Zane Low

[Fedayn]

lol what else could it be, im stumped.

His smug self satisfied self-referential wankery. Hisoooohh guess who I met today, i'm sooooo interested in new music and pushing those boundaries mate..... The only thing he should push is a syringe full of anti-freeze into his veins.

Utter cunt of a man.

 

[stupid dogbot]

I don't actually really harbour any genuine dislike for the bloke, I just think he comes across as a smug tosser.

IMO, of course. It's not like I actually ever listen to him anyway.

Oh, and as for the representing new music schtick, yeah, right. New music that's been playlist approved...

 

[dodgepot]

God. Do you people like *anyone*?

yes.

but not zane lowe. or jo whiley.

 

[Fedayn]

yes.

but not zane lowe. or jo whiley.

 

[Gromit]

She can't talk for 5 minutes without name dropping. It's pathological with her.

Funnily enough Madonna said the same thing about her when I was chatting to her last.

YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate the way he always fucks up his music facts when he's gushing.

Him and that Edith Bowman can both burn!

 

[g force]

yes.

Esp Jo Whiley

 

[Johnny Vodka]

He is the epitomy of twatty muso, so smugly self-satisfied that he is mr Cool and down with the new music, a self-regarding crawling cunt of a man.

He isn't really. I get the impression he likes any old shite. I suspect he even likes The Killers.

 

[stupid dogbot]

I suspect he even likes The Killers.

Not helping...

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Not helping...

What I mean is he's not a 'muso'. Like Whiley, he's a total sycophant and will 'big up' any shite band.

 

[stupid dogbot]

No arguments here.

 

[Refused as fuck]

I'd let her drop my name all night long.

Massive hypocrit. He will slag off a band one week and shamelessly arse lick them while they're on his show. Then go back to slagging them off.

 

[Pie 1]

Like Whiley, he's a total sycophant and will 'big up' any shite band.

I used to think he was ok at first when he was at XFM.
Then I heard him doing his ultra enthused 'muso' "this is seriously important, folks" schtick about Ufucking2 & chronically arselicking Bono on some R1 'exclusive' a few years back.

Fuck off, you daft cunt.

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

One of the problems with Lowe is the fact he's so patronising. He is desperatley trying to make the loweset common denominator understand his passion for whatever band the BBC have programmed into his tiny brain. This has the effect of insulting anyone with an IQ above 12

 

[lunatrick]

I think his music taste is reasonable, but he just has verbal diarrhea on the radio and just talks inanely about bands 'new directions' etc etc.....and he evidently finds it extremely boring when he's not aloud to talk i.e. at Glasto when Jo Whiley was wittering on - his eyes glazed over.

 

[rikwakefield]

Whoever said he was too earnest was bang on.

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

;-P

 

[Madusa]

So my mate's got on her FB status ''Just had breakfast with Zane Lowe'' so I comment ''what? with him with him?'' she wrote back:

as in im standing in my pj's, hungover and he walks up behind helen and i and asks if we went to the muse concert, we say we were at a wedding, he asks if the coffee is good, we say no... thats about it.. but in my mind it was a sit-down hour conversation over croissants and champagne..

Bless

 

[fogbat]

History's greatest monster, imo.

 

[Refused as fuck]

He'll be remembered for his role in the "final solution" more so than anyone else.

 

[DotCommunist]

The westwood of rock n indie

 

[Madusa]

stop being so foolish, boys.

 

[Fedayn]

Oooohh those people with opinions.....

 

[dodgepot]

The westwood of rock n indie

that's an insult to westwood, tbh.

 

[chazegee]

The real Wayne Gayle. I like him.

 

[Fedayn]

that's an insult to westwood, tbh.

It's a tricky one.

 

[chico enrico]

has a huge music collection and is clearly into a lot of interesting stuff.

shite and shite.

he will be into a lot of anaemic shitey indie music.

someone with a "huge music collection and is into a lot of interesting stuff" would have records by everyone from Larry Heard to Alvin Lucier, Cromagnon to Crass, Four Tops to the 4-Skins.

I doubt that is Mr 'Zane' Low (who incidentally is about 4ft tall)

kerb your vitriol

I really dont understand why he's so vilifed on here. granted I dont listen to radio 1 ever, least never in the time he's joined but i used to watch his mtv show Brand New and he seemed ok on that. Non offensive, like.

And he's like 6ft or something. Hang on, I'll write to my mate on fb and ask her

 

[stupid dogbot]

Because he's a twat...
