  1. good album

    beautiful future

    cant go back

    uptown

    glory of love

    over & over

    great tunes.

    How would you rank their albums? amazingly diverse band. Their self titled album is one of my favourite good time rock n roll albums. The scream are without a doubt one of the most sonically inventive and innovative bands of all time, Screamadelica, Vanishing Point, Xtrmntr and Evil Heat are must have albums IMO, Thats not to say their other albums are rubbish, loads of good tunes.

    like this one :)

    Here's an amazing performance of Swastika Eyes

    1. Xtrmntr

    2. Screamadelica

    3. Vanishing Point

    4. Evil Heat

    5. Beautiful Future

    5. Primal Scream

    6. Give Out But Dont Give Up

    7. Riot City Blues

    8. Sonic Flower Groove

  2. Kanye West: "New Oasis video breaks my heart"

    http://www.nme.com/news/kanye-west/42583

    He's a fan of the video for 'Falling Down'

    Kanye West has blogged about Oasis' video for new single 'Falling Down'.

    The rapper posted a link to the video, which you can watch below, on his official blog under the title "Sometimes I see videos and it breaks my heart that there are so few outlets for vids these days..."

    The video mocks the British monarchy, and features a member of the royal family indulging in drug binges and one-night stands.

  3. I think it gets overlooked because it hasnt really got a chorus to it.

    the verses are amazing though, its fine lyrically too, especially when you hear noel gallagher saying his songs dont mean anything.

  4. Nirvana dont have an album as good as Definitely Maybe or Morning Glory.

    Both great bands though.

    Definitely Maybe

    Morning Glory

    Be Here Now

    The Masterplan (I'll include this as it includes all the their great B-Sides, from the above 3)

    >

    Bleach

    Nevermind

    In Utero

  5. by far their most underrated song of all time.

    I hitched a ride with my soul

    By the side of the road

    Just as the sky turned black

    I took a walk with my fame

    Down memory lane

    I never did find my way back

    You know that I gotta say time's slipping away

    And what will it hold for me

    What am I gonna do while I'm looking at you

    You're standing ignoring me

    The first thing I saw

    As I walked through the door

    Was a sign on the wall that read

    It said you might never know

    That I want you to know

    What is written inside of your head

    And time as it stands

    Won't be held in my hands

    Or living inside of my skin

    And as you fell from the sky

    I asked myself why

    Can I never let anyone in ?

  6. lol.

    From Noel Gallagher's official Tour Diary on oasisinet.com

    Urgh! My head hurts today. Had a bit of a smash-up last night.

    Where? But an Irish bar of course. Me and Cool Prophet were the last ones left at it - again! So I got left with the bar bill - which I've just found in my pocket. It reads as follows:

    29 pints of Guinness

    16 pints of Strongbow

    6 pints of Jupiler (whatever the fuck that is!)

    4 pints of Heineken

    3 Gordon's gin

    5 Sauza Tequila

    12 Bacardis

    11 Vodka Stolis

    14 Jameson whiskey

    10 Bushmills Malt

    16 bottles of Coke

    7 bottles of tonic

    4 7-Up

    ...and this is the killer: 1 glass of Port and a packet of Cheese and Onion crisps!!??

    All came to a colossal €708.40. Bargain.

    In a bit.

    GD.

  7. It's been the same setlist for the whole tour <_< bar the first night in Liverpool, where they added in My Big Mouth, and the gig before the one Username went to, where they replaced Importance Of Being Idle with Half The World Away, as Noel had a sore throat.

    Keep checking Noel's blog, it's very funny. He recommends a Compilation CD called 'A Monstrous Psychadelic Bubble', I D/Led it, it's fantastic! Proper good stuff :D

    it's good u should make a thread about it, huge album.

  8. Basically one of the best lead vocalists of this decade, whose band "The Cooper Temple Clause" split up in 2007 isnt doing much, infact I've heard he's a fuckin electrician now.

    VR should contact him.

  9. Jagger has always transcended any of these terms we use. He's a highly sexualized person, especially in his art, and he absorbs characteristics of both sexes as well as both gay and heterosexual cultures. I mean, look at "When the Whip Comes Down", he's never obscured anything about where his fascinations may lie.

    I dont think they're his fascinations though, I think they are other peoples fascinations. The Stones were great at painting pictures in their songs.

    there are only a few stone songs that sound as though jagger/keith are writing from personal experiences.

    I tend to believe that people write songs about things that interest them. And although you make somewhat of a good point, something like "Brown Sugar" may not relate to firsthand experience, it does relate to an interest in sexual taboos having to do with interracial sex and enslavement. The songs we hear are the songs they want us to hear, for whatever reason, they aren't accidental. In this particular case, it may only be the Stones hoping to shock us or to prove something. If Mick Jagger wasn't remotely interested in any of this, it wouldn't be in a song though. "Fascination" becomes difficult to define here, but I think you can be fascinated with something like pedophilia, or hard drug use, without partaking. Look at what's on our televisions! Dr. Drew and sexual predator catching shows all day! This doesn't mean that pedophiles and wanna-be junkies are watching the T.V., it just means that something about these issues interest them. Fascination can be less involved.

    But even at that, you don't think the myriad songs on drugs, the road, rock and roll, and women problems don't come from something close to real life for them?

    oh yeah sure definitely, I would say a lot of them are close to real life, I was talking more about songs like when the whip comes down, dancing with mr d, heartbreaker, paint it black, hand of fate etc etc, excellent story telling imo, those songs are pure satire for me.

    having said that, after exile they were out there to shock, the lyrics were definitely over the top, and at times pompous, although I love over the top stones, just listen to undercover for example.

    alot of their material after exile was about sickness, violence and kinky sex, and most of it IMO was the stones cooking up a world on paper or in their minds, and then living in it through their records, they were fucking great at that, it's what makes them unique, im saying a lot of their tunes are based around that kind of concept as opposed to the traditional form of nonsensical or meaningful lyrics based on personal experiences.

    I might not be making much sense, as im in a rush and I've got to go!
