Yeah, very impressed! Its a bit of a grower and took a few spins for it to really hit home but I find that these type of albums tend to have more longevity than those which tend to blow u away straight off! Can't argue with the comparisons made my Plopdeck either ;- July for Kings / Familiar 48 with subtle yet undeniable "Bono-isms" abound! Well worth checking out if the modern AOR stuf

LOL! If this forum is anything to go by, we would be kicking the living shite out of each other in the street everytime a new album was reviewed! LOL! Imagine that!

No knives, guns or steel toe capped boots!" And Go

It took me approximately 2 seconds to decide to surrender my Evanescence ticket! LOL! No contest in my opinion! Is it deffo going to be an electric set though? Just kinda intrigued as to where they r gonna set up! LOL! Or r they going to set up on the dance floor for a sort of quadrilateral "in the round" experience! HEHE! Gav

All I can say is FUCKING AWESOME! Acoustic, stripped, unusual, funny, and altogether FANTASTIC! Shame about the timing @!#$ up coz there r several people I know who would have been there had it not been 4 the mooted start time of 8pm! These things cant be helped I guess! Basically one of the most talented groups of musicians u could ever hope 2 see! PHENOMENAL! Gav!

Ok Ok I know this has been talked about already but I only got my copy today so I didn't feel I could intelligently contribute to the previous threads. I have played this thru about 5 or 6 times so far and first impressions have left me wondering what it is about this band that pisses me off! Everyone talks about "Mood Swings" as being the ultimate Scarem album (it probably is) but for

Interesting points! I agree with pb that the sales r more than likely reflective of a nostalgia trip than of a sincere interest in all things AOR. I mean the sort of people who buy TV advertised compilations are not the hardcore enthusiasts that frequent this board or have a genuine interest in the scene! I cant see many of these buyers buying the new Scarem album or being interested any new band

The most instantly noticeable things about Prague are the stunning architecture, the ridiculously cheap beer (around 60p a pint!) and the way the prostitutes accost u in the street. It is a truly remarkable place! Beware of taxis, they r out to rip u off! Go to Caffeys in the old square and ask them to phone u one!

I don't think its possible to have a Top Ten of all time coz moods and tastes change and of course, very occasionally, a new album comes out that gets straight to the heart! Also, it's hard to remember everything that ever moved u! I will have a go though!

Now I have finally sobered up I was wondering, is the first Friday of the month still AOR/Melodic rock night? Despite my appalling state, I couldnt help but notice that the music was, on the whole, absolutely SHITE last Friday. I know there have been rumours but does anyone actually know if it is the intention to turn this night into a pile of festering plop every month? If it does, I think my al

Fraid to say I was very disappointed with this record! Just sounds like a second rate Bonjovi covers band with forced "nu" style vocals! Pretty damn poor! Sorry! :o( Gav
