NOZ SPEAKS THE TRUTH

Pretty much everyone that has an interest in that terd has already heard and reacted to it, dude--join us in the 21st century.
That statement may be true, but keithvanhorn has a point: we still haven't seen the reaction of those who aren't necessarily interested or aware of GB but are the most poised to determine the project's financial success: the great North American unwashed (unblogged) mainstream music audience.
I'm not sure that we will. This seems like a project whose appeal is limited to the British and to the type of American the posts on www.okayplayer.com.
 
it is interesting to note that ascetic purists now seem to come both with and without backpacks.

underrated post.
"ascetic purists" = monks???

Dudes need to get their vocabulary game up before they try to talk slick.

Dudes should also try actually reading the piece before whining about "aesthetic purism"
I meant "ascetic", as in "vinegary", as in "piss and vinegar", as in the overall tone of noz's piece (some of which I agree with). Just thought I'd point that out. Your concern for my vocab game has been duly noted.

Oops... I thought he was quoting somebody else. Had I realized it was from your post, I would have assumed that it was a deliberate word choice. Sorry about that (seriously).
 
can we at least all agree that the hype behind this shit is unwarranted based on the music delivered so far?

Except for "Crazy"... yes. even though i like the song, shit aint worth all the buzz and it's also at least six months old by now.

yeah but six months old in English time means brand new in america. different time zones.
 
May I say that amongst 'Garage Rock' types (for lack of a better descriptor) like F16, SoulMarcossa and myself, 'hatting' was a bit of a way of life in the early 90s! It came with the territory of roaming a completely different musical and cultural landscape than what was widely enjoyed or even accepted by the mainstream at the time. What was even more fun was hating 'within the scene'! I mean, it's what makes any scene fun! Nothing motivates people to do better than their inner "Oh Yeah?!"

So people need to loose their inner cranks and produce some negative commentary about the state of things! Seriously, Noz's shit in this thread and the "Talib Kweli Diaper Rash" thread are the most fun I have had on this site in a looooong time. but then again, my double time flowz are pretty wack. But I do have an album!
Seriously.

I am not at all feeling this relentless positivity schitt.
