Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 19:03:28 On a general wikipedia browse I noticed that Ocean Colour Scene released a new album a few months ago. It's called "On the Leyline". Apparently it didn't make much of a splash in the music world, only getting to #37 in the album charts. I didn't even know it existed, anybody know if it's any good? I'll probably get hold of it anyway.

Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 19:36:34 Just listening to it now. Only on track 3, it seems ok, but lacking any energy their old stuff had. Seems a bit like Ocean Colour Scene by numbers. They are all getting on a bit though I suppose.
Maybe a hundred mile high city or riverboat song style jobby will pop up somewhere, I doubt it though. Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: Samdy Gray on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 19:37:46 I got this a few weeks ago. It's ok, but not as good as their old stuff.

Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 21:37:30 I agree with mex, it's just dull. They should just tour and play their old stuff.
Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 21:39:25 they do tour and play there old stuff, thats how they make a living.

They always seemed to be playing everywhere every year when I was at uni. I'll check them out now Mr. Mex. Title: Ocean Colour Scene Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, June 10, 2007, 21:49:44 I thought Absolute Dancer was a bit shit, the other songs were pretty good though. Sort of like Chikinki. Well the heavier Chikinki songs anyway.

Sort of like Chikinki. I thought absolute dancer started off great and then turned into arse treacle. Didn't like the rest either, sorry!

However my money is as good as anyone elses and I won't be purchasing any of Maths Class's 'work' unfortunately.
