Luke Vibert in his various aliases, guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

 

First heard of him when I bought "Big Soup" on MoWax, a brilliant album!

I've had a soft spot ever since.

Then I discovered he's from the same place as most of my family.

:cool:

The Wildhearts - Chutzpah!

 

Can't decide yet.. I mean, it's less eye-widening than "Endless Nameless" and less poptastic than "....Must Be Destroyed", but it's lacking something. It's not as hard as "The Wildhearts", not as R'N'R as "P.H.U.Q", "Riff After Riff" and "Earth Vs..." but it's not innovative either. Some of the songs are great, some are too formulaic and some just sound like covers of any American rock band's B-sides.

 

I'm sure it'll grow on me more as I play it relentlessly on the iPod.

 

 

 

 

PS. I'm aware that this review was really only informative to Pancake.

Yes yes and thrice yes dear sir. Its an odd one to say the least. A couple of songs are total WH-AOR-pop: "The Only One" and "...New York", the former actually being on of my faves so far. Not keen on "...New York" as its the type of throw-away Ginger track he was knocking out as his "Singles Club" stuff back in '01. "The Jackson Whites" and "Mazel Tov ****tail" are awesome tracks that will be on repeat a lot I think. "Tim Smith" and the title track are as close as we get to riff-tastic epic this time, not bad but both too short! Im pretty sure "John Of Violence" was nicked from Green Day (I jest, natch).

 

You downloaded "The Snake, The Lion, The Monkey and The Spider" from their official site yet? The unofficial "Track 11" from the album. Plus there are 4 extra tracks on the Jap. version, including the full version of "Zeen Requiem" that I sent you the bootleg of earlier in the year. Not sure when they are getting a UK release, but Ive got the Jap. version on order so should be hear soon.

I didn't download SLMS but I listed to the stream (assuming it would be on the album - perhaps I should read more closely) and thought it was great, in a lol way ("f***ing, crazy b***ard" and monkey noises should be included in every song IMO) and will be downloading it tonight.

 

Where have you ordered the Japanese release from, out of interest?

Well after watching a few episodes of Game On, from the link I left on The Office thread, I decided to actually listen to Where I find My Heaven by the Gigolo Aunts. Nice bit of pop, and a cracking beginning to each episode of Game On. But here's the whole song, and a little video of Harrison Ford flying aeroplanes [airplanes to him, no doubt]:
