True story, I have witnesses to back it up - last time I listened to Pyramid Song whilst watching an ace YouTube vid someone had made for it, I cried tears of wonder at its beauty and it's close association with a poem I had just written. I know, I sound like a right fucking twat but it was such a transcendent moment that I felt obliged to share it.
Ok, you can all get sniggering now.
Listening to Akala the London rapper.Very eloquent and very similar to Sensor-Stacked Up with the rock rap mix.Also check his address to the Oxford Union on Black history and Race as well as giving Tommy Robinson a pasting.The EDL prick was bubbling like a spoil brat after being verbally taken apart.

He is kinda petit bourgeois technically but his racial analysis is bang on the money and man can he spit!!!
I guess you've seen this;
Yes I have.Its rare to find someone who is clear and succinct hence eloquent and doesn't procrastinate.Chomsky is the prime example of this.
petit bourgeois ?the genre he's in is that.Music can only go so far in consciousness and unless you think it's a panacea to all then you can be accused of being petit bourgeois.I don't know if he's claimed that but you take what he says and the positives regardless.
Good music and excellent advice from Blind Alfred Reed.

How in tarnation do you come up with this stuff AB? It's utterly bizzare!!!
Personally, I am very strongly in favour of bobbed hair and the whole flapper style in general. It's a very good look and obviously highly suitable to the greatest of all dances, the Charlston!
Gosh Noah, glad I’m not a sensitive soul to have my taste in music called utterly bizarre.
I often find lyric content secondary to the individuality and sincerity of the performer. I’m with you regarding bobbed hair –the wonderful Louise Brooks, the bobbed style incarnate.
That is so lummy, Noah, you’ve never heard of the fab four? Better not to know.
Cryptic! 'Lummy'? What the devil does that mean? I heard of the Fab Four but never understood why fab was the chosen adjective. For comedy purposes I've been trawling my brain for a word begin with F that means pedestrian, mediocre, dull, dreary and drab. No luck though. Can you help?
I’d a pal who used lummy a lot, means a bit like cor blimmy, crickey or awesome (pick the odd out out).
Word beginning with f? Flaccid possibly? Particularly if compared to the strolling bones.

You're a very cryptic fellow Whirwind. Are you with me or against me? If you are with me my did you post this horrendous slice of dreary pre-dad rock? If you're against me please justify your bizzare stance. I challenge you Sir! Justify your position!
Noah, you describe Down in the tube station and The Jam as 'horrible ladishness'. For that I was admonishing you and pleading with you to listen to the lyrics – they are not laddish. As for 'dreary', that is quite a good description of this song but that just shows the skill of the songwriters to reflect their environment. Have you ever been to Slough? As long as you're not against me, I'm not against you. I don't know what 'pre-dad' means.

You're actually suggesting that I listen to the ghastly thing? Ew, what an appalling idea!
The ladishness is not necessarily the fault of the band but Comrade Weller's following have always been revoltingly laddish. I can't help but be prejudiced against him for always having been a particularly irritating form of liberal lefty. Oh, and then there's the personality bypass.
Weller fits nicely into the genre of 'Dad Rock' these days. Hope that explains.
Anyways, don't worry about it, I'm a well known troll on Libcom music threads, all sorts have been subjected to my peculiar scrutiny - Jimmy Hendrix, The Clash and Patti Smith have all been grist to my mill.
Seriously though, I can't stand po faced, pop denegrating, 'credible' music snobbery. I'm simply trying to redress the balance.
You talk of lyrics skilfully reflecting their environment, well this does so with equal skill plus it's funny and entertaining. This is a very smart song and video and it drives me crazy that it goes unnoticed as such and is condemned to the cultural dustbin. I am serious about this comrade.
The distant echo
Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
To take them home to
The ones that they love and who love them forever
The glazed, dirty steps, repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
Except for toffee wrappers and this morning's paper
Mr. Jones got run down
Headlines of death and sorrow, they tell of tomorrow
Madmen on the rampage
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I fumble for change, and pull out the Queen
Smiling, beguiling
I put in the money and pull out a plum
Behind me
Whispers in the shadows, gruff blazing voices
Hating, waiting
"hey boy" they shout, "have you got any money?"
And I said, "I've a little money and a take away curry,
I'm on my way home to my wife.
She'll be lining up the cutlery,
You know she's expecting me
Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork"
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I first felt a fist, and then a kick
I could now smell their breath
They smelt of pubs and wormwood scrubs
And too many right wing meetings
My life swam around me
It took a look and drowned me in its own existence
The smell of brown leather
It blended in with the weather
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth
It blocked all my senses
Couldn't see, hear, speak any longer
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I said I was down in the tube station at midnight
The last thing that I saw
As I lay there on the floor
Was "Jesus saves" painted by an atheist nutter
And a British rail poster read "have an away day, a cheap holiday
Do it today!"
I glanced back on my life
And thought about my wife
Cause they took the keys, and she'll think it's me
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
The wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold
I'm down in the tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight

An Autumn for Crippled Children. Really crap band name, but decent music. In general I tend to listen to a lot of the post-black metal stuff these days.
Er, I'm in a band! This is a recording of part of our first gig in a new format and style. Bit shambolic but not a bad effort unrehearsed. Playing some gigs and festivals over the course of this year so if you like techno house type stuff get on down!
I heard years ago on the radio that waltzes were banned either by the Bolsheviks or Stalin (I forget which) for being bourgeois. As a result, I make a point of listening to them and, if necessary, dancing in circles around the living room.
That made me feel lost in time, shot by it's arrow, or that the moment when you first become aware of the world as a kid and the moment when you die are one and the same moment, and so many regrets and longings, beautiful as well though. reminded me of time's tyranny in this one:
She has a very beautiful voice but I prefer Sam Cooke. It took me a long time to decide between Aretha Franklin and the original but the original just wins, for me.

A friend said the same to me a few weeks ago. Fair enough. Very pleased to note no X factor snobbery. Actually, I can't stand it but a beautiful voice is a beautiful voice. No doubt they glossed it up and removed any trace of the beauty and fragility. Dirty bastards.
He dismounted and handed him the drink
of Farewells. He asked him where
he would go and why must it be.
He spoke, his voice was quiet. Ah my friend,
Fortune was not kind to me in this world!
Where do I go? I go, I wander in the mountains.
I seek peace for my lonely heart.
I wander homeward, to my abode!
I’ll never wander far.
Still is my heart, awaiting its hour.
The dear earth everywhere blossoms in spring and grows green
anew! Everywhere and forever blue is the horizon!
Forever ... Forever ...

One of the best concerts I’ve been to was Richard Thompson solo with his acoustic guitar.
This captures some of his dark magic:

have you ever listened to the grizzly man soundtrack? Its all instrumental, mostly acoustic, guitar music by richard thompson and its absolutely beautiful.
Breaking Benjamin - Natural Life (from 'Saturate.')
I guess it's kind of like pop music? Like, music more pop than alt, after 1999? Who would listen to that?
Everyone knows this is the best Pulp song, She's a lady.
Some interesting stuff in that song - Pulp often sound like they're recording in a haunted house - but it might come off as a bit too similar to 'Do You Remember the First Time' or 'Something Changed,' songs which to be fair would possibly be a decent portrayal of the history of left communism from Bordiga in the latter to the modern ICC and similar in the former. In addition, brings up quite a few themes, eg. selling pictures of herself, but doesn't really take any particular stance on this apart from vaguely taking issue with it, as it were, which comes across as a bit incomplete of course. 'Pink Glove' is a bit sharper, if indefinite, for instance, although they probably have better songs, and in general their music can be a bit samey once you get past their gimmick of Jarvis Cocker being friendzoned and abused by everyone.
Surely there's got to be someone to say that it's 'Underwear,' though, just for the sake of such a niche existing.
The new Radiohead album is awesome. Haven't sat down and listened to a whole album through with no distractions in a long time, but I had to with this one
I heard a tune on the radio in the mid to late Nineties. It had a Poppy digital rhythm track and could loosely be described as 'reggae'. The only lyrics I can remember were:
"Got to be, part of the working class, yeah
For your friends and family:
Because we need that company... "
Does anyone know the artist and song-title ('Working Class', I presume)?
Another tune from the early Nineties that I would desperately love to track down was more underground and contained the lines:
"Jim is having his party,
Where is the police tonight?"
Rise Against are impressively determined about committing suicide.
She said, "Just go on do what you
Pretend is your life, but
Please don't die on me." -
Wings won't take me
Heights don't phase me
So take a step
But don't look down
Take a step
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall.\
They'll stop at nothing to get what they want. They'll stop at nothing, so why should you?
I saw Rise Against at Brixton Academy with phoney ass politico Tom Morrelo a few years back. It was awful beyond words - a lecture between every song made up of mostly liberal claptrap but regularly employing the word 'revolution'. And then, as if it hadn't been bad enough, as an encore the dragged on Billy Bragg for some campfire revolutionary songs. It was the musical and political equivalent of having your toenails pulled out.

