Jesus Christ, the idiocy of some people is unbelievable. KOL are easily one of, if not THE greatest bands on the planet right now. Looking at your profile I see you are a yank so its not actually that surprising that you don't know shit about music. You can't even recognise your country's own best bands. I bet you think The Shins and Fleet Foxes are no good too don't you? And stumbeleine01, I've heard quite a few of the recent bootlegged tracks and they definitely don't have anything to worry about regarding how good the songs are. This band can do no wrong.

CinemaDan, Pink Floyrd don't need to sell anymore records, nor do they need the money at this stage in the game. If they were to reform it would be for the music only. I'd love to see them reform again. I know it wouldn't happen but it'd be brilliant if they performed DSOTM or Wish You Were Here in their entirety.

This is fantastic news, I had wondered when we might see a release date. I saw him perform it in Manchester last year and I can safely say its another masterpiece.

Gordon Smart is a complete wanker. He slags off Pete at every opportunity and thinks he's being 'cool' and funny. I hope Pete did throw mud at him or even better, gave him a black eye! Gordon, get over yourself you soft little gimp boy.

Interesting stuff, I hope he does it justice. Dennis was a genius. I'm fully expecting NME to give this album AT LEAST 9 out of 10 when it gets reissued. To score Pacific Ocean Blue anything less would be proposterus.

Who is this prick Ben Gibbard and what the fuck does he think he's talking about? DSOTM was almost entirely written by Waters aside from 'Speak To Me' which was written byNick Mason, and 'The Great Gig in the Sky' which is credited to Rick Wright.Death Cab For Cutie are shit and could only dream of writing an album such as 'Dark Side'

mAttthhheaLy, you clearly know nothing about music. Where the fuck do people get these Beatles comparisons from? Oasis do not, nor have they ever sounded like The Beatles. The only band that sounded remotely anything like them was the brilliant Cotton Mather.

50 Cent is a talentless wanker, why can't he just fuck off forever, the same goes for his 'gangsta' mates. All they do is encourage scally dickheads to think thay are hard. I completely agree with everything lovejoylovejoy has said. I hope he has to pay out a fortune.

The Who's Roger Daltrey: 'Weather to blame for Glasto downturn'

Last year's Sunday night headliner also criticises line-up and prices

Tue 08 Apr, 2008

Comments (1)

Soundedd - congratulations, you have just proven that you don't know the first thing about music! You really think The Verve are one hit wonders? Not only have they had more than one hit (not that it makes one blind bit of difference when refering to a band's talent) but they are also one of the best bands around period. Anyone that went to their live shows before Christmas will testify to that. And as for Kings Of Leon, what the fuck are you talking about? Calebs voice is just incredible, they are amazing musicians and they have quality songs. To call them crap is an absolute joke! You think last years line up was fabulous do you? Bloody hell, you really do know fuck all! The Killers are shite and Arctic Monkeys can't hold a candle to the likes of KOL and The Verve. You'd be doing yourself and everyone else a massive favour if you didn't bother going to any festivals, ever again.

GeeDub, what does the fact that the songs are 8 years old have to do with anything? Its NEIL YOUNG we're talking about here, of course the songs are gonna be good. Did you catch him on his recent tour, he was excellent and can 'milk' us all he wants! I just hope he tours with Crazy Horse again - and I hope the archives are released soon too!

Milburn to split

Arctic Monkeys' mates announce farewell gig

Tue 01 Apr, 2008

Comments (1)

I agree with all of the above. Its a massive shame that Milburn have decided to split. NME were stupid to slag them off so much, and for no good reason too. They were a great band and deserved miles more respect. The most ridiculous thing people said about them is that they copied off Arctic Monkeys, when in reality it was more like the other way round! Best of luck in whatever your future plans are lads.
