Currently Listening To...Imminent Sonic Destruction!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

By sheer coincidence

BOWIE - DIAMOND DOGS

A wonderful album especially when one thinks it is bits of three different projects stuck together

sounds as good as it did when i first heard it 33 years ago (12th birthday present.)
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Enjoying the Autumn mornings with this..

EDIT - Only without the Rolf Harris bits. Yes, it was recorded before, Kate didn't know, can't re-write history yadda yadda. I just happen to feel uncomfortable hearing his voice.

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

You think so? Fair enough.
I've been waiting for a good album since Low Life (which was also seriously lyrically rubbish) & was hoping this was it.
Not even Iggy could save this pile of dog's eggs unfortunately :(

I agree with the excellence comment although maybe not with the Hooky bit. Certainly their best since Technique.

I'm with you guys (not you Pista :wink: ) and I really dig this new album!
Glad to hear some classic New Order sounds, but fresh enough to not sound like it was made in 88. The only mistake (BAM) is the last track with that bloke from The Killers... well, I'll just have to scratch that track I guess.

The only Cure albums you need IMO.

Totally digging it.
