How does it all work ? (rock, albums, fan, Eminem)

adidasss · 06-26-2005, 12:14 PM

to music history? nothing much, just another brit rock band, and i used to like a couple of their songs and one from the previous album, but not enough to really get into them, not to mention that their constant attempts to get attention through the media by being total pricks really pisses me off....

But the media attention is often out of the hands of the artist(s). We can all be pricks at some time, it's just that we don't have the press in constant hot pursuit. Do you not agree?

i'm affraid not, saying eminem is a stupid git and that nothing good ( music wise ) came out of america except for the strokes and other inflamatory statements like that have no purpose but to attract attention to themselves

Yeah but it's only words from an individuals view point.

I bought the fist two Oasis albums, loved the first and thought the second was... o.k.
Since then I've formed the opinion Oasis are tapping into music that's been done before, which frustrated me because I think Noel is a talented song writer and capable of being...more original!
As for Liam I think he brings it all on himself, although I suspect a lot of his comments
are tongue in cheek and he buzzes off the wind up.
Top tune; Cigarettes & Alcohol. What's yours?

Hello Right Track,
Your correct about the first 2 albums being sorta V/good and ok respectivley. In the studio they would always struggle to keep the standards of the 1st two albums. I really love The Masterplan album of B/sides, in particular Rocking Chair, It's good to be free, and a brilliant version of I am the Walrus.
You said Cigarettes and alcohol as top tune, I agree. I also like Columbia & Up in the Sky.
Who do really like, Right Track?

shandapanda · 06-26-2005, 03:30 PM

what's mancunian?

right-track · 06-27-2005, 04:04 PM

I am the walrus was a great cover, as is Come On Feel The Noise.
Forgot about The Masterplan B/ sides (see now you got me remembering why I liked them In the first place) also like Roll with It.
Like you Dezzy I'm not as young as most on this forum, so my tastes go a bit further back, that and a love of all 60's stuff!
Kinks/Rolling Stones/The Who/Small Faces/Hendrix etc.
From the 70's; The Clash/Stranglers/Stiff Little Fingers/Talking Heads.
But my real passion is with Northern Soul. Not seen any threads in this forum yet, but some have an interest in more mainstream soul (motown).
I'm here to find anything new, anything interesting. Adidasss has a thread on Cesaria Evora worth looking at in 'International music'. Never heard of her before coming here,that alone has made it worthwhile already.
Do you have any unusual tastes in music, any reccomendations Dezzy?
