members of all 'stanbases' are fully capable of stooping to horrific lows, and indeed do so somewhat regularly. while yes the contingent overall skews gay, male and young, plenty of these folks are supposedly grown up too! pretty horrifying

I don't see why people are surprised grownups can do this, has anyone ever met a republican, or one of the adults who sneers at people online for morally neutral things they find embarrassing

I can honestly say I’ve never known anyone IRL whom I thought had the capacity to launch personal attacks at a writer over a music review.

maybe that doesn't qualify as IRL but there are many people here who have personally attacked me over my opinions about bands or my "insane" way of listening to music

I might say Noodle Vague is insane for laboriously relistening to alternate mixes so many times that it's slightly dragging out the results of the MC Tunes poll, but it's just out of admiration for his process

this was specifically saying that my preferring to not listen to music that makes me feel bad is an "insane" way of listening

I think this album is good and I'm sorry people are terrible, it's just a review. :(
PS Supernova is def the best track here.

Besides “A Second To Midnight”, I also came around to liking “Kiss of Life” a lot. I think both tracks are as good (or better) than anything on Disco.

I still like disco
Also, this might be better on an Underworld thread, but one of my favorite things is that you can, using remixes/alternate mixes, re-imagine the self-tilted Kylie Minogue album to sound way more like dubnobasswithmyheadman than you'd ever expect. Thanks Brothers in Rhythm.

ok i need to hear that.
i'm very late to kylie beyond a few big singles. does anyone want to rep a few of their favorite house remixes? there have to be a few, right? i can't find anything obvious on the music purchasing sites i frequent and i don't have the attention span to comb through discogs.

it’s not really house and I’m not sure if this is in your wheelhouse but one of my favorites tracks of the 00s is the Fisherspooner remix of “Come into my world”:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee8RzKjzEHo

impossible princess vinyl reissue is out and sounds pretty dope. Its rep as an alt-rock album is probably slightly overstated, there’s also a fair amount of trip-hop and glistening dance-pop on here. Those rock songs tho they really don’t hide the presence of manic street preachers; ‘i don’t need anyone’ especially sounds very much like a lost cut from
everything must go
as mentioned upthread
infinite disco
disco
side note met a guy awhile back who had interacted w/kylie and he reported that out of all the celebs he’s dealt with she was just the best, super kind and chill.

Those rock songs tho they really don’t hide the presence of manic street preachers; ‘i don’t need anyone’ especially sounds very much like a lost cut from everything must go. i think it’s very much in line with other unexpected detours of that decade and one that’s one of the more successful. ‘some kind of bliss’ and ‘breathe’ remain in the top tier of her career
as mentioned upthread infinite disco is absolutely great, it feels almost like a definitive statement in some ways. also the extended mixes version of disco improves on the original. there are so many versions of that album.

Not the first time I've heard something like this. I think it was Simon Price who said she was one of the nicest celebrities he'd ever interviewed. Kylie and Phil Oakey.
Really enjoying the vinyl reissue of Impossible Princess. It sounds great. Nice to see it improving on its original chart placing and now becoming a top five album in the UK.

I saw the Robbie one a while ago and was surprised that I liked the format a lot. Good for an interviewee to use as signposts to talk about relatively niche aspects of certain eras.

Wasn’t aware of these, not being a fashion icon, however will need to check these out. Though can’t imagine anyone being as charming as Kylie.

I love how her new eras still feel like an event after all this time.
― kitchen person, Thursday, 18 May 2023 14:30 (one year ago) link
Her albums are imo typically so strong that I'm confident about this one. I need to revisit kiss me once and golden, because while those albums did have some highlights I felt at the time they weren't quite up to par with everything she's released from the 94 self-titled onward.
― omar little, Thursday, 18 May 2023 14:59 (one year ago) link
I could use a little less pitch-shifting / vocal manipulation but I like the new single. Already want a Bollywood style remix with strings to accentuate the chorus even more.
