Let's face it they were pretty bad live when they were around before, luckily having seen them on the Rollercoaster tour as a dizz…
Haven't we all? Is it ok to only like 9 out of ten songs on In Rainbows? Is is also fair to surmise that we no longer need music j…
so I won't bore people to death on the social board I just wanted to put a few things about recently defunct band the faculty down into blog type word box thingys - we were a band for just over 4 years and got 'together' through an ad in NME which I pl…
6 years into the 21st Century and we live totally differently to how we did in 1999 - I dont mean because we have an i-pod or we can appear on Big Brother frottaging some cadavar from Hainault by the way - I mean in terms of desensitivity and acceptanc…
Surely as one gets older the crasser this day becomes? After school it was almost de riguer to weep silently into your pillow as the smell of Crispy Pancakes enamated under the door to rouse you begrudgingly from the annual non appearence of a valentin…
I really dislike fashion in music - I dont mean we should all dress like Hefner fans in a Hall of Mirrors but since bloody Elvis we have been slave to 'image' and it can get quite depressing. However I feel sorry though for the 'faces' and their subseq…

I'm not bitter I'm just opinionated - i'm inspired by people who made me laugh by diplaying the absurdity in pompous, self rightous people - I see a lot of this in bands of the day and I feel like reporting my own take upon it - if I have offended anyone …
It was 1992, it was sunny all year obviously and I was about to start college. i went to see a band called Sheep on Drugs at the Thekla n the Monday and saw the Senseless Things the day after as a 'taster' of wall to wall live music. By Wednesday I was fl…
Tricky subject this as I'll get accsued of being 'bitter' but then again who wants to get paid 6p a word to write about a My Vitriol re-issue? OK you get to sell the promo - but you have to find a buyer first. Some writers on DiS for example have seemi…
I really loathe the the way bands are treated on the London gig curcuit - even though 'pay to play' has been abolished the "minimum 20 people or your first born must die" policy is no different. dont promotors know that some bands may not actuially hav…
