Anarchy doll 03-03-2005 07:59 AM

Anarchy doll 03-03-2005 08:38 AM

ok, I've decided after listening to about 6 downloads...the Kills kick ass...always nice to hear a chick singing rock/punk.....

Sneer 03-03-2005 08:43 AM

your correct there.

Anarchy doll 03-03-2005 06:17 PM

yeah, Courtney Love and the chick from the distillers are so sexy....just that attitude! And the funny thing is, I'm a chick! LOL!

Sneer 03-04-2005 08:43 AM

ABSLUTELY NOTHING wrong with girls finding other girls sexy, in fact- im glad to see it.

I have this E.P. In the depths of my record collection by an obscure band called Scarfo from 1996.

Apparently they were put together by Jamie Hince aka Hotel.

Weird how these things turn up

Anarchy doll 03-04-2005 05:34 PM

Anarchy doll 03-30-2005 06:09 PM

**** the people!

Jaz 03-31-2005 04:11 AM

For a minute there I misread this thread as The Stills...

Anarchy doll 03-31-2005 07:35 AM

so any thoughts on the Kills then?

Jaz 03-31-2005 12:13 PM

I can't really say I'm a huge fan. Had the opportunity to see them live but wasn't too fussed over the ticket so gave it to a friend. I can see why folk like them, but they aren't my cuppa tea.

Anarchy doll 03-31-2005 06:54 PM

I wouldna given up the opportunity to a concert though.....

The Kills
 
Just seen a cool little set of vids, featuring Alison Mosshart of The Kills fame.

She is getting fashionably poetic for this clothing collection. Check it out to see this multi talented songstress!

Fuck the people!

I was recently introduced to this band by a friend, they are fucking great. They embody all the best things about the 00s music scene.

downwardspiral 04-30-2010 09:02 AM

Very, very average band. They have a couple of okay songs but nothing which makes me want to go back and listen regularly. The only song I really like is Black Balloon.

The Monkey 07-05-2011 10:34 AM

Anyone listened to their new album, Blood Pressures? It's rather good.

What I love about the Kills is that while their production is innovative and layered, they have (unlike Yeah Yeah Yeahs for instance) retained the harder edge to their sound that defined the early albums. If you're a fan of minimalistic Indie rock, you will love these guys.

Blood Pressures is a pretty good album. I wouldn't say it's entirely consistent though, none of their albums really are, I don't really like 'Nail In My Coffin' and there's one or two filler tracks as well that don't really grab my attention. But with songs like 'Future Starts Slow', 'DNA' and 'Damned If She Do' it gets a thumbs up from me.

PoolGuy 07-15-2011 03:21 PM

Don't hate me but I can't stand The Kills!

DeadChannel 06-03-2016 10:13 AM

Necro-bumping because the new album. Discuss.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 06-03-2016 07:34 PM

My first experience with the group, made it half way through the album and my feelings are pretty neutral. Normally my opinions change after a few listens, so I'll definitely get back around to it soon, but a little disappointing nonetheless.

I'm enjoying it for what it's worth so far, but imo it's probably the weakest thing in their discography. I dig the new vaguely hip-hop influenced direction, but I'd like to see it done justice. Their debut is still a masterpiece though, imo.

That's what set me off a little bit. Wasn't sure if the hip-hop influence was just part of their sound or if it was a new direction, but for something tagged as garage rock, it definitely caught me off guard.

the kills are a great band

no wow was the album that got me into them and then into the dead weather as well

another cool band but not as good as the kills imo

DeadChannel 06-04-2016 07:57 PM

^The debut Dead Weather album is pretty good, but the new one is weak.

Agreed, but their second record is pretty dope as well. Horehound though, that's my shit.

Ok. I'm going to check them out. Thanks.

DeadChannel 06-08-2016 04:21 PM

^I think Blood Pressures got them a lot of new fans. I agree that Keep on Your Mean Side is their best effort, though.
