious steal? maybe the fall will become the new the beatles

Ah yes - should've checked the thread! I think it's a very conscious steal ...

all for one, one for all
if we all join hands, we can rip off the fall

NME are all over this

fookin shite doesn't even describe this.

People who think this is good; are they lying, deluded, or do they genuinely believe?

I'm going to have to listen to this aren't I?

it's worth listening to just to feel safely sure that it is shite. there is no confusion, it's almost satisfying. that was shite. one listen. then you're done.

It did seem i'd have to buy the d/l to hear it, then someone said it's on Spotify, so that's a quid (or whatever) saved.

Sounds like a demo. It's an outrageous rip off of that Fall song, and the Fall song wasn't any good either. Also I kept being reminded of the band Tomorrow, but as I am going to make strenuous efforts never to hear it again, I cannot investigate the comparison further.

In my mother's Irish accent this wondrous event could be described as "a turd coming".

:D

It's not THAT bad. It's just not that great either.

Turns out John did have *some* desire to desecrate that grave after all ...

also, the other thing I realized: the lyrics are bad, but when I think about them in context, as a commentary on the band itself and where they are in this moment in time, they make more sense-- especially as a lead single. still not good, mind you, but a bit more understandable.

his first solo album was called "Time Changes Everything", so perhaps not a complete shock.

this ain't no Beady Eye

what a fuckin turd

It's not THAT bad. It's just not that great either.

yeah pretty much. it's so harmless I dunno why everyone is falling over themselves to destroy it.

on the other hand. it kinda sucks.

I have no idea why people are falling over themselves to be disappointed by this inconsequential song from a band who have always quietly gone about their business with no attending hype or mythology

Aside from "I Wanna Be Adored", this band is some of the biggest bullshit

it is that bad.

I'm not disappointed, I fully expected it to be shit. If anything, I'm quietly pleased that it is.

Actually, they have never been the band that gave owt for nowt. If this had been a free download and a "We're Back" type thing, then fine. But I more or less remember them being barely in their own videos, "Love Spreads" was invested by din't of being issued with a large fanfare and nothing else, and as for "Spike Island" why not set up stall some place impossible to get to and charge how much?

None of those things on their own are bad, just..

Aside from "I Wanna Be Adored", this band is some of the biggest bullshit

I also like "She Bangs the Drum", "Waterfall" and "Fools Gold".

Just seen (by me, anyway), this is coming out on 7" and CD single. (1st July)

B-sides? It doesn't say, but I expect nowt.

xpost I do like those three, never fussed about "adored"
