March 18, 200818 yr Just think of bands this way, the lesser known they are, the better they are. Although that leads to the conclusion that the world's best band can't exist because no-body would have heard of them.
July 23, 200817 yr I love Athlete, bought the album and i'm totally in love with Yesterday threw everything at me and Wires
September 14, 200817 yr They were brilliant last night in Aldershot There was no barrier between crowd and stage, so I managed to grab the set-list, and they played: Light The Way Half Light Shake Those Windows The Awkward Goodbye The Getaway Beautiful Vehicles and Animals Hurricane Don't Hold Your Breath Westside The Outsiders *Song introduced as no title, but on set-list as "Granda's Symphony"* Wires Summer Sun 24 Hours
September 21, 200817 yr What are the new songs like then Dave? Are they better than Beyond The Neighborhood stuff?
September 21, 200817 yr little? Not in England.... Dave's right, they are pretty small in England :cry:
September 21, 200817 yr what? I dont know but when the last album was out they were EVERYWHERE in London. I mean, they were in the charts, on tV, their posters were all over the fuckin places. and then I was back in berlin and saw them in this tiny club and we talked about how strange it is how big they are in the uk and how they totally arent over here. what exactly do you mean, pretty small? Well, compared to Coldplay and radiohead, maybe.
September 21, 200817 yr Nah, its just that following the 3rd album nobody seemed to care. The singles all flopped badly, and the album went into the bargain bin almost immediatly. They deserve more recognition than they're getting basically
September 21, 200817 yr how do you get from peek position to bargain bin so quickly, thats really strange Interesting, here it just didnt change at all. Noone cared in the first place, noone still cares. Except for Wires of course. Which is a shame because I think their third album was tons times better than the second one. And live the songs were a lot more intense, too They deserve more recognition than they're getting basically its always this or the other way round, isnt it?
September 21, 200817 yr What are the new songs like then Dave? Are they better than Beyond The Neighborhood stuff? The new songs were pretty good :) did they play anthing of the outsiders ep? They played The Outsiders :P
September 21, 200817 yr Nah, its just that following the 3rd album nobody seemed to care. The singles all flopped badly, and the album went into the bargain bin almost immediatly. They deserve more recognition than they're getting basically They released their 3rd album at the wrong time, and the radio stations couldn't be bothered playing the new songs instead they played crap
September 21, 200817 yr Ahh you're so luck you got to see them! I missed their last show when they played near me :( They definitely deserve more recognition as a quality band!
July 11, 200916 yr New album, which has slipped under the radar in terms of any news of it: Black Swam, released 24th August I think the tracklisting contains the following 10 songs: 'Superhuman Touch', 'The Getaway', 'Black Swan Song', 'Don't Hold Your Breath', 'Love Come Rescue', 'Light the Way', 'The Unknown', 'The Awkward Goodbye', 'Magical Mistakes', 'Rubik's Cube' But like I said nothing has come though on the new newsletter
