    Practically Impossible German Music Challenge

    Thought it might be this bunch; German and sound like Oasis, but all their songs are in English. They've actually got some quality tunes of their own though - check out Heartbeater and Shadow Dancer: https://soundcloud.com/atomic-official Mando Diao are a Swedish band who've been around since...

    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    If by DJing you mean deciding what song to hit the 'play' button for when the previous one is fading out, then yes, that is Come Again DJs 'avin it large. Embarrassingly, the picture makes me look really fat and it looks like we have matching shirts on, but we didn't. Honest. Had it been the...

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    Are the crappy conditions gonna change any time soon? I could do with some sunshine, be that unusually mild February sunshine, or bright, frosty winter sunshine. I'm so fed up with the wind and rain and general bleakness. Just glad and grateful that I'm not one of the poor sods who are flooded.

    UK Comedy Cup - Group A

    This is the toughest group of all. 3 shows which could all grace a final, and a stinker in EDC. Still can't decide who to vote for. TYO is bound to go through, but Spaced and The Thick of It are easily equal to it, though probably not quite as ground-breaking. *ponder ponder*

    I ordered mine from Odd Box cos it's only £11.00 inc p&p - hope to have it in the next day or two. http://oddboxdistro.bigcartel.com/product/nobody-s-business-vol-1-a-diy-pop-compilation Meanwhile, the whole thing can be streamed here, and it really is a bit of a cracker...

    Jeremy Hunt is an utter shit. Mind you, most of them are nowadays.

    Will we make the top 6?

    I'm sure that I wrote exactly the same last season: we draw way too many and we don't score enough goals. There's still plenty to play for, but realistically I feel we'll be lucky to be in the Top 8, let alone the Top 6.

    Great shout with 3 Action, Staly, and keeping it Hullish and spiky with brass, Scarper! Bloody hell- just 3 views in 3 months; what's wrong with everyones' ears?

    This caused a huge amount of debate over on Anorak; a single page for the previous 2.5 years, then 4 pages in a week or two: http://anorakforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4742&start=20 Anyway, here's one of my Top 3 Amelia songs: Anyone wanna tell me about Beat Happening and how great they are...

    Have to admit, I didn't know that they'd released stuff on Elefant - that's great. This was always my favourite of theirs: She's got such a great voice.

    Booooooooooooooooooooo. That's not fair. How about the Odd Box Weekender in early May? The Friday night in particular is going to be IMMENSE - 4 brilliant bands and one decent one. Friday: The Manhattan Love Suicides Tyrannosaurus Dead Sock Puppets The Wendy Darlings The Sweet Nothings...

    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    There were many rumours that there wouldn't be an Indietracks this year - it's all run by a surprisingly small number of volunteers, and circumstances change, relationships end, children are born, priorities are updated... real life happens. Indietracks 2014 will take place on 25-27 July. I've...

    songs that overwhelm you with melancholy joy

    Clinic - Distortions "I've pictured you in coffins..." Just played this and has goose-pimples throughout. The climb to the last 30 seconds and the tempo change are just magnificent.

    songs that overwhelm you with melancholy joy

    **** yeah! I remember Alex mumbling the words a bit to this, and then she started crying half way through Before I Wake... at the Escape Club all those years ago. There was barely a dry eye in the house.
