how do u feel abt the band #the 1975#

THE 1975 The 1975 - Why is this album 16 tracks long? It's...not as bad as I expected! I mean, obviously it's horrible overproduced electro-rock crap of some base and abysmal order, but...it's listenable, plenty of sonic texture. These are the worst track-titles in the history of music, though - that's inescapable. I seriously can't imagine what sort of a terrible, terrible person you'd have to be to call your songs by these titles, especially in aggregation. It comes off like a list of vacuous lifestyle tropes, a sort of consumer-catalogue of topics The 1975's shadowy record-label cabal told them to write about. "Write songs about...the city, money, sex, girls, clothing, maybe a sexual encounter, maybe settling down with a loved one...and keep the titles simple". Clearly these 1975 boys have the imagination of a breezeblock. Right, starting to really, really hate the music as well. I know it's IMPOSSIBLY NOW, and yet this knotty paradox compels me to rid myself of it before it might perplex me entirely! I shall listen until 'Sex' just to see if I really can rile myself up into some sort of homicidal rage. Oh Christ, dear God. I shouldn't be listening any more. This is utterly loathsome, the textures of 'The City' long forgotten amidst shambling priapic aural vomit. FUCK OFF. Jesus, this is the worst album in the entire list so far, just hideous. AND YET I still have to listen to 'Sex'. I will refrain from typing until it's done. *3 agonising minutes pass* This isn't about Poptimism. These cunts are Glasvegas remanifest. GLASVEGAS.

it's cute looking back on those days when imago was young and naive and thought that song titles only functioned as representation oh wait

salmon is some glorious zenith of cordon bleu banality, and that photo could not have been improved upon in this regard

that salmon has a smattering of dill and is being presented as a luxury

would imagine the sloaney is heroically mundane with instances of obtuse idiocy that almost escape notice
the keyphrase in that article is prob 'taittinger is available by the glass', as cackhanded an appeal to either end of the finedining spectrum as I can imagine

taittinger nv is probably available by the glass in 100 london restaurants

youre not engaging here with all of the multitudes that the sloaney has to offer

Celebrate the start of the shooting season with some luxurious updates to your shooting attire. Look for the highest quality fabrics in warm shades of mink, chocolate and ochre.
Holland Cooper’s shooting coat is fully functional with an action back and sleeve to allow maximum movement and finished with wax details. A shooting waistcoat is a good piece to invest in. Perfect on warmer autumnal days or layered under a thick coat, this one by Really Wild is made from soft nubuck with deep pockets.

The treatment menu is focused on the Rose Infinity Collection. This uses Nobel Prize winning research that works at a cellular level to repair ageing DNA. It targets the anti-aging process, helps with hydration and is incredibly good for countering emerging fine lines. I couldn’t wait to walk into a treatment room for an hour of TLC.

i know those clothes only too well. clients' families, mostly, but a slightly less bloodthirsty selection adorns the dorset country home of my bff's mother, from whose hautebourgie trappings he is partially but never totally freed. by extension, the times i've spent there paint me guilty by association, although the wellies are only borrowed for expedience
― Ѿ (imago), Wednesday, 24 September 2014 23:25 (ten years ago) link
i must add that the wellies are plain rubber affairs & not leatherbuckled; there's far more tweed on display in the photos above

that was a separate affair, staying at a university bandmate's house in cambridgeshire for a week in 2008. they were possibly more genuinely outdoorsmanly than the sloaney standard; village-dwelling writer/publisher types with a fairly impressive array of arthouse cinema and literature. shooting coats were old, ragged and made of dark green vinyl - less glamour, more efficiency

He was noted for his many personal affectations, including proffering his hand in papal fashion, lapsing into Latin whilst speaking, and deliberately mispronouncing modern words.

if you had to introduce a single one of these affectations employed by your anglo-hellenic predecessor norman st john stevas into your personal brand, which would it be?

the same man and i say it here in the open so as he doesn't take it as an attack from anywhere but the front would maybe have to whittle out a few affectations to be left with only one of the above
