Have been listening to the new Low cd "Drums and Guns", pretty good but not as good as previous efforts, it's their sort of political/anti-Iraq war cd.
Trying to track-down the new posthumous Elliot Smith 2 disc set "New Moon", hope it's better than Jeff Buckley's posthumous cd.
Have bought but yet to listen to Bill Callahan's (aka Smog) new one "Woke on a whale heart".
but really can't wait for the new Queens of the Stone age, which is supposed to come out next month.
check out tomorrows The Premiership - my brothers band (SuperJimenez) have been asked if they can use their new single Faye for the season highlights at the end... Check it out and see what you think.
Manic Street Preachers - Send Away The Tigers....
It will occupy your week, believe me!
What a song...Quote:

A great site in general, if you're into that sort of thing.
Plenty of free legal downloads on there.

ha, took them long enough. they were VERY reluctant to talk about it on the dvd i watched of them. at the time i put it down to them being from utah (mormon state) where bush still enjoys his most popular support. perhaps they didn't want to pi$$ off their local fans at the time.. not sure.Quote:

Ken, Low are more or less a Minnesota band, one of the most progressive states in the U.S., and as far as I know, Alan sparhawk is the only Mormon in the band, Mimi, his wife might be too, which doesnt' mean they're pro-Bush.(They might just be nominally Mormon)....I can't imagine many Low fans being for the war in Iraq or pro-Bush....you'll be heartened to know that students came out in good numbers last month at Brigham Young University( of all places) to protest Dick Cheney being announced as the graduation commencement speaker,(because of his pro-war stance)Quote:

What's that Herbaliser mix CD like then Jebus? The whole series goes from the pretty good to the fantastic I think, how does that one match up to the the best of them (Adam Freeland, Scratch Perverts, Jacques lu Cont if you've got those)?
Edit: as I can't now edit my previous one, should have said cheers for the C86 link to noby, not BP!
Don't have the Freeland or luCont mixes, but I'd put the Herbaliser's one up there with the Scratch Perverts, thats how good it is. Only two dodgyish tracks on it, and even they aren't too bad, so it's well worth the purchase. I picked mine from HMV for 10 euro a while back so they might still be floating around for that priceQuote:
