[quote="thehenderson"]It'll be interesting to hear this new album. I listened very briefly to songs from the dictaphone (?) but the tracks I heard sounded a little too 'elevator jams' for my liking. Like, he'd have a cool idea, but then the chorus would kick in with a radio friendly "Grove" that would be weirdly matched. Maybe I wasn't listening right, I think Shane Carter is cool and his live Dimmer band is great imo[/quote]


er that might be the SJD record
not that I have listened to it myself
he does play a Rickenbacker after all :D
more seriously there is a poptastic chorus by him, and I think it has your other favorite NZ song-writer Paul McLaney on it. He's seriously class that MF

I've read and re-read this post, and can't for the life of me work out how you have managed to work in the normal toilet humour Rocky..... must be over my head.

My (bassist) brother saw these guys live and said the bassist was unbelievably shit, while the rest of the band were great. She sure is purty though.

I had no idea you felt that way about Susan and Barry :P
