the machinist 969 8
Started by sweetie
Anyone seen this film yet I really enjoyed it although it did have a
touch of the M. Night Shymalayans about it. Christian Bale turns in a
fine performance and it's great to see Jennifer Jason Leigh in a
big(ish) movie again. Recommend.

Running Out Of Revivals 3793 35
Started by Norman Schwarzkopf
I remember reading an article in the mid-90s about cyclical trends and how it takes roughly 20 years for things to come back around again. It applied to Britpop at the time in the early 90s. I looked ahead and figured that the Eighties would come back in the early part of the current decade and wondered why in hell anyone would want to revive it. (I was unaware at the time of some of the great stuff from the Eighties.)
Now I'm wondering if the Nineties are next. What could bands revive from t...

the killers Vs the bravery 1268 12
Started by emu
I dont paticularly like either but i had to pay attention when the lead singer of the killers started saying that the bravery where only signed because of them and are just a rip off . I think in that case the killers are just a rip off of hot hot heat what do you think . there are similarities with the synthsizers and all ( someone tell me how to spell that). Singing is also kind of similar

Franz and Pixies 1250 12
Started by Una
The Pixies and Franz Ferdinand look set to play headline dates at Dublin's Lansdowne Road this summer
Although there’s no official confirmation yet, the word on the industry grapevine is that the Pixies and Franz Ferdinand are to play separate Lansdowne Road headliners between August 19 and 24.
Both bands will be in gig mode then, with the Americans warming up for Reading (25) with a series of smaller European festival dates, and Franz playing the Chelmsford and Staffordshire V Festivals ...

The O.C. Soundtrack 1467 19
Started by Gar
I've seen a couple episodes of the show and not really into it. But looking at the tracklisting of the soundtracks for the show reveals some really great bands. I didn't buy any of the cd's and felt a bit embrassed to be even handling something with the O.C. stamp on it. Does anybody have one of the soundtracks or are thinking of getting one Are the compilations just a guilty pleasure or a chance for people to discover bands who wouldn't normally recieve mainstream attention And does the credi...

IRMA, file-sharing and the law 2151 20
Started by Pilchard
Has anyone been following this and have any views
In a nutshell, IRMA, the Irish record companies lobby group, announced yesterday they intend to prosecute 17 Irish file-sharers for illegally uploading a couple of thousand tracks
There was loads of coverage on radio and TV news and in the usual online and print sources.
It all seemed a bit one-sided to me - all taking IRMA's press releases and slant at face-value with only one or two dissenting voices
Just interested in hearing th...

Nina Simone remixed by the Postal Service 1038 0
Started by stroller
Since there seems to be so many Postal Service fans on this site I tought you might be interested to an MP3 sample of their remix of Little Girl Blue from the new Verve Remixed 3 LP. Just click on this link
http://www.juno.co.uk/products/174775-01.htm
It looks like an interesting album. Although as with he previous two in the series there's a lot of filler. I quite like the contributions from RSL, Danger Mouse and the Album Leaf.
