A zillion times better than that boring Darkness album. Plus, male AND female vocals. And it rocks. And it's only 30 minutes long. And it has a better title:Mouthful Of Love.

And i can actually listen to the whole thing.

Yeah, they are kind of intriguing.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 18:15 (twenty-two years ago)

I've still never heard The Darkness.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 18:15 (twenty-two years ago)

You don't need to hear The Darkness. Believe me. They are lame.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 18:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Forget about the Darkness, tell me more about these folks. Website?

I have a 7" somewhere. "Tommy Shots" or something?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 18:53 (twenty-two years ago)

oh no. oh please god no. they're probably the worst band that i ever willingly went to see. ned, they're on xl.

XL can be both a warning sign and a bit of potential goodness depending.

I saw them live last year, but the only thing I can remember about them was that they had interesting hair. But at least that's better than the headliners for that gig. I don't remember a single thing about them at all.

― jellybean (jellybean), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 19:09 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't care if they suck live. I'm not going to see them live, I'm gonna listen to the record and the record is really good. And I don't give a shit what label they are on either. Don't know if they have a website, i'll check.

Here's the Beggars page on them:

Sez one of their b-sides is an AC/DC cover they did with Lemmy.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 21:00 (twenty-two years ago)

And they've toured with the darkness and motorhead.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 21:01 (twenty-two years ago)

i think the female singer is (or at least was at the end of last year), going out with justin hawkins.

she has a mullet.. i don't know if those two facts are related

― jellybean (jellybean), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 21:12 (twenty-two years ago)

She sounds like one of the singers in all-grrl 70's band Fanny.

PRODUCED BY CLIFF JONES OF GAY DAD!!!!

(i love the album, but prefer the single version of "mouthful of love")

i reckon this deserved more of a reaction

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 22 April 2004 23:05 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think anyone has heard the album.

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 22 April 2004 23:40 (twenty-two years ago)

i have! i bought it a couple of weeks ago.

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 22 April 2004 23:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I mean besides you. And me. But when they do, I want them to come crawling back to this thread on their hands and knees and admit how lame the darkness are.

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 22 April 2004 23:45 (twenty-two years ago)

I admit I'm bemused about the Cliff Jones connection. But the drummer, now where is he again.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 23 April 2004 00:17 (twenty-two years ago)

off being an avatar to aheadness somewhere

― the surface noise (electricsound), Friday, 23 April 2004 00:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I drift, serene.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 23 April 2004 00:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I do remember Cliff Jones was going off about how brilliant they were in 2001, for some reason. There was even a Gay Dad bside called "Young Heart Attack".

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 23 April 2004 01:37 (twenty-two years ago)

I absolutely love this album, it's like Kix with a girl singer. "Starlight" is so unabashedly upbeat, it's unreal.

― abegrand, Friday, 23 April 2004 04:35 (twenty-two years ago)

it's like Kix with a girl singer.

Chuck to thread!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 23 April 2004 04:36 (twenty-two years ago)

five years pass...

only just discovered there's a second album, and it's good! less flashy than the debut but more consistent and more fun. i hope they have an imperial teen-esque type career..

― private static void (electricsound), Thursday, 30 April 2009 00:36 (seventeen years ago)

Man, did I love that last album. Seems so long ago.

― A. Begrand, Thursday, 30 April 2009 00:40 (seventeen years ago)

it seems like 400 lifetimes ago. i don't think i've even heard the album i started this thread about since i started this thread. that album disappeared without a trace. and, ew, i wrote about it for stinky magnet magazine. what was i thinking?

― scott seward, Thursday, 30 April 2009 00:50 (seventeen years ago)

i listen to the debut every now and again, still like it a lot, though i probably listen to the last sixteen deluxe 45 more.

― private static void (electricsound), Thursday, 30 April 2009 00:53 (seventeen years ago)

I'm alive
