His advert should be stopped by trading standards.

Firstly it has a volume warning, something about loud music.. What? Lil' Chris.. loud music?

Secondly it labels him a Giant of Rock.. What the fuck, the guy is struggling to find a pube let alone a record sale.

As for this Lil Chris, I do feel a little sorry for him. He's going to have his 5 minutes or so, and then that'll pretty much taint his career in music, if he ever decides to pursue it further.

I mean, that name. Lil Chris? What's going to happen when he's older? :hmm:

Seems to be just an updating of the Jackson Five/Osmonds formula. However where as some of the Jackson Fives and the Osmonds music can be listenable and quite fun in a cheesy way, this is just cringe worthy.

I'm not into "fantasy metal" as you call it, and I'm not even a big fan of Dragonforce, even though they do put on an awesome live show. Still, all I've ever seen you do is judge a band on their name, without giving any real reason for it. Aaany who, the Libertines suck for very many reasons, first being their woeful inability to actually play their instruments, the second being their lack of a sense of how to construct a proper song. Thirdly being the fact that they can't string together a decent melody for shit, and there you have it; A band for simpletons, consisting of simpletons.

Anyway, the topic at hand; er...I think it's all already been said tbh.

I can't help but think you're missing the point of bands such The Libertines. They are meant consist of short, sharp chaotic songs. They are meant to be musically uneducated. Why? Because imagine a musical landscape where every song is perfectly constructed and has a 10 minute note perfect guitar solo. It would quickly become an extremely predictable, pretentious and coma inducing world. You need an alternative, an antidote, which is where bands like The Libertines, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols etc. etc. step in. You need those short bursts of energy, the randomness and the chaos.

Energy, randomness and chaos? Look no further than Nirvana, Foo Fighters etc, not towards shit, pretentious indie. Libertines are so musically unsound, that I wouldn't call it music, there's no coherent melody, just pretentious pseudo art noise.

I don't like the ramones, it's exactly the same song a thousand times over and the sex pistols are alright sometimes, but you're missing the point of what I'm saying, still, I won't go on to emphasise this here, because that's not the point of the thread.

You crack me up, You have just listed the reasons why so many people love the libertines for their careless attitude, their shambolic performances, For the questionable guitar playing, missing notes, for the strange lyrics etc etc

Thats why I love them. They brought back what was missing in British music and it's a shame so many bands have now jumped on the bandwagon and are now trying to follow in their footsteps.

I just think you are totally missing the point of bands like them and what they stood for and why people like what they created and still listen to them now.

Anyway I cant be bothered with you anymore The bard, you never seem to listen and always insist that your tunnel vision views are correct and just cant seem to understand people have different tastes.

Theyre blatantly not shit at what they do , because a lot of people like them (not me tho :p cant stand em). I dont listen to music for its musical quality, it doesnt all have to be "genius" writing, as long as u feel it you feel it, and people who just moan about that shit should quiet down and let them listen to it.

Kindof agree with the Bard, apart from the Franz Ferdinand comment, but thats for another discussion.

Lil Chris has done well for himself you cant deny that (signed by Sony BMG? wtf!?!?!) but yeah everything that comes out of his mouth is absolute crud.

He does a load of charity work though, kudos to him (his marketing ploy) for that anyway

The Libertines aren't worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as The Ramones. Doherty apparently forgot that you need more than just a smack habit to be a rock star, you need to be able to write good music as well.

It's not about skill with an instrument; it's about expression.

Look at Syd Barrett. He was far from the world's greatest guitarist - technically speaking, he wasn't very good at all. But he created new, clever ways of expressing himself with his instrument, and that's one of the reasons why people still listen to him today.

I'd like to point out that this argument stands for all musicians, and not just Lil' Chris. I haven't listened to enough of his music to give a valid opinion, although I don't particularly like his voice.

Doherty is not the one i have a problem with, as i really enjoyed the New Babyshambles EP. I just dont think a band like the Libetines deserve all the attention they get. Seriously in my opinion both their albums are fine to listen to in places, in others i just despise it.

What the Libertines "stand for" was not that much in the first place. After their early days they were persistently letting their fans down, with both Doherty and Barat failing to show up for gigs. Yeah they did release some decent material in the latter part of their carear, but the band was so washed up they never even played the stuff to their fans as a complete band.

It is beyond me why people still idolise them.

Fair points. Personally, I don't hold the Libertines in particularly high regard - but I do enjoy their music.

Though neither of the Libertines albums are perfect - songs like Horrowshow and Don't Be Shy are dire, in my opinion, while others are hit and miss - I would happily listen to either. The Libertines didn't "stand for" much, you're right - but they had some clever and then-unique ideas an concepts. Arguably, these concepts could have been better realised than they were, but that doesn't stop the work they did produce being worth a listen.

The whole ramshackle, disorganised nature of the band, while undoubtedly irritating, somehow added to their mystique and charm. I think that's why so much hype surrounded the band - there was always an element of surprise and the unexpected involved. You didn't know whether you were going to come away disappointed or amazed. It made them stand out; it gave them publicity. It's the element that Doherty has taken with him in creating Babyshambles; it's a shame that the band recieve such negative press on account of Doherty's actions.

That said, (and apologies to the mods, I know I'm veering wildly off-topic here), I did think Down In Albion was rather hit and miss. Is The Blinding EP any better, Zygo Ape?

