Preferred his previous band The LA’s pity they imploded after the issues they had with getting the sound they wanted that just didn’t happen on their debut album. Love this track by Cast. This by The LA’s as TSG has been flogged to death.
IDLES BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB LONDON GRAMMAR SLEAFORD MODS ORIBITAL Nothing else on there is worth a visit, what’s the ticket price now circa £275.
All a bit meh imho and I think they were asking < £300 Bet there will be a few more tickets than normal going back in the ballot.
you probably know the story behind The La's and you can only pity all the band members* apart from L.M. J.P. went along with the self-sabotage, "my way or the highway" route for a long time before realising it was futile. I know it got a lot of praise from other artists but personally thought their one-and-only album, that only just got released (to then be slagged off by two of the band!) was overrated. The exception, the lovely single that everyone knows, was rumoured to be about H at the time but will never be confirmed of course. *and even the record companies/agents and producers.
i'm... i'm... totally shocked ..never listened to the words properly before, just thought she was hungry.
Yes I’ve read lots about them, went down a massive rabbit hole with them. Mathers it’s said wanted to record a 60’s sounding album but there were no recording studios with the equipment to record the sound he wanted. From memory the closest he ever got was a John Peel session recording. It could be argued that was probably the only album worth listening to should they have continued recording. The what if’s are for the birds for me though TBH. Powers made the correct decision IMO. For me it isn’t about H but people can interpret a song how they wish, the connection seems to come from the alleged use of drugs by Mathers and the one line within the song itself.
