Yeah, Nick Cave's recent stuff has been quite tame.And that Bunny Munro book was gash compared to And the Ass Saw the Angel.

EXACTLYTo give you chance to vent about something I know winds you up, do you think Chase & Status write all their new stuff to the opening ten seconds of Pink Floyd's "Money"?

Yes.They sometimes also motivate themselves with Mudhoney's version of The Money Will Roll Right in.

I concurTheir transition from d'n'b wannabes to chart-friendly cash-machines was signifcantly more sudden than Pendulum's

Yeah, I knowFunny how their career trajectory changed so suddenly, eh? Now you've got Nero, signed to C&S' label, making more Pendulum-lite poppery. I shouldn't complain, from my point of view it's a hell of a lot better than the mid-90's, when everyone wanted to sound like Oasis

Everybody shit tried to sound like Oasis.Spiritualized and Primal Scream made two of the finest albums of that period and sounded nothing like Oasis.

You have to admit that Give Out But Don't Give Up was a change in direction for them thoughEven if it was obviously much better than anything Oasis did, it wa still disappointing by their standards. And Screamadelica preceded Britpop, in fact part of my problem with that whole scene is that it killed British music's creativity stone dead just as it was threatening to get interesting.

i was referring to Vanishing Point.Their best record by a long way.
And compared to the first two, Give Out wasn't really a change in direction, just a step backwards.
The first three songs on it are superb though.

Start of a downward trajectory.Nocturama was poor. His best are Let Love In, Murder Ballads, Boatman's Call and Henry's Dream. Those records represent a pretty good run.

I'm not that familiar with what songs are on what album reallyBut I am familiar with Murder Ballads and it is quality

He followed the insanity of Murder BalladsWith the sophistication of The Boatman's Call. A great album, not a duff track on it.
