Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

the whole EP is pretty great, I already love "Stay With You"

but "The Fruity Track" loops "millions of peaches, peaches for me" over and over and it kinda made me spit up in the back of my throat a little bit

think i'll stick with "Stay With You" for the time being
what a great track

oh man, now they've gone and done it
bad company sample (no the OTHER one, from the 70s)
"feel like makin love"

ugh, ok so maybe this isn't so great after all
but that first track is divine

Yeah, I heard "Stay With You" on the radio the other day. It is excellent!

I love 'Rolled' to bits, r-boy. Incidentally, the album's released at the end of Jan. as a 5x10" box set.

I wonder if it will be as disasterous as "lost horizons".

If by "disastrous", you mean "good", then yeah, I wonder too.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 11 November 2004 11:20 (twenty-one years ago)

what's 'disastrous' about lost horizons????
are you mad?

Lost Horizons was the most unlimited limited edition since Aphex Twin's Druqs.

I hardly play it myself - found it had gone all jaunty instead of the interesting promised by the EPs that were KY. The Soft Rock and Rolled Oats singles have shown what they can do. I just hope they don't do another limited vinyl run of 300,000 or something.

Disasterous sales-wise I would say, and below par on standard.

i'm not sure i've heard the Rolled Oats one - what does it involve?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Thursday, 11 November 2004 13:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Why was I hoping they might have sampled the Stranglers one instead?

"found it had gone all jaunty" num num

i've played this once, and it didn't grab me. JSL

now *that* would've been a treat.

― rentboy (rentboy), Thursday, 11 November 2004 13:52 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah go back a minute what's 'rolled oats' ???
is this some kind of rare-ass fans only thing?
never heard of it.

― piscesboy, Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:11 (twenty-one years ago)

i assumed it was the Stranglers 'Peaches' being used before i read the thread

The only people who actually believed Lost Horizons was a limited release work in Piccadilly Records. But I had to buy it off them as I would've saved a tenner buying it and the random (actually limted) vinyl edition of KY they'd managed to turn up.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:17 (twenty-one years ago)

They did two releases - as on discogs - soft rock (soft eventually coming out as a b-side on nice weather for ducks) and rolled oats.

The packaging is great - all airside, but custom. Soft Rock is better (packaging and tracks), but the George Michael side is pretty good fun. I have a few copies sat at home (I worked out this was wise after only buying one copy of soft rock, now changing hands for £80)

But have you actually sold any yet? Ebay has never made me want to sell my spare, though I haven't checked in a while. Agreed that 'Oats' is killer, but 'Soft' has become a drag over time.

Incidentally, only half of Lost Horizons could be considered close to "all jaunty".

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:26 (twenty-one years ago)

yes but what IS Rolled Oats?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:30 (twenty-one years ago)

I understand your point BARMS - it was the half that was all jaunty that really annoyed me though. I am not claiming I know the album that well or have listened to it in over a year - it gave me a really bad first impression - my expectation was possibly too high.

From Impotent Fury (Deakin's annual Edinburgh night) I have little idea how this album will sound, as it was just as daft as ever.

As for the Rolled Oats price - it goes for £10-£15 from what I have seen. Hopefully the new album will raise a fever and make it worth more. It is quite strange than it is both the softer sides of the singles work better.

(xpost) - Steve - it is a hessian sleeved seven inch single!

Yeah, Mannion, click on the link I provided for once!

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:37 (twenty-one years ago)

ah right. follow that link stevem.

so a lemon jelly song that samples (legally?) george michael's heal the pain!?? well that's an astonishing thing to discover as a fan of the (once) great man. aces!

― piscesboy, Thursday, 11 November 2004 14:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Not legal at all, pisces, which is why they aren't ever issued under the lemon jelly name or on XL at first - it pays to be anonymous before the law suits arrive.

― 3underscore (___), Thursday, 11 November 2004 15:16 (twenty-one years ago)

is soft rock the one used in the new 3 phone adverts? or is that another rejiggying of that track
