And because I'm weird, my very first through to that was, "Why would you need to know where F is in the alphabet?" So I'm left to assume you're doing a fun word puzzle and now I'm jealous.

Oh no, it's much more mundane than that. I was adding a new album to my library by a band whose name begins with F. All of my artists are divided into alphabetical folders, so I was trying to find the F folder. I somehow managed to scroll down to S, then back up to about L, and I was all "where the fuck is F- oooh DUH AX".

 

[Axver]

Oh shit, I just remembered I haven't listened to that United Nations Of Sound album yet.

Well, time to download and find out whether it really is as bad as John thinks!

Now I'm sad .

While you're at it, you need to download Foals album, Travis is wanting you to listen to it with us later.

 

[Axver]

I listened to Foals! Pretty sure I even told you guys what I thought of it.

Right now I'm listening to a symphonic black metal album ... which is a concept album. Oh dear. It's a double dose of lameness, though it's executed well.

 

[bono_212]

You're going to break his heart

Edit: Nevermind, he's aware that you've heard it, so I have no idea why he wanted you to listen to it with us.

Edit to the edit: He says that he told me this last night. I think he's a liar.

 

[Axver]

Well if you want to give it another spin, I can join in. It hasn't really struck me, to be honest. Nice and all but I think 3.5/5 is fair.

And god, that black metal album just turned out to be too lame to be saved by the fact it's played and produced quite well. Some crappy cliched concept about a ghost ship. Ooh scary. Pirate black metalzz!

 

[Reggo]

Did you know the household serrated knife cuts through a Clorox wipes tub like butter? Also, fingers. Owie.

 

[Axver]

Right, Richard Ashcroft and the United Nations of Sound, your time has come. Just how bad and fundie are you? Good lord the track titles just about look like they're from a bad CCM album. Just look at some of them:

Born Again
This Thing Called Life
Beatitudes
How Deep Is Your Man
Royal Highness
Glory
Life Can Be So Beautiful
Let My Soul Rest

Is this a fucking Newsboys album or something?

Oh, I just haven't heard it yet, and it came up on the RNG. I think I might not listen to it tonight though because I'm suddenly feeling like I haven't given the Cure much attention this year and that that needs to be rectified.

Oh...wow.


Except for "How Deep Is Your Man" that's just a dirty joke waiting to happen.

Ah, righto. You're still doing better than me on the Cure front - I'm such a bad Cure fan that I STILL haven't heard the last album.

Except for "How Deep Is Your Man" that's just a dirty joke waiting to happen.

Haha true. Though it just makes me think of those CCM bands that try to sound hip with some reference like that, only for it to lead back to Jesus. Like in this case, I'm totally expecting "Jesus is so much more deep and inspiring than whatever man you're listening to!" Even moreso after Are You Ready, which is just pretty much all about how Ashcroft's now awaiting the Second Coming rather than smoking weed.

Now he's telling me that "Iiaaahh'm baaaahhhn aaagaaeeeennn".

 

[Axver]

Oh my god Ashcroft you can't fucking sing any more can you?

 

[Axver]

Oh in Tokyo
Oh in London town
Same pain
Same joy
Same sound

America, America
I'm lookin' for ya everywhere
Same pain
Same joy
Same sound

 

[Reggo]

How is it That 70's Show doesn't stop being funny no matter how many times you see a particular episode? I'm probably just easily entertained.

Eric: Any tricks to doing a pull-up?
Red: Yes. You pull...UP.

 

[Axver]

Koala plays cute, sleeps and leaves

Hahaha.

 

[Reggo]

I think I'll start my PRR adventure with Amor Vincit Omnia.

 

[Axver]

Hope you enjoy, Reggo.

Good god that Richard Ashcroft album was pretty bloody bad. There's worse out there, and a lot of the music itself is played well enough, but oh god the SONGS SUCK. The lyrics are an abomination. It's like some church band just removed all direct name-checks of Jesus, so they're awkward as hell.

I have an official length on the WhoScarf. 30 inches.

You listened to Hammer & Anvil yet?

 

[bono_man2002]

 

[Reggo]

I know, and it's only a quarter done! I've started scouting for a box large enough to house the scarf and eventually ship it in.

 

[Alisaura]

You listened to Hammer & Anvil yet?

Yes! I liked that also... I would have mentioned it just before but I couldn't remember if it was PRR or Agalloch or something else.

Whose is that Dark Third album?

 

[Alisaura]

Hey Daniel How's Shepp today?

 

[Reggo]

I need to listen to it again without my mother pestering me about Facebook all the way through it.

 

[Alisaura]

I still think you should tie one end of it to an albatross or something, and point it Australiawards...

 

[bono_man2002]

Hey Daniel How's Shepp today?

About to be invaded by a storm I think. Perhaps not. But the wind sure as hell just picked up.

Hows Melb? or more importantly, how's yourself?

 

[bono_212]

I'm back, sorta drunk, and ready for The Cure.

Shall I stick all of their albums in RNG and pick that way, or just listen to Seventeen Seconds
