What I've Been Digging Lately

[br3ad_man]

I got "The Downward Spiral" by Nine Inch Nails today. By the first sounds of it, I don't think I like it anywhere near as much as "The Fragile"

[Tangy zizzle]

I got Hot Head - Introducing Captain Beefheart yesterday. It's quite cool. It is like a best of sorta thing, but it has nothing off of Trout Mask Replica...

I'd give it a solid 4.1/5 myself.

[DeaDAnDBloateD]

lately--stone temple piolots and guster and afghan whigs and alice in chains and mother love bone and a lot of rhcp

[CarnageFairy]

Currently digging:

Neutral Milk Hotel
The Pixies
Death Cab for Cutie

I really like the song Maps by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs... Can someone recommend me some other songs to check out?

Y-Control
Art Star is pretty cool, too.

AMAZING is all I have to say about them. All the songs are incredibly well structured for a band of their genre. Very catchy as well.

some new bands i've been into lately include, the Von Bondies (the're kind of glammy), The Good Life (Tim Kasher of Cursive's other band), and Money Mark (complete electronica, but very good), and Elbow (indie pop-ish, but fvck genre, they're just good).

[crazyGUITARnDRUMgal]

Lagwagon
Firewater
My Morning Jacket
PJ Harvey
Incubus...

ive been listening to those bands a ton lately

[crazyGUITARnDRUMgal]

I really like the song Maps by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs... Can someone recommend me some other songs to check out?

I really dont think that their are any other songs on their CD that are similar or compare to Maps..

[2887]

The Toadies
older Deftones
The Who

[Luxor]

I think I can now call myself a Flaming Lips fan... I recently downloaded a bunch of their songs and I'm liking them quite a bit.

Right now I'm listening to American Football. Good songs to check out:

Honestly?
Never Meant
The Summer Ends
For Sure

[Tangy zizzle]

I've been super-digging John Zorn/Naked City and John Coltrane today.

Other than a John Frusciante and Omar rodriguez jam, they are all I have listened to!

[d-dizzle]

you guys should really check out skafish a totally underground band from northwest indiana check out skafish.com for some sample music by the way who is sticky

[br3ad_man]

Get Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots......it is sooooooo good. It made it's way to number two in my top 10 albums within about 3 weeks.

[br3ad_man]

Oh....I bought The Soft Bulletin last weekend. So far, I haven't found it to be the big brother to Yoshimi that you think it is. When you bought it, was it an instant classic, or a grower?

EDIT: To OrbDragon

[Master Arkam Kannon]

When you bought it, was it an instant classic, or a grower?

EDIT: To OrbDragon

its a grower, or it was to me, plus after hearing some of it live then hearing it again, it instantly put it way up there for me, give it time, you will love it...

[zeuxia]

Lately I've really been into the Pogues, Guided by Voices, The Format and Modest Mouse. Definitely check out the Format if you get a chance.. they're new on the scene.

I love Good News For People Who Love Bad News. It's probably my favorite album.

There's a local band from northwest IN/IL called Nomad Planets. They have a Tom Petty/Neil Young sound. They're awesome.

I've been listening to some of The Smiths' stuff too. Some of my favorites are "Panic", "Pretty Girls Make Graves", "How Soon Is Now?".

[Tangy zizzle]

Can, it's all about Can!

[br3ad_man]

I've been into some film scores. I like "Shawshank Redemtion" and I'm listening to Star Trek now.

Anyway, I've been digging "Vespetine" by Bjork. I would describe it as "Kid A" by Radiohead except with an amazing female vocalist.

I've been rockin out to PJ Harvey, the John Butler Trio, and Supergrass.

[shane italian]

Xiu Xiu
the Unicorns

They have been rocking my playlist's.I just saw the Unicorns last night. I wasn't a big fan of their recorded stuff, but I will say that they impressed me live. The Arcade Fire were also very enjoyable.

[Luxor]

Xiu Xiu's good, I haven't heard anything by The Unicorns though.

