    Wen

    Album out next week. http://boomkat.com/vinyl/933692-wen-signals Feels like it's been a long time coming but I'm looking forward to it. Never got fully into the new 130 thing, but they have (he has?) more of a distinct sound.

    Ashes 2013

    It's taken me a while but I'm excited now. I predict 3-1 to England. Anyone else interested? Edit: I couldn't open the 2009 thread when I posted the above for some reason but I can now. Here's what I wrote at the start of that. All Hail Nostradamus! All questions bar number 2 still apply...

    Running your own website

    Does anyone on here have their own website? Obviously there's the bloggers among you. How's that working out? I kind of want one, but I've looked at wordpress/ blogger and they don't really do what I want. I'd like to be able to post more complicated visuals, eg google charts and what have...

    Four Lions - mild spoilers inside

    Anyone else seen this? If not, mild spoilers below So stop reading I though tit was pretty good, pretty funny. The writers are the two who do Peep Show, as well as Chris Morris, so there's good pedigree there. I thought the central idea - UK suicide bombers as berks - has plenty of comic...

    Disco Ragas house music from Bombay

    So have people heard this?Apparently it's from 1982. Is it some elaborate prank - house music before house music, coming from Mumbai rather than Chicago? Does it matter? It's good stuff either way

    It's The Ashes!

    Deserving of its own thread, surely. So, five questions. 1) What will the score be? 3-1 Aus. Sadly. 2) How many tests will Flintoff manage? I reckon 2 - the first two. 3) Will there be anything as funny as Gary Pratt running out Ponting? No. Nothing that funny has ever happened before or...

    It Felt Like A Kiss

    Anyone been to see this? http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/video/2009/jun/18/adam-curtis-punchdrunk-it-felt-like-a-kiss I was in Manchester at the weekend and went along. You go in very small groups (about half a dozen) and failed Gordon Brown assassin James Purnell was in mine, which was a bit...

    Newswipe

    Anyone watching this new Charlie Brooker series on BBC4? It's a really intelligent sort of media studies programme, in effect. I suppose the idea comes from on an episode of Screenwipe he did about tv news, which was utterly fantastic. The one this week was about citizen journalism and then...

    Africa Cup of Nations

    Anyone else watching this? It's fcking brilliant, more goals, more attacking, fewer dives and whinges than the world cup or euros. Currently watching Angola v Senegal, which is a great game. Chuffed to bits cos I had a bet on Angola at 9/2 and they're 3-1 up. I've seen most teams so far, and off...
