What I've Been Digging Lately

[Iai2]

The Replacements - Let It Be, thanks to Zappa.

Also, The Slim Shady EP. I'd forgotten what a great song Murder Murder is.

[Doctor D.]

I just went to the library and checked out :

De La Soul - 3 ft High And Rising
RZA As Bobby Digital - Didgital Bullet
Shellac - At Action park
Poster Children - New World Record
Fishbone - The Psychotic Freinds Netwerk
Tom Waits - Bone Machine

I'll be digging these for the week.

[ATM]

Wow your library is cool. Mine doesn't have anything nearly that good.

[Bukowski]

Been listenin' to some Jesus Lizard. God, they're good.

[Dog]

Elbow - Cast of Thousands

[Zappa]

I just downloaded a 1966 release entitled Black Monk Time by garage rock band The Monks. It's one of the coolest rock albums I've gotten in a long time. Imagine an even more primitive version of The Stooges with organ, and you have a very rough idea of what they're like.

Cool. Who's in your avatar? It looks like a young Rob Halford from Judas Priest.

[Zappa]

Gary Burger, lead singer of The Monks.

[Happymeal]

Woven Hand - Consider the Birds

That's such a good album. A shame it doesn't get enough recognition.

[Zappa]

Indian Summer and Nomeansno, thanks to IhateUsernames

NoMeansNo were incredible.

[BillCosby]

I just went to the library and checked out :

De La Soul - 3 ft High And Rising

Your library > My library


I've been diggin me some Ted Leo.
And I'm representing with a new avatar.

[br3ad_man]

I am also digging Ted Leo. I've had this album of his for the longest time and I'm only really getting into it now. I kick myself.

[Zappa]

Yeah, I seem to be pretty late on the uptake with these guys. Of course, I've never been that big on 60s rock after all.

[Little Man being Erased]

I got myself a few new albums yesterday.

Daft Punk - Homework
Air - Talkie Walkie
Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

Currently listening to NIN and so far it sounds pretty darn good.

[pixiesfanyo]

Jaga Jazzist

[Agitated_Barry]

The Dears - The Death Of All The Romance
Willy Mason - His album has some good songs like Oxygen and Hard Hand To Hold plus a song called Live It Up which isn't on the album
The Secret Machines - Nowhere Again
Louis XIV
Maximo Park

[asymm]

Of Montreal - "The Sunlandic Twins" LP
The LP came with a bonus 12" which had an opposite side with an etching on it... it's very very cool.

[Scott Herren]

I like the new Moby album.

[Iai2]

You're the first person I've heard say that.

[Luxor]

Jurassic 5 is the ****.

[Doctor D.]

Good lord The Poster Children are taking over my mind.

[Iai2]

Another day of downloading has meant I am now digging The Replacements, The Pogues, and Tori Amos.

[Luxor]

Ok, so I downloaded Phrenology by The Roots, and it's decent. But a lot of the tracks are slow and crappy. ex - "Sacrafice".

What I want to know is what album should I get next, that has more tracks similar to "Rock You", or "Water".

[Zappa]

Songs: Ohia

I get alternative & indie points.

[Iai2]

What I want to know is what album should I get next, that has more tracks similar to "Rock You", or "Water".
Honestly? Something that's not by The Roots.

[Luxor]

Honestly? Something that's not by The Roots.
Oh poo. :(

Those songs are great though, as well as the second last track.

[talk show host]

I'm listening to the new Dredg album for the second time now.

It reminds me a lot more of Leitmotif than El Cielo. I wasn't too keen the first time I heard it, but now i'm getting quite into it.

[pixiesfanyo]

The Comas
Afghan Whigs

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm listening to Daft Punk's Homework this fine mornin'.

[Bartender]

Another day of downloading has meant I am now digging The Replacements, The Pogues, and Tori Amos.

Which Pogues?


I've been listening to Devo, Talking Heads, and The Decembrists today. I've also been on an unsuccesful trek into town to look for anywhere that's even heard of Delotron 3030, but with no success. :(

I've found it in a couple of stores (including HMV), but it's consistently priced at £19.99 for some reason.

