What I've Been Digging Lately

[el doctor]

The Rachels
Denali
Slowdive

i'm in the mood for some polyphonic spree-esque pop though. any suggestions?You mean Rachel's the post-rock band? Or is it another band...

[ohmygodyouaresogone]

400 Blows - Black Rainbow
Death From Above 1979 - You're A Woman, I'm A Machine
The Icarus Line - Penance Soiree

Back and forth between these three albums for the past few days.

The Icarus Line - Penance Soiree

Good stuff :thumb:

[SOS420]

On a dead machine great band
they are on purevolume

[Luxor]

I just bought My Bloody Valentine - Isn't Anything for $9.99 CDN at HMV. Pretty good deal, if I do say so myself.

I like Loveless, I hope this albums good as well.

[Master Arkam Kannon]

its grows on you in that its really different from Loveless, you can understand the vocals and its not as much of a living creature and seamless as Loveless.

[NineBitFable]

It actually didnt take any time at all for it to grow on me... Some of the tracks on it are just as good or better than anything loveless had to offer.

[hurley_j182]

Album Circle takes the square - As the roots undo

[Ornery Cephalopod]

I've been playing the crazy PS2 game Katamari Damacy, and I've been diggin' its crazy soundtrack.

Those crazy Japanese are crazy.

[Little Man being Erased]

Mainly Bright Eyes the last few days.

[Happymeal]

I've been playing the crazy PS2 game Katamari Damacy, and I've been diggin' its crazy soundtrack.

Those crazy Japanese are crazy.

You're not alone;) Best j-pop/rock/weird soundtrack ever. You gobbled up the rainbow yet?

[Iris]

I've been diggind the following:
Radiohead
Jeff Buckley
Damien Rice
Bright Eyes
Cursive

[Tapeworm]

That's a well crafted list there.

Except for Radiohead.

[Zappa]

Slowdive were a great band, I think.

[Little Man being Erased]

Except for Radiohead.
You will burn in hell for that :evil:

[br3ad_man]

I still think Radiohead are an excellent band, but I haven't listened to them for months and I don't plan to for a good while longer. Probably until they do another album actually.

[Tangy zizzle]

Cake made such a brilliant album in Fashion Nugget, that album is COOL forged on plastic.

[TosenDAndys]

For now im spinning eisley's room noises and white stripes' seven nation army

[br3ad_man]

I quite like Eisley.

[Interstate]

lately i've been listening to:

The Eels
The Doves
GY!BE
Manic Street Preachers
Elbow

[pixiesfanyo]

I've been listening to A Tribe Called Quest and Converge as of late.

Also Elliott Smith's Either/Or is a great album to lay around and contemplate too.

[ohmygodyouaresogone]

Primal Scream - Evil Heat.

Right now... The Lord Is My Shotgun.

[asymm]

Couple albums arrived in the mail, so they have been a-spinnin'

Stars of the Lid - The Ballasted Orchestra
and
M83 - Before The Dawn Heals Us
^ Came a day early, that was geekishly exciting

[biografiend]

You mean Rachel's the post-rock band? Or is it another band...
Rachel's the post-rock band. Most of their songs I got from soulseek had the "The" at the beginning, but i didn't know if the "the" was supposed to be at the beginning or not? :confused:

post-rock <3

[el doctor]

I've always just known then simply as Rachel's, although it's not important. The combination of post rock and classical really make the band incredible, in my opinion.

[shabutie]

This week I have been mostly diggin' The Hives and Glassjaw
So glassjaw fan, what do you think of Head Automatica???

I love um, I've really been diggin them fo shizzle....I'm going to see them in Dayton in about a month, *pumped*

[NineBitFable]

Radiohead- The Bends

I have a problem though... I dl'ed the bends cd from MSN, annnddd my version of Sulk stops randomly in the song.. is that part of the song or a bad download?
(Sorry if this sounds really stupid :) )

[Bartender]

I'm currently enjoying the Aeon Spoke demo which I got through the mail recently and which is surprisingly good, even to a Cynic splinter fanboy such as myself.

[Luxor]

I am now listening to "The Lonesome Crowded West" by Modest Mouse, it's good.

[Ornery Cephalopod]

You're not alone;) Best j-pop/rock/weird soundtrack ever. You gobbled up the rainbow yet?

Indeed. I conquered that sonuvagun.

Now I can't stop playing to get the eternals and presents and comets and just big balls in general and such.

I like to turn the tv up and play songs from the moon memorial when I'm cooking or doing whatever around the "pad" or "crib" or whatever the kids are calling it these days..

