I wonder exactly how many songs they demoed in the end. :S

[Craigels]

Thanks for those.
I saw 2 copies of Blunt at the news agents today and i considered buying a copy but i didn't have any money on me so i skimmed over the first page.

[Colezy]

I've been busy scanning ALL of my TLE stuff over the last few days. Well I haven't done it all yet, but I am getting there. Here is some recent stuff though :)

Blunt Mag cover - original scan looked like this:

But I have edited it, so its looks roughly how it should! Although, I CBF doing the rest of the text on the disc and the writing behind the inside circle of the disc :p Too lazy!

Their pic (an old one) is also on another page for the article about 50 yrs of australian rock and roll, but its a small one and i *don't think* the article mentions them so I didn't scan it.

[Kacky]

Thanks Nic! :)

[Sarah]

anyone get the SL from the Sydney Daily Telegraph on Thursday?

I don't really want to have to pay $10 for the one on ebay, so if anyone has scans that'd be great :p

[Colezy]

Nope, but here's the text!!

*edit - i've got no idea why its made the heading separate from the rest of it. Can't fix it either.

Having time out after touring their last album, The Living End found fresh motivation and new, hard-rock riffs

The Living End's fifth studio record White Noise should have been called Leather Pants.
That was the code for the benchmark Chris Cheney, Scott Owen and Andy Strachan used to establish whether a song for the new record was rocking.
"It was more Ozzy than Axl," bassist Owen says.
"No matter how flarey or flowery the pants that you are actually wearing are, if you feel like you are in leather pants while you're playing that riff, it is damn good.
"It feels sorta, a little bit violating. Like you're just offending people by being there. It feels fantastic.
"When we would hear Chris play a riff that was like that, we all got the leather pants attitude on and the song kicked."

The leather pants attitude has already manifested itself in the searing showcases the band has played off the back of the release of the title track single.
The fans are well pleased with the hard-rockin' riffs the band have employed on a record which marks a new phase of their career.
After 10 years with EMI, they jumped ship to independent label Dew Process - home of The Grates, Sarah Blasko, The Panics, Bernard Fanning's solo records, the rest of Powderfinger's side projects and other emerging acts.

But the reinvigorated path of the business side of their music took a while to translate in the rehearsal room. The trio regrouped in mid-2007 after a real-life break, following the concerted live campaign for their fourth studio album State Of Emergency.
"We had a bit of a break after touring the last record and everything, and coming back in we thought we'd get started and not much was happening," Strachan says diplomatically.
Owen adds: "It was a false start. It wasn't the right time."
In short, Cheney had a massive case of writer's block and he wasn't happy.
"It was a bit frightening. I was very frustrated by it, almost angry about it. 'This is f ... ed! It's been three years since the last record so the ideas should be flowing but something is wrong here.' I had to unlock the problem. I knew we weren't burnt out as far as ideas but they were blocked," the frontman says.
"It was a matter of getting away from it. Having done nothing else and been focused on nothing else but The Living End for 10 years, I think it got to the point that it wasn't satisfying. My daughter was born and then we went away (with State Of Emergency). Did that even happen? Did I even have a child?
"It got to the point where I was done. I didn't want to be in the band anymore, I wanted to do something else. As great as it is to do a sold-out tour, seven weeks in Australia, 2000 people a night at some of the shows. We had one break, reconvened and wrote some songs that didn't go anywhere, had another break and did other things. We all chilled the f... out and got happy and then it was 'You know what, we've got something really special here'."
The key to unlocking the block - notwithstanding the power of hanging out with one's family - was simple. Time to ignore what everyone else thought The Living End should be doing on album No 5 and do what they wanted.