I'm digging nothing different to last time especially, so nothing to say there.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Which Pogues?

I don't think it matters, the Pogues are just fantastic. But I'm also interested.

Today:

The Clash
X-Japan's Art of Life
Essex Green
Various Irish groups

[Iai2]

Which Pogues?
Just downloaded If I Should Fall......

Don't suppose you saw Channel 4's Most X-Rated Musical Moments, did you? The Pogues were on it, for The Birmingham Six.

[incubliss]

yourcodenameis:milo

the album Ignoto is out, and i've got it. it's a very good album, and i think a step up from the mini album All Roads To Fault. it's very brooding, and quite epic. i'm especially digging the songs Fivefour, 2-Stone, The General, and Empty Feat.

11 out of the 12 songs are fecking ace, apart from Yesterdays Head, i wasn't to keen on that one.

9/10 from me, check it out brothers and sisters.

[br3ad_man]

You're the first person I've heard say that.

You obviously haven't heard me then.

Today I'm digging Talking Heads and The Strokes.

[Iai2]

Well, everyone I've heard talking about it has said the ambient bonus disc is great, but the main album sucks.

Today at work, I dug -

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Meat Loaf - Bat Out Of Hell
Johnny Cash - American IV
Tori Amos - Crucify EP
The Pogues - If I Should Fall From Grace With God

[Iai2]

Hey, I just opened a CD wallet my dad just gave me, and it has Basement Jaxx's greatest hits in it! Awesome.

[Electrocution]

I've been listening to The Pixies almost non-stop for the past few days. I also just started to listen to Stars' Set Yourself on Fire.

[asymm]

Architecture in Helsinki - In Case We Die
Wonderful, eccentric indie pop. I can see people looking for a slightly less spastic Fiery Furnaces find this as something worthwhile...

[ATM]

I've been listening to Devo, Talking Heads, and The Decembrists today. I've also been on an unsuccesful trek into town to look for anywhere that's even heard of Delotron 3030, but with no success. :(

I've got the album if you want it/

I've been digging Smashing Pumpkins and Sneaker Pimps today.

[llama1600]

Oh poo. :(

Those songs are great though, as well as the second last track.

really? i can't stand "rock you", but i love the rest of that cd, especially Seed 2.0, oh well

and Stars is excellent too

[Tomahawk]

Architecture in Helsinki - In Case We Die
Wonderful, eccentric indie pop. I can see people looking for a slightly less spastic Fiery Furnaces find this as something worthwhile...
They're a lot better than the Furnaces.

[Swami]

The Monks are cool, but comparing them (even slightly) to the Stooges is stooopid.


Eric Dolphy - Out to Lunch (overrated, but cool)
Crime - San Francisco is burning (POLICIA!!!!)

I finally bought Under Blackpool Lights, 'twas worth it.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Antony and the Johnsons - I Am a Bird Now

aaaah so good.

I still burst out laughing every time I hear his entrance on Rufus Wainwright's album. Dunno why.

[Interstate]

Today:

Elvis Costello
Bill Haley And The Comets
David Bowie
Talking Heads
Murder By Death
The Dears
George Benson

I've got to go to work in about an hour but I've mainly just been sitting around all day listening to music since I have no college today.

[Sonic Reducer]

Today:
Soundgarden
Nirvana
My Chemical Romance
Social Distortion

[Iai2]

The Cars - The Cars
Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral
L'Arc~En~Ciel - Ray

In addition to The Pogues and The Replacements, carried over from the last entry.

[Zappa]

This message is hidden because Swami is on your ignore list.

:wave:

[Iai2]

:lol:

[Well_Respected_Man]

Hang on to yourself.

Awesome tune, couldn't have said it better myself.

I've been listening to:
Izzy Stradlin
The Pogies
The Wildhearts
The Clash

[Iai2]

I'm really digging Sap and Jar Of Flies by Alice In Chains right now.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm diggin' Minus The Bear - Highly Refined Pirates now. Quite a great fun album.

