@Eh, no, my friend Ole, it's precisely because I'm getting old that I have much more experience in these matters than you do, considering that at your age I was already listening to them, while you were still playing with toy cars. The WH don't say anything different from the Loop, over twenty years later, not to mention Hawkwind (and the singer even has a bit of a sad passion for Iggy). @Psycho: live, they are very twisted in on themselves, with no chance of escape, while Pontiak open up, let themselves go, and explore even unexpected paths. So much so that Sea Voids really disappointed me because it felt a bit asphyxiated, while live, the same tracks breathe, the emptiness fills, saturates, and then reappears. Then a bit angry because the WH, although opening, played more than Pontiak due to time constraints, and I could have listened to Pontiak for another half hour, while after half an hour the WH have already said everything and have nothing more to add.

Here’s the fresamaroni. But I'm here just by chance, I threw on an ed, and in the hp I see the good psycho reviewing a band I know, you really think I won’t rant? He’s already mentioned bartle, they made me feel like I was at a live show, like a poor man's Loop, a bit like Hypnotics too. It wasn't just the bassist (the one from Hate Rock'n'roll is a couple of inches taller than her). It was that I just felt like I’d heard this stuff too many times in my life. I'm old, that's not news. Pour moi, Pontiak have spread themselves too thin, who knows where they're headed, these guys are a bit predictable. But the last Pontiak that Psycho tells you about... that one makes me feel the same way too.

More than a review, it looks like an Excel spreadsheet: each piece is linked to its genre... if you had done it like this, it might have been more useful. I could just pop it into the player and off I went! It's a little thing that I’m quite attached to; I bought it in London in '81 for two bananas, it was on special offer, and, yes Voodoomiles, they may not have been punk but they fought to the death with CBS to get it released as a triple and at a special price. It's a monstrous record, and I don't think I need to add anything else. Oh, and it was very well received by critics even when it came out. The one who didn’t get it was Kurt Cobain, but who the hell cares?

Here I am! Oh, it’s always the same: beautiful page for a record I don’t know. I’ll give it a try, but if Saputello and Voodomiles are right, I’ll feed you to the lions. I’ll respond over there, calmly, not too much. Bye!

Please. However, yesterday I threw a few curses at you, I hope your ears didn't ring too much...
PJ Harvey 4-Track Demos
Voto:
The reception isn't bad, but there are a couple of things... if Albini hears you calling the production of this record "rich" and "fake," he will run after you with a tele and hit you over the head with it. You confuse the lack of production; these demos are not produced as such, they are the rough versions that Polly sent to Albini, and producing a record. The demos came out because the English music press attacked the American who had ruined the English countryside, and Polly felt that Albini had too much influence on Rid Of Me, in fact, she never called him again. In my humble opinion, I believe I've said this before, Rid of Me has the best guitar sound of all the '90s. And no trio ever played like that in the '90s as they did on that record. No, but what rich and fake production, it’s pure essentiality, the sound as it comes out of the amps with a bit of distortion, nothing more. The more I go on, the more I realize you’ve written a deadly nonsense. Sorry for this remark, but I just can't help it. I'll spare you the other thing, go ahead.
The Brian Jonestown Massacre Who Killed Sgt. Pepper?

Good morning. I thank everyone for stopping by, as usual, a special thanks to @Psycho for the courtesy of letting me know about the album release, which I would have otherwise noticed this summer. Yes, @Cappio, it comes out next week on that front, but it's a discussion that has already been addressed several times and it has been decided not to wait for official releases anymore. Also because I had noticed that DeB was now the last site not to have the review, and it annoys me when we are the last, and I had figured that Psycho wasn’t in the mood for it :-). @Zaireeka, at least give it a couple of listens, they’re not that difficult!

Here is Panic, the very fact that there are only two other women here, the one who wrote the review and Gabri, and that both have clashed over the first post, should make you think. But perhaps it's asking too much from someone who even reevaluates Corona. The fact is that this certain creeping misogyny that dominates DeB, not just in this case but just read the definitions given to female singers in general, has honestly pissed me off. Marylin was a whore and Kennedy a stud, ad libitum obviously. Since I'm quite tired of arguing with other users, I don’t believe I have used insulting tones. The first post speaks for itself. Yours, too.

Beautiful page. The post sub uno speaks for itself; I was almost tempted to delete it. It's better to be labeled as a censor than to have to read certain things. But, precisely, it speaks for itself.