Sounds simple enough but when you are carrying the weight of expectations - a new record label keen to make you the biggest Australian rock act releasing an album in 2008 and thousands of fans who set the bar high, Olympics high - sometimes it is hard for a band to get back into their own groove.
"We also learnt not to stress out so much," Owen says. "If things weren't happening straight away, rather than feel pressure, we would relax into it and gave the songs space to breathe until we knocked them into shape. We knew when it was wrong but we didn't strangle it to get it right."
One of the early indicators that The Living End were indeed onto something good for White Noise came with the hard hitting and ironically titled How Do We Know.

The band's rockabilly punk sound assaulted the airwaves and charts with their record-breaking double A side single Prisoner Of Society and Second Solution in 1997. Since then, they have been acclaimed for rock'n' roll rifforama delivered at the kind of performances that engender fear in bands coming after them.
Cheney subconsciously channelled that early writing turmoil into heavy and hard rock riffs, the kind Angus Young would be proud to call his own.
Voila, White Noise was on its way. Friends and family who heard the demos were exultant and heavyweight sonic architects signed onto the project. John Agnello, who helmed albums for Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr, produced and Brendan O'Brien, fresh from completing AC/DC's long-awaited new opus, mixed.
"I don't think that I'm a rock pig but I love those kind of riffs; we all do," Cheney says. "That's definitely come to the forefront of this record. All I was trying to do was write some kick-ass guitar riffs that I don't really hear other bands doing. I was just trying to come up with heavy stuff.
"It's never been high on our agenda to think about what's going to sell. Not with the bloody background we have anyway - trying to get on the radio playing '50s rockabilly initially.

"Nonetheless we decided to do our own thing. And it's the same now. The band has a longevity because it has a timeless rock'n' roll thing about it. We figured with this record that if we feel good playing a song, then other people are going to dig it. There's no better judge of this band's music than the three of us."
The Living End have their hunger back. They want to be commanding stages in front of tens of thousands of fans screaming along to their songs as they bounce to the sky. Not mosh, but dance, according to Owen.
"I feel like we've always played from up here (Owen points to his head) and at the moment we're playing a little more down there. It's all in the hips now. There used to be a lot more thinking going on, now it's groovin'," he says.
Strachan adds: "And my neck is getting sore from rehearsals [from banging it]."

* White Noise is released on July 19. Tickets for the White Noise tour go on sale from July 10. They perform at The Cube, Campbelltown, on September 23, Newcastle Panthers on September 24, Waves, Wollongong, on September 26 and the Enmore Theatre, Enmore, on September 27.

[Deadcat Kaye]

There's a tiny little article in Beat magazine this week, I dunno about inpress, I haven't got it yet.

[Colezy]

Nothing major, but I just scanned this:

http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/4881/scan0001li5.jpg

I've seen a few guys from work get smashed the same way. Does the job quickly if you let it, too! :p

[Absolution]

There's a very short mention of the guys in the Herald Sun's review of the Hall of Fame night, plus a pic...anyone want me to scan it?

[WHITE FALCON]

yes ofcourse :)
why do you need to even ask :p

hahahah and @ nicole i swear thats not a good thing to write about a famous person :P
maybe good advertising but i wonder what chris would think about somone publicsing him getting smashed at some bar?
maybe he'd like it? haha i dunno
seems silly kinda

[Absolution]

yes ofcourse :)
why do you need to even ask :p


Because now I have to set up my scanner on the home desktop (im on my laptop now) and transfer it (scanner doesn't like this laptop, dunno why) gah, and I just used it before and forgot to do the article. ><

Nevermind, I'll go do it now. Got nothing better to do. :D

[Colezy]

Arin - it was in this bar booklet thing that came with Jmag. It had a whole heap of bars from across the country in it and a well known muso who drinks at each one...I'm guessing that they had his permission??

[WHITE FALCON]

ahhh i see
it makes sense now:)
all of it...

[Absolution]

Ok then, here it is.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d118/Strielze/2008ARIAHallofFame.jpg

Sorry it aint bigger (guess I can p-shop it or something) and quality's a little dodge.