It was the musical and political equivalent of having your toenails pulled out.
Rise Against were generally objectionable, that said they are a bit bipolar, as they do opt despite popular trappings to identify with the fairly obscure and marginal genre of punk. They have occasionally been doing a bit better of late live, I'm told, but that might depend. The straightforward suicidal angle there does sort of encapsulate the punk elements of their style, though, so it does have a sort of appeal. Generally their earlier records are a bunch of slogans and Valentine's Day card extracts shouted loudly, which may or may not resemble the word 'revolution,' but there are occasionally some bright spots. Their earlier song 'Black Masks & Gasoline,' does include some of the trends you mention, but also some slightly similar attempts at detachment to the song previously mentioned, such as the perhaps rather cynical take on MLK, 'And I have an American Dream, but it involves black masks and gasoline,' as well as slightly less liberal sentiments than those associated with the band, like, 'We're not putting up with this planet one more day, much less one more year.'
You sort of figure that if Satan, the adversary, made a rock band, it would be quite different from Rise Against.
That may well all be true and I've no reason to doubt such a splendid fellow as yourself but it doesn't alter the fact that regardless of the sentiment expressed, their set up as 2 whole hours of imagination free tedium. The very dullest of metal tinged punk that had a similar effect to swallowing a large dose of Mogadon and the keeping yourself wake by bashing yourself over the head with a croquet mallet.
I've had this on repeat all week. I think my next door neighbour will probably do me an injury next time we see each other. I don't know why it's not a better known reggae song, I mean it's not obscure but it should be better known.

Please Sleeper, don't do it! I can take alot but not the infinitely dull obviousness of Mr Weller, whatever form it may take. And besides, I don't know if you're old enough to remember Red Wedge? Oh Lordy. That was some painful shit! What a fucking cock!
I remember this first time around and whatever your opinion of Weller it inspired a lot of working class kids like myself to think and get off our arses and do something...

Maybe, but what it encouraged them to think was you could change things through voting Labour. So, at best, it was suggesting a kinder form of capitalism. As usual, the false hope obstacle of liberalism was placed firmly in the revolutionary road.
The general process for listening to Griffin in the modern day is something like: Listen to something that's not indie pop -> What isn't indie pop? -> Griffin.
Some interesting references to imagery of Hell, etc., to characterise temptation, entrapment and so on. Slightly mild, but nonetheless does seem to be aiming for something more pronounced and less conventional with its imagery.
Noah Fence. If Killing Joke had made as much money as Paul Weller maybe they would have joined Red Wedge to safeguard their investments. We'll never know.