[Tangy zizzle]

Albums played today (and/or dug simultaneously):

Kills - Keep on your mean side
Nick Cave & Bad Seeds - Abbatoir Blues
Charles Mingus - Mingus Dynasty

[br3ad_man]

I've been pumping some hip-hop, mainly The Streets and Blackalicious.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, I've been listening to The Streets a bit recently too. Has anyone else seen the clip for Blinded by the Lights? It just got released here and I think it is bloody cool.

[Bandaid]

Mclusky - Do Dallas
Primus - Antipop
Mark Lanegan - Bubblegum

chewy goodness

[Tangy zizzle]

Yeah, I've been listening to The Streets a bit recently too. Has anyone else seen the clip for Blinded by the Lights? It just got released here and I think it is bloody cool.

That video pwns.

"I'mmmm mashed"

[br3ad_man]

Yeah, I've been listening to The Streets a bit recently too. Has anyone else seen the clip for Blinded by the Lights? It just got released here and I think it is bloody cool.

I haven't seen it but I'm interested, that's probably my favourite song off that album.

[pook]

ska and reggae. The bands Im always listens to is Bright eyes and At the Drive-In.

[Tapeworm]

Blinded By the Lights is such a great film clip. I love the way that he is able to use his film clips so well due to his lyrical style. Skinneeerrrr!!!

I've been digging Mr Buckley Jr.

[Luxor]

I'm in school. I'm listening to My Bloody Valentine, again.

[shabutie]

I'm in an obsessive streak right now of these bands and these bands only.

Dream Theatre
Pedro The Lion
Billy Idol
sigur ros
ray charles
and of course...I have to listen to some Bright Eyes.

[Wanker]

Whoa, you didn't just spell Dream Theater like that, did you?

You're lucky this is only Alt/Indie. They would've had your balls over in R&M.

[shabutie]

Whoa, you didn't just spell Dream Theater like that, did you?

You're lucky this is only Alt/Indie. They would've had your balls over in R&M.
lol sorry, I'm home sick on alot of medicine.

yet another reason I don't post over their.

[biografiend]

I've always just known then simply as Rachel's, although it's not important. The combination of post rock and classical really make the band incredible, in my opinion.

indeed. they are a great band.

thanks to br3ad, i've been listening to the lovely sounds of m83 lately.

[Tangy zizzle]

Slanted & Enchanted has been spun thrice this morning.

I have been awake for aboot 3 hours.

[Happymeal]

I've recently gotten into Ruins and la la la Lovage <3

[Luxor]

Whoa, you didn't just spell Dream Theater like that, did you?

You're lucky this is only Alt/Indie. They would've had your balls over in R&M.
Who the hell is Dureem Theetor? :confused:

[Bandaid]

Some Death From Above 1979 and NC and the Seeds today, i'm quit glad he emminates for australia

[wheelz]

DFA 1979 and les savy fav have been greatly dug by me recently.

[Tapeworm]

I just listened to Up the Bracket for the first time and it was ok. There were about 5 songs that I really liked a lot but it was let down by a tonne of crappy slow songs.

pscheckoutmynewavatarsweet.

[asymm]

Wilco - A Ghost Is Born
^ Underappreciated album. Sure it has flaws and it is isn't YHF, but it contains some extraordinarily emotive guitar work that I just love.

M83 - Before The Dawn Heals Us
^ Still great.

[Tomahawk]

I'm digging Blur right now. I've never really clicked with them before, but I'm listening to Parklife right now, and it's such a good album.

[Master Arkam Kannon]

I'm digging Blur right now. I've never really clicked with them before, but I'm listening to Parklife right now, and it's such a good album.

well played sir.

[YDload]

At the Drive-In's "Vaya" EP is possibly their best work. All the songs are great, but I really like the very last one. It would work well as a Sparta song, just from the mood.

[x the patient x6]

i bought Antics by Interpol the other day

its alright, i liked Turn on the Bright Lights better for the most part, but Antics definatly has its moments

[Ornery Cephalopod]

I forgot, and recent remembered, how groovy Friends of Dean Martinez can be.

[Tangy zizzle]

^ Seconded x 10.

I rarely mention that band though, I get selfish with them. Brilliant, brilliant music though.

[br3ad_man]

M83 - Before The Dawn Heals Us
^ Still great.

Such a great album.

[YDload]

OMG OMG OMG OMG!

I am in love with "198d," the last song on ATDI's "Vaya" EP. It's really really good, and now my hype has gone and ruined it for everyone. :(

But I don't care, because now it's all MINE.

