I went to see You Am I at the Newtown theatre last year and The Strokes were the support. hadnt heard about them before. They blew YAI off the stage. They were brilliant. Its a top album too.

[Tokenview]

I saw The Vines support You Am I at the Enmore last year and they were absoloutely shit
There songs were really slow and the drum kept doing the same fill in every song, mind you he isn't the drummer they have now, i wonder why? Hhehehe
they threw out demos into the crowd, they again were shit and i threw it out
If i had hung onto it i could've made a bundle on Ebay

hehe jaymz i was at that show too.. we didn't go in til near the end of the vines' set, but i liked them a little, i could see they had some potential, even if the drummer couldn't keep a beat, like you said. i tried to grab as many demo's as possible, but only ended up with 3. i have one left and i'm selling it on ebay soon pity the vines totally suck shit now.

Now what's that supposed to mean exactly..?

[*red_handed*]

hello
this is my first postTEXT
the last CD i bought was muse- showbiz. I have had a copy of it for two years now and it has long since become my favourite.
The next CD will be Origin Of Symmetry for the same reason, also by muse, and after that I actually want the new silverchair, give it a go, for old times sake =)
love from claire

You Am I tour last May with Eskimo Joe & The Vines - I think they made it to Perth, can't be sure as a little intoxicated at the time but the first act which would have been them was awful, even with alccohol - I do recall that much. Will see them in Sept and am hoping it wasn't them I saw previously and if it was hope they have greatly improved live as the album is a corker

[Tokenview]

the rumours are true, The Vines suck live
its cool to be shit in England right now. My sis lives there and she can't take the new wave movement, its driving her insane!!
Can anyone else say they saw them
maybe i just caught them on a bad night
but anyone can scream their balls off and play out of time

the vines suck.

as do the strokes, white stripes, the hives and any of those new 'saviours of rock' type bands.

[sam]

I couldn't agree more. I heard The Hives were actually manafacture, which made me angry.
I do find The Vines tolerable though.

[bossman]

Ah the old saviours of rock tag, almost as old as rock itself. I seem to recall a certian person getting that title way back in '74 so nothing has changed. When will the music press realise that rock doesn't need saving. These bands are pretty good though but the music isn't groundbreaking or original stuff. Its hard to see the Hives being manufactured and being signed to a Swedish punk label.

Anyway back to the point of this thread, I got the UK 7inch of Sweetness the other day. Quite a nice find

word to that. there's plenty of bands who don't need a major label to give them their shirts and ties and stupid haircuts to 'save' rock if it ever needed saving.

i got that a few weeks ago... love 'clarity' live b-side

well i must suck, because i like all of those bands.
and i couldn't gave a fuck what label's been attached to them. i agree that the 'saviours of rock' thing is annoying, but really, just because some stupid music reviewers have decided to attach that ridiculous cliche to a couple of bands doesn't mean people have to boycott them all because of it..i'm not saying everyone does that, but yeah..people do. and it shits me in a big way.

i don't claim that these bands are the best thing i've ever heard, or the most original, or saving rock. but i do like them. a lot. and some of them can even cut it live...i know i was really fucking impressed with the white stripes at big day out, and i've heard nothing but raves reviews from some friends overseas about black rebel motorcycle club's live performances. and the strokes are rad. so just because they're over-hyped doesn't make them any less talented or whatever. it mightn't be yr cup of tea, and that's fine, but fuck listening to what the media has called them or portrayed them as.

oh, and the hives aren't manufactured.
and they've got two other albums out, veni vidi vicious and barely legal, along with the newest one, that date back to '97 or whatever. so yeah, check em out.