TLE's mention is at the end;

Melbourne Trio The Living End opened the night with a cover of Jonny O'Keefe's The Wild One.
That song's release in 1958 marked the birth of Australian rock 'n' roll.

[WHITE FALCON]

thanks man.......
are we supposed to be able to read it but lol?

[Colezy]

looks like a cool photo though!!

[Absolution]

lol, I wasn't sure how well it was going to scan, so I'll say no considering I can't read it either! :p

Oh, lol, think you missed my edit...

[Colezy]

If you could scan the photo at a nice resolution, that'd be swell!!

If you have to scan most newspapers at a higher res so that they turn out ok, but how you've done it seems ok...just needs to be bigger :p

[Absolution]

I don't know if my scanner can even do that, lol, maybe someone else has the article, then they can put up a more...refined version. :)

In the meantime, I'll see what I can do.

[Colezy]

yeah it should be able to...what's the photographers name by the way??

[Absolution]

Well there's three:
- Ellen Smith
- Rebecca Michael
- Matthew Bouwmeester

[Colezy]

Thanks :) I couldn't quite read what they're names were! :p

[WHITE FALCON]

hahha yes i did miss your edit
oh wells:)

[Absolution]

Thanks :) I couldn't quite read what they're names were! :p
no probs! Happy to help.
hahha yes i did miss your edit
oh wells:)
again, nps :)

Gah, damn its late, I'll sort out the scanner tomor-uh, later today...

[Kacky]

Thanks guys! :)

[Colezy]

haha, my silly comment got published with this TLE article (http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/comments/0,,23925452-5006024,00.html).
Yay for 3am-crapping-on-without-a-point!! :p

[WHITE FALCON]

hahah tahts cool
when did you do that?
last night?
what is it exactly?

[Amur]

As much as i love them i would never pay to see them if they left out prisoner of society
comments like that just kill me!:mad: :(
if people love POS SO MUCH, they can play it on CD over and over again,without forcing the band to serve their needs. because...well,it's just my point of view, but I think it's always a musician who knows better.and listeners should respect his decisions.
I mean - it's not only about music.It relates to other creative,artistic deals as well! Those who look/listen/watch the creation of artistic person should try their best and accept it, if they still like how that person works/creates/plays etc.
Not to dictate one's will. It's ok to share opinions and tell it to band, but it's already rude to think about the band as about an entertaining show when musicians just have to amuse the audience,not to do that they WANT to do - play the songs which they're most proud of!

[Colezy]

I know what you mean!!

I pay to go to their gigs to have a good perve on them...i mean, listen to their music and have a great time :p

[Kacky]

Lol @ Nicole. You silly, silly girl. :p

[Deadcat Kaye]

I think it's true for alot of things, if ever I go to the footy with my mum, it's just so she can have a damn good perve on richo's butt.

I reckon Chris would probably want to stop playing POS for that exact reason though, people still think of them as the band that plays POS AND THAT'S IT..
Instead probably want to be thought of "oh yeah..they play that POS song right?? yeah, have you heard White Noise? Fuck yeah, great song"

A lot more to em then just POS

[Colezy]

Yeah, well that's what half of the boppers who turn up are there for.

In 2006 at their Hobart gig, the girls behind me were there purely for End of Fashions and their lead singer and for Chris. They admitted that they didn't know many songs, and the ones that they did know, they hardly knew the words to them.

One girl also thought that the lead singer from the hobart support band was in End Of Fashion. Some EOF fan she was!!

:rolleyes:

*edit - that reply was a little slow :p

[Kacky]

Haha. I could care less if they played Prisoner or not, it's a good song and all, and I love it tons but I wouldn't have cared too much if they didn't play it. It's TLE, no complaints there!

