Joss Whedon used to put great music in Buffy. I got into Bif Naked, Alison Krauss, Four Star Mary, K's Choice, Guided By Voices and Black Lab courtesy of just one soundtrack album!

Brent - it's probably Satch's most melodically commercial album since the Extremist, and almost feels like a more mature, laid back sequel to that album. It isn't anything new, and doesn't rock as hard as earlier efforts - but still has a few crazy genre bending moments! It's just all about the melody, with some great tunes that feel loose, relaxed and don't descend into over long noodling. Fi

I thought Coverdale was good value, a larger than life character with a chunky dose of exaggerated eccentricity who handled the abysmal interview well. He must have wondered why bother turning up for a paltry few minutes, when the idiots questioning him seemed more interested in his bloody hair than the current tour with Journey and Thunder. Oh, and his hearing too. Not to mention referring to

According to Reb he has to dye his hair as Coverdale has said: "There will be no grey snakes in this band!"

Bauer is an undiluted bad ass!! I've just started on Season 5 as I'm a little behind. Great show though, completely ott but fantastic at creating and manipulating tension. Just a thought; shouldn't the new series be called 12?

Ha ha - just got it on right now. Been listening to this all week actually and agree with you 100%! I defy anyone not to tap their foot or bang their head to it. I've actually been debating with myself about it's validity considering how derivative it is. My conclusion? They're not trying to reinvent the wheel and there's little validity in getting too pseudo intellectual about them, they'r

Funny you should say that. I felt exactly the same about the debut back in the day. It was only a couple of years ago I revisited it and found it to be much, much stronger than I remembered. Still prefer Slave in theory, although I haven't listened for a while so may have to dig it out. From what I remember I think all the songs are very strong, bar Get The Fuck Out and the cringe inducing Cr

I really love the debut too, but I do find it a bit cheesier. Slave To The Grind just felt like a big fuck you to anyone and anything. That said, I was in my teens when I fell in love with it, which may explain my position! Perfect timing really :-)

moving pictures wrote: "It was an inevitability, sadly. The way the modern game works almost every manager is 5 or 6 bad results away from the sack." Actually, I just heard something on Sky Sports News that almost defies belief: In 3 and a half years at Man City, Mancini never once visited their youth academy. I find that utterly disgusting.

Agreed - I heartily disagree with the other gents. The definitive Skid Row album for me.

Maybe he'll speak in a lower voice and have Doug, Reb and Michael with him to take the higher bits.

I'm wondering if the interview will be live, or pre-recorded so his voice can be fixed in the studio to iron out any flaws....

And what about the Northern Dave that you can hear talking to the audience on late 70's live tracks, or has he well and truly left the building?

What a difference a year makes eh? Whilst there are clearly issues there as he's apparently deeply unpopular with the players, it's a really shitty way of handling the situation. He doesn't even get one last home game for the fans to thank him for what he's achieved. Shows a lack of class from those in charge, he deserved more respect after winning the league last year imo. That said, wit

Yeah defo flat on the chorus. I liked the piano intro (probably because it's identical to the original!) and thought they might continue in that direction and make a kind of gothic, moody ballad out of it. I reckon they could have pulled that off better, instead of the hollow bombast approach.
Forum: Noticeboard

I've always been a big fan of Garbage, but this cover just lacks something for me. I like the haunting piano intro, but the chorus just doesn't have the uplifting power and emotional wallop of Bruce's version - even though they certainly put a lot of energy into it and give it a slightly different spin. What do others think? GARBAGE - BECAUSE THE NIGHT And yeah - I know, it's officially

Great album - but where's the review? When I click on CD reviews it's not there and they haven't been updated. The one at the top is still the Stryper album.

Blizzard of Ozz for me, although I also love No More Tears as it was my intro to Ozzy as a solo artist. Plus, Zakk's playing on the title track is awesome. And I may be in the minority, but I thought Scream was a cracking album. So there :-)

Surely the only legitimate use of the term is when bands have actually sold music because of their hair. In which case Bon Jovi have to be the ultimate, as many believed Jon's haircut circa 'Keep The Faith' saved the bands career. Ironic, as he didn't actually look like a 'hair metal' star any more. Either way it's always been a term used to slander and belittle the music we love. As if hair

I don't think any club in their right mind would touch Mourinho. True, he guarantees success - but the problems caused by his arrogance, petulance and ego have destroyed many a club's reputation. It doesn't bother Chelsea - as their reputation is already shit! I think United have been put off by all the behavioural problems he brings. Liverpool were the same and were close to appointing him
