Yeah, I love that album.
I bought 'Power' but I don't really like it.
Check out Faraquet and the first Antelope release if you like Q and Not U, I reckons.
Power
Didn't like it at first, but it was loads better on repeat listening. For me though, Different Damage is the best.
Hmm. Well I should give that a try
But I wasn't sure after 'Power'.
power's
the weakest of the 3 for me, the earlier 2 are much better.
One of thems in Georgie james now, pretty different, but goo from what I've heard.
it was before power
and doesnt sound much like it at all
I realise that.
What I said was I wasn't sure "after Power", meaning after I heard Power, given they'd lost the member before 'Different Damage', hadn't they? I assumed the member going was why they lost some of the edge.
Power suffers
for opening with the 'poppiest' song they ever wrote.
I think they should be made to retroactively change their name
because I keep getting them confused with q without u
Don't start that again...
I will not rest until q without u change their name
your efforts thus far
have been noted and disgarded.........
I was gonna reply using
the fake profilename "Tam-Q" but sadly it sent my password to a nonexistant email address, would've been funny though
funny
if a bit sad :)
i always thought
that name was a well bad rip off of q and not u. i mean its basically the same name, its like me saying im gonna start a band and well be called you2 or linking park
I wholeheartedly endorse this thread
Power is shite
half of it sounds like ridiculous childrens theme tunes
No Kill No Beep Beep and Different Damage are awesome!
there is so much good stuff on Dischord
if you haven't already, check out:
Faraquet, The Evens, The Make-Up, Fugazi, Medications, Nation of Ulysses, Regulator Watts, Hoover, Rites of Spring, Embrace, Shudder to Think, Jawbox, Smart Went Crazy and Minor Threat
you're joking!
Power is an amazing album. it was my least favourite of the three before, but it's the most original album of the 3, completely eschewing post-hardcore to go for broke on the final album, it sounds like a party!
"it sounds like a party!"
A phrase guaranteed to put a sick in my mouth.
put a willy sick in your mouth?
mmm-mmmm
No, just bile and the like
Ugh!
Wonderful People
is a cracking tune on Power. Love it
they need to do an ATP
.
They split up ages ago...
I'm lucky
I borrowed the 20 years of Dischord comp today and had a great listen on headphones. Already had Power by Q and Not U by sounds like I'm going to have to check out their earlier stuff... a lot of post-hardcore and post-punk actually.... as much as I can!
i quite like Power
No Kill no Beep Beep is far better though
Anyone a fan of Ris Paul Ric?
Christopher Paul Richards' solo project? I really loved his debut album.
not heard that
what does it sound like?
it sounds
great!
like prince fronting a drummerless power era QANU, i suppose
Like...
Q And Not U's melody but really lo-fi, raw and tender. I love it. Quite blissful.
it sounds like he was working on a new q album
and everyone fucked off after he laid down his tracks. so he just put some atmospheric sounds in the background
except in a good way
now buy
Different Damage
I would
...but I am yet to actually see this in a CD shop. Should I do so I will purchase it. I bought No Kill when it appeared on the 66 list the other year as sounded like something I would like... and I did... a lot.
I've seen it in Sister Ray
does anyone like georgie james?
they're really cool, the Drummer John Davis' solo project? they were on conan o'brien the other week
I do
Yea I saw them play glasgow last month or something. I really like the album
no kill no beep beep
is actually, literally amazing.
yep.
With all seriousness
I think Q and not U are my favourite dischord band. Seriously, in terms of the sheer quality of everything they ever put out, they are pretty much unbeatable.
I agree
