Scouting for Girls are the worst shit ever

I was shopping for lingerie for muh wuhmmun in debenhams last night. She got some nice stuff, and it was 1/2 price in the sale! SCORE. Pity we had to listen to this on the in-store TV thing:

it is seriously the worst record I have ever heard. Leaden playing that sounds like they got shit musicians and used protools to pull their performances into time, shit singing, shit lyrics. Shit, shit shit. Are all their lyrics dislikeable butthurt whining about not getting the girl, that makes you think the singer will be getting a restraining order for stalking in a few more weeks? GET ONE REALDOLL, LOSER. This is some awful rubbish. Fuck these people, they deserve pain.

Also, NO TUNE. I'd defy anyone so sing or whistle it.

It is whineable, possibly

Oh there are "Girl Scouts" btw.

better than the kooks and razorlight ,,, wat a band and savage tuneeEE!!

savage tunee?

tuna marketed as salmon maybe.

Did someone think there wasn't?

xpost now that's damning with faint praise

Savage tunee - was this a mishearing of Jimmy Tarbuck? "Oho, lovely tuney, I play it on my iPoddy when I'm on the green with Brucie, Lynchie, Dan Hipgravey and TV's Tim Vincenty, oho, Maggie etcy."

Amazingly, every single is shitter than the one that came before.

I like how this thread title is axiomatic.

Good tunes, played with a smile. What's not to like?

Is that a press release quote or have I got to start a BAN thread?

You've been listening to too much Radcliffe and Maconie (xpost).

You goota start a BAN thread.

I like the cheeky irrepressability of theswe scanmps.

good lord on the razz at 10.30 am

I've sounded more cheeky and irrepresible than these cunts on a wet Monday morning in February with a 3-day hangover.

Raw Challops

is yungblut NRQ?

Every single song is exactly the same yet still as someone has already said, shitter than the first and I cannot stand the pianists face. Plus the glamour model that appeared in that first vid must have fallen on hard times (joke somewhere) to be convinced that being in their vid would lead to more fame.

I hate everything I hear from this act.

And just when you think..

Every single song is exactly the same yet still as someone has already said, shitter than the previous

.. has to stop somewhere...

I Wish I Was James Bond

the high bits sung in the chorus just... fucking... drive... me... mad.

Date-Rape Indie at it's finest.

i don't even think there's much dating here

sounds feasible.. whats date rape indie?

This is a bit like hating on Coldplay or Phil Collins by now isn't it?

Kaiser Chiefs, SfG, anyone who stands up to play piano while wearing a pale Fred Perry.

Date-Rape Indie at it's finest.

Suggest their record company use this quote to promote their next release

No, far more stalker-pop.

I diarrhea'ed all over the Coldplay thread about them. I had no idea they were quite so bad. Honestly, I know that ILM will get it collective knickers in a twist over anything, but...

They're like a blander, more insipid, more mediocre version of Maroon 5 - and I didn't think that was possible!

Coldplay are better. Collins is a LOT better.

KC and SfG are way worse than Coldplay or PCollins.

That's Mick Talbot had it then (xxxxxp).

But nowhere near as bad as Elbow (xxp).

...and I'm not even going to get started on how the phrase "date rape indie" is possibly more offensive than the aesthetic content of their music. >:-(

Hey have you ever noticed Alanis Morrissette doesn't even know what irony is etc etc?

lol rape

I've just rung up the Daily Mail. 1000 words by AN Wilson in tomorrow's edition.

Well that's the suggest ban clicked about 49 more times, then.

whoa this thread took off since i last posted

i was merely wondering what it'd be like to actually date a Scouting For Girl

quit your daydreamin melon head

^lolled at this

Geir, have you been editing Wikipedia again? Also, can someone who knows more about music tell if those BPMs are right. They seem awfully fast.

She's So Lovely is pretty quick.

Not quick enough

I know I shouldn't laugh but...

'Anyone who stands up to play a piano wearing pale Fred Perry'
This makes me think of that film 'This Is England'. Y'know what I mean?
Anyway yeah they are pure shite but the worst thing ever is that someone keeps buying their records, I can almost comprehend why people are buying the Ting Tings (but only in a really abstract way) otherwise I don't get it. EVERY SINGLE SONG IS THE SAME.

Show your working.