[Lowend]

It's not all yours! I've been in love with that song forevah! i play along with the song all the time. the chorus makes that song f*cking amazing.

[YDload]

It's not all yours! I've been in love with that song forevah! i play along with the song all the time. the chorus makes that song f*cking amazing.

Whew, that's an awesome relief. Is that Cedric in your avatar?

I like how the lyrics still don't make much sense, but this time they at least use normal words to somehow create an atmosphere of power and beauty. And Jim screams "Walk away!" underneath the chorus of "Born in hearts/ Etched in cold/ at the first showing."

Good song.

[Lowend]

Yeah, that's Cedric with a little HUE adjustment.

[KappaKid17]

I've been diggin' The Battle of Los Angeles alot lately. Especially "Maria."

I miss RAGE :upset:

[Interstate]

I've been listening to The Hives and The Flaming Lips recently

[KappaKid17]

NOTICE

I'm stopping listening to most other music right now because I was just blown away by Paw Paw Tree by the Fiery Furnaces...

I may be dropping another $15 soon....

[Luxor]

^ Good song.

[Sgt._Joker]

any thing by Oasis

[Tangy zizzle]

Phoenix Foundation are good.

I blasted Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? this arvo', 'twas nice.

[Little Man being Erased]

^ Nice avatar.

I am interested in hearing more of the Unicorns.


EDIT: Oh, it's gone now.

[Tangy zizzle]

It's back again.

[Little Man being Erased]

For a second there, it seemed to be replaced by a set of boobs.

[Tangy zizzle]

Oh 'twas.

[Tomahawk]

Archers of Loaf - Icky Mettle
Camper Van Beethoven - Key Lime Pie
Guided by Voices - Bee Thousand

Been listening to these albums a lot in the past few days, they're all very awesome.

[pinkyeti]

I bought LCD soundsystem recently, good album.
I also enjoyed Wire's "Pink flag" lately.

[Happymeal]

When I go downtown I plan to get a Drive Like Jehu or/and a Hot Snakes album. Dunno when that'll be though. For now I'll stick to Audit in Progress. It didn't blow me away the first time, but I'm growing to like it very much. I want some more rock stuff like this in my life.

[Tangy zizzle]

Haha, baaahhhhh.

[br3ad_man]

I just watched my U2 Slane Castle DVD again. There's this part right at the end of the show, in "With Or Without You", Bono sings his high falsetto parts, then, right when Edge starts the D chord progression, Bono just weakly says "goodnight". That part really touched me. I'm having a bad day and that made it better. So I dug that.

[The Ashtray Girl]

Awesome. So pissed off I'm missing seeing them on their tour in the summer :(

I'm beginning to dig Hot Snakes, even though I'm still not convinced I like them.

[Iai]

Get Yank Crime.

[asymm]

Low - "The Great Destroyer"
^ It's been pretty damn good. While it is a slight departure in tempo, it still sounds very 'Low'. Even with songs that feel fast for them, their are still plenty of slower tempoed songs to counteract and balance this turning-point album. Overall, I think this album is just proof that this group has versatility behind their songs that wasn't fully realized before.

[biografiend]

i need new music to listen to. its been pretty constant with:
the rachels
slowdive
m83
slint
mahavishnu orchestra

*stands up*
*clears throat*
my name is sam and i am addicted to post rock.

[Happymeal]

try Dreamend's As if by Ghosts... They're kinda a mix of post rock, indie and even some shoegazer. Some mp3's here http://www.dreamend.com/music.html

[Electrocution]

Lately I've been listening to:

The Mars Volta (but then again, I always listen to them)
Cursive (again)
Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Smashing Pumpkins
Off Minor
The Plot To Blow Up The Eiffel Tower

I am really liking this Godspeed. It's a pity I didn't get into them earlier.

[Tangy zizzle]

Nice.

[Happymeal]

Thanks for the JR Ewing thread a few months ago, Tang. Ride Paranoia is rockin'

[Well_Respected_Man]

I've been listening to:

Can - Ege Bamyasi
This Heat - Self Titled
Nucleus - Roots

I'm such a hipster.

I ordered Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place by EITS last night, but it's going to take 20-30 days and I couldn't wait that long, so I burned a copy. I'm digging that right now.

[Tangy zizzle]

Thanks for the JR Ewing thread a few months ago, Tang. Ride Paranoia is rockin'

No problem. Those guys are off the heeze.

[Electrocution]

I am listening to Slint right now. Hot ****.

[Smackers]

I've really been diggin' Chuck Mangione and Tom Waits. I've got 'Feels so good' on vinyl and for Tom Waits I've been listening to a lot of 'Mule Variations'.