[giventofly]

dude, i highly encourage everyone to listen to opaline by dishwalla...i'm not really sure if it's a new or old song but it kicks ***

[Master Arkam Kannon]

Xiu Xiu
the Unicorns

They have been rocking my playlist's.

they are going on tour sometime in july which should be quite an interesting site to see, i'm hoping they use visuals in a remarkable way, cause they seem like a band that would work best if we had something to see along with the music...

ive been expirencing broken spindles, mission of burma's vs., !!!'s louden it up, and now primal scream's XTRMNTR all of which seem to be some great variety between each other...

[br3ad_man]

I'm digging Bjork. She's good :thumb:

[Tangy zizzle]

Xiu Xiu are actually blowing me away at the moment, a very quality band.

[br3ad_man]

I'm really liking the Deftones. I'm digging "White Pony"

White Pony is a top-shelf album. Most definately one of my favourite Metal albums, and Deftones are most definately one of my favourite metal bands - up there with Mastodon, BTBAM, Ephel Duath and the Melvins.

I love Metal!

[WrongWay]

even though they arent new i just bought Pearl Jam's Ten. thats an awesome cd

They're awesome live, so energetic, they get really into it.

[wheelz]

although i know it's blasphemy in this forum, i never really knew much pixies music....

and then when i first listened to a lot of pixies songs, i was disappointed because i had them so hyped up....

but the pixies have really grown on me. and lately i've been listening to a lot of pixies. hence, they've been dug by me lately, although you've all heard them before.

[Zerogravity]

Stereophonics - Performance and Cocktails
REM - Automatic for the People (their best album)
Ash - 1977 (also, their best)
The Verve - Bittersweet symphony

...And You Will Know us By The Trail of Dead

That's what happened to me as well. The Pixies get too much hype, because they are awesome, but they aren't God.

[Tangy zizzle]

I agree with you guys. I mean I like the Pixies, but they don't come across to me as being that good. Sure they were an awesome band and they did alot for modern alternative, but they dont deserve the super high status thet they have.

*prepares to be crucified*

[Luxor]

I never used to be a fan of Coldplay, but recently my dad wanted me to make him a CD with of bunch of their songs... I'm kinda diggin' them now.

[Recycled Air]

Well, a cool new(ish) band I've been listening to alot lately is These Arms Are Snakes . They are a post-hardcore,art punky band who have one EP out called This is Mean to Hurt You.



these arms are snakes are really good-- other bands related by members(to these arms are snakes) are really good as well... like botch and minus the bear, kill sadie, and roy. ((in my opinion nothing can ever be better then botch)) :)

[Tangy zizzle]

I prefer Minus the Bear over Botch, but prefer Snakes over both of them.

[Recycled Air]

Death cab is so good((I just saw them a few weeks ago)), and sigur ros is pretty good though they will never live up to the Icelandic goddess bjork. The blood brothers are great and the violent femmes don’t float my boat. I’m going to check out the Melvins though. Yay for joy division and the smiths, the cure, ect. I’ve heard such great things about TV on the radio I’m going to check them out.

Hehe silly the deftones aren’t metal, they are amazing but not metal.

I don’t understand any appeal to the yeah yeah yeahs, but if you like them have fun.

What I’ve been listening to:
Badly drawn boy
Broken social scene
Keane
Matt Pond PA
Last days of April
Lisa Loeb
Part chimp

and a little pantera.

[Tangy zizzle]

Wow, that post is hard to make sense of.

Deftones are a metal band man.

[Recycled Air]

I prefer Minus the Bear over Botch, but prefer Snakes over both of them.

I swear I'll stop posting a lot, but have you heard anthing off the new EP? it's so amazing. Minus the Bear never fail.

deftones are not metal.

oh and sorry for the confusion :rolleyes:

Nope, havn't heard any of their new stuff. I'm guessing it's good?

...Deftones ARE a metal band man! If they arent, what are they?

[wheelz]

i just got the shins "chutes too narrow" today... wow. a few months ago i just thought they were some crap overrated indie band... i hadn't even heard a single song off this cd it turns out, and the stuff off "oh, inverted world!" i've heard grew on me a while ago.

this really is a great cd... anyone who hasn't heard it should really check it out. i'm not gonna recommend any songs off of it, because they're really all great.

ok, i'll recommend "young pilgrim". but really, if you haven't heard much from this band and are into the indie rock thing, this is a must listen. and the packaging is just the coolest.

ok i'm done gushing. but i promise you you'll be impressed.

