Aye, if you want a shit mess of a video, sure.

Ah, they have fallen into the bloated world that I am on the periphery of. Everyone is very talented and lovely btw. But generally rubbish at sweeping floors. All terribly important people, I'm sure. But again, lovely.

It is kinda funny that they got a stylist who has them dressed up like something out of a comic book Clockwork Orange

But the song is undeniably good

 

[dudley]

Have finally heard this and must lay waste to your claim above. This is *awful* stuff. The only thing I can think of to describe it is, it's a lump of a song. Just a mound of discarded dirty laundry in musical form.

But it gets the people goin'!

But it gets the people goin'!

Does it?
I mean, I saw Kasabian live once and it was just a flat crowd. This is like that. Sort of overly filled with nothing much.

I have no idea about Kasabian. I like one song. If their own fans don't like them, then fine. Sad.
These guys do fine live though.

NME loves this tune. But that's probably written by 20-year-old un paid bloggers now.
General concensus is that everyone here hates this tune cos its fake/shit/Kasabian. But we're all old.
So who knows?

This sounds like a guy trying to write the very best lyrics he can and a band trying to remain relevant. That's truthful to me. And when art is truthful, it's good.

The real test for me is when I hear it on the radio and don't recognise it right away, but think "What's this? I love this. WHat is it again?"

The song is therefore good.

This is also not good.

It's nothing to do with age.
I'd have disliked this stuff 20 years ago aswell

It sounds like an idea that's been carved in stone for a thousand years to me

there are things in castles carved in stone by centuries of people peeing on them

An underrated movie... I think... it's been a while.

It’s probably been said already (but I just saw the poster now) but they’ve sold out the 3arena and have an extra date added.
They might be a bit shit but they’re Irish shit, so fair fucks to them.

I thought you were talking about this song for a minute

That is a good song

 

[Kermit McDermott]

"Jibber jibber jab in da club"

That is a good song

Ooh! Just watching the video here and fuck me that's a banger, and I just realised they reference the restaurant (Le Meurice) that me and Mrs. egg_ went to for her 30th birthday (was amazing fyi (if you're into food that isn't oatmeal))

Another song that you think is good because you have an emotional connection to /restaurant reference ?

An underrated movie... I think... it's been a while.

It was kinda a thrill hearing Niggas In Paris for the first time and hearing that clip
Like a little thrill of world's colliding or something

Got Otis on now
When Kanye is on, man is he ever on.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

They might be referring to Paris Hilton

On some level I guess I just don't get caring about something that you don't care for

Like I don't care for Love Island or the music of Ed Sheeran or the ongoing deluge of horror films - all these popular things that a lot of other people seem to put great store in

I just leave them be, if it's not good, it's kinda not interesting
It's interesting as to why they're popular, but I don't get openly railing against them


I may be reading it wrong, but a lot of posters here seem to think it important to have a declared position on the musical output of the Fontaines.
And "It's not for me, thanks" won't cut it.
Like the terrain of the hatred for these guys must be described.
Like this need to have a public position on a band. It seems like something 20-somethings do.

Just a weird thing to want to complain about.
