Anyone got this album? Thoughts?
- max_prophet0
umm it's by the streets, do you even need to ask?
Just listening to that ^ intro is hard enough.

Thought it was interesting - a different direction...
- max_prophet0
a new direction.
But ultimately – shite.
- thismanslife0
Have you heard it?
- max_prophet0
Of course not. I'm entirely prejudging based solely on my disapproval of the shite that has come before it.
And yes, I also judge books by covers, people by their shoes and children should be seen and not heard.

Shit, just like the last 3 albums. I think the abundance of money and opportunity for well funded experimentation has made mister Skinner a twat-tard.

I liked the track Heaven for the Weather, which surprised me.

They're extremely hit or miss.

Life is really what it is, I look at my bird and she looks back, then she looks up, then down again at her feet and I look at her a bit more and then she looks away, and I look down just as she looks back at me, then she walks away, she simply walks away and i watch her walk away, then i have a bit of a look at my jacket, then my shoes, then i look at her and she is looking at a dog what is looking at the post office, yeah, yeah, life is really what it is...
Chorus:
Life is what it is, listen listen, oi, listen,
Life is what it is, oi listen listen, oi
oi,
oi.I leave my flat early, off to buy some fags from mr patel, fags from patel, fags from patel, I'm in there regular, he knows me well, I call my bird up, she's got the hump on, got the humpon, I think she's sitting on a tampon
I look at the sky, then I look down, and across the road a bit, then I look back at my feet then up to the sky, up to the sky, asking lots of questions, asking lots of why, oi... oi, shut it. I have another look at my jacket. I was going to eat my sandwich, but I forgot to pack it.
Chorus:
Life is what it is, listen listen, oi, listen,
Life is what it is, oi listen listen, oi
oi,
oi.My mates getting lairey, in the chip shop frowin fings at some fairy, fairy finks its scary, oi, oi .... scarey. I look at my jacket, then I look at my mobile phone and my bird rings, so I talk to my bird, oi, oi... geezer, she's got the hump, and I've got my jacket, and my shoes, I lack the emotional depth to express anything valuable so I make up rhymes about my shoes, and my jacket, and my bird, and my shoes... but I'm too busy trying to make the transition, from halfwit gobshite staying in a marriot, to halfwit gobshite street geezer's poet laureate. oi, oi watch it, oi, shut it, shut it, cuz I'm sensitive and thoughtful, and I've got my jacket on.

I remember the first time I heard Original Pirate Material. I was whilst driving along the Westway out of London just above as the sun went down, and it sounded really great and I loved it instantly, so I'll give him that.
Everything else though... sheeeeite.
