Welcome to the party
Draw up a seat and let the bile flow.

On today's agenda of hate is The Stone Roses. Never have a band so devoid of talent managed to amass such a wealth of positive reviews, sickening platitudes and wildly over the top sycophancy.

I LOVE B3ta.
Stone Roses: 'Best British Album of all time'

To this day I am fucking flabbergasted by how cretinous the very idea is. Utter, utter tosh.

Pretty much.
I liked the Mondays though. And from that scene, ther Doves were ace.

I liked Wrote for Luck, that's it for me
The Mondays were better as a concept than as actual music, I think, fucking hilarious bunch of chaps but I wouldn't buy a record off 'em. One of my favourite 12"s is Space Face by Sub Sub (who became Doves). I spent a LOT of money on that one...

Aaaaw man
I had completely forgotten about that track. I had bought the 12" when it came out, for £4. Sold it a few years later along with a whole load of other stuff i now regret, for peanuts.

Everyone wrongly thinks the sample 'my god, it's full of stars' to be from 2001, whereas it is actually from 2010. Decent track, although it sounds a bit ropey by today's standards.

What next K-Klass? ;-)

It's worth up to £50 mate, unlucky!
EDIT N-Joi's 'Live in Manchester' is the perfect time capsule for that era, for me. I LOVE it.

I was AT that fucking gig
Then went back to an enormous garden flat, with a full dolby 5.1 setup, amazing for its day, and necked 2 purple ohms. I still get flashbacks about it.

Was at the Hacienda
the night before as well, great fucking weekend. Had a few pals who worked for Ocean Software and we would be down to 'Madchester' every other month. That flat was the scene of many outrageous LSD episodes, including the now infamous 'black microdot' event.

My brother lived there at the time
He was friendly with the Hacienda security mob. Dodgy gangsters to a man...

I have to.
The hammering mine takes, it makes sense to have a couple of spares.