[WHITE FALCON]

hahah at come together, i was waiting at cloaking room and this girl was telling her friend how she's seen the living end 3 times and they're the greatest band and then she starts sing "and if you count to 3, you'll see its no emergency, you'll see im not the emeny, just a VICTIM OF SOCIETY"

and i BURST laughing and i was like "excuse me but are you being serious" and she looked at me and goes "what?" (as in like a "what" as if to say "i didnt say anything wrong")
and i laughed even harder and wispered profanity's under my breath and walked away

that was SO annoying.
and the worst thing is i left coz i couldnt stand sitting next to her and she kept singing it and i wanted to shoot myself :)

[Kacky]

I'd probably laugh too, especially if someone said VICTIM. :p

[The Dying Start]

I thought that i might miss Prisoner a little bit, bit I haven't!

That's a good sign for the band. They're overdue to be moving on from that.


And i know they love Second Solution, and always thought it was a better song, and one that they're proud of, but in all honesty, they could probably drop that too. I think it's probably come time where they can pick a song off Self Titled *at random* to put in the setlist. Let's be honest, a good majority of fans probably know all the songs off it, so it wouldnt be to the detriment of a show to have a different self titled track included.

[Sarah]

Yeah, I've been feeling the same towards Second Solution and even West End Riot. Easily two of their best songs, but every friggin show?

[The Dying Start]

Yepp, i go through periods where I have to skip West End and Second.

[Kacky]

They should start playing Growing Up (Falling Down) again, that'd go off real well, I think.

[Colezy]

Yep. I'm over WER too.

/2c

[Kacky]

Thanks for your 2 cents Nicole. :) :p

[WHITE FALCON]

maybe they should chuck all torn down back in!
havnt heard them play that in ages.
or even save the day!

[mattheal]

yeah some of the other songs of S/T would be awesome...ATD, monday

[WHITE FALCON]

bloody mary ;)
love that solo
soo eeery

[Jonnno]

I thought that i might miss Prisoner a little bit, bit I haven't!

That's a good sign for the band. They're overdue to be moving on from that.

Definitely. There are too many songs that have only been played once, or not at all, that deserve to be played today, from all albums too. Stuff like SOE, Nowhere Town even. PLAY IT ALL!!

[WHITE FALCON]

i agree jonno :)
but all those boppers will be like wtf is this?
but i rekno they're gonna lose some of them with this album
and i was talking to my friend who loves selft titled TLE and only self titled and she said she loves teh new stuff and its the best they've done so we could get more fans from the era again :)

[Jonnno]

Yeah thats true, always striving for a new audience I guess. Thing is I know too many people who say "The Living End? Ah their first album was good, they're crap now." These people are not intellectual;) :p

But yeah, alot of people cannot get over the fact that TLE want to write poppier songs, in part to broaden their fanbase. And there's nothing wrong with that at all!

[WHITE FALCON]

Yeah thats true, always striving for a new audience I guess. Thing is I know too many people who say "The Living End? Ah their first album was good, they're crap now."

the amount of times i've heard that lol.
or
the living end suck man but chris CHAINEE is a good guitar player.

[The Dying Start]

They should start playing Growing Up (Falling Down) again, that'd go off real well, I think.

...and so would i!

[Kacky]

Why am I NOT surprised? :p

Didn't know where to put this info, but, has anyone who checks the FasterLouder site noticed the nice little TLE White Noise promos down the side of some pages?

You can watch videos (they're tiny though - White Noise vid, HDWK/Longnecks vid, making of WN), see tour dates, listen to the audio of HDWK and WN and there's even a link to purchase the album!

I thought it was pretty nifty anyways :)

Looks like this:

Aaaannnd, was checking my myspace page the other day and today and noticed that since all this White Noise awesomeness has been going on, TLE have come in at 10th place on the Official MySpace Indie Artists Music Charts :p
Didn't get a mention in the Top Major Label category though cos obviously Dew Process aren't a major label!

wake up little suzy lol?

[Kacky]

AHH. I hope it got recorded. D:

[Erin]

I came about 1/3 of the way through white noise. it was nice, but chris' voice was...sorta unlike him. I had trouble remembering it was him.

but the news you want to hear..

i have about 2 minutes of wake up 'lil suzy..

