The Wildhearts

Listened to it on headphones (for the first time) and god it has gone up in my estimations. I've always liked it but it truly is a work of immense talent.

LISTEN TO IT THROUGH (good quality) HEADPHONES!

PS Sorry to bring this up again!!!

Oh, is it already the time of year for an EN debate?

There's some great tracks on there. Such as Anthem. (Did anyone else catch that on tv when it was on TOTP? Pretty entertaining stuff.)

I saw Anthem when it was on TOTP... It was on just after I went to see the WH at the Shepherds Bush gig of the tour... My high frequencies were still shot, so I could barely hear the guitars... I remember wondering why everyone was so sweaty, and then found out it was cos they played a ten minute version...

Is there a copy of the ten minute version knocking around anywhere?

I really quite like EN but I have to be in the mood to listen to it.

If that makes any sense.

Controversially, Endless Nameless is possibly my joint favourite Wildhearts album,:shock:

I saw 'Anthem' on TOTP (not realising it had been re-recorded for the show) and thought it was fantastic and sounded great. Went out and bought the single - thought 'This sounds complete shit' and was very disappointed so didn't buy the album...

Not my favourite album, but my favourite one to listen to loud and drunk after a shit break-up. So I listen to it a lot....

What, ever??

Ditto on playing it loud and drunk; also in the dark; and on really good headphones - or a stereo with a big sub. Anthem is especially fun in my car (apart from the drunk part, obviously occifer ).

I'm not a big fan of EN either but for some reason I like Junkenstein the best, even though it is probably the song most representative of the EN style. Does that make me fickle?

Keep it up son, take a look at what you could've won!

I'm not entirely sure what happened to my EN.. I had 2 copies, as I won a signed one from Melody Maker (plus a large signed bottle of Jack Daniels.. which was nice!)

And now I can't find either.

been tempted to buy it for ages as someone on the mailing list sent it me but my hard drive died !
my mate says i can have it off him when he finds it so i might resist the URGE a bit longer

I'M LISTENING TO IT VERY LOUDLY RIGHT NOW EVEN THOUGH I'M SUPPOSED TO BE DOING REVISION FOR MY FINALS AND I'M PROBABLY DAMAGING MY HEARING QUITE BADLY

*grin*
No, you'll probably just end up quoting the lyrics in your exam paper by accident. (Course, I used to have competitions with friends to see who could get the most song lyrics into our GCSE papers..)

What's the exam, anything interesting?

I've got my Samuel Beckett exam tomorrow and on Saturday it's Modern Scottish Fiction.

I'm an English student, like.
