Here's their internet home.
Here's the link to my original, post-gig, happily pissed thread: drinks, arguments, some kitteh, photographs, Tony Wilson.
That thread was silly. This one is more about the actual music. There are various points we might pick up on in that thread, which I'm going to list here.
1) Me, asked if they were electro goodness:
Yes, yes. Kind of in the box with Justice/Spank Rock/Simian Mobile Disco ete, if you like that schtoof (you should).
See, I can really appreciate the great hair/untouchable coolness thing IF it's married to something quite new and exciting and not just sub-sub-Oasis drivel dirge. Libs etc = Oh wow, your jackets too small, your spending daddy's money on smack, wow. Whereas CC et al = Wow! There's been more keyboards and less guitars around MCR recently, so I've been a happy chap.
Feel free to pull any of that apart.
2) We talked about the blog 20 Jazz Funk Greats.
3) Flyboy said:
I honestly don't know if I like Hadouken, much in the same way Jez didn't know on Peep Show whether he had to take a bite of dead dog.
I know that I like My Chemical Romance, though.
Ex-Legba, why don't you start a Crystal Castles thread in the Music forum? Or I could just move this one there; I hardly think it's worth being fussy in times like these.
And then:
'Kick Out The Jams' is my favourite MCR song.
4) Later I said:
I will start a new CC thread in music, and we might have it involve other related stuff as well (as I think they probably function by reference to some sort of micro-scene thing, although I don't know).
So there we go. You lot start, I'll be back in a bit. |
