been trying to reply for ages but my posts don't seem to be going through.

 

You are correct and the other is 'Ordinary'.

 

Love 'Loose Ends' and 'Don't Make it Right'

I also saw Boy Kill Boy somewhere in Sheffield (maybe The Leadmill). Less enjoyable. Oh the early 2000's, such mediocrity. 

I saw Boy Kill Boy in Portsmouth - was given a cup of water by one the security at the cup and I for some reason thought it was a great idea to throw it on the stage - hit the lead singer square in the jaw. He didn't even flinch and I was promptly thrown out by some burly bouncer. Pretty much my only memory of that band, don't remember any of their songs.

And as Late of the Pier have been mentioned, does anyone remember Shy Child? They even played a Keytar!

I think it was the Late Of The Pier gig where that band who was Hermione's boyfriend was the support.

One Night Only? What a terrible act they were!

[HoTWire]

I just took one for the team and listened to Late Of The Pier .. it is still magnificent.

Listening to Does It Offend You Yeah?'s first album, is actually not as bad as I imagined, they were always better live though, louder, rougher.

Metro Station anyone?

New alt-J coming in January, so that's another to add to the disappointing-options-for-Pyramid-subs-or-Other-headliners-deacreasing-the-chances-of-something-great-like-Frank-Ocean-or-Nick-Cave-or-The-National, along with Elbow, Royal Blood and Paolo Nutini.

yeah seem like an obvious Pyramid sub or Other headliner candidate. in fact, subbing Radiohead makes total sense (although maybe too much so)

Don't want to get my hopes up in case it turns out not to be true, but fucking hell, who saw that coming ey?

that's more like it! favourite one from the new album yet - sounding more like the first album. goddamn i hope they've been booked for the festival (and don't clash with anybody major)

I certainly like the other two but this is by far the best yet.

i was initially a little disappointed with the other two but they've grown on me, whereas this one is fantastic straight off the bat. gonna go off live!

Loving the new Justice track. Are they too big to headline Sonic? Similar slot to Leftfield?

definitely too big for that i'd have thought. West Holts (hopefully) or John Peel headliner

[Tommy101]

Either would do for me a decent dance about. Preferably on Sat so no clash with RH and still have some energy left in my legs.

[mjsell]

If my Daft Punk dream is dead in the water the Justice is the next best option. Have half seen them already but would go all out for them this time.

New song is a cracker. Their live album is second only to Alive 2007 in the dance/dj stakes imo.

Whats new out today thats worth a listen?

I'm still of the opinion Justice can take a Other Headline slot.

I'm quite enjoying the Saint Motel album. Never heard of them before this morning. How does everyone find out about new music these days? I don't really follow any publication/website reviews so just tend to see what stands out to me on www.albumoftheyear.org which has a handy album by release day/month thing.

[HoTWire]

That new Justice track is a monster.

I find http://www.anydecentmusic.com/ to be much better than albumoftheyear. It's more written by a team and less crowd-sourced, although for that reason it requires more work and may not be around much longer.

Mentioned by @T-Mouse in the 2017 Wish List thread, the new record by DD Dumbo is bloody excellent. Kind of Talking Heads/Dirty Projectors funky stuff.

Would be cracking on the Park or WH.
