they make Snow Patrol sound like Throbbing Gristle (1 Viewer)

[Charlie Bucket]

Snow Patrol were the biggest album band in Britain last year: joy for their fans, depressing for detractors, who think they’ve dumbed down for success. Ireland’s the Frames have never come close to anything commercially comparable, and The Cost shows you why: bluntly, they make Snow Patrol sound like Throbbing Gristle. This is music so unadventurous, so lacking in originality, that even a three-albums-per-year forecourt buyer might blanch. If that seems harsh, check out whimsy-soaked exhibits such as Falling Slowly or Rise: wimpy warbling, soporific instrumentation, cliché-mired lyrics, music wholly without merit or balls. There can be no excuse. One star

Does anyone else get that 'Server too busy' message sometimes? Actually quite often. Is the Thumped server kicking the bucket?

It's Genisis P Orridge. Himself and the missus (his) have the same size boobs. Or so I believe...

 

[Vinnie]

Not only that, it's lazy & clichéd writing. There's a nice irony in a lazy unadventurous journalist accusing a band of same.

I don't feel sorry for him. It's a lifelong project thay've embarked on to try to eradicate gender. Fair play.

Did anyone hear the story of when he was homeless in LA and crashing in Rick Rubin's place? He got pissed and fell down the stairs then tried to sue Rubin for damages.

Anyway I only looked at this thread cause I'm mildly dyslexic and thought it was about a band who made Throbing Gristle sound like Snow Patrol. Bogus.
