SOLO ALBUM YES, PLS.

I tried to get over it, I tried not to care, but...I'm in love with Seanus' drumming in ME. Totally in love. I just can't help it.

I wish the National Treasures dvd came with a commentary. Alright, it'd probably just be James and Nicky taking the piss out of each other and Sean sitting there, but it could've been fun.

JFPL is such a good album, and I think a lot of that's down to the standard of lyrics. Say what you want about Richey, but his lyrics are a damn sight more fascinating than Nicky's. I guess I like that broad expressionist stroke.

I hadn't realised how good the solo in The Everlasting is. Nothing flashy just superb tone and feel.

Speaking of solos, the one in Intravenous Agnostic is bloody brilliant, manic (ho ho ho) and one of James' best.

Yes! This is true. Amazing sounding song in general, just a shame about the lyrics

I like the lyrics. They're an insane stream of consciousness which fits perfectly with the song's frantic, bursting-through-the-seams rock insanity. Like many KYE songs, a song that would make an amazing live spectacle but HERP DERP MANICS DERP.

Got some of Wire's best backing vocal action too. WHAT A MESS.

My Intravenous Agnostic love will never die, that song is perfection, rambling and eloquent and fantastic. The intro sends shivers down my spine.

Intravenous Agnostic is amazing. I do sort of like the lyrics, but I still have no idea what they mean.

Oh, and for that matter, KYE is a fantastic album overall.

That acoustic version of Intravenous Agnostic was awesome also.

I really like this review of Lifeblood, even if it is really poorly written.

Richey's last gig. 17 years ago today. Which is terrifying.