[Zappa]

Today was rocked by:

The Poster Children
Agalloch
X-Ray Spex
Morphine

[Happymeal]

Agalloch

Are their other albums as good as or better than The Mantle?

[Zappa]

I am just listening to The Mantle for the first time now, but so far it doesn't match Pale Folklore for me.

[crazyGUITARnDRUMgal]

I'm diggin' Minus The Bear - Highly Refined Pirates now. Quite a great fun album.

such a good album.

Spoon - Kill the Moonlight

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, that's the first time I've actually listened to it all the way through after having it on my computer for about 6 months. I'm such a slackass.

[Wanker]

I've been listening to The Aeroplane Flies High b-sides by the Smashing Pumpkins today.

Well, tonight actually.

edit: :eek: *postcount*

[talk show host]

Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
Dismemberment Plan - Change

[Little Man being Erased]

I just finished listening to Bob Dylan's Time Out Of Mind for the first time, very good stuff. Maybe not up to the standard of his early work but great nonetheless.

[Zmev]

Just finished ...And the Circus leaves town, good record but I think I prefer Blues.

[Little Man being Erased]

Just finished ...And the Circus leaves town, good record but I think I prefer Blues.
I was not impressed by that album at all (...And the Circus), average at best. Good thing I only paid ten bucks for it.

[Master Arkam Kannon]

the new spoon is really good

[br3ad_man]

I'm loving Burnt By The Sun.

[Luxor]

the new spoon is really good
Not what I've been hearing...

[Tomahawk]

I'm loving New Order right now.

And I've been listening to exile on main street by the stones a lot lately. Also been listening to siamese dream by the smashing pumpkins.

[asymm]

the new spoon is really good
I agree... I've really been enjoying it as well

[Iai2]

Today at work.

Cat Power - Moon Pix
QOTSA - Lullabies To Paralyze
Tricky - Maxinquaye

[asymm]

today...

Archer Prewitt - "Three"
Jeff Mangum - "Live at Jittery Joe's"

[Little Man being Erased]

Murder Ballads and Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus. I guess you could say I'm pretty excited about seeing Nick Cave in a few days.

[Happymeal]

Today I listened to

Marduk - Plague Angel
Cryptopsy - None so Vile
Lovage - Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady by
Strung Out - An American Paradox
Saves the Day - Through Being Cool

[Iai]

Saves The Day did that piss-annoying At Your Funeral song, didn't they? In which case....

Cryptopsy - None so Vile
Saves the Day - Through Being Cool
k then.

[Smackers]

Murder Ballads and Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus. I guess you could say I'm pretty excited about seeing Nick Cave in a few days.

I'm pretty jealous of your getting to see Nick Cave in a few days.

[Happymeal]

Saves The Day did that piss-annoying At Your Funeral song, didn't they? In which case....

yeah, but it's not in that album. And I don't like that song either.

[Robert Crumb]

Quasimoto - The Further Adventures of Lord Quas

[YDload]

Source Tags and Codes is a good album to listen to while driving. Plenty of songs with that great "driving" beat to them.

[Zappa]

I'm always in absolute awe whenever I put on Masterpieces By Ellington.

Wow.

[Iai]

Today, so far, has been a Pinkerton day.

[asymm]

The Kills - No Wow
Archer Prewitt - Three
Xiu Xiu - La Foret

[AK47]

Beck - Sea Change
Comets on Fire - Blue Cathedral
David Bowie - Scary Monsters

[Bukowski]

I've been listening to the song "When you Sleep" by My Bloody Valentine. **** Yes! This song is amazing, i need to hear more from this band.

RECOMMEND ME!

1 - some good songs of theirs to download just now
2 - a good introductory album

[Iai]

1 - all of Loveless
2 - Loveless

[el doctor]

Not what I've been hearing...
It's... different. It reminds me of Wilco's "A Ghost Is Born" in the sense that both albums sound like "Well, we just made some incredible albums, so let's just kick back and lazily jam."

[br3ad_man]

Why don't you like Cryptopsy Iai?

