Heard the cd.It sure does.I really like the album.No one off killers but as a body of songs together they really work.Love Proxy and the lyrics to Idolness "and beauty wearing off,you must be wary of...the idolness of gods".Great stuff.Neverending is a very strong track as well.Drivetime makes sense as well.Haters of WYGDWYL probably wont like it though its fair to say.

That Shroud of Turin lyrical wrap is magic "I love that you're from Turin,I love that sack that you're in,I love you're saccharin".(i think thats what he sings).

you got a freebie too smiff? geez. (i think thats the phrase, or is it a j?) so you score points for mentioning the words. kelley loses a couple for mentioning only the guitars. (by the mac marking scheme given in recent interview)

Chez.

The album is good.Trust me I'm a doctor.But be prepared for lot of over-miserable hyberbole from the Mac solo song haters on this forum.It IS a Mac album but its a big pop rush which I like alot.Girsl Aloud v The Velvet Underground.

Idolness is like a more developed When It All Blows Over.Mac's voice sounds great-only really TINIT where its raspy.Turin has this spindly great vibrato guitar bit from Will.

i wonder what the 'loud girls would say to that, wouldn't mind seeing that ginger one in her shiny shiny shiny boots of leather. What I'm most worried about is, considering the buns recent business model is that I'll buy it and two weeks later they'll start giving it away. just kidding obviously.

When it all blows over is probably the best song on waygtdwyl, though it seems not many other people like it.

on another note are there any meets set up for the roundhouse gig?

ahhh lights going out and a kick in the balls. But i think youre overstating your importance KOK. and after the glasgow incident i'm not sure it'd be what they are after. In the hypothetical case would you accept a backstage pass?

Classic Smith!
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

It isn't like you actually had to pay for it. Being free should give it a few extra points whatever it sounds like.
