Paid Members Jazzy G Posted September 13, 2021 Paid Members Posted September 13, 2021 There's a really good 12 minute remix of Animal Army that he did as well. The Arthur Plays With Animals remix. I had the 12" with a couple of remixes of Spaceman on the B-side. One of them had the whole song sped up. I think it was the "Touched by the Zupervarians" mix?

No No No" by Girls Aloud but that intro is on a completely different level to the rest of the song, brilliant stuff. The intro is awesome but that whole song is fantastic in my eyes. One of their best and certainly most underated. The whole thing thunders along at 130 bpm. I wish their still was British girl groups putting out stuff as bonkers as this.
deathrey Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 The song title is a bit shit though. I'm assuming they didn't go with 'No, No, No' because of the Destiny's Child song but it was a better name.

Never dreamed Stourbridge would get a mention outside the football threads. Went to college there and had my first proper job there. Bit of a nothing town but that’s the West Midlands. Got into my head Jas was from Wolverhampton so consider me ambivalent to learn he called Stourbridge home if that’s the case. Although even pretending to be from Wolvo would be glamorous in comparison.

I remember reading in one of the music mags that Mann was from Wolverhampton too, so I found it a bit odd when Hannibal called him a posho.

If any of those three were playing, Sandkings were more than likely supporting so they always got lumped in with that scene.
RancidPunx Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 “Miseria Cantare” by AFI as a song never delivers on it’s great intro… Once the vocals start at 1:35, it’s all downhill from there
Keith Houchen Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 I think you’ve posted the wrong link. That one is missing the great intro.

Daaaaaad! Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Thirty or so seconds of lightning quick electric keyboard promises so much and delivers… well, nothing really. I was surprised to discover this had actually been a Bravery single at all.

I was surprised to discover this had actually been a Bravery single at all. It’s a difficult vocal performance to get behind, for sure. I really like all other aspects of that song, but then it’s from the small window of time that I was relatively up on “new” bands n’stuff. I don’t think I’ve ever heard or seen The Bravery mentioned anywhere since about 2006, apart from dusting off my mp3s of this and “honest mistake” now and then.
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted September 14, 2021 Paid Members Posted September 14, 2021 I really struggle with his vocals on a lot of their stuff. But this one which I think goes downhill as soon as he starts singing
Paid Members BigJag Posted September 15, 2021 Paid Members Posted September 15, 2021 Awesome intro on this. Would also double as a Roman Reigns theme. As his hair came undone during the recent altercation with Lesnar.

Gets a pass for being used for that seasons Football Focus theme. It’s no Stand Back by Linus Loves instrumental, however.
