Jayden Gomez

Jonathan Barnes
it's important to listen now.
Easton Adams

Jonathan Phillips

Owen Miller
ebin
Isaiah Collins
listen to their entire discography
notice the one song that is actually good
notice that all the other songs are just poor attempts at recapturing the goodness of that one song
thank me later
Brody Walker
Well I choose "never" sounds good?
Jose Wright
Is this still the same fucking user that wont shut up about this garbage band?
Jaxon Young
Must be. I don't see how there could be multiple motherfuckers with such poor taste that would need to shill such a mediocre 6/10 artist.
Thomas Hall
Yeah, the bullying in high school must have been so bad he can tolerate any bullying he gets here.
Luke Rodriguez
it sounds like a really bad idea. but it's up to you.
i listened to their discography multiple times: it's really, REALLY solid. solid as graphene (google it).
>notice that all the other songs are just poor attempts at recapturing the goodness of that one song
that's lame. they have tons of great songs. to name just 10:
destroy everything you touch
seventeen
beauty*2
all the way
discotraxx
blue jeans
deep blue
tomorrow
mirage
international dateline
and no, they're not "poor attempts at recapturing the goodness of that one song"; they're proper songs that stand on their own. they have their own identity.
Christian Torres
>to shill
discussing a 19 years old band is not shilling. unless you're an autist on the wrong board.
>such a mediocre 6/10 artist.
tell that to brian eno.
>According to Brian Eno, once a member of Roxy Music: "Ladytron are, for me, the best of English pop music. They're the kind of band that really only appears in England, with this funny mixture of eccentric art-school dicking around and dressing up, with a full awareness of what's happening everywhere musically, which is kind of knitted together and woven into something quite new."
even assuming they're mediocre (they aren't), why do you think people should not post about them? just because it triggers your hyperautism?
Hudson Harris
well, no need to tell us all these details, kiddo. if you were bullied at school it's unnecessary to project that. you didn't even live with other anons, so stop projecting.
Levi Hill
Did I hit a little close to home? Maybe you're the one projecting right now lol.
Samuel Sullivan
you didn't hit anything. you just need to stop projecting your own insecurities and start discussing music for a change.
Kevin Hughes
I love Stereolab!
Jacob Young
>Ladytron thread
>half the posts are OP
Grayson Carter
The state of trolling on the internet has come to an all time low. Fuck, I'm more angry at the fact it's become so boring... and predictable.
Aiden Roberts
>the op actually has a discussion instead making a thread and leaving
>oh, the horror!
Levi Clark

Isaac Russell
Yeah man I'm so insecure about listening to what I like I have to create a thread every day trying to convince people like what I like. LOL
Nolan Lewis
Aha, great, dump the nudes.
Nathaniel Smith
Goldfrapp have a richer back catalogue and some fantastic jazzy vocals, but Ladytron can rock out better (in their odd little shoegaze way).
Cameron Foster
You probably have aspergers or crippled so nobody gave you the full beat down.
Jacob Hernandez
I reod as Goldfap! hahah what a dumb1 name
Leo Green
more like goldcrapp.
Cameron Lee
How come an electropop band calls their album '604'? These numbers normally stand for goa, which has really nothing in common with Ladytron...
Michael Garcia
i'm 100% sure about what i like. and i know that what i like is great.
i love goldfrapp too. quality duo.
still projecting... i rarely had any problem with other people. it depends on your envionment, if you have people to help you if you need help and if you know how and what to talk.
Ryan Ortiz
604 is a reference to the film Andromeda Strain. 601 was the computer's code which indicated an error.
Jaxon Garcia
it's a weird story:
>It's the area code for British Columbia... we're glad we've attached this strange importance to that number, it crops up everywhere now. We noticed when we stayed in Hamburg in Germany (in a hotel called "Commodore" – pure coincidence), that the number to phone reception from your room was '604'. Moments afterwards the building had caught fire and we were lucky to escape with our lives. I'm not joking.
William Jones
they have a song holiday601. that's a clear reference to andromeda strain. also they got their cool uniforms because of that movie.
Elijah Lewis
thanks for this detailed information :D
Christian Garcia
Do you even listen to other bands? Fuck me.
Elijah Bailey
you're welcome, user.
btw what are your fave ladytron songs?
Justin Price
I was being sarcastic you moron. I hate Ladytron.
Levi Smith

this is the song that made me a fan: youtube.com
Nicholas Mitchell

Noah Taylor

Brayden Carter
>motherfuckers with such poor taste
>shill such a mediocre 6/10 artist.
troll logic. make up your mind, dummy. if they have such a poor taste they should "shill" a poor artist, not a mediocre one.
Jonathan Evans

