´óÏó´«Ã½

I still don't understand your review, what I know is that I like Electric High and its better than all that pop punk that loads of English bands are still churning out. I gather you want all the bands to sound like everyone else or can someone look for that new ground and not get killed by you. Its a strong single by this band with a really good vid to go with it. I am looking forward to the album and seeing them play at The Forum. The mosh pit will be owned by me when they play this....

Hmm. Is three stars "getting killed"?

I'd never really heard of this lot until Discover a few months back, which was pretty good. Kind of had a similar feel to that Panic At The Disco song last year or the year before (Nine In The Afternoon I think). Pretty, with strings, but not terribly melodramatic.

Not heard this, and it's not a priority, but might well give it a whirl.

Ha ha ! Of course 3 stars is getting killed !

(But only if you are the world's biggest Elliot Minor fan... )

Curtains , what would your reaction be if Fraser gave Valentine by Delays only 3 stars ?

lol

Just to clarify - pretty but not terribly melodramatic is a compliment. Just in case young Billy gets all annoyed again.

You're right. I'd probably order the carpet-bombing of the entire southwest.

On the subject of the great band, Spirit - I went on a bit of a spree buying their b-sides on Saturday. Such greatness. And I know you weren't a fan of Love Made Visible (nor was I), but the other songs on that EP are truly great (including the remix of Love Made Visible itself).

Regarding Everythings the rush...

Why Love made visible , Hooray , and Keep it simple were singles and the best track on the album, Girl's on fire was not , was in my mind , a huge commercial mistake .

Girls on fire , will always be one of life's great mysteries for me..

Fraser , where is this video ?

Excellent. Watching that video will be my first order of business when I get home.

I like Girl's On Fire, but I disagree that it's the best song on the album. I'm afraid I'd have to give that to Pieces, which is epic. Maybe Girl's On Fire and Silence as joint second.

But still, they should have replaced half the album with the b-sides from the EP (including using the remix of Love Made Visible instead of the version that's on the album). They were more inkeeping with the slightly darker, more desperate tone of You See Colours, and would have stopped Everything's The Rush sounding so constantly blooming cheerful.

Well in my opinion , Girl's on fire would have had a chance of being playlisted at radio 1 , it's that good , and to me is the song that had the most chance of being a commercial success .

We will never know however .

See , Curtains , this is the power of respect , I am now gonna give Pieces another listen.

I have just been chatting to Aaron online , and the new Delays album will be called.....

" Star tiger , star ariel "

Sounds interesting !

Indeed. Concept album?

I hope not.

Ha ha , and there you were earlier , saying on the Muse blog , that you were gonna purchase the 3 "symphony " tracks from the Resistance album.

lol

Yeah. Can't see Delays releasing something called "Exogenesis Symphony", can you? :o)

No, but one song that might make the album is called Rhapsody .

Excellent. Spirit, dunno if you saw my post on Rybak last week or not, but if you didn't - do let the band know that their music is epically beautiful. I'm sure they know that already, but it can't hurt to hear it from a fan every now and again.

Of course .
Now that Oasis have split up , Delays are your favourite existing band.
You are seeing them at the Borderline in London , next month , you have made fans out of your girlfriend and friends etc.
I totally get the picture , Delays make beautiful heavenly music , that moves you and takes you to places that are extremely magical and special .
Noted sir.

Back to the song. Awful.

oh look everyone turns up now?! ive been keeping this whole damn show running by myself..

Delays are awesome.. hideaway must have done well in the charts no?
friends are false for the win. girl on fire? pretty avg.

herd elliot minor summer b4 last, guilty pleasure band really.. this song is alright, catchy chorus i guess..

and HA!, "The mosh pit will be owned by me when they play this...."

yea mate, good luck against those 13 year old girls. go to an In Flames gig and talk to me.

Ha ! Go to an ENTER SHIKARI gig and then talk to me !

yep, see you at Enter Shikari...my lil sis got me into Elliot Minor, she can scream at the barrier I will have my fun. If Elliot Minor is her first band thats fine with me.

So Billy , are you indeed from Bristol ?
And will you be catching Enter Shikari at the Academy on the 7th of October ?
And will you be owning the mosh pit again ?
And if you had to pick , what is your favourite gig you have been to and why ?

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

Oh dear, Flatknees. What HAVE you said now?

Slipknot call their fans maggots. Shows how much they appreciate them. Lawlz.

fair play, i thought it would have been about the first remark i made in the post.. no matter..

and they just call their fans that cuz its HARDCORE or smthin i guess.. i don't think they use them as fishing bait...

.... then again

I hear the clown likes fishing...

... FOR SHARKS!! USING HUMAN HEADS AS BAIT!!! YOU MAGGOTS!!!!!

Mods are well frisky atm.

Yeah. All I said was "30!", as well.

Haha evidently.

Dammit. Fraser, did you get them to put that back up just to make me look bad?

Would that be 1-0 to Fraser, perhaps?!

Not if you count the "bear" pun-off we had the other week. I saw him off on that one.

That now looks like 2-0 !

It's curtains for Curtains !
