I find some of the songs on SoG pretty boring as they go on for fucking ages…I don’t think it’s a bad album but as it’s sandwiched between two absolute classics for me it pales in comparison a bit.

I’d put SOG before Gothic and Icon above them both.

The album finally leaked. As you can imagine I couldn’t resist - and I’m very impressed by it.
Looking forward to the special edition of the record.

Am gonna try to get to one of the Type O Shows, Even though I have been into PL since Icon, I’ve never actually managed to go and see em live.
I hated Believe In Nothing and so haven’t really paid much attention to them of late but it does sound like they have returned to form somewhat.

I have the limited release of In Requiem on pre-order but have failed to resist and am currently dl’ing it. Read some good things about it and I’m well tempted to go to one of the Type O shows.

They returned to form on the album after BIN so get cracking with the buying!! SOL is the job and is one of my favourites. I was disapointed with BIN also but SOL really surpassed by expectations.

When was the last time you saw them? The Type O shows should be good, may get over for them, not really into Type O though. Ya i got my limited edition cd on oreder too along with the vinyl edition. Its gonna be tough to get the vinyl one though as there are only 2000 being made, balls.

It’s the limited vinyl version I’ve ordered…I’ll probably end up getting the CD as well.
It’s been 4 years since I saw ‘em, ‘93 on the SoL tour. This was the occasion when a brazier landed on Holmes’ head (twanged by ember, I believe).

I’m only getting the vinyl as a collectable…you get the CD with it anyway.
Yep, I am sailing around with my skull and crossbones flag flying, blasting out the new one. I like it, it’s a lot beefier than anything they’ve done recently and some great lead work…plus they’ve dropped the vocals I think someone round here described as sounding like Nick “taking a shit” :D

I think its great. Always like the orignal anyway. Everything But The Girl cove as a bonus track on the new one, should be interesting. They always make a decent job of cover versions anyway.
Any of ye check out the trailer for the documentry on the enemy cd? It looks promising.

I beg to differ. The PL version of ‘walk away’ beats the original by miles.
I’m with you on ‘death walks behind you’ and ‘how soon is now?’ though.
The best cover they did is ‘xavier’, I’m curious if they can beat that one this time around.

Isolation?
Don’t think the murdered Walk Away, how could they hehehe. SOM are cool, a bit of a laugh. Tought the Smiths one was good, nothing amazing, but it wasn’t shit. Anyway all of them were bsides or bonus tracks so…
Xavier was great, really different to the orignal.
Ya a cover of Holiday would be class, or ‘girls just wanna have fun’.

Kerappp!! reviewed the PL gig and gave it 3K’s. Usually half arsed nonsense from them, even waffled on about a song that they didn’t play at the gig. Shouldn’t be suprised, well i wasn’t to be honest. Check out WW for kerrang fuled hate haha.

To be honest mate I reckon all the hate mail they’ve received from PL fans (not to mention those embarrassing t-shirts Jon et al made a few years back) has only encouraged their negative coverage.

ah i don’t know, Kerrang were never big supporters anyway, the rot set in nearly 10 years ago. Some of the letters are a bit serious, mine was more tongue in cheek, but the review was a joke.
Finally got round to listening to the 2 track on the ecard thing, pretty good, hope the album delivers the goods.

The Enemy video is alright, better than many of their other ones. Ever seen The Last Time? shit.

Well, I think it’s a bit strange and a bit immature to send hate letters to a magazin, some people are jsut overreacting I guess. but each to their own. sure, the review is crap (the way it’s written and the content)
I don’t care much about music videos to be honest, I usually watch them once or twice and then lose interest. but ‘the last time’ is one shit video, it stuck in my head.
If you like the first two songs you’ll love the album. I’m listening to it a couple of times a day and it keeps growing and growing. so good luck with resisting the urge to download a sneak preview ;)