Some songs from 'Mule Variation' I've really been liking:
Big In Japan
Cold Water
Get Behind the Mule
Black Market Baby
Filipino Box Spring Hog

[Tangy zizzle]

Tom Waits is the goods.

If I was going to make a movie, which was slightly dark and twisted, I'd have lullaby as the backing music to a murder/rape scene.

[Smackers]

I really like the way Tom writes his lyrics. They're creepy and funny at the same time.

[Tangy zizzle]

Yeah he has a good take on songwriting.

[Smackers]

Yeah he does, I really like the way his song writing has changed over the years. But he older stuff has also held it's ground too. 'The Piano has been drinking' is probably my favorite from the 70's. It's nice to have a little humor in dark songs.

[Doctor D.]

I just listened to Up the Bracket for the first time and it was ok. There were about 5 songs that I really liked a lot but it was let down by a tonne of crappy slow songs.



Thats my exact reaction to that album. It was worth a download, but when space runs out, it'll be the first to go.

Anyway, I've basically been listening to Blackalicious,Hieroglyphics,Handsome Boy Modeling school, and Bear Suit.

[br3ad_man]

Trail of Dead's new album is rather nice.

[NineBitFable]

Trail of Dead's new album is rather nice.
I'd have to agree... Though overall not as good as Source Tags and Codes, just the sheer scope of what their doing I think is incredible. :thumb:
I hope on their next album they have more tracks like Ode To Isis... I REALLY think that track is just ultimately cool.

[Iris]

Recently I have been enjoying the likes of:
Cursive
Sunny Day Real Estate
Mineral
Saetia
Bright Eyes
Damien Rice
and Beck.

..I haven't posted in a while.

http://www.musicianforums.com/sputnik/album.php?reviewid=1763&genreid=1

check my reivew :). Let It Dive is my favourite off there and I think 'Caterwaul' is the best on it.

[reaper596]

what do you guys think are better ectric drums or normal drums im interested to hear what you guys have to say coz im gonna buy one but i dont know what sort as of yet

[reaper596]

whats betta eclectric drums or normal drums

[br3ad_man]

Depends on the situation. Normal drums in most cases.

[biografiend]

I love you :)

I ordered Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place by EITS last night, but it's going to take 20-30 days and I couldn't wait that long, so I burned a copy. I'm digging that right now.

That cd is usually always in my alarm clock, so i usually wake up feeling all chilled out. its very nice. :)

[Tapeworm]

I have been really digging Cat Power a lot lately. I realized that her songs would sound really good covered by a rock band.

[br3ad_man]

That cd is usually always in my alarm clock, so i usually wake up feeling all chilled out. its very nice. :)

I love you even more :)

I always have it playing in my head when I wake up. It's like it's actually playing but it's not.

[The Ashtray Girl]

It's only early, and today I've already really got into:

Trail Of Dead
The Unicorns
William Shatner
Bloc Party
Kaiser Chiefs
Lemon Jelly
Tool
The Smashing Pumpkins
GYBE

It's gonna be a fantastic day.

[thetwaz]

The Skatalites

[*H*J*]

try :
bloc party
endochine
Dispatch
british sea power
fuel
rooney
soul coughing
the decemberists
the wrens
etc etc!!
the used

[asymm]

Archer Prewitt - "Wilderness"

Beautiful, eloquent, and well crafted. This is the type of strong songwriting that will fall through the cracks. This previous member of the Sea and Cake has created an amazing pop album with a slight wave of melancholy covering it's tunes.

[Electrocution]

I have been really digging Cat Power a lot lately. I realized that her songs would sound really good covered by a rock band.
I love the song "Free." I've been meaning to check out more, but I've never gotten around to it.

[pinkyeti]

the weakerthans & weezer & miles davis' "bitches brew" is what I've been diggin' lately.

[biografiend]

I love you even more :)

I always have it playing in my head when I wake up. It's like it's actually playing but it's not.

Today:
Frou Frou
Yes

[el doctor]

My brother sent me a whole mix CD that will be occupying my time for a while, although certain albums more than others. I had heard most of the stuff already, but the inclusion of AH, Folkways, and Intoxicated Spirit is pretty new and different for me.

Ben Lee - Breathing Tornados
Bhagavan Das - AH
Folkways
Janis Joplin - 18 Essential Songs
Jonathan Fire Eater - Wolf Songs For Lambs
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - Intoxicated Spirit
Sleater-Kinney - Dig Me Out
T. Rex - Tanx & Electric Warrior
The Rapture - Echoes & Out of the Races and Onto the Tracks

[Zappa]

Suffocation, possibly the best New York death metal band of all time.

[Iai]

Nothing like specifics.

[Zappa]

Well, New York, Canadian, Floridian, and Gothenburg are all very different. No use comparing bands from the different styles.

[Iai]

I know. It's a joke from a sitcom over here.

Right this second I'm digging Royksopp. I really wish they'd included the CD single remix of Remind Me on Melody AM as a bonus track, but never mind. Guess I'll have to track down the single.

[AK47]

Blueberry Boat

[Electrocution]

I downloaded this song from The Honorary Title called "Bridge and Tunnel." I like it. Are they any good?

[pixiesfanyo]

Xiu Xiu - Fabulous Muscles

[Zappa]

Queens of the Stone Age self-titled. I never really bothered with any QOTSA but SFTD, but I'm finally getting into this tonight.

[pixiesfanyo]

Nobody cares faggot. And by faggot I mean Zappa.

<3, Pix.

[pixiesfanyo]

ahaha I am listening to The Shouty Track right now

I am downloading some Mono...it better be good.

[Little Man being Erased]

Disintegration

[Master Arkam Kannon]

Talking Heads - Remain in Light

[Tomahawk]

I went to the Big Day Out yesterday, and I saw the Polyphonic Spree, and it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. ****ing hell. If any of you ever have a chance to see them live, do it, it's insane. I'm still in awe.

So yeah, I'm digging them.

Also the Blues Explosion are fantastic live.

[thriftstoresweater]

a girl band!! *woot woot* Stars, i just cant remember the name of their songs

[Master Arkam Kannon]

Also the Blues Explosion are fantastic live.

i passed up going to their show for some reason (cause i wanted to go then just didnt) and i finally downloaded one song by them, and that one song alone made me want to hang myself for not going.

[Tomahawk]

I'd barely heard anything of theirs, what I'd heard didn't blow me away... but live they're just amazing. Face melting rock awesomeness.

Tangy, you saw the Explosion at the NZ BDO, right? What was the last song they played? Hopefully the setlist was the same as Melbourne's, because whatever they played last blew me away.

[Robert Crumb]

Last week it was Guided by Voices, this week it's The Velvet Underground because I bought the Peel Slowly and See box set for no better reason than it was $30.

[Sound Boy]

spiritualized
sigur ros
grant lee buffalo
minus the bear
New Amsterdams
Kent
Mike Doughty
Talib Kweli

[br3ad_man]

Spiral Architect are appealing to my cheesy side but only because of the bassing.

[Bartender]

Bar listening to an extreme metal compilation Jondur sent me a while ago, I've been having something of a Flaming Lips day today. I'm coming to the end of the Soft Bulletin, for the first time in a long while, now, and I'm thinking of spinning Yoshimi.. afterwards.

[Doctor D.]

So far this morning it's been:

Butthole Surfers
MC 900ft Jesus
DJ Signify

[Eryn]

The Weakerthans: Albums; (fallow), (left and leaving), and (reconstruction site).
Van Morrison- moondance (album not just song)

[Luxor]

So far today I've listened to:

The Fiery Furnaces - EP
Mogwai - Come On Die Young
...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Worlds Apart

[asymm]

So far today I've listened to:

The Fiery Furnaces - EP

Right on. Enjoyable, isn't it?

[el doctor]

Today I've been listening to "Fun Trick Noisemaker" from the Apples in Stereo. Next album I'm going to revisit and love all over again: Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye

[vallely2004]

Biffy Clyro - Infinity Land
Interpol - Antics

[pinkyeti]

buck 65. That's great stuff.

[*H*J*]

I really like the song Maps by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs... Can someone recommend me some other songs to check out?
stuf like Air, the unicorns, yea i love that song its imense!!!

[Tangy zizzle]

I'd barely heard anything of theirs, what I'd heard didn't blow me away... but live they're just amazing. Face melting rock awesomeness.

Tangy, you saw the Explosion at the NZ BDO, right? What was the last song they played? Hopefully the setlist was the same as Melbourne's, because whatever they played last blew me away.

Um, um um. I'm not sure right now. Their show is kind of a blur because they didn't stop at all between songs. Once one was finished they just launched into another one, which was cool.

[Little Man being Erased]

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Worlds Apart
I got this yesterday, I've listened to about half of it and I already love it.

[Tapeworm]

Today i'm diggin Fugazi, Bright Eyes, The Cure, Hope of the States and Joy Division.

[Luxor]

Right on. Enjoyable, isn't it?
Yeah, it's good.

[br3ad_man]

Hope of the States

madcore

[Prolapsed]

the oldies...

yer shins, coldplay, some nine inch nails (kickin' the Fragile), ...trail of dead, Eagles of Death Metal, type o, queens of the stone age, the cure, the pixies. I'd say a bit varied but still some goodies.

Also ive taken much interest in Clint Mansell the score-composer for Reqiuem for a Dream- amongst other good film noirs, and Hanz Zimmer's OST stuff is borderline excellence too.

[Zephadis]

Alot of The Faint and Death From Above.

[Tapeworm]

Choice excellent choices.

[giventofly]

my brother introduced me to pavement, and i wanna hear some more from them, i need to find a good cd by them...although i'm sure they're all good

Mr. Bungle- After School Special

I had it on my computer for a while, but never listened to it through headphones. You miss a lot without that. :(

Next up: Platypus.

[Electrocution]

I have a ton of Pavement. IM me if you want some - thefarrinator18

Does anyone have some Mono?

[hoggle]

just got that modest mouse album today.......pretty good...
apart from that bin listenin to bell x1 alot lately. great band.

[Prolapsed]

Mr. Bungle- After School Special

I had it on my computer for a while, but never listened to it through headphones. You miss a lot without that. :(


I've never had the opportunity of listening to that album with headphones on straight through. But it's definetly nessesary. "Violence Domestica" has so many little parts that are hard to catch without headphones.
It's like watching A Clockwork Orange and being that kid in the institution with the violent problems... :amaze:

[Well_Respected_Man]

Hatfield and the North, Nucleus, and early Pink Floyd.

[thriftstoresweater]

death from above,the used and motion city soundtrack

[Happymeal]

White People and The Best Best of Fela Kuti

[milkandlaxatives]

today has definitely been a weezer day.

[mr_jackalope]

Juno is the band of today! Yay!

[Zmev]

Deadbolt by Thrice is byfar the song of the day.

[ATM]

Kings of Convenience.

[YDload]

The Arcade Fire are on Conan right now. There's a strange beauty to their music that's always appealing to me. Didn't know it would take so many instruments though.

[Tapeworm]

I just bought Nick and the Seeds' No More Shall We Part, I haven't listened to it yet, as it is being pushed back by my current obsession with Cat Power and Murder City Devils.

[in_the_sun]

Patrick Park. Anything by Patrick Park - but especially 'Something Pretty'

[br3ad_man]

I'm listening to The Stooges.

Devendra banhart. Oh my gosh, he's so awesome. He needs more recognition. I knew his name for some time but i just recently discovered the music, and what good music it is :)

The lyrics are so cool; Little yellow spider laughing at the snow, maybe that spider knows something that i don't know cause i'm goddamn cold!

How cool is that :) From the song Little Yellow Spider. You peeps should check it out :)..

[Bartender]

I've been listening to Kaada/Patton's Romances album a lot today. It's really grown on me since I first got it.

[Tangy zizzle]

I bought Worlds Apart yesterday, pretty dissapointing.

I've been listening to Kaada/Patton's Romances album a lot today. It's really grown on me since I first got it.

I liked it quite well the first time I heard it, and have only had the urge to put it on once since then. Reverse reactions!

[BillCosby]

Low are cool.

[Little Man being Erased]

I bought Worlds Apart yesterday, pretty dissapointing.
I thought it was quite good, maybe not as good as Source Tags, but still good.

[Interstate]

bands/artists that i've listened to alot the past few days:

The Hives
Ben Folds
Interpol
Manic Street Preachers
Ambulance LTD.
Elbow

[YDload]

The Jesus Lizard- Nub

[Dancin' Man]

Normally a metal head I've been listening to a lot of post-rock lately.

Does Sigur Ros count as post-rock?

Sigur Ros
All the side projects of GY!BE and GY!BE themselves
Pelican (post metal?)

[asymm]

Low are cool.

Recently:

Bark Psychosis - Codename: Dustsucker

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm currently revisiting The Shins because I'm seeing them on saturday night.

[NineBitFable]

Listening right now to Pixes Surfer Rosa... I then plan on listening to My Bloody Valentine.

In other news, it turns out I spent about a hundred and fifty dollars last month on music. Ouch, guess whos broke now?

[Happymeal]

^ouch.

I have the sudden urge to check out Jagjaguwar Records' bands right now.

$150 in a month isn't that bad. But I'm guessing you have no source of income other than your parents.

[NineBitFable]

got that right... Could get a job if I wanted... but I dont care that much I'll just have to wait a little longer to buy cds.

