Text of the page (random words):
a list picker vying for a percentage split of the list hungry wheat sorters or something before this list wheat metaphor runs for thousands of words accidentally turning into some sort of listless crime and punishment i present to you some music records of this present year 2012 which i thought were quite good and stuff they pleased my ears let them please yours tall ships everything touching tall ships debut album seemed to be coming for years and once it finally arrived it did not disappoint full of infectious instrumentals catchy hooks and snips of soft indie vocals everything touching is where guitar music should be but never bothered to go inventive yet traditional i want to call it post indie but i m worried somebody will find me and punch me if i do twilight sad no one can ever know it s dark brooding and menacing the twilight sad who apparently fall into the shoegazer genre have refined their sound from a wall of kick you in the face noise to a simpler construction with a much more electronic foundation bad books ii i m getting bored of my own list never a good sign so read what i wrote about this manchester orchestra kevin devine hybrid here plan b ill manors aggressive vitriolic and politicised plan b s ill manors released to accompany his film of the same name is a zeitgeist collection of distrust and disgust i never thought it would be my cup of tea but it s hard not to be sucked in by the underworld ben drew creates with his tales of drugs sex and death in broken britain it s by no means the slickest album but if it was it wouldn t work half as well as it does as a modern day protest album the xx coexist it was almost written to feature on end of year lists simple shy and ever so sexy coexist is even more stripped back than the xx s debut album yet twice as alluring coexist sees jamie smith s influence on the production increase with more of the sort of two step percussion he s fond of and the subtle anti drops that litter his remix work whereas the vocals and simple reverb riffs remain the same perhaps the trio have done all they can with their sound and using smith s production values is a sort of get out of jail free card but coexist still makes for a brilliant album right away great captain the church of the good thief the beautiful conclusion to andy hull s side project a trilogy charting the pain and anguish of a man who found his brother in bed with his wife ran swam in a boat to sea then returned and murdered his brother yikes the church of the good thief is songwriting at its best mewithoutyou ten stories i wrote a review of this on my own blog here so enjoy it s a cracking concept album centered on the derailing of a circus train and the subsequent adventures of its animals including a bear and a fox who become friends so much so that the bear throws himself of a cliff so that the fox might have something to eat sobs and some more the unwinding hours afterlives scottish music rocks alt j an awesome wave i don t really think i could say anything new about this record but suffice to say i enjoy it deftones koi no yokan deftones are one of a dying breed bands founded in the alternative rock and heavy metal heyday who have retained their identity and managed to consistently put out solid music without abandoning the sound which made them immerse yourself ben howard every kingdom brilliantly boring or boringly brilliant either way it s brilliant and a little bit boring posted in uncategorized tagged 2012 albums andy hull bad books best mewith plan b right away great captain the xx top twilight sad leave a comment biffy clyro at itunes festival needs more discovery and invention october 7 2012 the roundhouse shakes while 4 000 people inside shiver with goosebumps when biffy clyro are at their best at the itunes festival in between these peaks of rock supremacy is the occasional moment of boredom and mediocrity it s no secret the scottish rockers as their pseudonym has become abandoned the sound that made them great two albums ago but that s not to say they don t still make great songs openers frightened rabbit do a respectable job warming up the crowd with a perfect representation of scottish indie rock in its prime but they re not the band the masses are here to see biffy arrive on stage to a bizarre soundtrack of simon and garfunkel before launching into a strobe lit intro there are more bland ballads now than ballistic aural assaults but tracks like the captain and that golden rule still produce some of the best reactions of the night bubbles complete with an impressive bubble machine is one of the most best executed pieces of live music this reviewer has ever seen on top of the two additional live musicians the bare chested biffy trio command a huge stage presence their energy is barely rivalled and their technical ability remarkable they are widely regarded as one of the best live bands about and with good reason but at the roundhouse on saturday they try out too many new songs so much so that even the faithful mon the biff crowd lose interest songs such as folding stars and many of horror so far removed from the frantic brilliance of their first three albums rouse the crowd but for the wrong reasons everyone loves a good sing along but people also like singing along to wonderwall at 4am stumbling home from the city centre objectively these songs do a gig no favours strung to your ribcage and 27 were the only pre puzzle tracks on display and herein lies the greatest weakness of the show biffy clyro have a rich and varied back catalogue which could lay waste to any venue in 90 minutes and though they perfectly demonstrate this strength with choice cuts overall they disappoint by allowing weaker songs into their set any music fan should see biffy before death but do it quickly because album by album the quality of an ever diluted setlist is slowly waning posted in music tagged biffy clyro festival roundhouse itunes leave a comment three years since daisy why we re prepared to wait for brand new september 22 2012 today a grim anniversary passes it s unlikely there will be many ceremonies no minute of silence no flags at half mast there may be some tears a hand held tight by a loved one a melancholy head held in trembling hands but these will be behind closed doors even those who do mark the day uttering a quiet prayer to the heavens will not wallow they will pause then move on september 22 marks three years to the day brand new released their last album daisy scoff at my calender crossing if you like but worse bands have gone shorter periods of time without new material and had to suffer baying fans whining for more and brand new aren t just any tom dick or harry they re the alternative music s lady gaga they too seemed to have developed a die hard group of followers a mature music savvy discerning band of monsters or beliebers no brand new s fans are not just people who like their music but a cult a flippin cult sort of a cult that talks in lyrics and cuts its hair in time with jesse and these members of the cult have had three years of radio silence as far as tracklistings artwork or studio time goes but while they might shed a tear or have a little sing along to bought a bride they would not dream of forcing brand new s hand prematurely this is not because they do not want more god no they want more it s because these fans myself included so really it s we it s because we are respectful enough of jesse lacey that is and