Should have perhaps ended at 3:43.

False ending. gaah

Actually, this part isn't that bad. It's upbeat at least.

This is the best bit of the album, so far.

by Butterfield Wed Oct 25, 2023 7:48 pm

More like something Primal Scream would have done.

Going epic.

Or the Soup Dragons.

If they did any other songs.

Over.

Not a tracy o'baggy. Just a 60s cover band who'd heard a Can album.

It is over.

It was inoffensive enough but did sound like early REM trying to be the Byrds and ending up being the Monkees.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I shall give it 3 stars.

Well, considering I never got to hear my favourite Stone Roses song, that wasn't actually quite as bad and boring as I was expecting. I certainly didn't love it, but there were some decent moments in there - a lot of obvious rip-offs of other stuff, but tolerable.

3/5

This is the circa 1999 Fools Gold "dance" version. It's basically just sped up.

2.5.

Downgraded for Ian Brown to ★★.