Arg, the new Weezer is pretty lame overall.

[Happymeal]

Nation of Ulysses and Cap'n Jazz are CHAMPS.

[Well_Respected_Man]

Today I Dagged
Fugazi - In on The Kill Taker
This Heat - After The Heat
Circle Jerks - Group Sex
Graham Coxon - Kiss The Morning
Primal Scream - Screamdelia

[Bandaid]

Peaches - Teaches of Peaches, funny though not exactly musical

[Dave de Sylvia]

Today had Dylan written all over it in obnoxiously large font.

[Bukowski]

1 - all of Loveless
2 - Loveless

Loveless it is.

Been listening to some Aphex Twin today.

[Iai]

Why don't you like Cryptopsy Iai?
What makes you think I don't like them?

I've actually never heard them.

[Happymeal]

The Black Heart Procession are just what I need right now.

[Zappa]

My own stuff. Been recording and listening to older stuff that I have recorded.

[br3ad_man]

What makes you think I don't like them?

I've actually never heard them.

hehe. You should hear them, they're good.

[Iai]

They're up there on my wishlist, with None So Vile. About 8th or something.

[asymm]

Six Organs of Admittance - School of the Flower
^ Excellent, heartfelt, with some terrific psychedelic textures.

[Zappa]

Got a CD from my grandparents in the mail today. It's their new release, featuring a bunch of viola/piano sonatas.

All I listened to from it so far is the Dvorak, but it's good stuff. Perhaps I'm a bit biased.

[3rdplanet]

Anything Trip-Hoppy has been getting a large amount of play, especially Lamb and DJ Shadow.

[asymm]

Tonight's soundtrack will be:

Sufjan Steven - Illinois
Glad my state was done second...

[EightMilesHigh]

I've been listening to John Frusciante lately. Good songs:

The Mirror
Cut Out
Going Inside
Every Person

[carbonated_H2O]

Ive been listening to the Faint and Mudvayne's new album.

[Agitated_Barry]

The Subways
Maximo Park
The Killers - Hot Fuss (Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine and Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll)

[Iai]

Currently throwing down a bit of Bob Marley.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Oasis

[Little Man being Erased]

Over the weekend I dug:

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Lyre of Orpheus
The Faint - Danse Macabre
M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us
Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth
David Bowie - Low and Aladdin Sane

and

Ryan Adams - Cold Roses

Cold Roses is the best album of the year so far.

[talk show host]

i've listened to quite a lot today:

Bjork - Medulla
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
Oceansize - Efflouresce
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain

and now Dredg - El Cielo

[ATM]

Wow.

This Kraftwerk that Bartender uploaded for me is blowing my mind.

[Wanker]

I've been listening to Broken Social Scene's second album all day today.

[talk show host]

Wow.

This Kraftwerk that Bartender uploaded for me is blowing my mind.

which album?

[Iai]

Bartender did mention that he'd uploaded The Man-Machine, so probably that.

[talk show host]

Ah ok.

I have Trans-Europe Express on my computer but i've yet to listen to it. Any Kraftwerk at all in fact. I feel like such a criminal.

[Iai]

You should.

[Luxor]

I'm really liking the new QOTSA album. I just started getting into them recently. I have both Songs For The Deaf and Lullabies To Paralyze. Most people have been saying "LTP is good, but it's no SFTD".

Maybe it's because I'm new to them, but I think that Lullabies is a lot better.

[Little Man being Erased]

I think it's very good, and I'm sure in time it will grow on me more. But SFTD is definitely better. All in all LTP is a worthy follow-up.

[Bartender]

Bartender did mention that he'd uploaded The Man-Machine, so probably that.

Yeah, it was The Man-Machine. I played it to my sister a couple of months ago, and when all the initial beeping was done and we had "..we are the robots. WE ARE THE ROBOTS", she started laughing.

Where did I mention that I'd uploaded it?

[The NPC]

Elliott Sharp
Gun Club

[The NPC]

Gun Club :thumb:

Yep, I was flipping through my albums and saw Miami next to some of X albums and I just popped it in again for another listen. It's a classic album.