Well, I doubt it but I only posted it as some interesting and energising music of the eighties to compare with the beige drudge of Comrade Weller.
I've worked in the studio of the extremely wealthy Youth(the bass player). As a pop producer the guy was a a fucking wizard. As a person he was a stoner hippy woo woo merchant of the worst type. I don't supposed that's changed now. Anyway, he is hardly the type to join Red Wedge. I would also suggest that he is considerably richer than Weller. He's an incredibly successful songwriter and producer as well as an astute businessman. He masterminded the career of Bananarama and has a very successful record label.
God knows why I'm telling you all this. None of it alters the fact that Weller is the most boring cunt to ever catch the focus of the Noah eye.
Thanks Noah Fence. I don't think I have any friendship on this forum so yours would be very much appreciated. I like Killing Joke. I saw them at the Hammersmith Palais. I think it was the first (and only) time I inhaled tear gas – the bouncers let some off in the lobby.
I think one day you will have a change of heart about the songwriting of Paul Weller. Stranger things have happened.
Hmmm, I could also become a Labour voter or start enjoying sticking pins in my eyes but I doubt it. I could even become a Billy Bragg fan! Ah stop it Noah, now your just being silly!
BTW, embedded videos won't play on my fancy new phone so I've no idea what that song is like. I do remember though that Sugar Minot had a spring instead of a neck resulting in a very wobbly head!
Also, I used to have a non sexual crush on Youth when I was young. I thought he looked so cool and glamorous and then later on I met him a number of times it was very disappointing to find he was a smelly hippy with a similar conversational style to Neil from The Young Ones. Never meet your idols, they'll let you down. Unless they don't - David Icke was fucking great!

My favourite are the Mick Jones compositions: Lost in the Supermarket and Train in Vain. You beg the question, what was your favourite punk song of the 70`s? Or you could let us guess. You may have mentioned it. Was it by The Damned?
Blimey, this new fashion craze for dying amongst musicians is getting out of hand. That said, ideally hope the Annie Lennox and Billy Bragg get radio able real soon.
Annie Lennox I agree with but Billy Bragg should stick around long enough to have a nervous breakdown. The Damned are alright but sound more US than UK and I don't think it was called punk until it reached the shores of Britain.
Auld-bold's selection was good and it is sad that the man has passed away. Potrokin's tunes are good too. Roots Reggae is king:

I don't actually care too much about 70s punk. It was 40 years ago and was very much a thing of the moment. What bores me on this thread is the lack of pop music, like commission are too cool for that shit. Duh. That said, I may be wrong coz I haven't clicked on every link. If so then my bad.
Thanks you guys, I really appreciate the effort but I'm afraid those 2 pop tracks don't count. Why, I hear you ask? It's simple really, they don't count coz I don't like them.
Shit, what's a man gotta do to get a down vote around here theses days? It's just not fair.

AB - there are all sorts of musical taste sensations available to us and I like most of them, from sugar sweet to bitter vinegar. The problem is that around 99% just don't get the recipe right so they taste like shit though.

You're actually suggesting that I listen to the ghastly thing? Ew, what an appalling idea!
The ladishness is not necessarily the fault of the band but Comrade Weller's following have always been revoltingly laddish. I can't help but be prejudiced against him for always having been a particularly irritating form of liberal lefty. Oh, and then there's the personality bypass.
Weller fits nicely into the genre of 'Dad Rock' these days. Hope that explains.
Anyways, don't worry about it, I'm a well known troll on Libcom music threads, all sorts have been subjected to my peculiar scrutiny - Jimmy Hendrix, The Clash and Patti Smith have all been grist to my mill.
Seriously though, I can't stand po faced, pop denegrating, 'credible' music snobbery. I'm simply trying to redress the balance.
You talk of lyrics skilfully reflecting their environment, well this does so with equal skill plus it's funny and entertaining. This is a very smart song and video and it drives me crazy that it goes unnoticed as such and is condemned to the cultural dustbin. I am serious about this comrade.

I guess it's kind of like pop music? Like, music more pop than alt, after 1999? Who would listen to that?
Some interesting stuff in that song - Pulp often sound like they're recording in a haunted house - but it might come off as a bit too similar to 'Do You Remember the First Time' or 'Something Changed,' songs which to be fair would possibly be a decent portrayal of the history of left communism from Bordiga in the latter to the modern ICC and similar in the former. In addition, brings up quite a few themes, eg. selling pictures of herself, but doesn't really take any particular stance on this apart from vaguely taking issue with it, as it were, which comes across as a bit incomplete of course. 'Pink Glove' is a bit sharper, if indefinite, for instance, although they probably have better songs, and in general their music can be a bit samey once you get past their gimmick of Jarvis Cocker being friendzoned and abused by everyone.
Surely there's got to be someone to say that it's 'Underwear,' though, just for the sake of such a niche existing.

