In Reply to: Buzzcocks AND Joy D? Lucky Man. Aren't Oasis or Arctic Monkeys posted by tinear on March 18, 2007 at 07:13:51:
The Buzzcocks were a fantastic live band and their PA crew seemed to spend a lot of time and energy getting things right.
Joy Division could have been... at least had the potential to be ENORMOUS and have credibility at the same time.
There was a palpable aura about them. Curtis, like others, seemed to show something on stage that went straight to your heart/soul.
Follow Ups:
as Oasis's oeuvre, too.
Arctic Monkeys are the best group I've heard in years. Many of them.
They're as refreshing as the 'cocks or the Pistols were in their day. With My Morning Jacket and so many falsetto and sensitive groups on this side of the pond and so many bouncy Franz Ferdinand types over there, it was high time for a band to come along and kick the shit out of the scene again.
The AMs did it.
Unfortunately, it seems the line-up hasn't been able to stand the limelight: word is they've split.
Get the cd, it's very, very good.
I got their CD. I liked it for a couple of weeks. Never listen to it now. Sort of like Franz Ferdinand of the year before, catchy but lacking depth. Depth which I find still in both Joy Division and Oasis. After all these years, I still spin both once in a while and enjoy them as much as I ever did, or more. Who is around these days who will stand the test of time for me? One is Joseph Arthur, whose Redemption's Son is still on my playlist after a few years and I'm sure it will be for the rest of my life.
