Just sending out my best Christmas Day wishes to anyone still reading this Forum in 2024.  I know it's become an internet equivalent of a pub that used to be busy but people rarely go into anymore (and it's possibly surprising that it's still there  ;D ) but many fine conversations / debates / everything else were shared here, friends were made (and possible a couple of enemies) and it's a shame that it's not the way it used to be a few years ago.  But so many things aren't

Still hoping things are good with you, wherever you are, and hey, big comebacks DO happen sometimes!   :)

Again, Happy Christmas to you all.

The Youtube link to the 24 hour 'goatcam' was down for a bit the other night and I automatically assumed I'd have to post 'EMERGENCY CODE RED! THE GOAT IS DOWN!  REPEAT, THE GOAT IS DOWN!'... but no, the handsome straw chappie is still standing...  ;D

Good to hear from you, Anna, best Christmas wishes to you and yours.   ;)

BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF, 11 years on...how do you feel about it?

One of NMA's best albums?
One of NMA's weakest albums?
Mixed artistic results?


I find it interesting that most people who don't like the album, like my least favourite songs the most (i.e. Storm Clouds, Tomorrow Came etc). I guess it is because these are the songs that most resemble the typical NMA sound. I like them too but to me they are the least interesting ones on BDAW.  I'm glad the band took the risk and released tracks such as Did You Make It Safe?, Ghosts, Pull The Sun or Qasr Al Nil Bridge. Some of my favourite NMA songs.

I am very curious to see which way they will go from here.

I'm bringing this topic back up because I've been surprised this year, these last months, listening to songs from BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF, it's an album that's perfect when you're in meditative and melancholic moments, and then the production/sound is superb. I remember that the album had a bit of a divide in the NMA "family" in 2013, probably because it wasn't a classic and energetic Rock album, but something more atmospheric and hypnotic, almost like a movie soundtrack at times. Now, more than 10 years later, I still think it's one of NMA's most "mature" albums and one of the best...alongside of course the timeless THUNDER AND CONSOLATION. "I need more time", "Pull the sun", "March in September", "Seven times", "Knievel", "Between dog and wolf", "Qasr El Nil Bridge", "Summer moors" and "Ghosts" are beautiful songs for me.

"Stranger things" by Molly Tuttle...gorgeous song, music, voice..:

"Very little glory"...great underrated, moody early 80's song by The Opposition...stunning music and voice, but very different style from Molly Tuttle!:
