2013 Lineup

[dentalplan]

Um, I just stumbled upon this (long) review of Reading 2013 whilst taking a rare dip into the snarky underworld of Drowned in Sound to check the AM review. Don't think it's been posted yet but I found it somewhat interesting.

I'm playing showbiz just now for the first time in ages. It's still fucking amazing. They might spoil things if they try and replicate it. They should just stop now whilst people still like them and remember how good they were. They can do a Citizen Erased tour first tough

[mrtourette]

Yeah I never went much on Showbiz, just sounded like a new band trying to find. their sound and when they did and were more confident they came out with the amazing OOS. I think Showbiz gets more praise than it should as it's their debut album and therefore was better because all of the mainstream fans didn't know of them at the time, or some shit like that. It's like when people try and tell you they prefer Gish to Siamese Dream, yeah alright mate, of course you do.

agreed, thought I don't think Black Holes can be faulted really. Starlight is potentially my favourite Muse song,

[jump]

Is that gazza actually talking about music and not just the line ups of festivals?!?!?!!!?!!?!?!??!!?

[mrtourette]

At me or Yellow?

[Tobieski]

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is by far the best Pumpkins album, closely followed by Siamese Dream

[Com Truise]

"by far" "closely followed by"

[Tobieski]

Wait... Fuck

[mrtourette]

Yeah I prefer Mellon Collie as well, it isn't as consistent as Siamese Dream by the high points are higher.

[Tobieski]

I just think it's so diverse, where else would you find a song like 1979 next to a song like Tales Of A Scorched Earth

If they were rappers this would be a good thing - imagine Biffy and NIN writing "diss" tracks

[dentalplan]

I've heard that its true Reznor made no remarks or anything at Leeds but brought out a massive fury at Reading. There's so much wrong with this it's unreal. Firstly, it shows he couldn't give a shite about Leeds - why do a festival if you're not going to give it all you've got? Money, plain and simple.

[Babyquack]

the Biffy comment is what annoyed me the most because I thought the performance itself was brilliant

it's easily Biffy over NIN any day now