[Tapeworm]

That cd is incredible. One of the best that I've bought this year.

[Recycled Air]

Nope, havn't heard any of their new stuff. I'm guessing it's good?

...Deftones ARE a metal band man! If they arent, what are they?

alright, you are right... but they are more industrial-pop metal then pure metal.

[wheelz]

That cd is incredible. One of the best that I've bought this year.

it'll be the best i bought till the new interpol in september...

it really is great though. so catchy.

oh yeah download "turn a square" too. but really you should just buy it.

[br3ad_man]

I almost got "Jeff Buckley Live In Chicago" for 5 dollars on video today, but for some stupid reason, I decided against it. My friend picked me up an asian copy of it though, so it's all good. :thumb:

I also got "White Pony"

[Tangy zizzle]

I just got

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme

Ha I'm wrong. Mascara is on Around the Fur... my bad!

Cool song though.

[br3ad_man]

Cool, I'm getting that album soon :thumb:

[Tangy zizzle]

It fails in comparison to White Pony but is still one of the best nu-metal recordings ever made.

Listening to the new Beastie Boys album right now, it's decent, not as good as Hello Nasty. I'm sure it'll grow on me though.

Songs-
Fly Or Die

Drill Sergeant

EDIT: ooh, forgot about REM, Nacho covered em though.

[Little Man being Erased]

I just got Desaparecidos - Read Music/Speak Spanish the other day and I am loving it. But I suppose you could say that I am a little biased because I'm such a big fan of Bright Eyes. Regardless, it is a great album.

[The Ashtray Girl]

Just got both Streets albums - absolutely incredible, Mike Skinner is a genius at being so painfully truthful. I haven't been this excited about listening to something since I first got hold of OK Computer, I don't think.

[Tangy zizzle]

I've been listening to a band called Hot Snakes. Very very cool, they have the lead singer from Drive Like Jehu.

[Tapeworm]

YES!!! "A Grand Don't Come For Free" is an incredible album.

[br3ad_man]

I'm from Bundaberg man, I think I already told you like in the Blink thread or something. heh.
Oh ok, sorry. That's cool though. I'm from the Gold Coast if I haven't told you.

Anyway, I've been checking out some bands I haven't heard before. So far I've checked out QOTSA, Tomahawk and Kyuss. All great bands. I'm also listening to the Fantomas' first album. It's pretty good, but nothing on Delirium Cordia.

[Zappa]

I'm also listening to the Fantomas' first album. It's pretty good, but nothing on Delirium Cordia.

It's about 100x better.

[Luxor]

They have a song on www.epitonic.com from !!!'s new album Louden Up Now. It's sick, I'm going to have to buy this album.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Stooges - No Fun has been declared Tangy Zizzle's Official Album of The Week

[br3ad_man]

It's about 100x better.

I disagree, but I can understand why you'd think that.

[iveseenthedark]

What I recommend that everyone have a listen to is the Hope Of The States album Lost Riots....this is an amazing debut and well worth try to get holed of...especially the special edition version......also got the new The Killers album Hot Fuss.....quite good first couple of tracks worth a listen.......

also althought i have not got it yet...the new album by The Jeevas....only just heared of them but they have Crispen Mills of Kula Shaker fame fronting so it might be a bit of an old skool vibe this week.....

also been play in explosions in the sky for a bit of chilled....and Waxwing and further seems forever for the old emo dosage....

looking at the list tho, i think i might be getting a bit soft so might have to put on some of the old throwdown, beecher etc next week to bring up my hardcore status

[OrbDragon]

The Icarus Line are very cool, gettin' into them.


I'm seeing them in about a month and a half...great band.

[OrbDragon]

I'm also seeing Mastodon in two months...both gigs in my local venue...am I lucky or what.

[666_Heretic]

i have been listening to TONS of Smashing Pumpkins. they are an amazing band.

