A massive 7/8 out of 45.
Not worth purchasing then I reckon for me.

[Matty_1992]

I'd love to have all the NOW cds,I want this one though.
And really you only like 7/8 of the 45 thats so weird lol,I love pop music its so the best genre

[Claireapillar]

lmao i have all of them...
My friend made me a Now dvd, so i have all of them from now 1 up untill ermm 69 or something. I didn't get the last one unfortunately. But ill get this new one for christmas probably.

[devilsangel141]

I saw it in Tesco last night, skimmed the songs and quickly put it back. My mate Stu then had a look and said "God, there's some shit music around these days!" haha

So naive.

And really you only like 7/8 of the 45 thats so weird lol,I love pop music its so the best genreIt's not weird, it's what I prefer, as I've just pointed out on your emo/pop thread. A lot of it is complete shite....in my opinion.

You'd probably only like 7/8 songs off a rock compilation album or whatever. ;)


My mate Stu then had a look and said "God, there's some shit music around these days!" hahaAgreed :D

[tehfincheh]

I haven't bought a Now CD since Now Twenty Something.

I can't remember what it had on it exactly - well, except for Crocodile Shoes, which was red hot back then.

They seem to be infested with tripe from the top of the charts. Which is fair enough I suppose. I'm a fan of pop. But I like my pop properly baked.

[Claireapillar]

have you noticed how on every now album there's always some random nobody on it, that no-one has ever heard of...i dunno if it's maybe just me and the people i know, but i always seem to find a song on it that doesn't even know what a pop chart is, nevermind ever getting into it...not that i follow the charts much...maybe my error i guess

Also,

Don't you think they should bring a decent rock compilation album out for christmas? last time i heard kerrang i was disappointed that most of it was indie...and i haven't seen any rock albums been advertised for Christmas, unless i just haven't seen them...has anyone else seen any?

[GemmaJamPot]

I dinnae want it. I used to have loads of them, but they just got worse and worse imo :/
My favourite was Now 42 or something like that, lol.

They're all either classic rock (which I like but have most stuff anyways), or 'indie' supposedly - which means it's full of coldplay, james blunt, embrace and the similar sounding 'softer' bands if you will, which just aren't quite my thing.

There needs to be a decent album out full of recent stuff, ranging from indie rock to a bit of metal, with bands like Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Bloc Party, The Enemy, Oasis, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Kings of Leon. They all have decent new stuff out, the closest that comes to it is the Q album 08:


The tracklisting is as follows:
• Kings Of Leon – Crawl
• Glasvegas – Geraldine
• The Ting Tings – Shut Up And Let Me Go
• Razorlight – In The Morning
• The Kooks – Always Where I Need To Be
• The Fratellis – Mistress Mabel
• Ida Maria – I like You So Much Better When You’re Naked
• Manic Street Preachers – Your Love Alone Is Not Enough
• The View – Same Jeans
• Paul Weller – Have You Made Up Your Mind
• Primal Scream – Losing More Than I’ll Ever Have
• The Coral – In The Morning
• Young Knives – Up All Night
• Mystery Jets – Two Doors Down
• The Metros – Last Of The Lookers
• The Pigeon Detectives – This Is An Emergency
• Mark Ronson – Stop Me
• Bloc Party – Flux
• Santogold – L.E.S. Artistes
• Rage Against The Machine – Killing In The Name Of
• Newton Faulkner – Teardrop (Live Session)
• The Script – We Cry
• Scouting For Girls – Heartbeat
• MGMT – Electric Feel
• Keane – Is It Any Wonder
• The Enemy – We Live And Die In These Towns
• Editors – The Racing Rats
• Fleet Foxes – White Winter Hymnal
• Conor Oberst – Milk Thistle
• Rumble Strips – Alarm Clock
• The Stone Roses – Waterfall
• The Clash – Rock The Casbah (Live From Shea Stadium)
• Kasabian – L.S.F.
• The Feeling – Never Been Lonely
• Zutons – Valerie
• Jeff Buckley – Last Goodbye
• Bob Dylan – Thunder On The Mountain
• Leonard Cohen – Hallelujah
• The Futureheads – The Beginning Of The Twist
• Reverend And The Makers – Heavyweight Champion Of The World
• Oasis – Supersonic
• Calvin Harris – The Girls (Live Session)Though again, there's some pre-2008 songs in there (Kasabian, The Enemy, Razorlight....in fact half of the album is pre-2008) =/

WE WANT A CURRENT ALBUM FULL OF CURRENT TRACKS!

And on a side note: Looking at the Kerrang 08 album, it's shit, and some of the stuff isn't even from 08 (Green day, MCR, Fall Out Boy =/) although the album isn't indie at all.

[Shane]

I think I'd much rather just go out and support the Artists I actually like by just buying their Albums.

[Leon]

Well yeah, like I say I probably wouldn't even buy it anyway because I have most of the individual albums.

[Claireapillar]

Well yeah, like I say I probably wouldn't even buy it anyway because I have most of the individual albums.

Yeah that's the problem isn't it really, they make the compilations too late...by then you've already bought all the albums and singles you really want, so there's no point buying the compilation, because you could just make it yourself in a play list.

They should release compilations BEFORE albums...maybe?

just wanted to emphasise this point...thought it was awesome :)

I need that album-(all the highlighted songs)

But yeah if it was a late release they should release it full of 'album tracks' that aren't necessarily singles or going to be singles, as sometimes album tracks are better, and people that have gone out and bought singles rather than albums can hear something new.

Personally I don't buy any singles anyway, they're a waste of money.

Yeh that's a good idea. That'd be good :)

Yeah most of the time they are, but you can get a lot of em on play.com for only £1 so it's not that bad then

[Leon]

Yeah most of the time they are, but you can get a lot of em on play.com for only £1 so it's not that bad thenIt is when you can then get the album on play for £7.99 :P

[Claireapillar]

It is when you can then get the album on play for £7.99 :P

aye good point...think i've been officially pwned then :(
