Kula Shaker are back working on their third album! Jay is obviously not with the band, but I definitely get some good vibes outta this. Apparently this has been known for a while, so why didn't anyone drop the bloody bomb already? Best news in ages!

When I saw the title of this thread, I assumed you were talking about The Police and their recent reunion at the Grammys (Grammies?).

 

I don't know that Kula Shaker ever really made it stateside. I remember seeing an ad for their album "K" in a guitar magazine circa 1996 or so, but that's about it. Do they have a bigger following in the UK and Europe?

Well "K" entered the British charts at #1, but that was, as you say, over ten years ago. They were really big for a while, but I don't know about their following around Europe. I'm probably their greatest fan in Sweden, but I reckon they're fairly big in the UK after coming back. We'll have to wait and see when the album arrives. Ask Launchie, though; she might have the scoop. She's an old fan as well.

Oh if you're a Floyd fan you ought to check Kula out.

 

Just got the Revenge of the King EP off iTunes. Opening track sounds really neat! :joy:

Somehow I can't seem to stand Phil Collins. Maybe it's the whole eighties thing, but I just don't appreciate him either as a composer or a singer.

I thought this was about Rage Against the Machine :sweat:

Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Yeah, I thought this was about Sixpence None the Richer. :sweat:

They're back! :woot:

 

 

Yeah, I heard about Rage getting back together. It's a good thing as far as I'm concerned. The novelty has worn off the whole Audioslave thing, and Zach De La Rocha is probably running out of food stamps.

 

At least a Rage reunion would give him an excuse to finally shelve that solo album he's been "working on" since they broke up. Too bad, I bet he had a lot of "ill rhymes" in which he sticks it to "the man."

Never heard of them. :mellow:

I thought it was going to be about The Police gammy thing too. Now that's a concert tour I might "kill" to get good tickets for...childhood memories, ah.

Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.

I had my money on Genesis. None o' that Peter Gabriel ****, neither. Pure Phil Collins magic.

I was with you, I thought Genesis.

 

I can't wait till they come to the US, who hoo!

I assumed you meant The Fish Brothers. And by 'back' you meant 'from the lavatory'.

tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

Kula Shaker were pretty much a gimmick band. The gimmick being that Crispian Mills (the lead) was a white Hindu guy.

They were also the most intense band of their time. K blows me away to this day, if you catch my resum

The Jackson 5 are back? FANTASTIC!

And just to clarify, I was being kinda sarcastic earlier. Peter Gabriel > Phil Collins.