Some songs by them that are amazing are:
I Am One
Disarm
Mayonaise
Today
Zero
1979
Cherub Rock
Perfect
Today
Tonight, Tonight

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm also seeing Mastodon in two months...both gigs in my local venue...am I lucky or what.

You lucky Bastard! Mastodon and the Icky Line!! Where are you? That must be one cool venue.

[OrbDragon]

You lucky Bastard! Mastodon and the Icky Line!! Where are you? That must be one cool venue.

It seems all the big up and coming acts come to my local venue (which is in Holland, in my hometown, about a 5 minute walk away). Not too long ago, Brant Bjork and Nick Oliveri gigged there too...it was awesome.


The Darkness and The Hives played there before they made it big too.

[br3ad_man]

^^^ Man you are lucky!!!


I had no idea you were into metal like Mastodon. Learn something new every day, don't you?

I'm into QOTSA and Kyuss. I've also been listeing to "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine on and off this week.

[clown_phobia]

what would you recommend by QOTSA?

[br3ad_man]

Have a look in the thread, Tangy posted a heap of songs, just get those.

[Tomahawk]

OK right now i'm getting rocked by Neil Young, which I didn't really expect. I've only got the "Harvest" album, but it's pretty **** good.

And I've also been listening to My Morning Jacket, Galaxie 500, the Grateful Dead, and a bit of Paul McCartney.

[uglycosmonaut]

I've been listening to Ben Kweller

[Tangy zizzle]

Today I checked out.

Lightning Bolt
Elliot Smith

Both pretty cool.

[iveseenthedark]

^^ Elliott Smith is a good choice......Roman Candle particular fav of mine

[br3ad_man]

I really gotta get around to checking out Elliot. I'll do it tomorrow.

[Tapeworm]

I really gotta get around to checking out Elliot. I'll do it tomorrow.

There's ... No ... TIME ... MAN!!!

Check him out now you crazy crazy fool.

[br3ad_man]

Dude, it's 11:30 and I'm dead, I'd rather listen to him when I'm awake and responsive. I'll download some of his songs now and listen to him tomorrow.

[br3ad_man]

Crap, I just read that he killed himself last year. Well that totally sucks. I hate hearing about suicide. It's sucks beyond words.

:upset: x10000

and I haven't even heard him yet...

[rooneyfan101]

ROONEY!
Rooney is one of the greatest bands that have yet to be really noticed!

[bigac]

i like pixies mmmmmmm

[minnieme01]

ROONEY!
Rooney is one of the greatest bands that have yet to be really noticed!

they are kinda noticed, i saw them in concert on the 4th and there was a huge crowd, but yeah, i've been digging them, and i also saw jet put out a great performance, so i'm back into digging jet. i also enjoy the redwalls- great band, THEY'RE yet to be really noticed.

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm really liking the Tony Sly half of the Tony Sly/Joey Cape Acoustic EP, very cool stuff.

[br3ad_man]

I'm listening to a lot of acoustic stuff. Nick Drake, Ani DiFranco (particularly the song "Swan Dive") and Damien Rice.

[Tapeworm]

I'm really liking the Tony Sly half of the Tony Sly/Joey Cape Acoustic EP, very cool stuff.

That's awesome. I want that Album so bad, Except i prefer the Joey Cape side, as Lagwagon are one of my alltime favourite bands. I've been digging on my downloaded songs off that.

I've also been really diggin Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker

Brilliant.

[Portugal The Man]

I try to check out as many of the bands that I have not already heard posted on here. I got some songs by The Icarus Line and I can't say much more then WOW!!!

[moderaterock222]

I've also been really diggin Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker

Brilliant.
Yeah, ive had it a while but ive only recently in the last few months been listening to it, its top quality stuff.

[Tapeworm]

Yeah, it's even better than I remember it being.

[OrbDragon]

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead

I've almost given up on alternative rock...until I heard this very interesting track called "Another Morning Stoner". Which of their albums should I buy? I'm leaning towards Source Tags & Codes...I'm downloading heaps of material. I need advice from you vet AYWKUBTTOD-junkies.

[Tapeworm]

Get Source Tags and Codes. It is absolutely brilliant.