HERE!

I converted the file using http://media-convert.com, i'm shamelessly plugging this, as it is a god damn life saver ^_^

and now,

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4M3LJ2SL

i must stress, it comes in a bit through the song. it isn't the whole thing. I should have started recording as soon as i heard it

interetsing side note: after cal disses ed for not knowing the song, scott says "yeah, we only said the title like...FIFTEEN TIMES"

another: Andy used his wallet as a percussion instrument. his excuse was "well, all i could bring in was a snare and brushes, so i had to inprovise"

[Colezy]

amr is just the format that comes from most phones...well i'm pretty sure that's what my old nokia was and I think the Sony Ericsson i have atm is the same :)

Anyway, here it is in mp3 format (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9IWWQB5R) :)

[Sarah]

*giggles*

awesome!!!

[Wild Turkey]

Thank Guys!

[Kacky]

THANK YOU!. :D

[Craigels]

Thanks!
I would've recorded it but it would've only been to cassette and my mum wasn't willing to give me one of her old tapes without checking what was on them on such short notice then my sister came home and goes "oh i've got plenty you coulda used one of mine" but it was a bit late :(.

I was gonna message someone to record it via their computer but i didn't have anybodies number who could've done it for me

White noise was AMAZING as an acoustic.

We should flood Nova with emails begging for WN & WULS for download or something.

[WHITE FALCON]

im keen to do that!

[Sarah]

yeah, me too!

[Colezy]

Me three. I did search the Nova site this arvo when i read this thread, but yeah, no such luck.

[WhitefalconTLE44]

I already emailed them yesterday, so you guys better get going and send some more:D

[Kacky]

Ahhh. Yeah. I wanna hear it. D:

Andrew Stockdale - Wolfmother
c'mon,that's just stupid!:rolleyes:
is he REALLY better than Chris?bluh.

[Ben reed]

of course hes not better than chris!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCK

[drifta_21]

I'm offended that even Murray Wiggle got higher than Chris. STAY OFF THE CRACK!

But in other news....
http://ultimate-guitar.com/
Look at the pic on the left.
and...
http://ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/compact_discs/the_living_end/white_noise/index.html
That review is LAME. I shall write my own.

[Craigels]

Murray is a good guitarist and i'm glad he made the list but still shoulda been #10

I CANNOT believe Tommy Emmanuel didn't make the list at all!!! He has got to be in the top 10 guitarists in the world!

[Kacky]

Number 9? What a joke!

[WhitefalconTLE44]

Its cool that chris got in the top 10, but he should DEFINITELY be higher up

[Colezy]

He should have been higher up than Mr Wiggle and that Wolfmother bloke, that's for sure.

Thanks for all of the links people :)

[WHITE FALCON]

that poll sucks about 30 chodes

[Sarah]

well, i'm trying to find an old review i remember reading a few years back from one of the Saloon Bar Riot shows. No luck so far, but did come across this (http://www.geocities.com/australianpunk/livingbody.html). Oh how times have changed :p

[Sarah]

podcast with Scott - can't see it posted anywhere else...

here (http://www.accessallareas.net.au/podcasts/The_Living_End.php)

I just read your review and it was really great :)
Definitely topped the other one by far!

[Craigels]

I read it too at school. I was really quite impressed.

[drifta_21]

Cheers for that. That was my first review, so woohoo.

[deathbat23]

They're going to be in Thursday's edition of MX (a free newspaper in Sydney which you can get on the weekdays in the city area).

:)

[oofenshnine]

Chris is number 9 on Planet Rocks top 10 Aussie guitarists.

http://www.planetrock.com.au/news/14736/Your-Top-10-Australian-Guitarists---Planet-Rock

fucking stupid list i reckon.. and not just 'cause they put chris at number nine too

[The Dying Start]

It was voted on by the public, so what can you expect? It's more like a popularity contest. There were some deserving axemen listed above Chris though. Mossy, the Young Brothers, and Davey lane is fucking good (but i probably wouldn't rate him above Chris).

