Right then - NME training: describe a band using wildly stupid analogies involving other bands!
so 2 examples....
Shining - Mogwai and James Chance rent a Kubrick video
Thunderbirds are Now! - Les Savy Fav being raped by evil keyboards
and so on - make em interesting!

Not bad. How about "defecating on" instead.

The Fiery Furnaces
Oh shit, my review is due...and I haven't listened to the album yet (that new Kea"ihatefuckingkeane"ne stuff is AMAZING!).The cover looks too complicated for me, oh fuck! Maybe I should just make a guess....ummmm 1/10, yeah that seems about right, I don't like the sound of any of these track names so that seems fair. Now, back to my colouring-in book must......keep......inside.....the.......lines

I still say that Fiery Furnaces review is the only thing they've really got spot on in the last year or so  |

Like seventeen turds baked in a pie: The wanky Killers.  (Damn, all this energy expelled on a 'band a are better than band b' style argument. I'm like a dog with a bone. Or a cat on the phone. I just have to moan. And groan. Better try and let it go... maybe I need a music-hate therapist or something. But I think I hate The Killers more than your average rubbish indie band because they are so shockingly vapid and yet seem to have slipped under people's shit-ness radar because of a lacklustre-pop shield or something. grr not working) |
