Alan_C Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 I really liked Doom & Gloom. If they can write some more songs like that, I would be very interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danceable and joyful Saw them play at Glastonbury one and a half times this year. I decided I'd been in front of the pyramid far too much this year, so eschewed Beck in favour of seeing Boxed In in my new favourite place the Crows Nest. It was wonderful, a couple of handfuls of people dancing with the gusto and joy that people have at Glastonbury. I was so so happy. I chatted with them after, lovely people. Then knowing it was all over soon, I just sat on one of the chairs there, just looking out over the festival, with a few tears in my eyes. But yeah, Boxed In are super. I like that mate. Right up my street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 I know this won't be out until this thread title is out of date but the Gorrillaz hypemobile is gaining momentum: http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/10/gorillaz-kick-off-phase-four-with-the-book-of-noodle/ Looking forward to seeing what direction they take this one in.

I suspect a single will be out before the end of the year. I was pretty annoyed nothing immediately followed the hype build up from last week when they went through all the phases on social media then just stopped. Personally, I have very, very little interest in Jamie's artwork - what I want is new music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted October 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Listened that Banks album this week, not that impressed really. Just sounds like a blend of loads of stuff Pitchfork loves; little bit of Kanye, little bit of Grimes, some Sia and quite a lot of FKA Twigs. All that aping on the production a d arrangements might be OK if the tunes were decent, but they're all pretty boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was OK but not something I'll be revisiting I expect. So much good music out at the moment that an album has to be an 8/10 on first play otherwise it will be cast aside!

Quark Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 So just for comedy value.....anyone heard the new Robbie Williams track? Had it on the new music playlist from Deezer in the car this morning; nearly crashed I was laughing so much. It's not a strong effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it can be summed up just from the chorus: Party like a Russian End of discussion Dance like it got concussion, oh Put a doll inside a doll Party like a Russian Disco seduction Party like a Russian, oh Have it like an oligarch Poetry I tells ya.

FloorFiller Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 i'm usually a fan of Robbie/ridiculous pop songs but that new one is utter unlistenable shite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungo57 Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 I saw that Robbie had a new one out the other day when it was on in the ad break on Sunday Brunch. What a complete and total load of garbage. And that was only the 10-15 sec snippet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addicted2noise Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'm not sure the Robbie Williams song is really any worse than Millennium or Rock DJ to be fair, apparently he's back writing with Guy Chambers again so his new album could be his most successful for a while.

It's so much worse than both of them. His stuff around then at least had a bit to it, even if it wasn't Mercury winning material. Millenium had a good melody line, and while Rock DJ was lyrically a bit rubbish it had a decent bit of swagger to it. This new one is just a mess.

Mardy Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 All the Russians i've spoken to this week, none of them gave a fuck about it. Nobody is offended. There's a guardian article today trying to stir up a bit of controversy, but essentially it's a big bag of nuffin. It's a fairly dull witless song and banal video, devoid of any imagination, but nobody's going to start getting upset with RW about that now, are they? About 20 years too late for that.

addicted2noise Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Maybe he's trying the Shakermaker/Live Forever approach, first release a song of nonsense to stir up some controversy and lower expectations then release a belter.

FuzzyDunlop Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Robbie Williams - Pyramid Sub? 3rd Down? Even after posting that bilge he is still a big name. Ive only ever liked a few RW songs. "Strong" being the main one. This new one is a stinker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
