Stereophonics, Snow Patrol, Cardigans,

I don't really want to be seen to be siding with Bassy, but I kinda agree with him on the comparative merits of the Mystery Jets circa 2005 and the Mystery Jets now.

I feel dirty.

"challenging" music. it's a complete super-bollocky-ovary of a title to give unheard of (probably for a reason) bands that you listen to.

personally i find most of "challenging" to listen to, by dint of me either not liking them or being about as interested in them as i am in wanking over my own faeces.

but then i wouldn't be so wanky-uber-bollocky-ovary-tastic as to describe the music i do listen to, like aphex twin or four tet, as "challenging".

I find listening to Bassy's views "challenging" most of the time tbf.

perhaps it's more "challenged". as in the views of the "challenged".

Bands like Snow Patrol, you just get bored of them after a while, and you need to listen to stuff that challenges you a bit more.

cracking album that.

nope, one's in my computer waiting for me to get my finger out and record it onto minidiscs, t'other is on my desk next to 'puter, giving me with a sense of guilt when i go to play games rather than set it recording, as it glints disappointedly at me.

actually, want the other four tets? pm...

getting back on thread - Planet Jedward - nuff said - ends all juvenile arguments (big smug head)

Do you not think that in comparison to 'Making Dens' about 5 years back this new stuff of theirs is cheesy as fuck? It just sounds like it could have been done by anyone of these x-factor types. It's all polished up, and overproduced, glossy and horrible, nothing like what they originally sounded like.

Cardies are a nice indie pop band, what's wrong with that?

Get fucked Bassman, you cripple c*nt. We've established over and over again that you weren't into "shoegaze an that" when it was first around - you got into it after wetting yourself over the lame modern rip off bands like Pains of Being Pure at Heart. Same as you got into all the other indie bands ages after they became commercial. Give this bullshit a rest - you lost this argument many years ago.

Oh, btw, shit thread. The correct thread is "Top 5 Albums of 2010". Squidge will do it when the time is right and it will shite all over this nonsense.

Rated accordingly.

Actually it's REALLY fucking good.

As Serious as Your Life. Listening again.

I bet you smoke a lot of dope though.

I first saw Mystery Jets on the NME tour a few years back. I was excited when they came onstage but was bored by them before they played the first chord.