[Tangy zizzle]

I've fallen in love with this band. Personally, I think they are the best alternative rock band (excluding QOTSA) around at the moment. Like Sonic Youth, they can make their instruements work for them and do what they want. They aren't super virtuoso's( they could be?) but they still manage to craft epic, spacey, hard rocking songs.

Truely awesome band.

Couldn't agree more. Go and get Source Tags and Codes right now, it is completely awesome. Actually, I haven't listened to that for a while. I shall have to listen to it soon.

[moderaterock222]

Source tags and codes is a really underrated album, it has a lot of energy...i have an urge to listen to it right now

[YDload]

Coheed and Cambria. The whole "Silent Earth" album is awesome, and my favorite song is probably "The Crowing." Check it out, if you haven't been bugged to listen to it already!

[AK47]

I finally found some Cows songs and by golly they ROCK.

[br3ad_man]

The Cows are so good. It takes so long to find their songs though.

[Ejp414]

Something about CocoRosie...

Tilly and the Wall: Saddle Creek (Well, actually "Team Love", but meh) band, really interesting hippy pop. This band even has a tap-dancer. It grows on you.

Mirah: Just a really amazing group all around, the vocals are extremely good and the music keeps you hooked, unlike some of the bland stuff we have to deal with these days.

Shannon Wright: Her music is kind of dark. You might like it, you might not. I can't ever predict the response I'm going to get when I let my friends in on this artist.

As you can probably tell, I've sort of had a craving for female vocals lately. About time... besides Azure Ray, Metric, and maybe a couple other exceptions, the last band I was listening to with a female singing was No Doubt, and that was back when they were still putting out decent music. :)

[Luxor]

I'm listening to Q And Not U...

*spooges*

[fugazijap]

iv'e been listening to elliot smith, Radiohead, The Casual Dots,Unwound,Rites Of spring , tortoise new cd "it's all around" really good.

[phobiaholic]

I've been hearing a lot of:
Muse
Bad Religion
Catch 22
Blue Oyster Cult
Streetlight Manifesto
& Atreyu/From Autumn to Ashes(i don't normally like metal-core/hardcore w/e it's called music but my friend just moved in and that's his style .. and F.A.T.A. is actually pretty cool

[Tapeworm]

I'm listening to Q And Not U...

*spooges*

I have been meaning to get some stuff by them. I got "Recreation Myth" and I thought it was pretty good, but I have heard amazing things about these guys. What would you recommend?

[Superpeer.is.a.faggot]

SUPER PEER IS A FAGGOT. He told Sting-ray to ban me coz i put a naughty pic in a thread. FVCK YOU SUPERPEER

[Luxor]

I have been meaning to get some stuff by them. I got "Recreation Myth" and I thought it was pretty good, but I have heard amazing things about these guys. What would you recommend?

Basically everything off the album No Kill No Beep Beep is awesome. Heres some songs:

Book Of Flags
No Kill No Beep Beep
A Line In The Sand
Fever Sleeves
Sleeping The Fever Code

I've actually never heard a Q And Not U song that I ddin't love.

[hafez]

i'm going back to Pearl Jam's "ten" album. other than that, i've been listening to the "mansbestfriend" album by sole

[Master Arkam Kannon]

ive been checking out Rush lately...

[OrbDragon]

I don't understand the fuss about Coheed...I don't find them all that impressive. Maybe I'm missing the point.

Nevertheless, I've been digging alot of Faith No More, Melvins, Trail Of Dead, At The Drive-In, Pixies and Mondo Generator lately...I'm into rocking hard these days instead of the artsy experimental stuff that usually dominates my eardrums.

I haven't been so much into rock music since my mid teens when I still listened to alot of Jane's Addiction, Tool, Death Cab For Cutie and Smashing Pumpkins records (although I've pretty much outgrown these bands since I became 18 or so).

[br3ad_man]

^^^
I never knew you were a Melvins fan! Good work!

With the Coheed thing, they seem like the Pixies...a great band, but terribly overrated

[YDload]

I don't understand the fuss about Coheed...I don't find them all that impressive. Maybe I'm missing the point.

