cheers zombeaver, that worked a treat. not bad either...two thumbs up

love that one neil (whoops ive admittied it now)

hey zombeaver, I cant see any of those videos... maybe they're not available to the uk via youtube... booo.... just says this video is not available

I'm not a fan either :-O

lovin this... not sure exactly why, other than I cant get it out of my head

quite imperfect....anyone want to use it in a Bigbox video? https://soundcloud.com/user715479579/instrumental-1

ive just discovered alt-j... dodgy tache and all... fantastic music

Ha, love it....damn, I have no such claim to fame. I'm from Bedford and the nearest thing to a band to come from here is the bass player from the quireboys

just seen/heard this for the first time. had me in stitches

and on the other hand, I still think this is amazing

you were right about x japan, is suppose at the time they must have sounded good though. I used to listen to loads of thrash...man I have mellowed so much. used to love this tune, but find it hard to stomach now.

I get you, that must be why I like it. love the vocals. quite like of monsters and men but mumford and sons..they're not quite my bag..i like a bit of grit, I my music (not in my food though) and mumford and sons are a little too smooth (I'm not sure that's the right word) and definatley far too stadium/arena rock/folk for me... its a fine line, I'm sure

cool, you heard of "Deer Tick"?? check em out... indie folk rock.... amazing live too

Hey, @Zombeaver, I understand what you're sayin. The country of origin doesn't really come into the equation..just seems to be the pattern (for me) at the moment. have you heard of the barr brothers? they sound kind of like The Oh Hellos (well...ish):

David Bowie was pure class. I don't like a lot of his stuff but there is no denying he was in a league, pretty much of his own

Hi @Zombeaver, yeah I've heard of kasabian... loved their first album, since then I think they've gone downhill and have become a much more commercial entity but that happens when you're successful....you want more of it. either that or your record company push you for more of it. just for the record, I'm from England and at the moment I have a real preference for American bands, especially if they're up and coming or just striving for some kind of success. the music most bands make at that point seems more real and a lot easier to connect with. the scene, seems to ebb and flow between Europe and America..i tend to follow what excites me musically. in the mid '90s it was indie and a lot of that was coming from the uk in the form of 'britpop', image isn't as important to me as it used to be since then ive grown bored with commercial rock and tried to find something that feels more real.

this tune is totally doing it for me at the moment

These images are amazing :-) a really nice surprise. thank you very much @GiantTitan
