Nef's British Music Thread.

Peter Hammill - New Pen-Pal (2012)

Plan B... Because he is a-ma-ZING live. (Even if he didn't play this, my favourite song!)



Example... Because I'm hoping he'll be just as good (and if not, almost!)



Frightened Rabbit... Because these guys are beautiful.



All of which are new(ish) and British!

The masters of the genre return...

Depeche Mode - Heaven

I was there, right at the front. Way closer than that lot.


And here. Right at the front. Although, it was better the 2nd time...

Judy Dyble - Summer Gathers

The Kinks ...... F O R E V E R ! ! ! ! ! ! ! (Rush Hour Blues from Soap Opera)

While I'm posting this, my wife is watching the Beeb (America), The First Doctor Special ! ! ! ! ! !

So. Much. LOVE for these boys.

First band I ever saw live (even if they weren't playing instruments!) and I don't think I'll ever tire of them. The music has always been and will always be completely amazing.

They really are Fantastic! and yeah well you tend not to forget your first concert I'm extremely gutted that i couldnt get tickets to see them live too. Would have completed the set

Its the fact that they came out of busted shadow, no one expected them to make it huge and they stuck around and look at them now! come through everythign and are still going.

Keep it up XD

I mean come on you can't say they can't sing or they can't play




i mean look at them go

Poor Harry...



That song is beautiful though. They work together as a band incredibly well. Their voices sound amazing together and Tom's guitar skills... Just wow. He's one of my heroes. How can I possibly pay homage to him more? I mean, I could copy one of his tattoos.

Yeah. I could do that.

The big foot one.

I wish i could still play the guitar like that... might have to practice a bit more!!

The harmony that they create especialy in an accoustic set just proves their brilliance and poor harry sitting there on his phone!

Tho i would have deffinatly been on the floor laughing at them messing about!


oooo you should deffinatly do that, that would be brilliant i really like dannys too... hmmm i might join you except not on the foot lol

Also just in the video.... how much does dougie sound like the ginerbread man!!


im sorry but if thats not a skill too i dunno what is! Their lyrics are always brilliant too, they must spend ages actually writing stuff instead of just produing over synthesised rubbish with no instruments in at all.

I like the fact they have matching band tattoos. It's sweet. I wouldn't be able to get one on my foot though But we blatantly should get sorta matching band tattoos when our band kicks off. (as if!!)

reply to post by Ayana


Yeah I know! its really sweet, just shows the sense of freidnship they have doesnt it?

Perhaps not be the best idea for you to get one on your foot yeah, but yeah im deffiantly up for that ill get matching tattoos once our band actually kicks off

Followed Foxes for a couple of years. Quirky.
