Kyuss - Sky Valley

Working oh so well today...

[Seany S]

I was listening to Sky Valley the other day whilst trying to put together a massive flat pack wardrobe. My frustration and anger were tempered by the filthy stoner rawk riffery.

Today I am listening to a few comedy CDs I dug out, peter Cook and Chris Morris "Why Bother?" and a hilarious prank phonecall album by some Scottish comedians called The Hang Ups - sort of like the Jerky Boys but from Paisley. Very amusing.

Ozric Tentacles - Strangeitude. 'Maaaan'

Ozric Tentacles - Strangeitude. 'Maaaan'

Breakfast in America - Supertramp. Can't bring myself to change it in the car's CD player. Not a bad track on the whole album and brilliant lyrics that seems to fit the hot weather, the recession and generally difficult times.

Makes the A303/ M3 seem like the East Coast Highway for a few minutes every day.

It must be good because it replaced in my cd player the greatest live album ever recorded and even better digitally remastered to the original running order...UFO - Strangers in the Night. Best live band I have ever seen and saw them twice at the Portsmouth Guildhall in the late seventies.

Yes mate indeed. Soulseek for a bit but I used to record 'live' straight from the ninjatune weekly stream too in the early days.

I would love to find an MP3 of the Festival Hall 'V-Jam' gig Coldcut broadcast about 10 years ago. Have it on tape somewhere. Excellent mix (featuring in part the Black Beauty soundtrack alongside some Euro96 commentary. Worked superbly well!)

[St Landrew]

Been going through my mini light reggae collection over the last few days, and my 3 or so UB40 albums have amazingly stood the test of time, IMO. Was remembering a couple of lovely holidays in Cornwall during my 20s* [early 1980's], and tracks like Food For Thought, King, Many Rivers To Cross and Cherry Oh Baby actually had me almost feeling those times like they were a touchable thing. I welled up a few times, it was that tangible. I think if I could have smelled an old canvas tent at the same time the whole scene would have been complete. ;)

*It should be remembered that, like loads of people, I spent many holidays in Cornwall, right from my youth. The two or three that I had during my early 20s were extra special. It's a special county, as the Cornish know very well.

Yes, Shot by Both Sides is on Real life, track 3. CD on Virgin with 2nd album, Secondhand Daylight, which is ordinary. IMO all the best stuff is on Real Life, they should have spread 'em out a bit!

The XX

[Redbul]

Fun Lovin' Criminals today. In chronological order I think. Just listened to Come Find Yourself, now on 100% Colombian. This second album sounds much 'rougher' than the first and imho is the much better for it.

The Wildhearts - ¡Chutzpah!


Too early for a proper like/dislike but on first spins there are a few songs that stand up to their past work. You heard it yet Ponts?

[Deppo]

Johnny Hates Jazz - Johnny Hates Jazz

[Ponty]

The Wildhearts - Chutzpah!

Can't decide yet.. I mean, it's less eye-widening than "Endless Nameless" and less poptastic than "....Must Be Destroyed", but it's lacking something. It's not as hard as "The Wildhearts", not as R'N'R as "P.H.U.Q", "Riff After Riff" and "Earth Vs..." but it's not innovative either. Some of the songs are great, some are too formulaic and some just sound like covers of any American rock band's B-sides.

I'm sure it'll grow on me more as I play it relentlessly on the iPod.




PS. I'm aware that this review was really only informative to Pancake.

Yes yes and thrice yes dear sir. Its an odd one to say the least. A couple of songs are total WH-AOR-pop: "The Only One" and "...New York", the former actually being on of my faves so far. Not keen on "...New York" as its the type of throw-away Ginger track he was knocking out as his "Singles Club" stuff back in '01. "The Jackson Whites" and "Mazel Tov ****tail" are awesome tracks that will be on repeat a lot I think. "Tim Smith" and the title track are as close as we get to riff-tastic epic this time, not bad but both too short! Im pretty sure "John Of Violence" was nicked from Green Day (I jest, natch).

You downloaded "The Snake, The Lion, The Monkey and The Spider" from their official site yet? The unofficial "Track 11" from the album. Plus there are 4 extra tracks on the Jap. version, including the full version of "Zeen Requiem" that I sent you the bootleg of earlier in the year. Not sure when they are getting a UK release, but Ive got the Jap. version on order so should be hear soon.

[Ponty]

I didn't download SLMS but I listed to the stream (assuming it would be on the album - perhaps I should read more closely) and thought it was great, in a lol way ("f***ing, crazy b***ard" and monkey noises should be included in every song IMO) and will be downloading it tonight.

Where have you ordered the Japanese release from, out of interest?

[Pancake]

HMV Japan, shipped yesterday. Woot!

[Ponty]

The Japanese always do well out of the WH.

[Pancake]

The extra tracks will be uk released at some point, but no one is saying when. I, being the completest geek I am cant wait for "whenever" :D

Well after watching a few episodes of Game On, from the link I left on The Office thread, I decided to actually listen to Where I find My Heaven by the Gigolo Aunts. Nice bit of pop, and a cracking beginning to each episode of Game On. But here's the whole song, and a little video of Harrison Ford flying aeroplanes [airplanes to him, no doubt]:

[Rory]

Was listening to the new Romano Falls album a lot yesterday. I think Buzzin' Horn would like it.

[Deppo]

Buzzin' Orn or the Buzzing Hornet?

[Rory]

I think both and I think Deppo may like it too.

A few more listens in and I really, really like it now. I disagree with Ginger's comment that "it's like nothing we've ever done" because it's almost a snapshot of everthing they've ever done. My only complaint is that it's too damn short.

[bpsaint]

Heard a Queen song on TV the other day and it made me dig out their greatest hits albums so have been listening to them quite a bit. Freddie quite simply is a legend. I wish more than any other band ever,I could have seen them live.
