Just saying, should've been a thread before this. I likey, many (meaning most you) probably don't. New album kinda sucked, but the first banged hard and the second was just so complete. Anywho, JUST SAYIN'!
new one sucks huh? thats a shame.
the first to are so good.
the new one has moments a greatness, but there is some very mediocre moments too. you should try it out though, some parts are classic and worth it.
Not a fan what so ever.
dry yer eyes mate!
two*
they were awesome at Big Day Out 05'
not so great in perth, some cunts in trees fucked it up.
Melbourne was good, i was on the front so i didnt get fucked over by the blistering sun.
They gave out shots of Rum or something, pretty cool.
There was some people up in the trees at Melb aswell, i was pretty jealous.. good spot to chill out.
mikey was pissed off, threatening to finish the show and shit.
ha, did he throw all of his tea bags all over the stage? i found it kind of strange.. he just chucked them by his feet.. but fuck.. that year was all about The Blues Explosion for me.. they were amazing..
anyone going
nah the new album was better than the second. the 2nd only had 2 good songs.
only if i get a freebie. saw him at livid a couple of year back and the live show wasn't up to much
>nah the new album was better than the second. the 2nd only had 2 good songs.
bollocks. the new album only has two good songs, prangin out and never went to church
I should. I went last time he was here...
version your head is stupid!!
its a great album. ya just gotta get the stupid out of yr head then youll like it!
how can you argue with logic like that?
I hated this guy with a passion when I first heard him, then I caught on.
is there any ecstacy songs on the latest record like "blinded by the lights" or whatever the one on the first record was called? i like them the best
i'd be curious to see him again at the big day out but he's playing at the same time as hot chip so fuck that. last time i saw him the highlight was two hot lesbians grinding against me the whole show
he's a nice guy. interviewed him a couple of weeks ago.

Awesome, getting it.
So, I'm digging this a fucking heap at the moment. Instantly better than the last, and it has some quality Skinner moments. Just beneath A Grand... for me, and he certainly isn't just resting on his laurels.
Touring for the BDO as well apparently, which should be awesome cause he was great last time.
There's some really awesome songs on this eh? I'm digging it so far. And there's also some growers, which is a good thing.
Yeah, exactly. Tops!
New Streets album is intolerable
Original Pirate Material, on the otherhand, is still fucking awesome
In it's own little way my body was tryin to say that you better stop drinking brandy!!
Nah, gotta disagree shauno. I like the new one. Its light, but its got some good songs.
it's still not a patch on original pirate material, not many albums are. he's coming for playground weekender, i don't know if that means big day out as well.
Touring Oz in Feb.
We're on a mission, support the cause
Sign a petition, summon all your wisdom
The Music's a gift from the Man on high
The Lord and his children
Triple teenyear rudeboys
Come rain or snow the boodah flows
You don't know?
Stand on the corner watch the show
Cos life moves slow
Sort yer shit out then roll
Sex, Drugs 'n' On The Dole
Some men rise, some men fall
I hear ya call, stand tall now
I'm just spitting, think I'm ghetto?
Stop dreaming, my data's streaming
I'm giving your bird them feelings
Touch yer toes and touch the ceiling
We walk the tightrope of street cred
Keep my dogs fed, all jungle all garage heads
Gold teeth, valentinos and dreads
Now, we were verbally slapped up
Physically tip-top, spinally ripped up
I do the science on my laptop, get my boys mashed up
Your listening to The Streets
You'll bear witness to some amazing feats
Bravery in the face of defeat BRAVERY IN THE FACE OF DEFEAT
All line up and grab yer seat
Cos Tony's got a new motor
SR Nova driving like a joyrider
Speeding to the corner
Yer mother warned yer to sound system banger
muscles LIVE DJ set supporting THE STREETS
tuesday 10th february
billboard nightclub - melbourne
tickets $50
Fuck off muscles.
Yeah this was pretty good. Got a bit samey in parts but overall Skinner worked the crowd well and played heaps off the first album so I was happy.
Billboard was a suitable venue for it as well I thought.
Good gig but won't make my top 10 at the end of the year.
that's good, i'm excited for friday night!
Shit, this is on Friday? Wont be able to attend.
The new (and final) album ''Computers and Blues'' is out there floating around.
''Outside Inside'' seems to be the pick of the tracks.
what assurances do we have that this will be the last one?
I read an interview where he... Ah, go fuck yerself.
''taken over'' the guardians music section this week, albums listenable, bonus track, couple of interviews, repeats that this is the end, no more interviews/media or the like (will finish off tour though)
This is cool. A choose-your-own-adventure music video to showcase the new album (which I'm enjoying a lot, btw). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwAvNRv7J34
