And both lacking ‘soul’ (for want of a better term).

And stealing other people’s creativity.

Something I’m sure the musician posting AI ‘art’ would no doubt feel strongly about if it affected them!

Rant over :-)

Ha! It was my soundtrack whilst in Australia (along with Wilco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot) all those years ago :-)

Too many great songs out there, not enough time!!

But you’ve still got to keep trying :-)
December 6, 2025 at 1:55 PM
Ahead of their time!
December 6, 2025 at 1:09 PM
I think I might too but was being a purist :-)
December 6, 2025 at 12:54 PM
On that note here’s hoping for some Spiritualised!!! :-)

Haven’t done enough yet to verify that as a personal rule :-) but got the official result back and it was my quickest yet!!

Despite being aware of them forever I’ve only recently started listening to GBV. And wonder why I never have before. Really love what I’ve heard so far!

I’ve resisted NOT A TOKEN so far today because I’ve thought of loads but I’m very happy you succumbed to temptation 🤣

Amazing song

Arguably there are Kurt Wagner songs that are even more huglike but although this is more upbeat this one always makes me smile and I could just imagine feeling warm and comfy in front of a fire listening to it

It was a tough choice between the two of them :-)

Years ago I was on the other side of the world feeling lonely and sorry for myself. A couple of albums gave me comfort whenever I was feeling particularly in need of it- Deserters Songs being one of them. So …

Everyone is picking stuff or bands I’m thinking about :-)

For me it would be ‘Made Up Lovesong #43’ but this is great too
December 6, 2025 at 11:38 AM
Oh

That definitely would have factored into my thoughts at some point.

The whole of 3 eps just feels like a safe warm space
December 6, 2025 at 11:24 AM
Nice topic. Going to pace myself today and really think about this one!!

Great start too - could easily have been one of the two songs with exactly the same baseline too :-) (Killing Joke, The Damned (1st I think))

I never ever enjoyed running as a sole pursuit when I was younger unless it was a necessary part of another sport.

So I’m quite pleasantly surprised with myself to find myself enjoying it now.

I think I might have got close to 31 this week which would be my PB (non treadmill anyway). Can’t see me ever dropping below 30 🤣
December 6, 2025 at 10:26 AM
Just saw the header on your profile - I almost went for a BRMC song too!

I think we both know which one :-)
November 29, 2025 at 1:23 PM
This was one of my considerations - along with ‘I Hate Rock and Roll’

Great pick :-)
November 29, 2025 at 12:53 PM
Ha! Full circle!!

I only saw The Fall a couple of times -(seen The Damned a fair few!).

Having a nightmare today. Deleted and now reposting with the important TOKEN 2

3 genres in the lyrics to this one Grebo (I love how it comes up regularly on here) and Goth. Rock and Roll in there too

It is though I think I prefer the Fall version but that’s probably because I’ve associated it with them for longer

Yeah. I’m quite excited for the covers album too. They’ve always been a pretty good covers band and there are some interesting tracks on there by the looks of things.

Hoping to interview Captain Sensible in the NY so fingers crossed will have the album in time to get him to sign it too 🤞
