JILL'S RANT

Dont go to Glasgow so...

 

[Moods For Mallards]

I agree that there are rowdy drunks all over Dublin, and gigs are no exception.

I'm not trying to bash Dublin (I like it) but if you don't think the drinking is out of hand here you're just insane in my book. I'm all for a few drinks and a good time but weekends in the city centre and large gigs here are unfuckingbelievable. It's common place to jump over many piles of puke from Camden Street on my way home. Two weeks ago there was a taxi pulled over in front of Whelans with a girl puking her guts out with the guards and the taxi driving helping her. It's out of hand in my opinion. Especailly when it ruins the enjoyment of those around you who've paid good money to see/hear a band. I'll end my rant now because I've had enough.

Don't forget the guy walking around after the show with his pants down.

that was hilarious. Fucking not.

It was full of drunken arseholes. Ok, well maybe not full of, but there was enough of the fuckers to make it uncomfortable for everyone there who wasn't a drunken arsehole.

my new trick is to stand down the back with all the boring bastards. no jumping, humping or aggression (not including myself of course)

 

[Unicron]

New Handsome Furs (that's skinny Dan and his wife) album Face Control leaked today.

 

[pad]

is it good?

 

[rettucs]

I'm bringing it down now. Will rapidshare it for anyone interested when done.

 

[Unicron]

is it good?

Yes, a lot more upbeat that Plague Park was. Also better than At Mount Zoomer I think.

Probably already catapulted itself into the #3 spot in my list of Wolf Parade related ablums, but early days all the same.

thanking you scutter

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Dan loves minor keys.
I'm enjoying this at the moment. Running commentary here.
Talking Hotel Arbat Blues explains why Dan has been throwing Clash shapes and haircuts at recent Wolf Parade shows.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Yes, it's better than Plague Park. Well done, Dan. He's writing a lot of good songs these days.
I'll give it another spin later. I'm on no. 10, Thy Will Be Done.
He seems to have written most of the songs about Russia or in Russia.
Spencer said that he wrote all his At Mount Zoomer songs in a couple of weeks, which surprised me (might not surprise those who think they're rubbish [not me, except for Bang Your Drum]). They really do separate projects even down to the writing.

That's a good song, bite your tongue.
This album is good but not in my top three like unicron.

they told me there was no track 10, that they hadn't leaked it.

have to say on first listen it didn't jump out at me at all. I only listened to it on a crappy laptop speaker. Need to copy it to somewhere where I can give it my full attention.

The last song did sound great on first listen though.

Radio Kaliningrad? I think it's up there with Shine A Light and This Hearts On Fire.

I think The Grey Estates is his best rave-up. That's what they used to call them.

 

[Donkey OJ]

never gonna get past face control. really enjoying this. i was looking forward to it after mt zoomer cos i much prefer dan's songs. some of the guitar tones (and riffs) are great. i still worry that he's not eating the correct combination of carbohydrates and proteins though.

Nor anywhere in the UK where they were barred from entering after they played Dublin last time.

They've also previously had problems getting into the US on their first tour.

Wolf Parade haven't had similar issues as far as I know. I wonder if Alexie has a record (other than the obvious 2).

Why aren't our lads banning them? I'll get in touch with the authorities.