Maybe you're listening to even better music, and there's just no room for them to shine in your playlist. If you paid attention to modern music trends on the radio and MTV, you'd see that Co&Ca have taken the poppy hooks of pop-punk and the whiny vocals and added amazing guitar mini-solos and drum fills. Imagine if you saw New Found Glory playing and all of a sudden their guitarist (one of them, anyway) started playing an amazing lead underneath the second chorus. That's about what it is, and also the voice. "A Favor House Atlantic" is the single that's on MTV, and that's all the higher Claudio's voice gets. Most of the time it's a bit more subdued, if you don't like that.

So, that's the point. "The fuss" is that I started getting into them and bumped all their threads in Alt/Indie, CD Reviews, and Pop-Punk forums. Also, their lyrics are very weird, but they have a point that will come out as soon as a comic book based on the story is printed. The chance to know for sure what a progressive band's lyrics mean is the cause of much fuss, let me tell you.

[br3ad_man]

I'm getting into Massive Attack. I've only heard one song, but I'm getting an album soon.

[Tangy zizzle]

Last couple of days it's been

The Brian Jonestown Massacre
Pilot To Gunner
Brainiac
Enon

They are all really good. Brainiac's probably my favourite out of that bunch, they are a very very good band.

[Tangy zizzle]

Calexico - Feast Of Wire has been declared Tangy Zizzle's Official Album of The Week

[el doctor]

I bought "El Cielo" from Dredg this week and I'm trying to get into it. Parts of it I find interesting, but for the most part it's rather mediocre and boring to me. :o

[pendrightehpedo]

I saw The Stands at Move 2004 when i went to see the Pixies and they were awesome. They sounded like a more indie version of Mars Volta, especially when they just jammed for about 15 minutes

[Tapeworm]

I just got:

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Lambchop - AWCMON/NOUCMON
Joey Cape/Tony Sly - Acoustic
Lost in Translation soundtrack

They are all outstanding albums. I have never heard anyone ANYWHERE talk about Lambchop, and they are an amazing amazing band. So good.

[Master Arkam Kannon]

Brainiac

They are all really good. Brainiac's probably my favourite out of that bunch, they are a very very good band.

i should have told you about these guys earlier, to me they sound as if the pixies went to mars and used alien technology to create melody and rythem unheard of in the earth's atmosphere...

songs one must get...

i am a cracked machine
kiss me you jacked up jerk
Meathook Manicure
this little piggy
go freaks go
nothing ever changes

[Calibretto13man]

I've always been checking out calibretto 13

Lately,

-Melvins
-Death Cab for Cutie
-Grand Funk Railroad
-The Whos Who

[hippu]

i was at the oxegen music festival- and saw these two bands for the fisrt time- life after modeling and giveamanakick,- they are fukin awesome. life after modeling are more alternative and giveamanakick are just two guys-playing heavy riffs an makin everyone go mental. you can check out some of their songs at their sites www.lifeaftermodelling.com and www.giveamanakick.com - really, check em out

[melack]

I have been diggin' Desaparecidos for a while...
And now i want to get into Bright eyes (i know im going back in time :p). Wich album do you recommend, or would say is the best from them?

[Little Man being Erased]

LIFTED or The Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground is awesome and the best Bright Eyes album to start with. It's one of my favourite albums of all-time. After that, Fevers and Mirrors is pretty bloody good as well.

[Tapeworm]

He's right, you know.

[melack]

Thanks you gyus very much, i guess i'll go with Keep your ear to the ground.

[Little Man being Erased]

Glad to help.

[violently_happy]

Has anyone here heard Keane?
http://www.keaneband.com/
Try Everybody's Changing

[violently_happy]

Has anyone here heard Keane?
http://www.keaneband.com/
Try Everybody's Changing

By the way, they dont have a guitar player. Its worth checking out.

[Luxor]

Lately I've been listening to a lot of:

Coheed & Cambria
Taken
Death Cab For Cutie
The Deviates
Spoon

[br3ad_man]

I quite like Keane, but I think they are getting too much hype. I like:

Everybody's Changing
Bedshaped

[Tapeworm]

I don't really like them much. If I want music with bass, drums and piano, I'll take Ben Folds Five.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Mint Chicks new EP Anti-Tiger is great, it's really crazy stuff. Much more experimental than the first.

