DEATH IN JUNE - THE WORLD THAT SUMMER (1986) OK, so I'm going back in time a bit for this one. Way back to the year 1986 - when the world was a strange and ungodly place and where the likes of Molly Ringwald couldn't shop for breakfast cereal without getting mobbed. Ahem....yeah so this week the di...

I bags the AOTW for this weekend!

That's right, I used the term "bags".

I think it has one of the few Police songs that i could ever tolerate, "Wrapped Around Your Finger".

Never really liked or disliked the band. Their singles were ok but the non single album tracks were often bizarrely sub par IMO.

I'll give it a 5.3/10

Yo La Tengo are great!

Eh. As far as "stoner, jam" bands go...I prefer Acid Mothers Temple.

I give it a 6 (just) out of 10.

The kind of music I might listen to on a humid, summer's evening while on a long drive in the country.

OOOOOH!!!!! Bitch bitch!!

That would be a joke worthy of the likes of Neil Hamburger....

I believe lyrics+music are coming close to the final stages. They could get it all finalized and recorded by summer...... As in the dark as we are about it, I'd say this is the most likely current scenario. Lyrics are being written as each section is finalised and handed over. Hopefully they get to...

KFAD is easily my least favorite Faith No More album, behind even Album of the Year......it was a major step back into being a more generic "eclectic" album. Instead of really saying anything bold, it was more like a boring mix tape of styles with the familiar mike patton voice and roddy ...

I'll be happy with an Undertow reissue in March, a "curveball" release in June and a new album in October.

That newsletter didn't sound very promising.

Maynard is "writing" or so it is to be presumed...but the others are all - yup - off on holiday again.

Looks like I can forget about celebrating a new release in November 2014.

"How dare TOOL spend their time living their lives, and getting married, and having babies, when they should be slaving away on a new album for us groovy fans. They're not exactly "slaving away" though are they. I'd hardly call jamming on new material in a funky ass, gadget filled lo...

Tool has jumped the shark. Puscifer? Blah. Volto!? Vintering, fishing-trips, babies, marriage? Blech. Whatever dudes, stop dicking around and putting off the tunes. Bunch of lazy-ass, candy-ass, over-the-hill, creatively-tapped out hipsters. I disagree with the hipster part. I'll bet ya NONE of the...

Pfffft!!

This is a internet fan forum not a barnyard hoedown.

Ten things you may not know about Maynard James Keenan: 10. As a child he learnt the accordion 9. He was born in a row boat just off the coast of Newfoundland 8. He dislikes butternut squash, bathing in salt water and has an aversion to waiting room décor. 7. His favourite bands are Strawberry Alarm...

Talking of why the band haven't toured in six years he said that they didn't want to move to the stage until they had new material in order to avoid becoming, musically stagnant. "As an artist you don't want to become a greatest hits version of yourself, either," he said. "You want t...

You do realise that once this new one finally hits the shelves (November 2014...) and after all the buzz dissipates - there'll be ANOTHER eight years of.......nothing Tool related!! ANOTHER eight years of bitching and whining and moaning. By then we will all (well, I will be anyway) planning our ret...

As someone who doesn't really care for the technical aspect of guitar playing, my favorite guitarists are based on tonal characteristics Duane Denison Buzz Osborne Trey Spruance Yes. You know who else is a brilliant guitarist? Deen Ween. Absolutely magnificent. Can mimic any genre with perfection. ...

Nurse With Wound are playing in Adelaide next year. Damn Adelaide.

Portal in melbs: tix

Yep. Saw Absu and Portal three years ago in Melbourne and will go again. Portal are better IMO.

The concert will indeed be performed in Spanish. A large pinata will be set up in the middle of the stadium. Every man for himself and Margaritas all round....

Xmas is coming on the 25th of December. I'm calling it.

I love it when people in the changing rooms are embarrassed when you walk around with no towel.

Now there's a band that actually gets shit done!
