So, do you really think Simple Minds went "crap"? Think again my friend. The band are back with the original line up and are ready to record new songs for their next album. What's more, SM are embarking on their 30th Anniversary UK tour in November and will perform the entirety of the 1982 album "New Gold Dream." You better get your South African ass over to the UK this November, if you want to see the band.
Speaking of crap... Crystal Castles are REALLY dreadful. Their album sounds cheap, nasty and uncool. As they say in show business, don't believe the hype. Other over-rated bands like The Gossip and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs were also championed. The only thing Crystal Castles has going for them is a great name. However, the music doesn't live up to their name. MGMT are also another new band that are the critics' favourite, but they, too, sound cheap and nasty.
Hello Anonymous, thank you for your comments, I look forward to hearing their new stuff with their original line-up. I really loved their early music from their first album right through to New Gold Dream, I also enjoyed Sparkle in the Rain but then they seemed to go very stadium rock, trying in a way to take on U2 head on. I think they lost that original creativity that they had when they made songs like I Travel etc. As to Crystal Castles, I really like the remix work they do, and I like the new album, it is quirky and original. The Gossip, I am not too enamoured with and also find them a bit overrated, but I do think that the Yeah Yeah Yeah's are pretty cool. It's all down to personal taste really. Thanks for your comments, they are appreciated and thanks for listening:) I do hope that SM can get back to their former pompous glory, they were great in their day