[br3ad_man]

I don't really like them much. If I want music with bass, drums and piano, I'll take Ben Folds Five.

I prefer BFF too.

I'm on a Melvins kick at the moment...tomorrow I'm getting Houdini, w00t.

[Tapeworm]

The Mint Chicks new EP Anti-Tiger is great, it's really crazy stuff. Much more experimental than the first.

Woah! They have a new EP? I haven't even been able to get my hands on "Octagon x3" yet.

I'be been diggin' Beck's Mutations album and good 'ol Relationship of Command today.

[Jellyspoon]

Today on the stereo in my head I have been playing 'Everybodys gotta learn sometimes' by Beck, and also pondering how I can get that song without having to buy the whole 'Eternal sunshine...' soundtrack. (I cant d/l it either)

I have also decided to buy Oceanic by Isis, on the strength of 'Carry'

[Tomahawk]

The Mint Chicks new EP Anti-Tiger is great, it's really crazy stuff. Much more experimental than the first.

Oh **** they have a new EP? I must obtain this.

[LiVe_TrOpiCaL_fIsH]

I've been listening a lot to Bob Dylan, great lyrics and not to talk about the music.
Also Blind melon - Life ain't so ****ty (i would have puted this one on the top 10 alt songs, but got to late :D) and some latin american reggae groups (gondwana, Cultura profetica.)

And for the georgie fame fan: check out the song "yeah, yeah" or the one with van morrison and mose allison "one of this days"

[in a story told]

ive been listening to sunny day real estate - diary(great album), some american football, bright eyes - fevers and mirrors, alice in chains - jar of flies, and the cure - disintegration.

[br3ad_man]

I'm on a Melvins kick at the moment...tomorrow I'm getting Houdini, w00t.

Someone got it before me :(....

[Tangy zizzle]

A Tribe Called Quest.

I've known/liked them for a while but in the past couple of days I've rediscoverd them. An amazingly talented group.

[br3ad_man]

Good work...they were the first decent hip-hop artist that I liked.

[sink sink]

Nine Inch Nail's "Hurt". Not sure why... And I've been diggin' Circle Takes The Square. Crazy stuff.

[acousto77]

One band that is great to listen to is The Stands with their album All Years Leaving.
They're kind of acoustic/folk/soft rock. I'm not really sure how to describe them but they're amazin'. I can't pick one song because they are all good.
Trust me!

[Tangy zizzle]

The Unicorns - Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? has been declared Tangy Zizzle's Official Album of The Week

[sliceoftheday]

Timmy and the Lords of Darkness...



Now that is hard-core!

[GibsonPyro]

Well, right now I have a no doubt song stuck in my head, dammit. But i've been digging The Pixies, and Sonic Youth right now.

[Ejp414]

Broken Social Scene
Iron & Wine

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm really into Cursive at the moment. I only just got The Ugly Organ and it is brilliant. Thanks to Tapeworm for turning me onto them. :thumb:

[surfwax_lp]

[B]DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE is a pretty kickass band guys
and if you like jam bands listen to stringcheese incident

[laula]

Yes, Death Cab For Cutie are what i'm listening to mostly, they're very good. And Jimmy Eat World. And The Killers.
Has anyone got Reubens album? If i did, i'm sure i'd be listening to that, but i have no money :upset:

[br3ad_man]

Well, right now I have a no doubt song stuck in my head, dammit. But i've been digging The Pixies, and Sonic Youth right now.

Whats wrong with No Doubt?

[Tapeworm]

I'm really into Cursive at the moment. I only just got The Ugly Organ and it is brilliant. Thanks to Tapeworm for turning me onto them. :thumb:

Worrrrrrrrrrrd up.

I have found a leaked version of the new The Faint album 'Wet From Birth'. It is amazing.

[shabutie]

really listenin to alot of Muse-absolution
the black keys
hawthorne heights
modest mouse
thursday
"terrible ted"
tesla
and of course RUSH

[a boondock saint]

Whats wrong with No Doubt?