[CommieCanada]

i am on a new binge of Elliott Smith lately, and i am really groovin to the postal service

[br3ad_man]

Digging "Dark Side Of The Moon" right now.

[Smackers]

Television

[pixiesfanyo]

Digging "Dark Side Of The Moon" right now.

Yes, I just got "Live at Pompeii on DVD" and have been digging Pink Floyd alot lately as well.

[GlBSON]

Guitarporn (musiciansfiend.com), sonic youth, sigur ros, and teamsleep
yah, mutha------teamsleep b----!

[Iai]

Yeah, it was The Man-Machine. I played it to my sister a couple of months ago, and when all the initial beeping was done and we had "..we are the robots. WE ARE THE ROBOTS", she started laughing.

Where did I mention that I'd uploaded it?
In R&M, when Kraftwerk came up in the Velvet Underground thread.

I think.

[GlBSON]

wait a second... none of the bands I listed are indie.... but then again... no ones really listed many indie bands...

[Iai]

Sonic Youth, not alt/indie?

k

[Dave de Sylvia]

The latest Interpol album. It's been quite a while since an album really grabbed me on the first listen, I'm hooked.

[Master Arkam Kannon]

Ah ok.

I have Trans-Europe Express on my computer but i've yet to listen to it. Any Kraftwerk at all in fact. I feel like such a criminal.

dont waste another second, do now.

I've been listening to the new Spoon and Dredg and I'm really liking Mr Bungle's self titled.

[ATM]

According to my scrobbler:

Radiohead 95
2 Nine Inch Nails 48
3 Elliott Smith 39
4 Iron & Wine 21
5 System of a Down 18

[EonBlueApcolyps]

I just listened to Yes for the first time. Wow

[talk show host]

My housemate made me a compilation cd with lots of Kate Bush, the Walker Brothers and Bright Eyes on it so i'm digging that at the moment.

Kate Bush rocks my world.

[The Ashtray Girl]

Postal Service & Maximo Park today

[Iai]

Kate Bush rocks my world.
:).

[Luxor]

i am on a new binge of Elliott Smith lately, and i am really groovin to the postal service
omgcommie:eek:

[asymm]

Boogie Nights OST Vol. 1 & Vol. 2

I love this movie.

[The NPC]

Boogie Nights OST Vol. 1 & Vol. 2

I love this movie.

Interesting.

[Swami]

From Hell
The Barracudas
Beehive & Barracudas
The Stooges

[br3ad_man]

Rebelling against seemingly popular A&I opinion, I am listening to Cryptopsy. Other bands I have listened to today include The Strokes and Frank Zappa.

[freetheunfreeworld]

Chilln out listening to Tocotronic. A German band who everybody should listen too. everybody!!

[Tomahawk]

Been digging Nick Drake today, it's put me in a great mood.

Also been digging Picaresque, didn't give it much credit at first but now I'm thinking it's probably in my top 5 for the year so far.

[asymm]

Yesterday:
Spoon - Gimme Fiction
Ride - Nowhere

Today:
The National - Alligator
^ Amazing album. Such a completely refined sound. Emotive melodies filled out with the gorgeous baritone doesn't hurt either.

[Wanker]

Been listening to Broken Social Scene for the last two days.

[Robert Crumb]

Today so far:

Sun Ra - The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra, Vol. 1
Big Star - Radio City
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain

[Doctor D.]

Prince Paul - A Prince Among Thieves
MF Doom (Especially his mix of Public Enemy's "Bring The Noise")
Ugly Duckling - Taste The Secret

[Iai]

The Zombies - Oddessey & Oracle.

I could see this album surpassing Forever Changes as my favourite 60s album, I really could.

[Zappa]

That's good, because Forever Changes is one of the most hilariously bad things about the entire decade.

[Iai]

Pfft.

[The NPC]

Bean-Bean Plus Some Sugar by Kevin Jones

[Dave de Sylvia]

Got the last Exies CD yesterday, been listening to that today, aswell as Southgang and Elvis.

