FROTHING SPLEEN: May 2007
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Ha, it seems I'm not alone in my nostalgia for 80s tribalism. This particular tribe was all about nostalgia for the 60s. Nostalgia about nostalgia, am I getting old or what? Posted by ASHDAV at 5:33 PM. Friday, May 25, 2007. Public Enemy - Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos. Posted by ASHDAV at 10:44 AM. Soft Cell - Say Hello Wave Goodbye. 80s, 80s, 80s! Posted by ASHDAV at 10:18 AM. Unashamedly and rather unquestioningly left wing hatred of her, all with the...

FROTHING SPLEEN: July 2007
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Tuesday, July 24, 2007. No one questioned ‘ who is a Serb, who is a Croat, who is a Muslim (Bosniak)’. We were all one people, that's how it was back then, and I still think it is that way today." Josip Broz Tito. Phew, where do I start? Things started out quietly enough with a stopover in. Suppose I could have changed beds, but didn’t wish to give in to superstition. Out of there sharpish the next morning for a cleansing soak in the magnificent Turkish baths before the train...

FROTHING SPLEEN: June 2007
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Sunday, June 24, 2007. One of life’s plodders, me, I don’t wish to make any great claims for myself in terms of original thinking, but I may be on the verge here of saying something that nobody has ever said before. Only one person can confirm this. I declare, publicly and unashamedly: Carl, you are a true gentleman. Why of course, for passing onto me this. Thin White Rope. Why was this band so criminally overlooked? A case of a facetious, hung-over journalist dashing off a half-...

FROTHING SPLEEN: October 2006
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Friday, October 27, 2006. Schadenfreude is not the most refined. Whereas this is never more than secondary, a mere vehicle for Madonna’s self-promotion, and nobody even seems to bother to pretend it’s otherwise. Does anyone actually listen to her music at home, or do they just head, lemming-like, straight for their bank accounts to fork out for an absurdly priced ticket for her ooh so controversial show. For that price it’s got to be good, right? Under our roof, bloody hell!

FROTHING SPLEEN: January 2007
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Tuesday, January 30, 2007. This is for any indie pop fans. I'm feeling like crap today with horrendous flu, so I don't see why they shouldn't suffer too. God Hates Us All indeed. Superb. Choke on it you milksops! Posted by ASHDAV at 7:58 PM. I've just received another blast from my former schoolmate Rob, regular trawler of the net for the sublime and the ridiculous. Is this the new face of counter-cultural media sabotage? A mere childish prank? They got it. Fools. The new governm...

FROTHING SPLEEN: April 2007
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Friday, April 13, 2007. Is a good time for feminist baiting ah, but where are the feminists? Feminism does exist in some dark corners of this country, but tends to be rather hard to find, and when it surfaces is rarely in the same form as the brands of feminism to be found in. Or, God forbid,. Last weekend I had a visit from some friends from. And behave accordingly, so the women’s enthusiasm for the ritual tends to wane as the day goes on. Posted by ASHDAV at 10:38 AM. The summe...

FROTHING SPLEEN: December 2006
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Sunday, December 17, 2006. Rath vs. Macek, in Czech. Posted by ASHDAV at 7:36 PM. Czech politics, again. Now that I have the powers of youtube invested in me (none the wiser as to why it didn’t work for me before) I can return to long neglected and unfinished business referred to in past posts. Before I scuttle off back to the. Please excuse me before I begin moderating while I resolve a purely personal matter, thank you. You are a coward! Posted by ASHDAV at 7:34 PM. I remember ...

FROTHING SPLEEN: September 2006
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Saturday, September 23, 2006. Here's a photo of Modern Talking. Just look at them. Posted by ASHDAV at 6:16 PM. Friday, September 22, 2006. This isn’t to say that the. Is a particularly unfashionable country. It’s rightly noted for its highly presentable womenfolk, and the younger generation of males is now becoming fast drawn in to the cult of the metrosexual. Nevertheless here, unlike in the. The mullet remains immortal. Posted by ASHDAV at 10:09 AM. Changing the subject comple...

FROTHING SPLEEN: November 2006
http://frothingspleen.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
THE BEAST FROM THE EAST. Sunday, November 19, 2006. I thought I'd written something really offensive, particularly to papist scum in my last post, but I realise belatedly that all along I'd been trumped in advance by the Impostume, with a truly revolting outburst from his forthcoming, eagerly awaited novel. Hats off, there's no way I can compete with that. Posted by ASHDAV at 9:32 AM. Friday, November 17, 2006. Err, actually, have I got that bit right? Posted by ASHDAV at 2:30 PM. There are obvious jazz ...
