ah I love The Cribs, Ross walked past the stand I was working at Reading and I got him to sign my top, so chuffed.

Although didnt enjoy the bit of the set I saw at Reading I cant complain though I saw them at Kings College last Tuesday and that was fab

carroteater · 2008-08-27 02:30:37

ah! love em too! funny cuz just today i remembered one friend didnt return the cribs CDs i lent him >

but yea a friend [actually complete stranger... but for the sake of the flow of the story] told me to check em out, and at first i was like my god- the singing is atrocious. but it really grew on me and now i love it hahah he really does have an awesome voice. not saying the singings exactly amazing still, but like, really whatever haha.

Dan&ThePirates · 2008-08-27 10:22:27

I think they're ok, Lyrically pretty sound.

Joeliath · 2008-08-27 14:09:57

I can't remember who it was, i think it was Colin Murray or Steve Lamacq said that they're like their alternative to RATM because of the way they get their messages across in their songs, but the songs are catchy as hell!

the 3rd is a hit though

I love the cribs sometimes i hate his voice though so i've gotta be in the mood!
i saw the cribs at the NME tour in Manc academy and Ryan stage dived on me! WOO!
a proud moment lol, catching a sweaty semi-naked man!

Joeliath · 2008-08-31 12:10:12

I started with their third and loved it, then listened to the second and loved that.

I've still yet to hear the first

for me its the other way round
I loved the 1st and 2nd album
3rd album took them playing it live in order at Cribsmas before I fell for it

I love the messiness of the 1st two and the rough edges
this new polished line they are taking I find harder to love

however I do keep finding myself singing be safe or I'm a realist

That's what i love about new fellas. They just sound messy and amateur and it's good!

MNWNW (short code for the 3rd album ) sounds too well done!

Gotta love the rough edges!

carroteater · 2008-09-01 00:12:51

i got all three albums at the same time so for me i didnt have a prefrence for one over another, but i could def tell which was their earlier stuff compared to their

but yea i agree that like rough, amature quality made them sound reaally good. sorta like they have the brains for the music but not the right stuff to get it out with?

Joeliath · 2008-09-01 13:36:27

The third album attracts all the fools into the NME/Radio 1 tent whho only know Men's Needs.....then stand around and don't jump....making me look like a fool when i'm the only one within a 2 metre radius jumping up and down going crazy!

carroteater · 2008-09-01 14:55:34

i just noticed your signature thing is a cribs quote hahah hey scenesters right?

moomin · 2008-12-08 12:17:41

the dvd is available for preorder now

I cannot wait
cribsmas was one of the best things i have done going to be great to relive it

carroteater · 2008-12-08 22:29:17

moomin · 2008-12-08 22:43:00

carroteater · 2008-12-09 20:11:22

carroteater · 2008-12-09 20:13:32

carroteater · 2008-12-10 02:51:12

ah thanks

moomin · 2008-12-15 00:03:09

so do they deliver abroad?

I am waiting eagerly for this to land on my door mat
getting the chance to relive those three gigs is pretty amazing

they have announced a new UK tour
was aiming for London only but somehow have managed to get tickets for Manchester and Bradford as well
meant knocking seeing Chiefs in Vienna on the head

carroteater · 2008-12-18 00:19:43

3rd album is one of the best i've heard in the last 10 years. That good in my book.
Tickets went on sale for Heaven at 9.30 and when i got through at 9.40, f*ckin sold out ;'( . They didn't bother with a presales link for registerd fans the gits. Anyone finds themselves with a spare & they'd like to offer it to a Pirate i'll pay some decent money

moomin · 2009-01-02 16:09:04

dude they went back on sale at 3
I have learnt if tickets sell out quick try again throughout the day cos they usually come back on sale when cards get refused or they recount what they have

I will keep an eye out for you neat beats
and keep an eye on their forum they usually spring spares nearer the time
scarlet mist is another good place to keep an eye on