[YDload]

New-wave era Talk Talk. Not that bad at all, really.

is that when they came out with "It's My Life?"

[biografiend]

Talk Talk- Laughing Stock
A Silver Mount Zion-Horses in the Sky

[Interstate]

albums I'm loving recently:

James Blunt - Back To Bedlam (just listened to this for the first time today - very good)

Notorious BIG - Ready To Die
The Books - Lost And Safe
Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle

[NineBitFable]

Smashing Pumpkins Pisces Iscariot

First b-sides I've ever enjoyed as much as an actual album.

[Zmev]

Kraftwerk - Computer World

[Rockafella]

You Fail Me - Converge.

How come nobody ever told me how good these guys were?! ...oh wait.

[Happymeal]

Dr. Octagon - Dr. Octagonecologyst
Maudlin of the Well - Bath
Sparklehorse - Good Morning Spider

mmm.

[Luxor]

You Fail Me - Converge.

How come nobody ever told me how good these guys were?! ...oh wait.
Jane Doe is better than You Fail Me.

[Robert Crumb]

Dr. Octagon - Dr. Octagonecologyst
Sparklehorse - Good Morning Spider

mmm.

mmm indeed. :)

The rest of my day:

Brian Eno - Another Green World
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Bob Marley - Rebel Music

[biografiend]

Laughing Stock remains the most phenomenal-sounding album I've ever heard. I've never heard any other album that sounds so organic (I guess that's the word I'm looking for).

I'm just now getting into them, and they seem so.....fresh (possibly? i cant find the right word either) and for some reason remind me of the way rain smells; i have no idea why.

[Zappa]

Drive Like Jehu and Hot Snakes. I'm always amazed at how good these guys are, but I still neglect them thoroughly.

[AK47]

The Afghan Whigs - Gentlemen
Hot Snakes - Audit in Progress

[br3ad_man]

Drive Like Jehu and Hot Snakes. I'm always amazed at how good these guys are, but I still neglect them thoroughly.

I've gotta agree with that. I've been listening to "Yank Crime" a lot.

[Tomahawk]

Today was all about Primal Scream (finally I kind of understand the love for Screamadelica), and They Might Be Giants.

[Doctor D.]

Today was all about Primal Scream (finally I kind of understand the love for Screamadelica), and They Might Be Giants.

I've been digging on TMBG's self titled today. It's possibly my favorite from them.

[Interstate]

The new Mountain Goats album is also quite great.

:eek: I didn't even know he had a new one out.

Shows how much of a fan I am :upset:

Today I listened to:

Iron And Wine - Woman King EP
The Commodores - (some mixtape my dad made ages ago and I borrowed it to listen to it driving to college)
Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible
The Books - Lost And Safe
British Sea Power - The Decline Of British Sea Power

[Iai]

I'm still really heavily digging Odessey & Oracle.

Also, Chemical Brothers - Surrender, and Slint - Spiderland.

Right this second, though, I'm in a Beautiful South mood.

"Oh, Deborah, Alison, Phillipa, Sue...."

[Bartender]

I've been listening to Sarah Mclachlan - I Will Remember You (live) on repeat for a good forty minutes or so now, whilst reading reviews on RYM. It's a good way to not do an essay.

Other than that, I've lately been digging The Relatives - Say it With Vodka EP, Elvis Costello - This Year's Model (still), Boris - Feedbacker, and listening The Clash - London's Calling.

[libertine2020]

Anything Fall Out Boy right now. I'm a sucker for the catchy melodies.

[YDload]

I saw Fall Out Boy on Conan and I thought they were pretty rad. Excuse me, bad. The guitarist and bassist did that retarded twirling-in-circles thing, and the music was just pretty lame Milhouse. Ha ha, you see what I did there? Simpsons!

[asymm]

Sufjan Stevens - Illinois
John Wayne Gacy, Jr. is a brilliant melancholy song. I particularly have loved that track.

[YDload]

Oh man are they awful. They're from the suburbs around my area, and they've played the local teen hangouts many a time (the video for "Dead On Arrival" was shot at the Knights of Columbus near where I live and I have friends that claim to be in it). Terrible band, and I can't believe they hit it big.