I heard a tune on the radio in the mid to late Nineties. It had a Poppy digital rhythm track and could loosely be described as 'reggae'. The only lyrics I can remember were:
"Got to be, part of the working class, yeah
For your friends and family:
Because we need that company... "
Does anyone know the artist and song-title ('Working Class', I presume)?
Another tune from the early Nineties that I would desperately love to track down was more underground and contained the lines:
"Jim is having his party,
Where is the police tonight?"

So take a step
But don't look down
Take a step
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall.\

I saw Rise Against at Brixton
I saw Rise Against at Brixton Academy with phoney ass politico Tom Morrelo a few years back. It was awful beyond words - a lecture between every song made up of mostly liberal claptrap but regularly employing the word 'revolution'. And then, as if it hadn't been bad enough, as an encore the dragged on Billy Bragg for some campfire revolutionary songs. It was the musical and political equivalent of having your toenails pulled out.
Noah Fence wrote: I saw Rise
Noah Fence
Rise Against were generally objectionable, that said they are a bit bipolar, as they do opt despite popular trappings to identify with the fairly obscure and marginal genre of punk. They have occasionally been doing a bit better of late live, I'm told, but that might depend. The straightforward suicidal angle there does sort of encapsulate the punk elements of their style, though, so it does have a sort of appeal. Generally their earlier records are a bunch of slogans and Valentine's Day card extracts shouted loudly, which may or may not resemble the word 'revolution,' but there are occasionally some bright spots. Their earlier song 'Black Masks & Gasoline,' does include some of the trends you mention, but also some slightly similar attempts at detachment to the song previously mentioned, such as the perhaps rather cynical take on MLK, 'And I have an American Dream, but it involves black masks and gasoline,' as well as slightly less liberal sentiments than those associated with the band, like, 'We're not putting up with this planet one more day, much less one more year.'
You sort of figure that if Satan, the adversary, made a rock band, it would be quite different from Rise Against.
That may well all be true and
That may well all be true and I've no reason to doubt such a splendid fellow as yourself but it doesn't alter the fact that regardless of the sentiment expressed, their set up as 2 whole hours of imagination free tedium. The very dullest of metal tinged punk that had a similar effect to swallowing a large dose of Mogadon and the keeping yourself wake by bashing yourself over the head with a croquet mallet.

Ok, the description was a joke but the tune is fucking ace. Obviously no good for anti pop snootbags but I assume that's not you coz you like the chart topping pub singer Adele. Ew.

Some interesting references to imagery of Hell, etc., to characterise temptation, entrapment and so on. Slightly mild, but nonetheless does seem to be aiming for something more pronounced and less conventional with its imagery.

Well, I doubt it but I only posted it as some interesting and energising music of the eighties to compare with the beige drudge of Comrade Weller.
I've worked in the studio of the extremely wealthy Youth(the bass player). As a pop producer the guy was a a fucking wizard. As a person he was a stoner hippy woo woo merchant of the worst type. I don't supposed that's changed now. Anyway, he is hardly the type to join Red Wedge. I would also suggest that he is considerably richer than Weller. He's an incredibly successful songwriter and producer as well as an astute businessman. He masterminded the career of Bananarama and has a very successful record label.
God knows why I'm telling you all this. None of it alters the fact that Weller is the most boring cunt to ever catch the focus of the Noah eye.

I think one day you will have a change of heart about the songwriting of Paul Weller. Stranger things have happened.

Also, I used to have a non sexual crush on Youth when I was young. I thought he looked so cool and glamorous and then later on I met him a number of times it was very disappointing to find he was a smelly hippy with a similar conversational style to Neil from The Young Ones. Never meet your idols, they'll let you down. Unless they don't - David Icke was fucking great!

Annie Lennox I agree with but Billy Bragg should stick around long enough to have a nervous breakdown. The Damned are alright but sound more US than UK and I don't think it was called punk until it reached the shores of Britain.
