Just a reminder, y'know.

I heard the new single on the radio yesterday and I think its rather good. Hopefully this will be better than Regeneration, which wasn't awful, but wasn't a worthy follow up to Fin de Siecle. Also apparently there are some live dates coming up which I hadn't seen before.

Eeeeeeexcellent.  My girlfriend recently lent me an album of theirs.  I actually really like em now, which is shocking as most of the stuff she listens to isn't really to my tastes, like.

TDC are class.

Marvellous. After hearing the new single I went back and listened to Casanova and Fin de Siecle and was reminded how great they are.

The lyrics never tire on me.

fanny splendid

Absent friends?

I borrowed that from the internet library last night. I didn't realise that it was the new record. I was guessing that they must have released something after Fin de Siecle, and I thought this was it. Regeneration eh? I'll have to look that up.

So far, it's not a grabber. I'll have to give it a couple more listens.

hands cold, liver warm

regeneration was great, mile better than the a-bit-too-overblown fin de siecle. The rockier stuff on regeneration worked really well and it should have put him in the mainstream. I hope the new stuff is more like that than his earlier pop stuff. As great as casanova was, that seam has been well and truly mined.

I got Absent Friends about a week ago, and it's really growing on me. The stand-out tracks so far are Come Home Billy Bird (the single), My Imaginary Friend and "Our Mutual Friend" - although Sticks And Stones is bo, too.

El Unicornio, mang

I remember quite liking their first single, but then got gradually more annoyed by them, especially when I heard that song with the awful "comedy line"..."It's hard to get by when your arse is the size of a small country"

Not a fan of comedy music at all. Still like "My Lovely Horse" though

I've only got "Promenade" on my PC, thanks to the girlf........divine stuff tho.

*bdum tish*



bit late that boys.

Fin De Siecle's great, but it's far duller than Regeneration, which is a classic album just for containing 'Bad Ambassador', one of the best songs ever comed up with by any man or lady. Second only to 'Songs Of Love' in Hannon's songbook.

mr rou-rou

I recently bought the CD single for Bad Ambassador just to get the video file off it, the strange bigfoot chap in a top hat falls in love with hubba hubba roller girl, I'll be in the soulseek room if you want it on the trickle trickle.

I like the stuff I've heard, from Fin De Siecle onwards, I like the grandeur and performance of Fin De Siecle (findus slice?) and the more mature Regeneration

I didn't realise he'd done so much