I just can't believe it took this long for a band with a Simpsons reference in its name to make it big. I mean, that's apparently all you need, and you could make thousands of different combinations too.

[The NPC]

The Feelies, ah good times.

[Dave de Sylvia]

They can't possibly be the first ones. I can't think of any others though.

I'm sure there's more, check the pop-punk forum. Or just don't, might be safer.

Anyway...

Today, hair metal is in, as is James Brown.

[UltimaTap]

Beastie Boys- Hello Nasty

and right now I'm listening to Do Make Say Think

[Wanker]

and right now I'm listening to Do Make Say Think

:wave:


I've been listening to BSS and The Arcade Fire along with some live Radiohead recently.

[YDload]

I've decided that Every Time I Die is the only good band to have such a terrible and cliched name. Don't get them confused with similar-named bands because those ones probably suck!

[Happymeal]

I've decided that Every Time I Die is the only good band to have such a terrible and cliched name. Don't get them confused with similar-named bands because those ones probably suck!

Their new stuff is a bit questionable though, from what I've heard.

Antony and the Johnsons - I am a Bird Now

I've gathered a lot of good things about it too.

Just got Gorguts - Obscura awhile ago, I think I'll listen to it now. That and Ken Nordine's Wink. I'm quite amused by it.

[Luxor]

Beastie Boys- Hello Nasty

and right now I'm listening to Do Make Say Think
My Hello Nasty album was stolen. :mad:

It's their best record, too. Why couldn't they have stolen one of their crappier albums.

[YDload]

Their new stuff is a bit questionable though, from what I've heard.

well to be honest the only song i've heard that i really like is "i've been gone a long time" but it's pretty good. everyone else who tried to combine punk and metal is pretty crappy at it but that song works.

[Bandaid]

They can't possibly be the first ones. I can't think of any others though.

There's a band who were briefly succesful, and moderately so now, here in Australia called Jebediah, named after Jebediah Simpson

[Smackers]

Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses. These guys are great.

[br3ad_man]

My Hello Nasty album was stolen. :mad:

It's their best record, too. Why couldn't they have stolen one of their crappier albums.

I got Hello Nasty for $5. That was cool.

[Bandaid]

Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses. These guys are great.

you are correct :)

[Luxor]

I got Hello Nasty for $5. That was cool.
:eek:

What a steal! I had to pay $25.

[The NPC]

My Hello Nasty album was stolen. :mad:

No way, Ill Communication is the ace album Sir.

[Deathapalooza04]

No way, Ill Communication is the ace album Sir.

I've always thought Check Your Head was the best.

Anyways, been listening to Rocket from the Crypt and Drive Like Jehu alot. Hot Snakes too. Oh and The Evens. Some classical, Steven Reich and Philip Glass, to balance things out.

[Iai]

I say Paul's Boutique.

[trev913]

Right now, I've got a burnt CD in my CD player, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd's "Ledbetter Heights" sitting next to me. As for something I've been solidily listening to, I'd say either

Muse - Origin of Symmetry
Pantera - The Great Southern Trendkill

Though, Bach has lately graced my CD player, as well as Mozart. I also recently got my friend to hook me up with some Elgar and Tchaikovsky, as I'm thinking about getting into the Romantic epoch of classical music.

[br3ad_man]

:eek:

What a steal! I had to pay $25.

:eek: ouch!

I'm listening to Isis, Cult of Luna and The Dismemberment Plan

[Luxor]

Whoa, everyone's favourite album is different. Yay for different tastes!

I'm listening to The Dismemberment Plan as well.

[Zappa]

Life.

[asymm]

Sam Prekop - Who's Your New Professor?

[br3ad_man]

Life.

That's always good to hear.

[br3ad_man]

Wow, Nacho likes Converge.

[br3ad_man]

I didn't know that. Converge are the bomb anyway.