[Zappa]

I'm listening to this demo I got from a drummer who played at the local art gallery some months ago. His name is M.Sord, and he's a cool dude.

[Tapeworm]

I listened to Lyre of Orpheus/Abbatoir Blues this morning and I was bloweded away.

[br3ad_man]

Pelican (post metal?)

I'm interested.

I've been listening to Maudlin of the Well. Very interesting band.

[Tomahawk]

I've pretty much only been listening to:

The Polyphonic Spree
The Beach Boys
Mercury Rev

So that sort of stuff. Can anybody suggest some other bands along those lines? Other than the obvious ones?

[Tangy zizzle]

Dios Malos maybe?

[pinkyeti]

I've been listening to some Can lately, I think I'll get 'Monster Movie' soon.

[KappaKid17]

I read Oedipus Rex and The Bacchae the other night while listening to Explosions in the Sky, and it was surreal.

Oh yeah, I'm really digging EiTS right now...again.

[talk show host]

I listened to Xiu Xiu earlier and had lots of fun.

[Tapeworm]

Question Time!!!!!

Did J Mascis play all the lead guitar for Dino Joonya?

If so, wow.

[Happymeal]

Well there were only the three of them so I guess so Tapeworm sir.

[Tapeworm]

Intriguing, I wasn't sure of the amount of members. I guess he just played both/all parts on records.

Best. Guitarist. Ever.

[Robert Crumb]

Dios Malos maybe?

/agree

[Electrocution]

Saetia sound like they have somewhat of a Slint influence.

/random observation

[el doctor]

I liked it quite well the first time I heard it, and have only had the urge to put it on once since then. Reverse reactions!It's a great album, but I think it lacks some of the long term appeal of some of Patton's other stuff.

[YDload]

Mr. Bungle- Ars Moriendi

Thanks to Zappa for the song (and for el doctor for the recommendation). Eastern European folk metal is just what I was looking for.

[Iai]

J Mascis was called 'the indie Jimi Hendrix' by Q this month.

Anyway, I feel like I should be digging Rufus Wainwright's Want Two, because I read some reviews and I already love the album, despite having not heard a note of it.

I actually have been digging Dinosaur Jr, and L'Arc~En~Ciel.

[3rdplanet]

I have been listening to Cursive a lot for quite a while, but can't find any bands like them, or bands that make a good progression from them into more alt. music, do anybody have any recommendations?

[Happymeal]

^The Good Life, lol. Check out the whole Saddle Creek batallion(Azure Ray, The Faint, Bright Eyes, etc).

Mr. Bungle- Ars Moriendi

Thanks to Zappa for the song (and for el doctor for the recommendation). Eastern European folk metal is just what I was looking for.

If you like a Mr. Bungle with less metal and more prog noodling, you might like Ruins.

[incubliss]

haven't listened to Incubus in a while, so i've been listening to them alllll day.

[Smackers]

Mr. Bungle- Ars Moriendi

That's my favorite track off of 'California'.

I've been really getting in to Tub Ring a lot lately. At first I didn't think I'd like them to much, but once I got through several of their songs, I've gotten hooked.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Dig it, it's incredible. :thumb:

And L'Arc En Ciel, I've been getting into them too lately. Ready Steady Go :)

[NineBitFable]

into Swervedriver and a band called Singapore Sling... Pretty good stuff.

[talk show host]

Mr. Bungle- Ars Moriendi



'Tis a good song indeed. You should try "None of them knew they were robots..." and "Goodbye Sober Day" off of the same album for pure awesomeness.

[biografiend]

Tilly and the Wall
Frankenixon
Slint
Bjork

[Iai]

Dig it, it's incredible. :thumb:

Nice. :)

So far today I have been mostly digging Kraftwerk and The Clash. And Bill Bailey.

[talk show host]

the Amelie soundtrack is so very good.

[asymm]

so far today...

Echo & the Bunnymen - "Ocean Rain"
- Brilliant brilliant dark '80s post punk

[Scott Herren]

Kings of Convenience - Riot on an Empty Street

[asymm]

Kings of Convenience - Riot on an Empty Street
Mmmm.... I like that album.

[Tapeworm]

Ahhh feel the love.

/just got home stoned at 8:30 AM and got accepted into university and is listening to Dino Joonya.

[Electrocution]

I am listening to As Tall As Lions.

Grrreat!

[3rdplanet]

After extensive Cursive-a-like research, I have came back with these good bands, who are not a bit like Cursive.

Péle
The Dismemberment Plan
Murder by Death
Brazil
and Minus the Bear

Who I all quite enjoy.

Now I just need money to order CDs.

