Kaiser Chiefs

I really like the Kaiser Chiefs now. I predict a riot was brill, and oh my God was really good too. But the one that has got me is the new song everyday i love you less and less. I love that song!

What do you think of them?

Their music doesn't do anything for me.

I think its really fun, it totally gets me moving. The lead singer is really cool too.

you know what i love?

NME..... oh wait, no they just told me to say that

I do infact like NME, they talk about the bands i like.

Its better than reading Kerrang.

i redict a riot is good...the rest of the album was disapointingly dull

Hahahahaha, NME better than Kerrang.

NME jump on the cock of whoever is popular then deny they ever liked them whenever the spotlight isn't on them anymore. Bunch of know nothing morons.

Kerrang have some shit writers but the best writers from Kerrang tower over anything ever produced by NME ever.

I got that NME magazine yesterday - and someone stole the promo CD off the cover ... grrrrr

are Kaiser Chiefs really that great? just curious... love brit music!

the bar i go to we get given NME magazines free 😕

Allow me to express my sorrow for you.

-AC

😂 i dont buy magazines, im too poor..

well there arent many brit magazines in america.. that are easy to find... and NME is easy to find at Borders- like $5.50 - which is sort of expensive for a little magazine...

NME isnt that bad...

Yeah, it is. It's shit. Compared to good magazines.

However in your case, you don't get many magazines. So compared to nothing, NME may seem passable.

-AC

magazines are geared towards certain markets... kerrang for metal fans and NME for indie/alternative bands...if you want to pigeon hole genres in that way

i personally think kerrang is total shit because i think the bands it features are total shit

but we have been through this debate before

Mastodon, Slayer, Nine Inch Nails, Queens of the Stone Age, Incubus, Foo Fighters, Chili Peppers Vs The Bravery, Razorlight, The Killers, Keane, Coldplay.

Yeah, NME clearly has a wealth of amazing bands compared to the people who Kerrang interview.

NME don't just feature shit bands, they have shit writers and they are a shit magazine. They are a bunch of know nothing, trend hopping, band blowing morons.

Proof? Pablo Honey. "Radiohead will never ever get out of the shadow of Creep, ever." Then OK Computer rolled around. "We always knew they had this potential."

Yeah sure.

a history of NME

championing of influential band The Smiths, at a time when both mainstream media and the charts were immune to their charms during the mid 1980s

first magazine to put Stone Roses, Blur, Oasis, Radiohead, U2, Manic Street Preachers and Eminem on the cover

The first publication in the world to extensively cover Punk, with the first reviews ever of The Sex Pistols, The Clash, and The Stranglers

i'd say they have championed many a good and influential band over the years

cant say i like some of the stuff they are going on about now...most of them seem to be white stripes meets the thermals...and i hate the thermals

but we have been through all this before...different strokes for different folks

They were the first to put Eminem on the cover, so? Big deal.

The Stone Roses, Oasis and U2 don't impress me either. More to the point, when did covers matter to the content of a publication? They have a bunch of fashion fellators writing for them.

I already showed what they did with Radiohead and what they continue to do. They like every band that sounds the same because that way they can just write the same review in slightly changed overtones and have all the NME readers follow. In Kerrang you can read a Foo Fighters review next to a NIN review next to a Slayer review.

Yeah, different strokes and all that but it being the first to do something and then becoming the worst to do that same thing is possibly the worst progression ever. Which NME have achieved.

the same NME that interiewed trent reznor a couple of weeks ago?

Yeah, the same Trent Reznor who's also on tour and releasing an album soon. The same Trent they didn't give a shit about till Kerrang featured an article on him.

-AC

Ok this thread isnt Nme vs Kerrang.

I do think that nme have a tendincy to do what AC was saying. But ive always felt that kerrang are a little to impoinated and are most for 13 year old slipknot fans, but i still buy both if they feature a band that i like.

The only mag i buy reigoeusly is Q, but thats only because they have interesting interviews and lots of reviews.

Anyway lets get back to the topic.
