There must be a common denominator. Germany = high cheekbones, cowboy hats, sneering dismissal and sunglasses.

dear oh dear. identikit sisters sounds with weedy guitars and a singer who tries so hard that he isnt actually able to let loose - he's too studied and self-consciously von-esque. there's no "him" in there. no power or feeling. he cannot howl or scream.
they're s**t.
pale empress? pale wanker more like.
What’s the difference between a buffalo and a bison?
There's some life, not much though... too studied and self-consciously von-esque - definitely!Quiff Boy wrote:with all the life sucked out of them.pandemon wrote:a band with a sound like SoM...

I downloaded some of their stuff a while back, and haven't yet listened to enough of it to discern whether they are great or complete cack.

I'm in complete agreement with Erudite on this one - compared to the Sisters' amphetamine fuelled rock 'n' roll, Rosetta Stone churned out Nescafe-fuelled jingles, lacking in any power, passion or meaning.Erudite wrote:Oddly in accord with my opinion of Rosetta Stone.Quiff Boy wrote:with all the life sucked out of them.pandemon wrote:a band with a sound like SoM...

Whoops, I've left it on the creaking heap of neolithic s**t I'm forced to call my workstation. According to The Boss, all this 'porn-surfing' is what's jiggered my machine.
And not the fact that it's running '98 without a service, overhaul, or defragment in the three years you've owned it? Shurely shome mishtake?

This is without a doubt the smartest thing I've ever seen written on this forum. It reflects THE WAY IT IS. There's no point in discussing them any further.
EDIT: Re: http://www.themerrythoughts.com/e/09mp.htm
Sweet fancy Moses, someone needs to cram a boot up the ass of this s**t. Or a gun.

Last band I can think of who sang about drugs and cheap sex as well as TSOM were Suede..