co and understand how delicate and intricate their musical progression has been from debut your favourite weapon in 2001 to the present day that we would not dare ask for more than they have given us already we are so smitten and feel so lucky to have been given a single album a single song a single note of theirs that anything else is an invaluable bonus had jesse we are as close as we sound sort of decided to end yfw after seven minutes we would have solemnly accepted his decision without protest but with love comes fear after 2006 s the devil and god are raging inside me an operatic tour de force we were anxious for daisy now after daisy we re cautious we the fans and the band are at a crossroad all thousands and millions of us are huddled together at this junction of musical life waiting with baited breath for someone in the band to pipe up and say i think it s this way we will move as one the passion of brand new fans might look bizarre and pathetic and silly and a little over the top to outsiders but it is warranted though the long island band s incredible musical progression is widely recognised from basement punk rock to introspective geniuscore and emotional attachment to lyrics and themes is not unusual in such a genre it is jesse s sincerity and authenticity in anything the band puts its mind to which has kept fans enthralled i could reel off the clichés about pouring his heart and soul into the music and all that jazz but it s true when the devil and god demos leaked jesse and the band were so upset they scrapped eight of ten of the tracks and started afresh little sneaky extra album there for us shhh this might sound like the transcript of a drunken 4am monologue so let s try and conclude when brand new decide their route we will follow but until brand new have picked up the pieces left strewn across the musical landscape by the self destruction of daisy we can have little clue what direction it will be so ferocious was daisy so unsure of footing so raw and scared it is impossible to say what the next step in this musical journey will be it is this uncertainty which makes us willing to wait in daisy s title track jesse sings if the sky opened up and started pouring rain like he knew it was time to start things over again daisy was a biblical flood drowning everything that came before the band have now been rinsed clean and though it has taken time and it will take more i we brand new s monsters are confident their next step will be devastatingly brilliant posted in music tagged brand new daisy jesse lacey the devil and god are raging inside me 2 comments run on rabbit run mewithoutyou master a circus concept june 5 2012 i reckon it s generally accepted concept albums are a dangerous venture the story needs to be one which can be reasonably told by a set of 11 or so tracks then the execution needs to be perfect the concept itself needs to be ever so slightly hidden from view so as not to be crude but present enough to be worth doing in the first place it is by no means easy or even necessary as far as storytelling goes mewithoutyou have nailed it several times in individual songs their allusions to bible tales and the goings on of various animals seem to be their favourite topics but this is this is the first time they ve tried it throughout an album and they ve only gone and bloody done it critics of the pennsylvanian five piece will point to their last album it s all crazy it s all false it s all a dream it s alright as the moment the band relinquished their rage filled raw damn near apocalyptic semi religious spoken word post hardcore to some furious volume to others to some degree those critics are right only occasionally in their last album can the distain and anger of a b life be heard and i think it s mainly when aaron weiss is singing about tomatoes and the music certainly mellowed too in their new offering ten stories the musical direction is midway between it s all crazy and brother sister in my view the best place it can be the guitars return much closer to the punchy riffs kicked along by purposeful drums than the etherial and arguably quirky melodies of before more importantly the anger and urgency has returned it has returned to the structure of a beautiful tale of a circus train crash ten stories follows the tales no pun of various animals a rabbit a fox a bear an elephant and some others as they escape the flaming wreckage of this circus train crashed on a cold night in february 1878 weiss s ability to paint such a vivid picture is incredible right from the off february 1878 we hear the rabbit s panting sprint from the nets of the policeman the tiger s hesitance and the elephant s concerns over his age and physical strength to get away throughout weiss switches from his tuneful drawl to the spitting shouts which gave mewithoutyou their unique sound several albums ago even on the first listen the characterisation of the animals can be picked up the elephant who charges the animal car to release them immediately after the crash is then too old to escape and is caught come track five elephant in the dock the jurors in a courthouse call for him to be hung these are stories you wouldn t find in many albums arguably they would not work in many other albums but herein lies weiss s and the rest of the band s ability to construct such a believable tangible piece of storytelling like an over emotive film trailer the tone of music provides the perfect backdrop to the vocals whether cracking with fear or inaudible with power the intricate imagery of the lyrics is translated almost faultlessly through each song the combination of the artwork the stories a return to the more forceful music and an increase in urgency in the vocals combines to make ten stories mewithoutyou s most accomplished and well rounded album i ve only had the cd a few days but already am picking out different notes of brilliance unheard on first listen and i am sure this novel will eventually go down as one of my favourite works posted in uncategorized tagged mewithoutyou ten stories 1 comment michael rosen s the sad book and the shared experiences of the c word june 2 2012 this is me being sad maybe you think i am being happy in this picture really i am being sad but pretending i am being happy i am doing that because i think people won t like me if i look sad the sad book michael rosen at cardiff school of journalism we had to submit a feature both the copy and as a layout on a page as part of the final stages of the course mine was about the way people who have cancer use each other as pillars of support i made a vague effort to offer it to the liverpool daily post as all those interviewed were wirral based but i never heard back from them i probably should have pushed it a little harder as i was really happy with how the feature turned out i spoke to several people and heard some very touching stories having to fight back tears on at least two occasions i will post the feature below but the reason i bring this up now is because i have just started following michael rosen on twitter he is a children s author his book the sad book is what makes him relevant to my feature rosen s son eddie died at 18 the sad book explains the grieving process as one might to a child it is an incredible book and one which one of the subjects of my feature sue byrne used to help deal with the death of her two year old daughter penny months after penny s death sue was diagnosed with breast cancer while preg...
