    Iran and Aggressive Gliberal Posturing

    How tiresome it must be to have to actually support your arguments with some evidence... I'd forgotten that yours is the law that must be obeyed. Silly me. Christ, you really are a total twat, aren't you? I didn't think it was possible for your behaviour to be any more childish than it has been...

    Why Conspiracy Theories?

    Oh, that's easy - the US Government actively encouraged alien abduction / UFO / 'visitors' etc from the 1950s onwards to help conceal the development of secret plane technology (U2 / Blackbird / Stealth thru to crazy saucer-shaped aircraft). Also, and this is a total aside: I read the other...

    Why Conspiracy Theories?

    Sorry, sherief, I didn't mean to turn your thread into another 9/11 discussion. I'll be quiet now :)

    Why Conspiracy Theories?

    Sorry, but this is exactly the kind of shoddy logic that brings those (like yourself) who ask serious questions about what really happened that day into disrepute. The US Government decides not to release information, and that's proof of their prior involvement?! And if it wasn't them, it can't...

    Why Conspiracy Theories?

    This is definitely true. I think the real story behind 9/11, in particular, is one of gross negligence at several different levels - a total lack of awareness at the top, leading to fuck all readiness at the bottom, which in turn exagerrated the confusion on the ground. And much of what follows...

    Why Conspiracy Theories?

    Come late to this, so pretty much everything I think about conspiracy theories and theorists has already been said. But thought I'd throw this link into the pot: Centre for Conspiracy Culture at Winchester Uni (UK). If you're interested in the whys-and-wherefores of conspiracy theories, it's a...

    Music Mags

    Yeah, but imagine if they actually had something interesting to say ;) Besides, Tiga in OMM - Idon'tthinksosomehow... (Cue someone posting a scan of their Tiga cover story)

    Music Mags

    Having been looking (in vain) for a decent printed magazine ever since Jockey Slut folded, I picked up issue 1 of a magazine called Dummy when I was in Sister Ray on Friday night. And it's actually pretty good! Not least for its eclectic coverage of everyone from Goldfrapp to Test Icicles, Tiga...

    new isht... what's got you excited in music lately?

    Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... just having a listen to some snippets of this now. Nice tip. Top hole. Currently caning the last J Dilla LP in honour of his untimely demise (not too mention Audio One's wicked tribute mix - thanks to Droid for that one). And the Matias Aguayo LP, also propped somewhere...

    You might want to have another listen to Coco Rosie, as well, if you haven't already. Lush.

    the Change of Heart Thread

    Chilli Gonzales. He was on the cover of Spex magazine about 6 years ago, dressed in a bright pink suit. Whatacunt, I thought. This was when I was enamoured with the anonymity of dance culture, and was obviously offended by the temerity of this flamboyant Canadian and what he was doing to "my"...

    Why doesn't anyone here like 'indie' music anymore?

    Come off it - that's just lazy. There are plenty of dance music acts that cut it live, and there have been for yonks: from Prince to Orbital, Matthew Herbert to Jamie Lidell.

    Why doesn't anyone here like 'indie' music anymore?

    Ummmm... Dodge how? My point is: people just don't speak like that anymore - at least not like this guy was. Doesn't matter if they're white/black/mixed race/whatever. Sorry if this observation offends anyone.

    Why doesn't anyone here like 'indie' music anymore?

    I don't think that's strictly true; I think you're eliding 2 points here. It seems to me that they're being dissed not because they're popular, but because they're being touted as 'real music'. And, while they're undoubtedly good musicians (and I gather they're great live), their music is just...

    Smoking Ban

    I just read that the House of Commons bar(s) are, of course, exempt from this ruling, because the Houses of Parliament count as a royal palace. I think that's what makes this legislation a bit too difficult to swallow for me. Whatabunchofcunts.

    guardian article on the death of british black music

    I dunno. I reckon her particular kind of vocal inflection could really do justice to "The Camera Never Lies" ;)
