JoeyB Posted 26 December 2006 Posted 26 December 2006 i got the muse album "black holes and revelations" and its fab
Jay Posted 26 December 2006 Posted 26 December 2006 I got an album by The Dualers who are a Ska Duo (ex buskers) from kent my friend recommended them as they were on the same line up when they played rock city the other week. it's not bad to be fair, very mellow although not quite to the standard of The King Blues
Leonisco Posted 26 December 2006 Posted 26 December 2006 Fratellis - Costello Music. Belting. Snap. Also got Empire by Kasabian and Stop The Clocks by Oasis. Wow, my 365th post. One for every day of the year.
syston_fox Posted 26 December 2006 Posted 26 December 2006 didnt get any for x-mas but picked up a copy of Kasabians 2nd album in woolworths for £5.97
potter3 Posted 27 December 2006 Posted 27 December 2006 Snap. Also got Empire by Kasabian and Stop The Clocks by Oasis. Wow, my 365th post. One for every day of the year. I got Costello music too, and Empire for my Dad but someone else also got him it >.< But I'll load his music on my iTunes anyway so in effect I also got Empire and Sam's Town.
Brummie-FOX Posted 27 December 2006 Posted 27 December 2006 NME - The Essential Bands With bands like The Kooks, The Killers, Razorlight, all the indie stuff
AlbertFox Posted 28 December 2006 Posted 28 December 2006 Rise by The Answer. A bit like Wolfmother in a retro 70's rock (Led Zep, Free) kind of way, but with a slightly harder and bluesier edge. Cracking listen.
Cat Burger Posted 28 December 2006 Posted 28 December 2006 I bought Steady Diet of Nothing by Fugazi with some gift money, not given it enough time to comment.
JoeyB Posted 28 December 2006 Author Posted 28 December 2006 i brought stop the clocks by oasis today with gift vouchers it was a toss up between the NME album oasis(one i brought) or jamiroqui hopefully i made the right choice
Cat Burger Posted 28 December 2006 Posted 28 December 2006 That NME album is one of the worst things I've ever seen.
Nationwider Posted 28 December 2006 Posted 28 December 2006 Charlatans singles Grimethorpe Colliery Band CD
dandannieldanok Posted 28 December 2006 Posted 28 December 2006 That NME album is one of the worst things I've ever seen. Would you care to explain why?? I think its good.
Alexikokopops Posted 29 December 2006 Posted 29 December 2006 Would you care to explain why?? I think its good. NME is as embarassing as my attempted spelling of embarassing. If you want a magazine that overhypes average bands then go wild, there's much batter "indie" bands out there than what they bosh out week in week out. Seriously, are bands like the Artic Monkeys really that good? This is more a go at the magazine, I have no idea about the cd because I'd rather do something really not enjoyable (I'm on the ball today) than trust NME to make a compilation. I'm too tired to make coherent arguments, someone else do it for me.
shen Posted 29 December 2006 Posted 29 December 2006 None, but I got my mother the live Rammstein CD/DVD "Völkerball"
Matt Posted 29 December 2006 Posted 29 December 2006 Bought for me; The New Pornograpahers Bought with vouchers; Muse, Goldfrapp, Kings Of Leon.
Nationwider Posted 29 December 2006 Posted 29 December 2006 The NME used to be synonymous with (fairly) high quality music journalism and rampant Moz-baiting. I bought a copy about a year ago (strictly for the articles, you'll understand) and it's become a dumbed-down silly Look-In style teen comic that actually likes Stephen Patrick. Anything that bears the NME seal of approval is most likely to be pap. Things were better in my day. Facto.

Anything that bears the NME seal of approval is most likely to be pap. Things were better in my day. Facto. That makes more sense than my post but Nationwider is intelligent, it's a given. Gone are the days when NME used to be about searching out new bands, now it just seems to be about increasing the hype for about 10 mainstream indie bands, which change around as time moves on.
JoeyB Posted 29 December 2006 Author Posted 29 December 2006 just brough kasabians empire with more vouchers what a good album
Fez of Mahrez Posted 30 December 2006 Posted 30 December 2006 None, but I got my mother the live Rammstein CD/DVD "Völkerball" I got my Dad that.
