    Trailer from the new Elliott Smith documentary. Should be very interesting and moving.

    Video doesn't seem to work but I'd be very interested in it as he's one of my very favourite artists.

    Beautiful Noise has been in the making for a few years now. Glad that it's finally seeing the light of day.

    Looks like we may be seeing some new MBV in 2015! :)
    From NME:
    My Bloody Valentine's Kevin Shields has revealed that the band plan to record a new EP this autumn.

    Speaking after a gig by The Proper Ornaments at the Lexington in London last night (June 19), Kevin Shields revealed he was "working on some new songs at the moment" that will form the basis of an EP.

    The release has been in the pipeline since last year's long-awaited 'm b v' album, but Shields is only now preparing to record the tracks. "We plan on going into the studio October/November time," he confirmed, raising prospects of an unusually prompt follow-up to My Bloody Valentine's third studio album.

    Epic night. Never been to Dan's Silverleaf before, but it turned out to be a great little venue. Some videos here, including a cover of Super Heroes from the Rocky Horror Picture Show and the aforementioned Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton.

    Head's wrecked trying to remember the name of a song. I can't remember the name of the artist either which doesn't help matters. Hopefully somebody here can help out.

    What I know:
    It's kind of an alt-country song by a male American solo artist.
    I'm nearly sure it's called something girl. Shooter Girl keeps coming into my head but it's not that.
    It's from the last five or six years.

    And that's about all I've got unfortunately. Any help appreciated.

    Beck 'Girl' from Guero 2005??

    Not an American solo artist, but it could be Country Girl by Primal Scream


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Neither of those two unfortunately.

    Nobody Girl by Ryan Adams? Tho that's way more than 6 years ago

    No. Not that either. Now this is probably of no help but I think it sounded a bit like Mockingbird by Tom Waits. Whoever sang this song is not very well known but he's definitely American.

    Boom! Brain spluttered into life a while ago and gave me the answer to my question. Song's called Fighter Girl by Mason Jennings. Love it.

    What ever happened to the Revs? They were huge in 2002/2003, played everywhere in Ireland and then just seemed to vanish.

    I saw them play at Oxegen 2005. I think they only released two albums. Their last one didn't seem to get much media attention and they must have split soon afterwards.

    Didn't the lead singer piss off to the Canaries or Lanzarote or somewhere. Think it was him who wrote that Donegal football 'Jimmy's Winning Matches'. Think one of them was from around these parts (Co. Louth) as well.
