Except, of course, it’s hard not to suspect who the cause of the legal problems might be….

 +2Posted on Feb 6th | re: Watch The Trailer For HBO's Phil Spector, Starring Al Pacino (5 comments)

I imagine the sheer difficulties involved in casting a band as dull as Starsailor explains why they are avoiding depicting his last production work…

Has anybody else seen this: http://www.tinnitus.org.uk/taw2013

Coincidence or is Kevin Shields just trolling British Tinnitus Association by putting this out this week?

 +5Posted on Jan 8th | re: Tom Waits & Keith Richards - "Shenandoah" (18 comments)

a day which also remarkably appears to coincide with day of boring narrow minded kids making ageist comments like “old fart” to dismiss anyone who doesn’t fit in with their idea of what music should be on gum… also… GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

I take it when Dave offered to sing Paul just said “Get back to where you once belonged”. I’ll get my coat…

So I guess we’re just going to ignore J Tillman’s first 7 albums?

Seriously folks, there’s still a month left!!! Any one of these people could have a sudden December boost. How can this list possibly be considered in anyway accurate?

Jherek Bischoff – Composed…. not that anybody else seems to have listened to it…

HEY HOLD ON A SECOND ON THAT BEST ALBUM DECISION PEOPLE!!! Remember the year isn’t over until Kevin Shields says it is….

So is that artwork designed to dupe fans of death metal christmas songs?

Radiohead, Soundgarden, Pavement… I suspect tomorrow’s acoustic set is will reveal that this start up is just an excuse for Billy to add coffee to his hate rant list

WHERE’S PETE BEST?

 +7Posted on Aug 16th, 2012 | re: Billy Corgan Says Soundgarden, Pavement Came Back "Only To Make Money" (69 comments)

This from the attention seeker who couldn’t sell records under his own name so he has to use his old band name.

 +1Posted on Aug 8th, 2012 | re: New Beck Album Song Reader Only Available As Sheet Music (150 comments)

Yeah that’s true. For some reason in my head I was equating sheet music with notated music. In fairness, it’s hardly my fault that the ancient world was so attached to rock or stone tablets. I guess that was probably the fault of the RIAA of the times who likely objected to the move to papyrus… “Tablet copying is killing music”.

It’s quite funny that we can describe publishing music in the manner that it has been released for the vast majority of the few thousand years of music history as “unusual”.

As Androids are never truly “born” can they really have a nationality?

 +2Posted on Jun 22nd, 2012 | re: Vote For The Indie Song Of The Summer 2012 (102 comments)

There’s a shop I go into every morning on my way to work and I swear that they’ve been playing this every other day over the last month along with “Sing It Back” by Moloko. Not sure if it’s just terribly small playlists on local Scottish radio stations or just that they have a tape they can’t get out the machine but it’s like the summer of ’99 all over again and I can’t deny that it has been consistently bringing a smile to my face for the brief moments before I realise I’m on my way to work…

It ruins the joke if you have to explain it but….

The NME need to get out of Ian Brown?

 -3Posted on Jun 20th, 2012 | re: NME's 20 Greatest Tracks Of The Past 60 Years (56 comments)

I fixed it….

20 The Stone Roses – “I Am The Resurrection”
19 Madonna – “Like A Prayer”
18 The Beach Boys – “God Only Knows”
17 Bob Dylan – “Like A Rolling Stone”
16 The Cure – “Boys Don”t Cry”
15 The Beatles – “A Day In The Life”
14 Sex Pistols – “God Save The Queen”
13 Michael Jackson – “Billie Jean”
12 The Ronettes – “Be My Baby”
11 The Rolling Stones – “Sympathy For The Devil”
10 Oasis – “Wonderwall”
09 Massive Attack – “Radiation Ruling the Nation”
08 The Specials – “Ghost Town”
07 The Smiths – “There Is A Light That Never Goes Out”

05 New Order – “Blue Monday”
04 The Beach Boys – “Good Vibratons”
03 David Bowie – “Heroes”
02 Pulp – “Common People”
01 Joy Division – “Love Will Tear Us Apart”

A sly declaration of new classic status slipped in to a list of old safe ones. Very NME….

 +11Posted on Jun 18th, 2012 | re: Sigur Rós - "Fjögur Píanó" Video (Feat. Shia LaBeouf) (NSFW) (53 comments)

I think it’s sad that we live in a world where a post containing a glimpse of Shia LaBeouf’s penis is tagged NSFW but a picture of Billy Corgan that sits all week in the Most Commented section contains no such warning.

“the first billion is a helluva lot harder”

Helluva? It’s true what they say – money can’t buy you spell check.

Back in 1997/98, I remember having a midi version of Paranoid Android that I actually used to listen to that sounded a bit like this so weirdly this actually takes me back.

 +13Posted on Apr 12th, 2012 | re: NME's 100 Best Tracks Of The '70s (80 comments)

Quite interesting that the first list in a long time from the NME not to include Kasabian comes on the same day it is announced that the current editor is leaving.

Gosh that comment about the Foo Fighters makes me look a bit of a dick. Just listened to Everlong for the first time in ages and it’s still awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBG7P-K-r1Y
