That's true czuczu , especially when they did a full set of Joy Division tunes , like they did in Blackpool last August.

i don't actually care much who played in what sisters incarnation or on what tracks.

I never liked original version of temple of love, guitar sounds like a theme for Atari game. not that bombastic TOL '92 version is better, but at least guitar sounds proper.

The most controversial statement I have seen on HL in a long time.

when I listen to Under the Gun I find myself singing 'get ahead go figure go ahead pull my finger'.... no matter how hard I try not to.....

But the natural follow-up to/musical-inheritor of Closer isn't Movement, it's Power, Corruption & Lies.

IZ.

Totally agree - The Smiths were pure class, he is a pain in the ass musically speaking

Isn't your belief system supposed to be all-inclusive not just those who have the education to understand said symbol?


is that controversial??

I want a sticker that says:

F you
F your kids
F your politics
& F your religion!

Now that is controversial.

Sorry, but I find the whole of Lulu to be s**t

bangles wrote:New Order are better than Joy Division

Now that is a confession

How about this............

I am a RANGERS fan and think the whole notion of them being a new team while keeping the old records is a farce

PC&L is certainly my favorite NO album.

Very true. I have been a huge Metallica fan but this just sounded so self indulgent. Plus I hated the vocals. Horses for courses, as they say

@ Doktor Jeff, I haven't liked Metallica since ... and Justice for All

@ teh bidet boy, apart from Movement I like NO other albums of theirs

see wot I did there

I'm better than James at BBQs

No mirth from Mr. Blast?

I'm not that keen on Lulu apart from when she covered those Bowie songs - I guess that would be her top half.

But to be controversial...

Repatriate all the fuckin' Normans
They've been here nearly a 1000 years, they still own most of the land and the wealth
They have their own church and their own schools and speak their own language
They haven't really taken much effort to get themselves integrated
When they came over they didn't even have fuckin' passports and they certainly weren't invited
Deport them

In response to the original post (f**k knows where this thread has meandered since and I have no intention of finding out) the Simpsons and South Park are the reason why no-one under thirty bothers to vote and the Waltons should be a compulsory subject of the GCSE curriculum.

Brighter than a Thousand Suns is still the best Killing Joke LP. There, I said it.

Oh, I love Mozilla, Firefox and Thunderbird ... but this has me thinking ... ...

I'm a little conflicted about that to be honest. I agree that it's horrible that Brendan Eich gave money to the anti-marriage-equality movement; I can understand why some folk want to boycott, but as far as I can tell, Mozilla's revenue stream would not be at all affected by me refusing to use their products. Also Mozilla have, in response to the negative publicity, reaffirmed their commitment to anti-discrimination and LGBT issues.
