    Russian invasion of Ukraine

    I would like to think that Ukraine will put out some press release in the next few days around the "liberation" of Kursk Oblast and announce a poll on it being re-united with its fellow freedom loving people in Ukraine.

    I didn't get through the whole of the album on my way in to work this morning, so don't know if I missed it, but some of this did feel a little like the old country pastiche and was perhaps only missing the fact his dog died. Totally created images of bar rooms, line dancing and stetson/baseball...

    It almost feels like you typed that review up after coming straight off typing a response to Dax. Something also guranteed to put you in a bad mood. To my reading that isn't a total denial and I would almost suggest that colleagues going to the next match with you may walk a couple of steps in...

    Have to say that having read a couple of the comments before I gave this the first listen, I cannot get out of my mind the "Cream on steroids" comment. Once again an album supported by the strength of the bass/drum, with Ward/Butler being excellent to my ears. Although I'm not that enamoured of...

    Does this mean that you are admitting to also singing "YNWA"? You do have an out for "peer pressure"

    As with many, totally new for me and at first I was a little apprehensive about what was to come. However, the build up in the end perhaps made this even better. After 4-5 listens through I think it is the drums and bass that drive this, that do make you want to move along with it and draw you...

    The Bends, OK Computer & Popped In Souled Out? It was the references to molecules and mosh pits that made me think you had to have a huge forehead

    Surely thats this whole forum being honest about how they feel about the "European Royalty" that is Liverpool? But back to this pick. From another listen on way back from work this morning I once again started thinking about the discussion from past selections about where this sits. With the...

    First listen in the car on way in to work tonight and have to say I am really surprised. The whole build up had me wondering what on earth this was going to be like...and then...WOW The whole slow build of MTT420 was excellent, although I was waiting for it to explode. But then, "Are you ready...

    Liverpool Thread | 2024/25

    ....This year will be our year...... As for the squad, I would perhaps like to see a new left back to challenge/replace Robertson. I did alos wonder whether we should try and cash in (if possible) on Alison as I think Kelleher is a more than capable replacement and use the money elsewhere.

    This is going to be another new one for me. Guess my son is going to get more annoyed at me messing further with his spotify.

    The Bluemoon Song Cup 2024 Champion Is Hilts!

    It's Ike & Tina for me. Think first became aware of AWSOP via Withnail & I, albeit not by Procul Harem. It wasnt long after seeing the filmthat I started work with a guy and happened to mention it. His response was....."Yes, my dad wrote that but is suing over it". Nice to see he eventually won...

    So is it punk or new wave? Is it off its time or timeless? Is it a barm or......? Thats spooky as besides this weeks offering I am also listening to The Beastie Boys biography at present. I had just got to the section where they are talking about "Licence to Ill" and how that was very much "of...

    Having only ever really heard the singles I had an idea that they were quite different from their normal output. Always having the image of The Stranglers as a punk band so I have been surprised at the overall sound of this album. Two listens in and I am really enjoying it. I can certainly see...

    Its almost like that fabled time when OK Computer was reviewed and all sorts suddenly appeared on this thread! Didnt know Williams was but guessed as much about Floyd due to him using Peaches on his cooking shows

    Amazing what little nuggets of info this thread actually reveals. Had it on in car after collecting wife from work this morning. She just drops in, "Oh yes, I went to see the Stranglers". Thats us together for almost 30 years and I never knew that! Had listened to the odd single of theirs...
