    Lindemann has released their first single, with debut album coming out next week..
    Side project of Till Lindemann (singer of Rammstein) and Peter Tägtgren (just about everything in Hypocrisy)..
    The first minute of the song, I couldn't work out if it was a massive pisstake or what, hahaha..

    Oh yeah, I should probably warn that if you have lots of kids, don't have a sense of humour, or are offended easily, then probably shouldn't watch/listen to it..

    Dillinger Escape Plan have announced a quick tour in August..
    Playing in Sydney on August 29..
    One of the most energetic and insane bands to see live.. (although the crazy live performance can come at a bit of a cost of sound, haha)

    I don't understand the love for Rammstein. The theatrics are little more than a smoke screen to cover up just how poor they are as musicians.

    They did an ok cover of the old Kraftwerk song the model - but that's about it for me.

    .
    When I was a wee lad they played BDO, I'd nowt heard much of their stuff but my mate was all like "they are a bit of a show", then within 10sec of the first song old mate has set himself on fire and was giving it the big ones.

    Can't remember much else* but yeah it was a good show.

    *I'd had a wee bit too much acid though, I remember getting emotional during a Coldplay song.

    Yeah I was at that show too (minus the acid. hahaha), their live shows with all the pyrotechnics/fake phallus', etc were immense..


    I guess you could call it a gimmick, a show, whatever.. From a musicians point of view, their songs could be considered quite simple, however they still write extremely catchy songs.. (They aren't exactly being labeled as tech-metal, haha)
    Its all subjective.. Nirvana's songs are rock-bottom basic but I wouldn't say they were sh!t..

    Musicality aside, I've also got plenty of respect for a band who can be around for 20+ years, and have the original and same 6 guys for the entire time..

    So does the guy from Frenzal Rhomb?

    https://www.facebook.com/FrenzalRhom...type=1&theater

    Drummer tried to stage dive and didn't quite make it to the crowd! Ouch.


    Also in regards to Dillinger Escape Plan, i'll back up Bon's claims. Saw them at Soundwave whilst waiting for someone else and had my socks blown off within about 10 secs of them walking on stage. Never witnessed so much intensity from a live band before or since.

    catching up on some new releases today

    didn't have much hope for the new Foals album because i thought the singles were a bit generic. have to say it's actually pretty good and is probably just behind Total Life Forever (my fav and their best) on first listen.

    now onto Beach House's new one - which has the lamest name ever - Depression Cherry. unsurprisingly it's great; they're one of the best going around for me, if you're into that sort of thing i guess. their sound hasn't changed much but they don't really need to.

    also spun the new FKA Twigs ep. she's a goddess. love it.

    new Dre is pretty sweet too.

    spotify is amazing. i need to upgrade to premium but every time i try it comes up with a blank window for some reason :'(
