As I might have mentioned before (and will certainly mention again), Nemesis To Go Issue Seven is up and ready to eat.
Someone out there has been chowing down, obviously, because my hits have risen somewhat. So far it seems more people are looking at the photos than reading the words. That's quite usual, as it happens - and what with the web being a visual medium and all, not really a bad thing.
But it would be nice to get a few more hits on the words, because...well, I think I've got some good ones in this issue. Here's my own personal chart of Top Verbals - you can find all these in my reviews somewhere:
Art
Voodoo
Grubby
Eternal Cyclicality
Angst
Golf
Berlin
Oven gloves
Rhetorical
Cult
Disco hammers
Ouroboros
Randomness
John The Revelator
Goth
Deconstruct
Boogie-ish
Punk
post-punk
Post-post-punk
Reliable old diesel engine
Tungsten
Tribal
Bottleneck
Banshee
Reciprocal Trade Agreement
1936
Some good ones in there, I like to think. I suspect I've got a bigger vocabulary than anyone who writes for Artrocker, anyway. I've never seen 'Reciprocal trade agreement' in any of their reviews, the wimps.
Last issue, ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) natashameltdown reckoned my most frequently used word was 'Enormodome'. (I thought it was 'incongruous'). I suspect, this issue, 'Post-punk' wins the most-used prize, but that's really a function of the bands I've covered this time round. Many of them are, to one extent or other, post-punk, so ya just gotta say it.
If you have a fave word or two, suggest them and I'll try to work them in to future issues! |
