I was very surprised to read an article about the Factory/Hacienda in the New York Daily News. They also announced the opening of 24hr people on Friday. Truly...
i'd say the bits about jd are correct (apart from ian's death scene) and as for the happy monday..im not so sure..as im not a fan of them. its a good film...
i've read that ian was a big fan of T.S. Elliot. is anyone else here a fan of elliot? or what poetry do you like to read? i'm a fan of sylvia plath and arthur...
Don't like sylvia plath at the moment because everyone does (especially people who haven't read any!!!) and (Jean Nicholas) Arthur Rimbaud is my hero eternal...
I like Adrienne Rich, Gwendolyn Brooks, Poe, and Plath, Shakespeare ( including the plays but there is more inspired poetry that he wrote, and I cannot for the...
I saw 24hrpp today, and I liked the movie overall. I loved the music. It was very self-aware and at times bittersweet. It was part truth and legend. The acting...
yeah it is a good movie..the scenes depicting ian's death were (factually) incorrect but i don't think any of us could expect a graphic depiction of his...
Thanks for your input! However I would like to clarify the piece on Ian's death. I actually felt that the moviemakers should have made Ian's death a bit more ...
was it the best record label ever?! i'd say it was, but with 4AD a close second, as 4AD had Bauhaus, Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, Clan Of Xymox and Xmal...
... Les Temps Modernes is amazing. I don't know that I think they are better than Factory, but it makes it easier for me to wake up every day knowing that...
no, you said it yourself: '4AD had Bauhaus, Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance...' and don't forget pixies. sure, joy division is great, but the rest of the bands...
I think SY joined Geffen basically because they were able to secure a contract where they could release basically whatever type of music they wanted...I also...
Factory is the "legendary dramatic/darkly artistically beautiful" record label so it wins for me on that account. Joy Division and the legend of Joy Division,...
My list is, as I said, LTM, Factory Benelux, Factory, and then 99 Records (American label, home to ESG [who were on Factory] and Liquid Liquid), then 4AD...
changing the subject slightly..what about best record label boss? i'd still opt for tony wilson..because, depsite being a "twat" (as he's labelled in 24hpp),...
Hey folks, Just got back from the V2002 and Leeds festivals and as always you come back from festivals with loads of stoney utopian ideas about setting the...
No, Tony Wilson didn't believe in some of the bands on his label, which is why Crispy Ambulance, Minny Pops, and The Names were shifted to Factory Benelux....
changing the subject a bit (again), what do you all think of tony's decision to ask paul morley to write "the book" straight after ian's death? and making him...
A book? Tres tacky... But what do you expect? Tony is in this to get paid like everybody else. The 24hrpp soundtrack... I was going to buy it but I changed my...
has anyone else here read his book, "the atrocity exhibition"? it's a very experimental book, but one thats quite vivid in its use of horrific imagery. it's a...
. . .sometimes. when i feel that things are at thier worst. worse than possible. i soothe myself with the sweet voice of ian. and the haunting echoes of the...
welcome to unknown pleasures nox......i know what you are saying...i sometimes dont know how to describe how listening to jd makes me feel...it makes me feel...
