[kj] OT: Editors

[ade]

Now that's a good point. Luckily they have much more going for them than
this recent spate of post-punk spurts. Otherwise I wouldn't be listening...

  They're called Ministry.

  After all these Joy Division/gang of 4 "inspired" groups, How long till
there's a 1st Album Killing Joke clone group that's what I want to know

  It's like in the 1960 when you got all these British groups doing rubbish
covers of Muddy Waters songs and called brilliant and selling loads because
everyones too lazy to check out the orginals...

    The weird thing is, I've been obsessed with the post-punk era for a long
time now & it's close to my heart - you'd have thought I'd be happy to hear
all these bands trying to sound like JD, Bunnymen, etc, etc. But really, I
couldn't be more unimpressed/angry! Just hope someone will go buy Unknown
Pleasures off the back of some sh!tty Editors/Interpol post-punk-by-numbers
tripe.

      While I actually like that Futureheads, Ade's right about most of
these bands -- they're mostly "the odd good moment," but absolutely no
staying power.

      I quite like the odd Kasabian tune, though I've not listened at length
yet. They do a convincing effort at StoneRoses/Primals. I heard that
Futureheads sh!t-stain cover of Hounds of Love & just fukkin' *KNEW* I'd
hate them forever. And the Bravery.

      I think the majority of these bands are doing the exact same thing -
embarassing & tiresome rip-offs with the odd good moment...

        I felt same way with Kasabian  - a very poor man?s Charlatans??

        ive gone the other way. I dont know how to describe it other than to
say its too complicated , it just doesn't sit well. Got deleted from the
iPod the other week.

Futueheads CD quite a few months ago and it really didn't do anything for
me. Then I saw them support the Pixies and thought they were really good
live and since the CD has really warmed on me.
