    Ott - Mir

    I quite liked this, the problem is though that it was released only digitally at first and there was no way I would pay for a digital download so.....I stole it off of the interwebz, it is a good album and it is probably good enough to but a physical copy of but for some reason, probably the fact that I already have a digital copy, I am not willing to buy it. Artists, if you are going to release an album digitally and physically, release it physically first. The opposite way round is beyond moronic business-wise. As I said good stuff all round here but not good enough to make one want to buy it when they already have it digitally. Sorry for stealing it but I will never pay for downloaded music. Put it on CDR and you can have an inexpensive physical format that will still appeal to most CD-philes.
  2. Damn right it is! I love that section
  3. Robert Davies - Whispering Grove
  4. I was born on the exact same day Pope John Paul II was shot Coincidence? I think so.
  5. Jacob Newman & Devin Underwood - The Vivid Unmapped
  6. Welder - And We're Dying I had forgotten about his album but I don't know how, especially with this great track
  7. Hell yeah it did! Just like my dad overtaking a car would rock forwards to give him that extra bit of momentum
  8. What was wrong with goa-getter? Does LvB have some meaning? Just curious.
  9. I'd like to purchase this on Amazon. Is it going to be there like the first one? Yes this is pretty much the only download I am willing to pay for (shakes fist at the lack of CD)
  10. So are a few of my mates but they would never have made something like love songs from the source

    Filmz Update

    I recently saw Black Swan. It was a fairly decent movie. An enjoyable 2 hours anyway but it really was just THIS GIRL IS GOING MENTAL RAAAGGGHHH and it lacked subtlety.
  12. I managed it this morning and while it didn't come from your advice it did come from your post. You said you did it by accident so I stopped trying to do it and suddenly BOOM I'd done it
  13. No matter how hot you are, destroying all the rum is a hangable offence. The only acceptable answer to "Why is all the rum gone?" is "I drank it all, but I'll buy you some more right now"
  14. Rant accepted! Kick her out and see how she does. Worked for me, I went to college and got a decent job because of it (I ran far away thoug, be ready for that).
  15. That is one of the ugliest covers I have seen this year
  16. Last 3 months All time My last 3 months seem to be a little more upbeat than my all time trends.
  17. I definitely think that music made by people making what they want to make is usually better than those that change for what they think will be more popular however I also want the artists to make music that I like and if they don't I should be free state my opinion be it constructive or not. People don't always have to be constructive when they critise music, sure it is better to be so but if I want to say that such and such is shit because I hate it and it's shit then so be it. The opinion is not invalid because I didn't detail the ways I would make it less shit. Basically I think artists should make what they want to make but to take any critism (constructive or not) on the chin. If they can't handle critism then they shouldn't release their music. Someone somewhere is always going to hate it and in our annonymous internet world they will have no fear saying it, a lot. All I hope for is that I can find artists that make music that I really like, from their heart. Generally they'll make one album like that before either changing away from my taste or trying too hard to meet my taste and it's never as good. Occasionally you'll get an artist who can make more than a few albums like that but they are very rare IMO.
  18. Rum!
  19. I'm so confused, I manage to agree with all oposing opinions This I definitely agree with. Go to Karaoke with some friends and belt out some of your favourite songs as badly as you can! I recommend The Pogues as you don't need to be able to sing
  20. Ace! Still not going to turn Scorb off to listen to it though, but I might buy it
  21. You're a junkie? IMO this is just crap. if 7 is average and 5 is bad then what the hell is 1,2,3 & 4? It's people that use scales like this that show us that introducing a scoring system will end in a big bag of fail. I don't mind a score, I really don't with decent reviewers but so many people have fucked up scoring system 6/10 mediocre crap or 12/10 WTF?? As would I if it was consistently used correctly. It wouldn't be though and we'd get some pretty crappy results if we made it that reviewers had to rate their reviews (well I really fucking hated this piece of shit album but I like the guy and appreciate that he is trying something he wants to do so I'll still give it 7/10 despite its crapness) I would too if I had a tried and trusted reviewer but that still doesn't equate to making reviews needs a score. I would go for Basilisk's idea if people would ever be able to follow it. However they'd fall into your second take and that's why I reckon this should be ignored.
