Herman 9,838 Posted February 16, 2022 A hardcore punk, rock opera, in four acts. An ambitious 4 track epic that mixes many musical genres from classical, folk, hardcore, thrash and others that you will pick up. It's not an easy listen at first because so much is going on but after numerous listens in the car it starts to click. Act 3 is the most coherent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christoph Stiepermann 1,155 Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) Going through a post-punk/New Order style band phase at the moment as these 3 are great within that genre. If you're into New Order or The Cure give this a listen because it'll be right up your alley Edited February 22, 2022 by Christoph Stiepermann 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thumbbass 324 Posted February 23, 2022 For fans of Fugazi, Refused, At the drive in. Hoping to catch this lot - good local band (says London but actually from Norwich I think) https://eatyourownhead.com/track/bullets-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christoph Stiepermann 1,155 Posted February 28, 2022 In times such as these I find it comforting to go full goth and embrace nihilism, it's great for numbing your feelings etc etc. Reveling in misery soothes the soul 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 1,571 Posted March 11, 2022 Saw this band at Shiiine in November 2021 and they were the best out of all the bands there, including GlasVegas, Black Grape, The Coral, Feeder and Cast. Also saw them last month at the legendary Jacaranda in Liverpool. Remind me of Joy Division and Kasabian. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 5,541 Posted March 12, 2022 I was introduced to Walter Leigh as a result of discovering Ruth Gipps. He was arguably born the wrong time, signing up for the army in WW2 and dying in Tobruk in 1941, aged 36. Not one for the harpsichord especially but this piece never disappoints...1934. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KernowCanary 214 Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) The other half likes this certain band and has been obsessed with them since their debut album. I personally think they are sh*t and have been forced to listen to their forthcoming album, as a friend of her’s who works in music media managed to get an advance CDR copy of it. She loves it and I personally think it sucks, so have been forced at gunpoint to listen to that tripe all afternoon. Give me Porcupine Tree any day of the week over that Kerrang cr@p.

KernowCanary 214 Posted March 14, 2022 If you haven’t heard it already, give their album “Stupid Dream” a try. A friend of mine was before he heard that album, only liked certain songs and wasn’t too fussed by whole albums of their work. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
How I Wrote Elastic Man 1,198 Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) of all the shítty results at the weekend, by far the worst was my darling daughters narrowly failing to make it to Eurovision. They came through the semi final the week before, then the final of 5 competitors, but eventually lost in the super final They would have been a smash at Eurovision Ok, lyrics like "Fúck boys they keep me dry like an umbrella" and "She’s the virgin Mary, baby I’m the whóre" might have upset the Euro bigwigs, but we would have found a workaround Tökum af stað / Turn this around Edited March 14, 2022 by How I Wrote Elastic Man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
