Isn't it amazing how much completely trivial stuff lurks on Wkipedia.

The second track on the album, "These Colours Don't Run" is about being a soldier in the war zone. According to lead singer Bruce Dickinson in an interview with Kerrang! magazine; "the song was an effort to put a human face on people who go out and fight wars. They call it 'peacekeeping', but these people put themselves in harm's way, and whether or not you agree with the reasons why they're doing it, they're just doing their job". Drummer Nicko McBrain, told Rhythm magazine the title was inspired by the incident with Sharon Osbourne during a US tour, when Sharon and friends threw eggs at Iron Maiden during their performance: "I can't remember verbatim what he [bruce] said, but he hurled a load of abuse and said, "These colours don't ###### run", meaning we weren't gonna leave the stage."

I've just put my 11 year old genius to bed where she has be listening to "Country Girl" by Primal Scream from "Now That's What I Call Music Volume 46."

One of the most recent CDs I bought was "Riot City Blues" by Primal Scream.

You've just got to be a Dad to appreciate it...................

Pure bliss, if only she would appreciate The Bonzos I would be a happy man.

Warning! To anyone who liked the first Kasabian album... the difficult second album is ...er .. difficult (sh*t)!

Special mention to M use for producing a great album. It's (90's)Radiohead meets Queen, and it works in an overblown pompous way!

Agreed. No Swagger anymore. I have listened to it and listened to it trying really hard to make myself like it but I cant

I am soo glad I got a refund on my tickets to see them.

I've heard some of the new Kasabian stuff and I have to say I don't like it. The debut was brilliant, so I think I'll be sticking to that.

[cletus]

Hmmm....yeah, I`ve given the new Kasabian album a few listens, & i`ve got to say it`s not jumping onto my cd player anymore. I`ll give it another listen in a week or so, just to see if it`s a 'grower'.

[Rovermatt]

Just bought Seth Lakeman's new album Freedom Fields. Brilliant stuff-a nice modern take on traditional English folk music.

[cletus]

traditional English folk music.

I`ve got 3 albums by Kate Rusby. Fantastic English folk singer & a tad Milfy

[Flopsy]

you're obsessed with Milf's - dear god have a cold shower - and she aint that old

[American]

There's this Milf in my office. We've been packing to move and it's interesting walking past her area watching her bend over to put stuff in boxes.

[Radagast]

I saw Anathema on Tuesday night - great gig by a perpetually under-the-radar band I'm just getting into. They started as a Doom/Death Metal band before moving onto something a lot more epic and melodic on their third album and eventually ending up as sort of Radiohead like alt-rock act. Whatever you want to call them, its great stuff; very melancholy and uplifting. Also they closed with a cover of Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt, if you know what I mean. Which was nice.

Tell me about it, it's an unrelenting rehash of 70's Glam rock @#/?! (glam rock not a genre i care for) although it might appeal to some people.

[Radagast]

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly

Gragh. If I see another band/artist with an oh-so-cute name like this (see: you Say Party! We Say Die!, Help! She Can't Swim etc) I think my head might actually explode.

[Billy Castell]

I effing hate emo.

[Rovermatt]

Emo kids are now the new ruling class outside City Hall. They really are a bunch of pretentious, inane fools. 'Oh, I'm so depressed. I hate my life. My daddy's a QC and I live in Malone Park. Yet I still feel obliged to affect an air of resigned defeat in life and wander through the streets with my equally aimless mates (all of whom, funnily enough, look the same)'

He/they are actually really good though, acoustic guitar with beats and occasional other instruments, little disappointed with what i heard of larrikin love

Still loving the futureheads news and tributes and maximo park too

[American]

Saw the Rolling Stones last night. What a show.

Kanye West opened and was amazing as well.

It depends what you mean when you say 'electro' ?

I like a bit of Depeche Mode, OMD, Nine Inch Nails, Flock of Seagulls.....if that`s what you class as 'electro'.

[Blueandwhitemike]

Checkout the secret machines myspace site

It has the three best songs off their new album and the best song off their first album

All for free, good band

Bit rash getting rid of the tickets!

I think the new Album is Quality!

Off on a bit of a tangent but type 'Blackburn Warehouse Party' into youtube search for a bit of rave nostalgia...
