Conspiracy!!!
over 2 years ago

Mogrades, the unthinkable has happened.Despite the best intentions of a committed gruop of surporters, who acted in all your best interests to steer the competition to a result benfitial to all our peoples, Pulp have been eliminated from the World Series of Ninties Pop Songs. A United Opposition of enemies of the people, led by one Known Human, has been successful in their bourgeois-Trotskyist...

Like A Monkey With a Miniature Cymbal

Okay, this is not a plug for Hot Chip's "Over and Over" (and over and over and over, like a monkey with a miniature cymbal, the joy of repetition really is in you), but that song is maybe as fitting as can be for the state I'm currently in.You see, sometimes, I come across a track that I just looooove so much, I got to hear it over and over (and over and over and over, like a monkey with...) ag...

Do you like OJ with PULP or without PULP

Any PULP fans out in the MOG universe? I love Common People but have never heard any of their other songs. Is there any you would suggest? Is Common People their best? Are they still together? Any help appreciated.

Midnight tunes
over 2 years ago

So it’s a little past midnight and I find myself listening to a song that I adore, and haven’t heard in so long. Pulp was over shadowed by Oasis and Blur in the 90’s but they made a splash with “Common People”.And because its random and kick ass, I will share my midnight song with the few who are up.Tania

Pulp!
about 1 year ago

I freaking love this song. I heard the recent William Shatner/Joe Jackson/Ben Folds version, and it too is quite exciting. There is no way to make this song unexciting. Even with its thorough Britishness. My god.Pulp's "Different Class" album is a solid mid-90's explosion of rock & roll goodness. I can't get enough of it. I mean, it's not quite "69 Love Songs" by Magnetic Fields - that al...

Movie Review: Live Forever (3 out of 5)
over 3 years ago
Blog post image preview

"Live Forever" is definitely an Anglophile's dream: 90 minutes of talking head documentary dedicated to the thesis that the greatest musical movement of the last 30 years was Britpop. Remember Britpop?I admit that I'm not the target audience; of all the records mentioned, the only ones I own are Blur's "Parklife" and "Blue Lines" by Massive Attack (technically not Britpop, but whatever). The ...
