I have all their albums. Don't really listen to them too much, but I do like them when I do.

Finally giving this album (Modern Vampires of the City) a spin, had it downloaded it for awhile.

It's fucking brilliant. Very clever band. Deserves all the critical acclaim it received.

While I'm at it: I give a fuck about an Oxford Comma.

They're a good band. Well crafted and clever, they've turned out two really good albums. Their first remains my favorite. I thought Contra was messy but this one is good third one. I do find them a little bit overrated maybe that's just because they aren't really a band that I can love for some reason. Step was one of the best songs last year. Unbelievers was one of the catchiest. However I find Ya Hey to be one of the most annoying.

It's between their first and second album for me, I can't chose what the best album is. The third album was a nice change of pace but didn't blow me away as the first two did but I still put in my top 10 from 2013.

Great production. This album was Pitchfork's top album of 2013 as well.

Pretty good band. I really listened to the first album a lot when it came out. Catchy, clever and fresh. The next two never really got that into them. But yeah first album brilliant. I'll be seeing them this weekend at Lollapalooza. I'll let you know how that goes.

One of the best bits of the festival.

Shoutbox

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
