Thread fail.

Seriously, what a fucking shit thread. Starts off by trying to look cool by writing a bit of information that everybody knew 3 years ago. Then suggests a collaboration that isn't going to happen. Fucking fail of joshier proportions.

ChrisCunningham also produced some of the tracks from The Horrors's last album Primary Colors which I like a lot.

Completely not interested. The sound of their first album was heavily "influenced" by The Birthday Party, apparently the new album is heavily "influenced" by shoegaze bands but I refuse to listen to it because they are not, in my opinion, a particularly good band.

I wouldn't quite say shoegaze bands but their new album is heavily influenced by The Cure, Joy Division, Can and since Geoff Barrow of Portishead produced it, you can hear a bit of Portishead on it as well especially the track " Sea within a sea" where the second half of the track sounds really similar to the track "The Rip" from their last album "Third".

i fuckin' love their latest album. not interested in their other stuff though because it's the shoegaze/ambient stuff that made me buy it.

Fucking sick of this term "shoegaze" being banded around as if it was a cool new scene. Saw it being used in the Coldplay video thread aswell. I think it's a term which is starting to be overused. Just to make you aware it hasn't gone unnoticed and it ain't hip.

This equates to me as "we're still ripping off far-better post-punk bands of the 1980s"

Of course this applies to a lot of modern "indie".
