The Fish

I'll have a listen, but if it's gash I'll have a crackwhore spit in your mouth while you sleep

I bought Andrew WK's album on the basis of rave reviews from NME and Jo Wiley. Safe to say I never buy the NME anymore, and I take Jo's praise with a vat load of salt. he's a one trick pony and that trick isn't particularly impressive

what the hell have my eyes done to you?!

canofbeans mate, I don't want genres I want one track. One track that you think an iTunes playlist is weaker without. to say anything by boards of canada, is to say "I like this band and their art but can't pick none of their tunes jump off the album sleeve at me."... which frankly isn't putting the effort in.

all added, need more

Even if the fans like the odd bit of church burning? 139933[/snapback] one man's rebel is another man's freedom fighter... or some such nonsense

well I'm open to music from all backgrounds, no matter the artists colour.

but that's the point, this means you get a real cross section of styles and tastes. Edit but don't worry I'll delete any Goth-Death Metal that Brock suggests

tubular bells?

Alex... papa... this has to fit on one CD... with other tracks! ye fuckers!

certainly did

added and added Fook me that's a long song.

If you could add one tune to an iTunes playlist what would it be? I've asked some of my mates and so far the list looks like Jerk It Out The Caesars Pressure Drop The Clash Mr. Jones Counting Crows Daft Punk Is Playing at My House (live) LCD Soundsystem North Country Boy The Charlatans A Day In The Life The Beatles More Than Words Extreme Groove Is In The Heart Deelite The Heat Is On Glenn Frey Sweet Child of Mine Guns N' Roses St. Petersburg Supergrass Sweet Dreams Eurythmics Big Calm Morcheeba We Come One Faithless I'll Be There For You Rembrants Move On Up Curtis Mayfield so howay you miserable lot, aide my procrastination!

Scott Matthews - Elusive he's jeff buckley-lite still ace though

Prime nuff said

didn't rate the Business. seemed more like a "Made for tv" film. At no point did I feel anything for any of the characters. innumerable volume of better crime/gangster films

shouldn't this be the "Definitive Girls Aloud Poll"

.. shirley it's just a "fag"?

should stop distracting me as I'm trying to revise. as I was until 4am this morning as well...

gotta be the tweed, under the condition she keeps shtum and divorces Ashley for a fat piece of cash

couldn't possibly tell me the next line could they?

is close to where strange things happen

has probably ruined my scholastic career with that statement

I would say that it's a very different kind of war film, but one that is only possible with the War in Iraq. It shows what soldiers endure through boredom , low morale etc. Brilliant photography, really strong main characters and a quite chilling depiction of that war. I think it really defines Desert Storm, the ambiguous reasons behind the war, and the futility of the conflict. It's almost as if this story is the perfect metaphor for the war itself. I would recommend (if possible) watching an abridged version with the deleted scenes left in, although I'm guessing Sam Mendes knows what he's up to. I'd put it behind Apocalypse Now, Saving Private Ryan but I think that is because those two weren't just movies that went some way to suggest the horrors of war, but they were also awesome stories and by Directors at the top of their respective games. I think the problem with this film is the unpopularity of the conflict, I don't just mean politically, also as subject matter... perhaps because it's still a matter of current affairs or perhaps because the story isn't dominated by action in the same way as Ryan, or Apoc. It's certainly worth a watch, just don't go expecting any beach storming, either by Wagner's Valkyries, or bullet magnet boats.
