New Model Army / Happy 45th anniversary
« Last post by kabi225 on October 23, 2025, 02:07:06 PM »Hello everybody,
I haven't been around here much for some time.
Anyway, when I had a look at the calendar earlier today, I thought, "Isn't this NMA's official "birthday?". And then I realized it's even half a decadal one. Gosh, and it's been 20 years already since my (last) trip to Paris for the 25th anniversary gig. Mind you, my car broke down after I ran a goose over on the motorway - the radiator was knackered. A friend had to pick me up to take me to Paris and I had to get my car on the following day. Happy (?) memories.
Anyway, happy birthday NMA!

New Model Army / Re: The ghost of Cain vs Thunder and Consolation
« Last post by Guillaume on October 23, 2025, 08:50:03 AM »Would love to know what songs you skip ?
In fact there are very, very few NMA songs that i don't like too much...i like 90% or 95% of their 200-250 songs!
BUT:
Whites of their eyes
Big blue
Paekakariki beach
Stranger
Water
Prayer flags
God save me
Still here
If you can't save me
Nothing dies easy
La push
bad harvest
stormclouds
part the waters
eyes get used to the darkness
lean back and fall
tomorrow came
hard way
reload
do you really want to go there?
deserters
...
are songs that i use to skip when i listen to NMA's albums, though. Not especially bad songs, but they leave me rather cold.

New Model Army / Re: Best bass,drums and guitar parts in NMA's discography?
« Last post by Guillaume on October 20, 2025, 10:05:07 PM »Acoustic guitar: Higher Wall
Is it me or David Gilmour was under influence of "Higher wall" with the acoustic guitar part between 2:50 to 3:40 in "High hopes" ?:

Guitar solo in "Higher wall" between 2:50 to 3:12:

Either way, two great songs from NMA and Pink Floyd!