I think it depends on the song. Some of their songs have been badly, badly overplayed, and those aren't fun to get into your head.

[toiletduqd]

Muse
Black Sabbath
Pantera

[Tapeworm]

I'm really getting into Muse at the moment, but I only have Absolution. What album of theirs should I get next? Origin of Symmetry?

Get Showbiz . It's my favourite Muse album by far. Origin of Symmetry Has some really good tracks, but it also has a few weaker ones, and Showbiz is a better album overall ... by far.

[ElectricUFO]

My fav. bands right now are... The Killer, love them, songs include Mr. Brightside, Somebody Told Me, Jenny was a friend of mine... Metric, yes i know their cd has been out for a bit but i just got into them, songs include Combat Baby, Succexy, Wet Blanket....

[captain_mauve]

Personally, The Mars Volta have been what i've been listenin to mostly. I bought De-Loused in the Comatorium and i LOVE it. Its a ****ing fantastc album, and i love the way it all just flows together. Jet and Franz Ferdinand have been up there too, and so have Turin Brakes, and reckon everyone should check out all of the following albums:

The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium
Jet - Get Born
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
Turin Brakes - Ether Song

[Nra4ever_17]

Bleach (the classic $600 Nirvana album, on which they didn't even get Cobain's name right)

[Tangy zizzle]

Bleach (the classic $600 Nirvana album, on which they didn't even get Cobain's name right)

Thanks for that...

Past couple of days I've checked out:

The Dance Disaster Movement, and they are cool. I'd rather listen to Gang of Four or !!!, but they are a decent enough band.

The Dismemberment Plan. Cool band. I like their approach to music, it's refreshing.

I've also rediscovered Fiery Furnaces. Their new one, Blueberry Boat is great. It's like Gallowsbird Bark (?) but improved on the weaker areas. Tighter songwriting, better craftsmanship and they've extended alot of the songs, a couple little rock-opera's in there. I definately recommend it.

[Doctor D.]

I've been into Snakefinger, Gang Of Four, Franz Ferdinand, Sonic Youth (I just bought the DVD yesterday and I love it), and Bad Brains is what is currently taking up my stereo's airwaves.

[Tangy zizzle]

Excellent, Nacho and I have rubbed off on you ;)

[Doctor D.]

Excellent, Nacho and I have rubbed off on you ;)

A little bit, yeah.....who am I kidding. Alot.

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm thinking of picking up Blueberry Boat. I've seen nothing but praise.

Anyways, what I've been listening to:

*I have Singles by the Smiths, so now I'm getting all the albums. I love Meat is Murder ("Headmaster Ritual" is their best song ever) but The Queen is Dead is disappointing. Aside from the title track, the only other good songs on the album are already on Singles, so there's no point.

*Laughing Stock by Talk Talk is amazing (props to nosferatu_man). It's similar to Sigur Ros as far as long, minimalist, orchestral songs, but with more emphasis on the vocals.

*Peace Love Death Metal by the Eagles of Death Metal is pretty good, but I can't figure out if it's legitimate or a guilty pleasure.

*I dug out my copy of Let it Be by the Replacements, loved it again, got Tim and Pleased to Meet Me, and loved them too. Everyone needs to check out the Replacements; Paul Westerberg was one of the most brilliant 80's alternative songwriters.

It's a very legit album. It's just not as serious as you expect it to be, thats why I love it. That's the appeal. It's good time music, it's not very challenging but thats what's great about it... To me anyway.

Oh yeah, definately check Blueberry Boat out, it is superb. Close to top album of the year for me.

[br3ad_man]

^^^
I think it's a great fun, feelgood album. I often listen to the cover of "Stuck In The Middle With You" in the car. My Mum loves it.

I've been into U2 lately after watching their DVD. I've also gotten back into the Smashing Pumpkins alot after seeing their videos DVD.

[pixiesfanyo]

I've been into the Dillinger Escape Plan lately..Because of their new cd..yay!

[Tapeworm]

I've been into Refused lately. And some old Hives.
