Putting the needle back on to the turntable for the fourth consecutive time, ‘Burn Faster’, the first track from Nine Black Alps’ second album, is still (in)distinctly unmemorable.
A mere slip of a song, ‘Burn Faster’ is both anaemic and hookless; an uneasy amalgam of indie rock and the post-grunge kafuffle they were lamented or lauded for in the first place, depending on which side of the rock fence you sat on.
By the time the middle eight / outro grinds in, there seems so very little point, and still, there’s nothing to remember…
omg
but this review is really short. YOU CALL THIS JOURNALISM!>??!?!
Lack of progression
from their debut.
DiS?
I thought i was ready a shitty london freebie paper.
edit
*reading.
BAN THIS SICK FILTH
That is a very short review
It tells us nothing.
I've only heard the song once, a week ago, and it's still rattling around my head.
Thought it got what deserved
an average review for a very average song.
forgettable review
and the songs not even that bad, worthy of maybe a 6 in my opinion. nothing particularly special but pleasant enough.
First they were shit Nirvana
and now they're shit Foo Fighters.
I guess that's progress.
shit review. i'm sure he had much more to say about latest klaxons b side.
fuck indie - elitism. nine black alps is a good band.
Look...
..I know this review is shit. I'm sorry. But you try writing about this sorry tat.
Hmm.
I can't help but like this song. I probably shouldnt. But I DOOOOOOO!
Too much like Nirvana
I thought everyone grew out of grunge when they got to 12 and started big school?
Something like that
Nirv (12-15yrs)
Zeppelin (15-17yrs)
Punk Rock(17-21yr)
Indie crap bands nobody will remember a year from now (21-life)
RstJ
saw them last night
and they were mighty good.
This song
is worthy of a lot more than a 5. It's insanely catchy. 9BA are a really good band, they're incredibly underrated. Certainly better than all that Jack Penate and Kate Nash wank.
BYE BYE NINE BLACK BORINGS
No-one cares any more.
