  5. Top Five Bedtime Drinks

    in Top Fives

    Posted

    1. Horlicks. The King of bedtime drinks, silky, smooth, creamy and malty. Nothing to touch it, and it really gives you a good night's kip.

    2. Ovaltine. A former number one. Still good if you can't get any Horlicks, but not quite the same malty flavour.

    3. Bournvita. A sort of more chocolatey Ovaltine, still with a goodly measure of malt. Okay if you like that sort of thing, but too much chocolate, in my book.

    4. Cadbury's Drinking Chocolate. Chocolate that you drink. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

    5. Luxury Drinking Chocolate. A bit special, good in the creamy Belgian version. Favoured by a lot of wummin, though I definitely favour the malty over the chocolatey in a bedtime drink.

    C$nt´s got the cheek to slag off me.

    Oh, and I´m listening to Ultra by Depeche Mode. Cue all sorts of unknowledgeable tossbags thinking of DM as a wee early 80s synth-pop band and not the masters of dark electronica that they are.

  25. Top 5 Albums Of 2005

    in Top Fives

    Posted

    1. Boards of Canada - The Campfire Headphase

    The electronic tchuchters have done it again!  Excellent!  More guitar influenced than their previous work but these brothers must be the best Scottish band around just now bar none!

    2. Sufjan Stevens - Illinois

    This guy is trying to make an album inspired by every American state...this is number two!!  He's got a long way to go but he can keep trying if he going to keep banging out tunes like this.  Some of the stories are based on real people, places and events while others are blatant myth but all are utterly fascinating.  His first album (Michigan) sounded a lot more rooted in Folk but this album varies between genres a lot more.  If you like Stereolab, They might be giants, Devo etc then buy this!

    3. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

    Critics would probably call it art-rock or something equally stupid but dont let that put you off.  Some great tunes on this, big Talking Heads influence.  Looking forward to seeing them live in a few months.

    4. The Arcade Fire - Funeral

    Excellent indie rock! And its from from Canada!

    5. The Boy Least Likely to - Best Party Ever

    nice, happy and funny tunes from a traditional indie pop band. 

    I also would recommend Sons and Daughters new album as well as Bloc Party, LCD Soundsytem and some of Antony and the Johnsons stuff (though not all, some is really quite pish i think!)

    Anyone else got a top 5 of this years albums?