[Sarah]

[Kacky]

I have your address Yana, so I'll send it out to you when I can. :)

[Amur]

[The Dying Start]

It's a sexually transmitted disease. Thankfully for you, Mel is willing to share.

[Amur]

It's a sexually transmitted disease. Thankfully for you, Mel is willing to share.
the thing about you that I appreciate the most, is that you know EVERYTHING.about everyone.:rolleyes:

yep, so once again I can't sleep...

as a result tonight I bring you:

Fucking awesome Juice interview circa 2001 (http://web.archive.org/web/20010625063114/http://www.juice.net/)

highlights include:
If The Living End was a car, what would it be?
Chris: I'd probably say my Holden Kingswood HJ
...oh noes!

"Prisoner Of Society" seemed to come from nowhere. Have you ever analysed why was it such a massive hit?
Chris: It's like timeless rock & roll, you know?
*cough*timeless*cough*

Travis: Because if I wanted to be famous, I would have been an actor. Let's face it, I've got the dashing good looks.

[Sarah]

still awake...

V 2003 diary (http://web.archive.org/web/20030805093518/http://channelv.com.au/)

highlights include
ANDY STRACHAN - Entry 1

Had my first coffee...

...Mark Trombino...He wants the band to happy, so it should be too....

[mattheal]

So do The Living End get lots of groupies?
Travis: We haven't really encountered that.
Chris: I reckon that's just a myth.
Scott: Either we're stupidly ugly or it's a myth. I'm backing both.
Travis: The ugly forest is meant to be run through, but we stumbled.
Chris: Yeah, we got beaten with the ugly stick.
Travis: Not only did we get beaten, but people came back and beat us again.
Chris: Yeah, but we don't care because we can play, so we can get away with it.

HAHAHAHA!!! :D

[Colezy]

Cheers Sarah!

[Kacky]

Thanks Sarah! :)

[Colezy]

Just found this article.

I like it cos it pretty much sums up my views of the night (about the wankers yelling out to the awesomeness of the rest of the night!) Only thing is that people were lined up LONG before 8pm :p

Read it HERE (http://www.shoesandblues.com/lovesound/entry.php?id=170)

good work - looking forward to it!

in the mean time, here (http://www.australianmusician.com.au/DisplayStory.asp?StoryID=243) is a non-pretty version :)

[WHITE FALCON]

that was posted a while ago in muso's corner ha :p

[WHITE FALCON]

oh and there's another one with chris and ian moss

[Sarah]

i didn't even read it, but had assumed since it was linked from their main page after talking about how it is in their current issue that the article wasn't from July! FFS :p

Assuming the actual article in the mag isn't that old?!?

and since when has the muso's corner turned into links and clippings...*grumbles* damn musos...

[Colezy]

haha

LINK! (http://9am.ten.com.au/video.htm)

Go to 'Browse' -> 'Entertainment' -> 'Music Reviews' -> 'Ian 'Dicko' Dickson - British India/TLE'

:)

[WHITE FALCON]

lol the presenter loved TLE and dicko didnt even plug them
fuckin pom!

[The Dying Start]

Page 5 of the Australian today has an ARIA article. It literally doesn't even mention TLE, but the photo is large, and features our boys with one of the Yunupingu brothers (of Yothu Yindi fame). He also claimed 4 noms.

The last edition of The Australian's "Wishes" magazine liftout also has a TLE photo in it...but only a small one. It's attached to an article about the guy who won the bidding war for their signature back when they first burst on the scene. They also barely rate a mention in that article.

Love, Me.

[The Dying Start]

P.S. - Apparently they're PERFORMING at the ARIAs this year too, i don't know if you'd already heard that.

[Sarah]

ooooohhh, I know we were hoping!

thanks Glenn!!

[Sarah]

haha
