I like "The Walls Get Smaller"....or something like that.

 

[Edgeman]

If you can find it...pick up the live DVD. Amazing stuff on there.

My fav is New Instrumental....very cool stuff.

I can't wait for a new album.

[IWasBored]

i like. the band, that is. thanks cujo.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Yes, the DVD is one of the best directed live concerts that I've seen. Definitely something interesting even for the casual fans.

Adam Nutter's distortion is something to be envied.



oops... I see I called him Phil a few posts back. Tool am I.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Here's the latest news from NME on their upcoming album...

Thanks mofo

If you haven't checked out the DVD,

and it's spectacular.

 

[u2popmofo]

I still cannot find the album. I believe I'll have to order it or something.

Nice title.

I'm elated. So much so... look at my superfluous thumbs.

 

[u2popmofo]

I agree with that

Their album has grown on me immensely

....I know someone who bought their CD today.......

 

[Bonochick]

I love their first album. I'm looking forward to this next release!

 

[HeartlandGirl]

....I know someone who bought their CD today.......

Guilty as charged! I heard "Take the Long Road and Walk It" and "Getaway" and had to buy the whole album. I love the band, but I'm all about the lead singer's voice.

 

[DiGi]

I was going to listen to this album today as its been a while. I think its gonna get a spin in the car tomorrow.

 

[Justified]

I must see the gumby boy doing his mic grinding!

 

[Pinball Wizard]

I'm down with that action Justified.

Nice to see more interest.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

The first fledgling tour dates in the UK have been announced... hopefully a pre-cursor to a larger world tour.



Tour Dates in UK

 

[Bonochick]

I was driving behind a guy today who had a The Music sticker on his back window. I wanted to follow him and ask if I could have his babies.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Agreed. An excellent pedigree.

Who knows what would have happened if I had walked by in my Music jacket...

 

[Bonochick]

One word:

POUNCE!

 

[HeartlandGirl]

I listened to their album three times while on the road between here and Arizona. I am officially impressed. Favorite songs so far are Turn Out the Light, Getaway, Human, The Truth Is No Words, and Too High.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

It's amazing all the activity going on with The Music's website as of late. You'll have to indulge another post of mine...

They've released a one-minute video clip of Welcome To The North, and it's available on windows media player and real player.

Welcome To The North Video

If you liked the first album, I think you'll enjoy this new song. Not a huge departure, but a good riff with some interesting peripheral sounds.

 

[HeartlandGirl]

They're definitely good with the peripheral sounds.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Agreed. As well your favourites from the first album suit my fancy.



One day I'll have to make a mix of all their b-sides, for the world to share. Let Love Be The Healer, Jag Tune, and Dragon Song are excellent, but I'm not sure of their availability online. I recommend looking into it.

 

[Edgeman]

I can't wait for this new album already!

 

[u2popmofo]

Cuj, you get those B-sides to me. I'll get them to everyone else

The new one sounds good from what I've heard

I also listened to this album again this week. Truth Is No Words and Turn Out the Light were the 2 that stood out to me the most this time.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

I give something to you, and you spread it to the general population.

Old hat yes?

Let the burning begin...

 

[Justified]

*hump*

One week, The Music. The next week, Interpol. How will I cope?

The initial sour taste I had for The Music has now passed, still I consider them just ok. Im open to the new album changing my mind however.