EDIT - -

Well said. :)

Yes, Fierce. You are quite correct. And it's exactly the same with Lil' Chris. Whether you like him or not, he has his fans and he has his audience. He shouldn't be labelled as "shit" or anything like that, because to somebody else he's the best thing since sliced bread. And it doesn't matter who that somebody else is. Lil' Chris does what he does, and what he does appeals to his audience. That's all that matters.

You could argue that any band or artist on the planet is "shit", but it's all down to personal taste. When it comes down to it, you have to accept that if you want to label bands in such a manner, you must concede that either:

1. All bands are shit.
2. No bands are shit.

Lil' Chris isn't your cup of tea; fine. He isn't mine either. But he does what he does, and there are people out there who like what he does. He's achieved what many sixteen year olds can only wish for - he's a pop star. It wouldn't surprise me if he was idolised by many.

So let's leave him alone, eh?

If I wish to label a band as shit [And I bloody well do] I cannot concede that bollocks about all or nothing. If your tastes go as far as that simple black and white, then good for you. But for me and my tastes, there are shit bands, there are not shit bands. Plus I have some grey areas inbetween.

My point is that any band can be argued as being shit. I may not have made my point clear enough, but what I'm trying to say, in simpler terms, is that if you choose to regard a band as being shit, don't go round telling other people that they're shit, because anybody could put the same argument against any band, and so your argument is effectively redundant.

You say "for you and your tastes" and you're exactly right. You and your tastes. There's no such thing as a band that is categorically shit, if they have an audience.

I'll tell people what I bloody well like. Whether they agree with me or not isn't my problem. I would mention personal tastes and all that but it's so obvious it doesn't need mentioning.

Good for them.

Bullshit.

And? I don't believe I ever said it was the general consensus. I said Lil' Chris is a pillock and his music is shit [not word for word but you get the idea], and since it hasn't been expressed enough over this last page... Yes it is my opinion. Also seems to be the opinion of a few people here too.

"A new giant of rock has emerged". Irony...

Insulting or saying a band is shit is fine, because that's your opinion. But no-one should be saying someone's opinion is shit, because we're all entitled to one and no-one's is better than anyone elses.

And anyway, it's all about how well the song is written and not how well the instrument is played. Although potentially the better you get at an playing, the more scope you have for writing a song.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion but that dosen´t mean we have to expect everyone to respect and not be criticized for it.

If i would say: "I very much dislike this band" wouldn´t not be much different to saying "This band is shit" because i am making the very same point with both sentences, just using other words to make that point.

Clearly we're not putting "in my personal opinion that may or may not be shared by others" at the front of our posts.
In my opinion you can listen to what you want, Lil' Chris, DragonForce, Franz Ferdinand. I may personally dislike all three of those, but you can listen to them. I'm not going to argue that the band is crap or not. That's like telling somebody what their favourite colour is.

The only problem I really have is that bands I don't think are very good, or are completely manufactured like Lil Chris, don't deserve to be up there. All that guy did is happened to go on TV and be 'cute'. He didn't work hard, he didn't practice for 10 years or spend every day trying his damndest to get famous. He was just lucky. I reckon there are a lot more deserving people out there.
But that's just how the world works. If you wanna make it big you'd better make sure you're lucky enough. Being 'good' has nowt to do with it.

Like what other people have said. It's down to taste. And everybody thinks that theirs is better than others, it's part of life, it's what we've all come across many times.
It does slightly irritate me when people go on about how crap one band is by going on about how they can't sing or play instruments. You'd be better off by saying "I just don't like them" than annoying fans of this band by whining on and on about how they're talentless and you can't see how other people can like this band.
For instance, I despise the Scissor Sisters, but I don't go on about how much I don't like them, especially on here as I know there are a few SS fans here, so I just let them be and let them praise the Scissor Sisters, while I praise my favourite bands to the high heavens.

To keep this thread on track: Li'l Chris. Not my cup of tea.

I think it goes without saying that the lyrics between his Chacarron's are the most inspirational and heartwarming lyrics I've ever heard.

There ain't nothing wrong with mindless pop though. As long as it's actually good. Lil' Chris' songs are damn catchy, but they're not very good. On the other hand some of Justin Timberlakes stuff is incredibly avant garde for such a high profile popstar, yet he still remains successful.

Granted though the only incredible thing about any decent JT song is the production. The Neptunes produced him when they were good and now Timbaland's on fire again and guess who he's producing? Lucky ass JT. And don't forget Nelly Furtado (Maneater and Promiscuous anyway... you can forget the rest of the stuff she releases off this album)

Everyone should just listen to whatever they want to. But really I mean Incubus when I say that. :hmm:

Got the new album Odwin? I DIG it so much... sorry.

As for this guy hes a bit of a loser and will probably turn to drugs in a few years time. Ah well hopefully he will invest his money and appear on celeb big brother so we can all have a chuckle at his expense.

I saw his MySpace long ago, too bad I forgot the link. 'twas funny, he had a picture of his girlfriend (who looked a decade younger than him), who he called "his bitch". I'm pretty sure she appreciates him calling her that.:laughing:

Indeed. If you look carefully you'll see his bitch cunningly planted in the banging animation.

This was the original topic we once had. It's a shame the Myspace page was taken down.

Then we took the concept and did some cybering with it:
