Fun Stuff > BAND
talk about a band you wish more people have heard of here.
a pack of wolves:
--- Quote from: muffy ---Another band who I neeeeeed more people to love is The Pipettes -
3 girls doing synchronised dancing and handclaps with a male backing band, they make the happiest music known to mankind, it's the best possible incarmation of pop. I know I've mentioned them before, but I won't rest until everyone knows them!
--- End quote ---
I don't get it...
Why is this so good? I just went and found their website, and you're right. It's perfect pop, but damnit if I know why!

*checks the pipettes website*
*listens to some tracks*
*nods slowly*
*puts Nazgul back on*
muffy:
Damnit!
See, the thing is, I'm a miserable cow and generally only listen to miserable music, but a few bands can pull me out of being miserable and make me want to dance and smile and sing. Tilly and the Wall are one of those bands, Pipettes are another.
SO I WANT YOU ALL TO LOVE THEM TOO!
Robbo:
Miserable you say? Go listen to Life of Agony's River Runs Red...if you're still here by the end, you're not depressed.
*Listens to some Pipettes....blinks....blocks the website....goes back to Nortt*
KharBevNor:
When I want some cheery music, I generally listen to Skyclad. 'Helium' is definitively the happiest song about suicide ever, and 'Great Blow for a Day Job' is the most brilliant take on selling your soul to the devil ever.
I mentioned Skyclad twenty posts up, because they are (or rather were, fuck you Ken Riddle) THE. BEST. BAND. EVER. They had wit, originality, musical proficiency, catchy tunes, and genuine roots and credentials for their anger against society. When Good Charlotte sing about 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous' everybody laughs. When some out of work kid from a housing block who lives on his music sings about 'A Bellyfull of Emptiness' you don't laugh. Or I get very, very, very angry.
Did anyone check them out?
I'm going to give you NO EXCUSE:
Land of the Rising Slum (Acoustic)
Vintage Whine (Sample)
Penny Dreadful (Sample)
Prime Evil (Venom Cover)
More of the same
Pleeeeeease *flutters eyelashes*
