    Semi Final 2: The Stone Roses vs Doolittle

  6. The Shrimp Toothbrush

    Battle of the albums special! I've revived this thread as a salute to the albums that have made it through to the semi's! Oasis, Nirvana, The Pixies and of course, the MIGHTY Stone Roses have pushed aside the lumbering dinosaurs of The Beatles and Pink Floyd, the freak show that is Jackson, and...

    I've been waiting patiently for this one since the draw was made (all of two days :doh:) ... Genre's collide as do two of my favourite albums of all time, despite that you'd have to be Criminally Insane to not know which way my vote would go, but its up to you to decide the outcome ... The...

    This is what's appearing in an upcoming edition of the Basildon United programme. See if you can spot through the subtle clues the little known manager it refers to. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Arry...

    Just one letter of the alphabet....

    Bit of a twist on Desert Island Discs here. You're stuck on the proverbial desert island, but can only take music by artists all beginning with the same letter. So if you go for 'Q' that'd be, for example, Queen, Queens of the Stone Age, Queensryche and, erm, Eoghan Quigg. You're also limited...
  14. Zane Lowe Masterpieces - Rage Against The Machine

    Yes I know, Zane Lowe is a complete tw*t (could he be a late entrant for Battle of the Tools?!). However last night he played in full, Rage Against The Machines self-title album, as part of his Masterpieces series. I didn't listen to it last night, but have just blasted the album out in...
  15. Chinese Democracy

    If you think this is another bore-fest thread about politics, then leave! I'm going to stick my neck out here and say that after one listen through, Chinese Democracy is a pretty good album! Glimses of GnR at their best, but also it sounds like an album for the 2000's, Axl has done good! So...

    The Pain

    At 23 I should still be somewhere near the prime of my life. Still have all my hair, wrinkles do not concern me and a beer gut has not quite formed into its glory yet (although 7 months of travelling is helping it along its way). Friends, colleagues and people I just generally know older than me...
