No matter how hard I concentrate it seems I can't remember the bands I listened to BEFORE I heard Two Gallants the first time.
These guys make you forget everyone you knew before.

Email  

ha reike i completely agree with you. people go "what bands do you listen to alot". you go "two gallants.................."

when i listen to any other band i always compare them to how two gallants make me feel. and they always come out on top. they make every other band look shit

No other band is this intense.
Hm.
Until now I didn't realized that I didn't listened to anything else for months now.
When I got bored with "The Throes" I listened to "What the toll tells" and when I got bored with that I listened to live-songs or interviews... And then "The Throes" again.

Email  

lol yeah youre right. thing with the throes is, it does sound a bit grainy at times. you can tell they produced it themselves. whereas what the toll tells is much more rounder and smooth.
i dont listen to much else other than two gallants anymore. thats it. thats all i need to satisfy my mind. everything else sounds dated

Hehe. I sometimes think "What the Toll tells" is TOO smooth. But hey, doesn't matter.
Since I'm no native speaker: what does this mean:
"something sounds dated"?

Email  

if something sounds dated is like it is a timepeice and relates to a certain time in history not necassarily the current time.

but what the toll tells is a smooooth album i agree!

Email  

Ah, got it. thx.

Email  

yeah reike i actually do get what u mean when it sounds "too smooth". i thought it was just me and i was being too critical. apparently not

The Smiths
Morrissey (I have seen him at RaR this year)
The White Stripes
The Raconteurs (anybody seen them in Cologne in June)
Sonic Youth
Blanche
Tool
Wolfmother
Moloko
Goldfrapp (first row at RaR)
Kaiser Chiefs