No bueno y mierda.
Aaron Rogers
Thin sounding anemic Synthpop full of oontz oontz percussion, weak vocals with sub par musicianship. They rely heavily on long drawn out synth lines. Tired, derivative and vapid. There are far better Synthpop bands.
Joseph Hall
nice description of yourself
Michael Diaz
Joto maricon con mal gusto en musica
Sebastian Martin
>Thin sounding anemic Synthpop full of oontz oontz percussion, weak vocals with sub par musicianship.
you confuse them with other bands. they use a lot analogue gear who sound rich, big and punchy:
youtube.com
youtube.com
their vocals are perfect for their music. it's synthpop, not opera. not everything needs vocal gymnastics, especially not synthpop. kraftwerk got away with monotone vocoded vocals.
sub par musicianship? their songs are extremely well made, catchy and actually memorable.
>They rely heavily on long drawn out synth lines.
how is that even a bad thing? do you even dig the dreampop aesthetic?
>Tired, derivative and vapid.
no. that's just your post.
>There are far better Synthpop bands.
post them.
Benjamin Bennett
Seek professional help. Seriously.
Logan Richardson
Sometimes getting bullied is a good thing so you dont grow up into a fag.
Michael Ortiz
you need professional help, autist. if music discussion bothers you so much, you're on the wrong board, motherfucker.
Christopher Miller
See you tomorrow on the new Ladyboy thread you make.
Angel Diaz
what contrived faggot shit
Juan Scott
see you tomorrow, idiot who bumps threads he hates. keep up the the good job, moron. you're a necessary evil.
Nathan Bailey

Wyatt Rogers
boring lol
Christian Ross
your comment?
Eli Allen
>no Playgirl
someone wasn't around when Ladytron were actually being played on music TV (when that was still a thing)
Levi Cooper
i posted just 10 random ladytron songs. rest assured that i love playgirl a lot. i remember seeing this video on vh1 late at night (viva la disco or something): youtube.com
this song is so charming.
Ryder Rodriguez
are there any ladytron fans?
Brody Williams
Bump
Oliver Carter
Bumping from page 9
Brody Torres
desu they sound like a female version of kraftwerk...
Caleb Campbell
not 100% true. after their second album ladytron changed their style significantly. i doubt kraftwerk would ever make something like 'high rise': youtube.com
still, ladytron's first single 'he took her to a movie' was a nice kraftwerk homage: youtube.com
Bentley Morgan
"He took her to a movie" borrows heavily from The Model by Kraftwerk - I'd like to point that out
Parker Price
Wait he already pointed that out, now I look like an idiot on an anonymous internet forum, fuck my life
Leo Gonzalez
I feel nostalgia to the late 00's when listening to them. Most of their lyrics are prickly and dark which gives a nice blend with their pop sound.
Completely underrated as a band.
Joseph Jackson
Nub is somehow one of my favorite Rock songs ever hahaha
Elijah Allen
>now I look like an idiot on an anonymous internet forum
come on, why would you care about such insignificant things?
Xavier Sullivan
Started listening to them with Destroy Everything You Touch in FIFA WC 2006 game but didn't go into them that much. Listened to Ace of Hz in FIFA 11 and thought might as well go through their latest album. After that I've only listen to their singles but not in full albums yet for their older works. Currently listening to the first album.
Hudson Campbell
>Completely underrated as a band.
100% agree. that's why i'm trying to make them more visible on Sup Forums.
Robert Gonzalez
I was being sarcastic. But yeah they borrow a lot of themes and influences from 80's synth pop unsurprisingly. Ladytron isn't that earth shatteringly original but interesting enough.
Blake Torres
But your making things worse, I'd rather you let people discover them outside of Sup Forums - this board is a mess of faggotry and trolls at its' best anyhow
Christian Thompson
they have a nice best of released in 2011. you could listen to it if you want an overview of their career.
>they borrow a lot of themes and influences from 80's synth pop
actually not. this is a huge misconception about them because they uses synths like those 80s synthpop bands. but if you actually pay attention to their music you will notice influences from many genres and eras. fyi this is a list of influences:
>Kraftwerk, My Bloody Valentine, Wire, The Human League, Stereolab, Throbbing Gristle, Serge Gainsbourg, Mantronix, ABBA, Leonard Cohen, Broadcast, Curve, Nine Inch Nails, Aphex Twin, Carpenters, Pulp, David Bowie, Kate Bush, Brian Eno, Lush, 1960s pop, Roxy Music
>Ladytron isn't that earth shatteringly original
actually i doubt anyone else was doing that shoegaze-synthpop hybrid from witching hour before them. they are original in the sense that they have such an unique style; i mean their songs have that ladytron style.
