1. who are the other two bands…??
   plus…two of the songs you've used there are just figments of Carlos' imagination (unless he has gone away and actually written them in his English country retreat)..in which case Shambles they ain't.
   But nice work anyways

2. Ah yes I admit I bent the rules assuming that no one would actually know that Chasing Dragons and On the Path were slightly dubious inclusions…
   The other two bands are Radiohead and another band whose credibility is of a slightly lesser nature but whose frontman may very well be married to a famous actress (allegedly)

3. Radiohead are in a studio??no way…awesome

   Plus, im not engaged in the brain (ensconced as i am in the middle of an essay)...therefore i cant think of the other band. Enlighten me?

4. Famous actress wife? Tell me your joking. Ok, second clue is that another member of the band is a certain J Buckland (another one)

5. oh ok….see i got confused cos, well they arent in the studio, they are swanning around the usa getting a tan before the boring part of actually promoting their record (which is bound to be fantastic because, unlike REM, U2, Oasis or any other 'biggest band in the world' they actually live up to expectations and are really rather good)
   No need to be ashamed of your anticipation….Keane, snow patrol, thirteen senses (coldplay Mk2's) = shit
   coldplay = great

6. Hence use of the phrase 'these guys are all preparing albums for release' – tsk tsk read more closely why don't you? Since this post I have realised that my six favourite bands are all preparing albums for release, namely Babyshambles, Radiohead, Coldplay, Super Furry Animals, Franz Ferdinand and the Cooper Temple Clause

   Splendid taste in music you have there. Although I have yet to "get" Babyshambles, I quite like The Libertines, and consider Bloc Party a lot more musically interesting and diverse than Franz Ferdinand as I've yet to hear anything exciting from them since Take Me Out, though that said I've only heard all the singles as they put me off the album (Michael?). The Bloc Party album is mainly brilliant though, if they're already recording a follow up then that's incredible, I suppose these days you've got to be quick off the mark and keep the momentum going!

9. Ello James! Big up the, er… Reading massive. Bloc Party are recording but not necessarily a complete album's worth – more likely to be a new single…
   Jack…

   … and Supergrass
   … and Ben Folds
   … and The Ordinary Boys
   … and Electric Soft Parade (ooh er!)
   … and Elbow
   … and The Coral (well it might be good)
