Introduction:-

Because Dave is incredibly lazy and hadn’t quite finished his idea, although to be fair let alone started it Stu sent him the A-Team theme and the introduction was born-hazar!

Song 1 – Muse – New Born

“Pomposity, bombast, pretension and prog-rock: they're four crimes that blight the landscape of modern music and Origin Of Symmetry--the second record by Teignmouth angst-rockers Muse--is guilty of every single one. But the truly astonishing thing about this record is the way it twists every one of these cardinal musical sins into spectacularly silly and starkly individual strengths. Where their debut album Showbiz was rightly dismissed as little more than Radiohead-lite, here Muse sound defiantly like their own band: on "New Born", they're torn somewhere between the purity of front man Matt Bellamy's angelic vocal tones and the corruption of a huge, dirty, distorted bass riff that electrifies the sound into crackling life; on the fraught, operatic "Bliss", they sound like an unholy--but very welcome--cross between synth-heavy Krautrock legends Tangerine Dream and youthful choirboy angst-peddlers JJ72; and even a wonderfully dippy take on the Nina Simone-popularised jazz standard "Feeling Good" is carried off with the requisite deadpan countenance. Bellamy's impassioned voice, in particular, is on spectacular form, soaring skywards until it cracks into a beautiful falsetto reminiscent of Jeff Buckley's greatest vocal moments. So gloriously overblown, it deserves to be huge--Origin Of Symmetry is a fascinating, flamboyant and satisfyingly individual album.�

The point of playing this song was skipped over. Dave went to see a free gig of theirs in Shepard’s Bush Empire with Irish Sarah who kindly managed to get free tickets-thanks! They have a new album out now-buy it!

Link One:-

Dave and Tyler say hello and give out the all important address and say, for once, what is coming up in the show! They make a last ditch attempt to get people to contact the show. Well it never hurts to try right? They move on to the Metro competition which as explained currently stand at 1-1. Tyler had a reply but Dave got a bigger letter-the arguments continue! Tyler then goes into a rant…this week about himself!

Song 2 – I need to find out the information….opps

Link Two:-

It all kicks off with Dave introducing Jamie who is currently in a secret location broadcasting from a donkey…apparently! Dave screws up and suggests that the World Cup final was played between Italy and Germany which is of course not true as it was between Italy and France. Jamie trys to tell us about the World Wife Carrying Competition and the Gay World Cup but it soon turns out that he knows nothing about either-no change there then. If you would like to find out more then check the links below.

Stu returns this week to talk about games…or the lack of them. Aside from telling us interesting things about Japanese women we learn about two new games currently in development. Prey and Darkstar One.

Song 3 - Machinae Supremacy – Seventeen

I couldn’t find a review of this band but they are cool and check them out on the Website below.

Link Three:-

Competition time. We launched a challenging competition last time for someone to simply write in and receive a prize! At time of recording no one had but Button Head was the first to leave a message on Myspace so congratulations to him for winning! More on Jaded lovers comes up as again the response has been very very limited, so Dave and Tyler put out a call for more lovers to get until contact with us.

Now on to the rap. Dave is still not quite sure about this but Tylers friend Joya asked him to do a white boy rap to which he kinda agreed and wrote one. Performed along with human beet box its either hilarious or painful-it’s still up in the air. The show closes with Dave badly telling the story about getting mugged which was not fun. I say badly because he actually forgets to tell the story.

Song 4 – Tool – Vicarious

“With a majority of the songs on 10,000 Days clocking in well past the seven-minute mark, you wouldn't be entirely mistaken in thinking that the title of the album refers to how long it actually takes to make it through the whole thing. Two of the tracks--the sitar and tabla enhanced "10,000 Days (Wings Part 2)" and its suitably epic psych-rock sister "Rosetta Stoned"--even linger on for nearly a dozen leisurely minutes each. That's delightful news for the legion of Tool fans that have been waiting five years for the follow-up to 2001's Lateralus, which debuted at number one and sold 2.3 million copies in the United States. Singer Maynard James Keenan is back on mystical form after his hiatus with the politically slanted

A Perfect Circle

, sounding at once ethereal and eloquent as he calmly charges through the metal tempest of the opening track "Vicarious." The rest of the band, meanwhile, hits a series of high-flying moments with tracks such as "Jambi" and "The Pot." When Tool sounds as good as it does on these songs it's hard to get enough. Which makes it all the more baffling that a surprisingly large chunk of the disc is given over to mood-enhancing soundscapes like "Lost Keys" and "Vigniti Tres." Who has time for filler?�
