_____This speaks for itself really. There’s not all that much I can say about this album. Because any of you with even slightly rock-orientated of music tastes have already heard this album. And for the chart monkeys, this album, unfortunately, isn’t going to do whack for you. It is what it is. A ridiculous supergroup comprising of Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, and John Paul Jones. Making music like this.
_____Them Crooked Vultures pose quite a conundrum for the music community in that technically speaking, they suck. Logically, they must do, because it’s a supergroup. Golden rule of supergroups is that they absolutely must suck. Unfortunately, Them Crooked Vultures is to rock fans what glue is to a four year old. They’re against the rules, you’re not supposed to want to like them, but, upon indulgence, they are fucking divine. The high isn’t quite as good though, but it’s close.
_____I’m now going to present the main article for the prosecution in the case of “Oxegen sucks and you should all be going to Leeds”. Last summer, these guys were there. Set opener Elephants set the pace for what would have been my favourite set of the weekend had I not OD’d on pure awesome music halfway through personal favourite Scumbag Blues.
_____Unfortunately, it looks like TCV are going to be scooped up by Glastonbury this summer, and will only make a few other appearances around Europe, but sure, you can always just plug in your iPod during Kasabian’s lacklustre headline set and pretend it’s the real deal. New album is on the way, and you can bet your hole it’ll be on this list next Christmas, assuming Santa brings me the TCV album for 2010 that I so desperately requested.