[incubliss]

Murder by Death are amazing, i absolutely adore them.

i've been digging my Codeseven albums again lately, especially The Rescue and Dancine Echoes / Dead Sounds. love their later sound compared to pre-The Rescue. Danger is still without a doubt, one of my favourite songs ever, and i'm sure 30562171 (the number mod) would agree with me. such a moving song, got me through alot of bad times, and bulls*it, and i'm grateful for it being there.

[Iai]

Just downloaded Want Two by Rufus Wainwright.

Good stuff.

[Luxor]

I need to get some stuff by The Dismemberment Plan. I'll search for some on slsk tonight.

[3rdplanet]

I would say they were the most Cursive-esque of the bands I found, love their range of instruments, and the vocals.

I only have two Mp3s :( , but this will be the first CD I purchase I reckon.

[Electrocution]

Minus The Bear is wunderbar.

[3rdplanet]

I need to get some stuff by The Dismemberment Plan. I'll search for some on slsk tonight.

There *are* loads of Mp3s on their website/record labels site.

[Luxor]

/me looks

[AK47]

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.

[Happymeal]

Péle


They have some nice, upbeat guitar work for post-rock. They're pretty fun to listen to.


Hm, I'm thinking of buying myself a birthday gift this weekend. What cd shall it be.. *strokes premature beard* I wanted to go to Sam's at downtown but it's too far =/ They have the best selection ever(from what I've seen around here).

I think I'll pick up Les Savy Fav's or Guided by Voices' best of. They good?

[Tangy zizzle]

No.

Buy this: Afghan Whigs - Congregation

[Tangy zizzle]

Albums I played this week.

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Abbatoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus
TV on the Radio - Young Liars
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow
Trail of Dead - Worlds Apart
Beck - Odelay

[Luxor]

What's Nick Cave like?

[talk show host]

What's Nick Cave like?

He's amazing. Quite an aggressive singer/songwriter with awesome lyrics.

Definately check him out

[Bandaid]

'Get ready for love' is quite possibley the most foot-tapping-head-bopping 1st song on a disc in the history of australian music

[wheelz]

today i bought m83 - before the dawn heals us, air - talkie walkie, talking heads - speaking in tounges, animal collective - sung tongs, gang of four - entertainment!, and mf doom - mm... food.

[indy_undy]

Is Rufus Wainwrights new album worth owning?

Now you're allowed to post in this forum, I guess.

[talk show host]

Why can I not get enough of Mr. Bungle - California

[Iai]

Is Rufus Wainwrights new album worth owning?
I would say, yes, undoubtedly.

Today I have been going through albums I have but haven't rated yet on RYM. So I have digging Bill Hick's Rant In E Minor, and Fleetwood Mac's self-titled.

Later I shall probably get stuck into Penderecki's Matrix 5. Should be fun.

[Zappa]

I ripped 4 of my dad's Ry Cooder albums last night and this morning. I just put on Bop Till You Drop, and I like what I hear.

[el doctor]

Why can I not get enough of Mr. Bungle - CaliforniaBecause it's more more entertaining and inviting than challenging. ;)

I woke up this morning to the sound of Air's Moon Safari. 'Twas a good morning. :)

[Zappa]

So I've been listening to some more Ry Cooder, and I've decided that his Paradise and Lunch album is something of a masterpiece.

[Luxor]

Today I've listened to:

The Fiery Furnaces - EP
Strike Anywhere - Change Is A Sound
Choking Victim - No Gods, No Managers
Thursday - Full Collapse
Between The Buried And Me - The Silent Circus

[YDload]

So I've been listening to some more Ry Cooder, and I've decided that his Paradise and Lunch album is something of a masterpiece.

Is Ry Cooder that guy who is considered one of the greatest country guitarists ever? I'm pretty sure he even made the Rolling Stone list (somewhere in the top ten or twenty).

[Zappa]

I suppose so, yes.

[Ornery Cephalopod]

The other day I bought:

Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless

...so I've been diggity-diggin' them up.

[pinkyeti]

Blackalicious.

[br3ad_man]

sik 1 m83. That's such a sweet album.

I'm really digging Arcade Fire. I almost bought the latest Nick Cave yesterday on sale and I will buy it eventually, I just have to get around to it.

[Tapeworm]

'Get ready for love' is quite possibley the most foot-tapping-head-bopping 1st song on a disc in the history of australian music
Amen.

Nick Cave is my man of the week. I've also been diggin' Danse Macabre as I gave the my DJ friend the album and now she plays it all the time and it's freakin great.

[thriftstoresweater]

yeah yeah yeahs
