We have a new song up on our myspace about being clever that was produced by the bloke who did Foals, Pete and The Pirates, The Pipettes and the Go Team.

Is that indie enough for you?

no

if you had David Sitek, THEN you'd be indie.

wow

chill pill?


"wow"

That's more like it!


any time

your song is good fun by the way...


^are you saying it has no intellectual weight?

It is mere distraction? Poppycock!

;) ;) ;)


I'm just not intellectual enough myself

I've had to resort to enjoying music rather than appreciating it... sad times!


I am in NO WAY intellectual !

But I'll listen !


Wo, wo, wo...

slow down Einstein.


Lyle's smart, ok...but he's also french

kinda offsets, doncha think?

I know who gerhard ritcher is too, but it doesn't make me a genius. heh. (well, actually i just know daydream nation....)

Other than the fade-in intro, which seemed odd... liked it. Good luck!


the fade in/out

is to stop bootleggers! it's actually over four minutes long.


thought it was a bit short...

I like it but...
don't know...
there's something bothering me...
maybe the vocals...
not as great as they're used to...


Well the whole session

had a more improvisational, 'live' approach. I let go a bit and did some more jazz-inspired stuff. It might take a bit of getting used to...

Man - first we get a French review telling us we're too MOR, now Lyle reckons we're too scrappy... ;)


Good stuff.

Again.
You played P'boro fairly recently right? I missed it. You should play again and I'll come watch.

why bother

listing those bands if no ones ever heard of them
cant be a credable producer tbh mate


Oh spiffing.

We've been duped, mate!


not heard any of the others

but the first Go! Team album is produced like fuck. Hope it isn't that guy


You've never heard Foals?

Gareth Parton (an Official Friend Of STN, for what it's worth) produces all the Go! Team stuff, as he's Ian's brother.


'EXCERPT'?

What fresh hell is this?


heard them on the radio once

they could be produced like Times New Viking or like Steely Dan, who knows?

tell GP he's rubbish at music


?


if i don't like it

is it cos i'm thick?


though

"you can't take him anywhere", you do realise, you've stolen the vocal melody from fireman sam, right?


as long as you know!

it made me chuckle, that's all


no...

its cos you're spiteful, brutally honest and confuse your own opinion with fact!
