What's HOT - What's NOT
Big Audio Dynamite and Duran Duran are on my list. Also PJ Harvey. She has a new album coming out in early 2011 (i've heard February). I wonder what stage she'll play?
OFF! A reunion of sorts, or better, a reconfiguration of classic punk icons: Read it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off!_%28band%29 Listen here: http://www.offofficial.com/
man, I hated Duran Duran in 1983, and I still hate them today. Big Audio Dynamite. Wire. Titus Andronicus.
Wire! I gotta research this group. It's notable how many groups now sound like something from the past. Tame Impala reminds me of Cream.
Wire: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_%28band%29 Some of this sounds familiar. A friend of mine had the "Chairs Out" album (1978).
"Chairs Missing" their first 3 albums are great. after that, I have no idea.
Thanks for the correction Tom! Have you followed Suede, or London Suede, or whatever they call them now?
I was shocked but happy to see BAD on the poster! Titus Andronicus and PJ Harvey are also on my list. I'm still doing my homework.
I had Suede's first album. It never did anything for me and I put it aside after only a few listens. I ought to go back and give it another try now and see if my opinion has changed.
