Re: Heston, Flex and Marky's Friday Top 5
I thought it was the former, but not to worry either way, seems like I have a new album to explore.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Dec 2017, 2:42pmWait, do these have to be better than the first album or just really fucking good second albums? I went with the latter assumption. All my picks still work, tho the Go4 is a bit of a stretch.laxman wrote: ↑08 Dec 2017, 2:32pmBlimey, Solid Gold must be good if it is much better than Entertainment. I'd better give it a listen.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Dec 2017, 2:07pmNo order other than how they emerged from my brain.
PiL - Metal Box
Gang of Four - Solid Gold
Idlewild - 100 Broken Windows
Pixies - Doolittle
Wire - Chairs Missing
Edit: Why is the quoting fucked up?
Re: Heston, Flex and Marky's Friday Top 5
SG is my favourite — love the weirdo noise groove. What We All Want is probably my favourite Go4 song.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Dec 2017, 2:51pmI think I prefer SG to E! because I like the drums more and it's less “rock” and more idiosyncratic.

Re: Heston, Flex and Marky's Friday Top 5
Marky... banned from his own thread?!? For shame.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!