[Happymeal]

Today I'm listening to

Änglagård - Epilog
The Ponys - Laced with Romance
and some random Minus the Bear and Mew songs

[Iai]

There's a band who were briefly succesful, and moderately so now, here in Australia called Jebediah, named after Jebediah Simpson
Jebediah Springfield, you mean.

:simpsons101:

[Badmoon]

Calexico - Convict Pool

Not a song that I don't love on here.

[Robert Crumb]

I vaguely remember a band named Evergreen Terrace but I couldn't tell you what kind of music they played. Don't think I ever listened to 'em.

I'm digging Brazil today. The whole country. And The Further Adventures of Lord Quas. Album of the year so far.

[The NPC]

The Swans
DNA
Arto Lindsay

[Smackers]

ASVA
Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses

[3rdplanet]

Air have been the newest group I have been enjoying.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Antony & The Johnsons

[Iai]

And The Further Adventures of Lord Quas. Album of the year so far.
That's the new Madlib project, right? What's it like?

[br3ad_man]

Slint
The Unicorns
Behemoth
Cult of Luna

[Robert Crumb]

That's the new Madlib project, right? What's it like?

Yep. It's enjoyably spastic, the kind of album I like to listen to on headphones while I go for a walk. I'm thinking a review is in order.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I've been trying, and specacularly failing, to sing Marvin Gaye's version of I Heard It Through The Grapevine for about an hour now. What a delivery.

[Bandaid]

Jebediah Springfield, you mean.

:simpsons101:

oh man, i truely truely have slipped.... stupid internet

[Luxor]

The Dismemberment Plan
The Unicorns
Radiohead
Queens Of The Stone Age
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Is what I've been digging lately.

[br3ad_man]

That's a top list sir.

[Swami]

Mastodon
ZZ Top
Ponys
David Kilgour

Saw Nick Cave a couple days ago, 'twas bahrilliant.

[asymm]

the diggage:

Nick Drake - Bryter Layter

[Tomahawk]

Digging the Cure. Pornography is SUCH a good album, I never give it enough credit, but it's brilliant. I mean, it's overwhelming and depressing and angry, but in an awesome way.

[pixiesfanyo]

Comets on Fire
and
Six Organs of Admittance

[Tomahawk]

And now I'm digging X because I just remembered that they are bone meltingly fantastic and I love them.

[Zappa]

I was disappointed by Rocket From the Crypt. Darn.

[Zappa]

I've just been really digging on Hot Snakes, and that in turn got me listening to Drive Like Jehu more, and also piqued my interest in Rocket From The Crypt. So I downloaded some.

[Iai]

I never liked Rocket From The Crypt.

[Sleeper]

Iced Earth
Sonic Youth
Radiohead

[asymm]

The Standard - Wire Post to Wire

... but I plan on heading out to the record store in a lil bit so you can expect something new this afternoon.

[Zappa]

I got this unbelievable recording of Gershwin stuff called "Earl Wild Plays His Transcriptions of Gershwin." My mom was listening to it in the shower this morning, and when she came out she was all "did I turn you on to this album yet?" And told me a story about how my grandpa knew the pianist at Juilliard and how he was totally insane and spent entire days in the practice room leaving only to go pee. It should hopefully be on the YouSendIt thread soon.

[JonM]

M.I.A./Diplo - Piracy Funds Terrorism Vol.1

This mixtape makes you want to shake your booty. Her LP is a masterpiece, but this rare gem is a vital recording of a different sort.

[Phunphone]

ı've recently bought;

Joshua Redman - Wish
Pat Metheny Group - Speaking of Now
Nils Petter Molvaer - Khmer
Pierre Boulez - Domaines

I'm going through a jazz/classical phase. Berg, Debussy, Messiaen and Boulez are constantly on repeat, so is a lot of jazz, mostly guitar based.

Also, I'm addicted to The Smashing Pumpkins. They grew on me a lot.

[Zappa]

I'm giving Perverted Monks by Afu-Ra my first listen now. He's a good rapper.

[Little Man being Erased]

I heard "Hope There's Someone" by Antony & The Johnsons the other day and quite frankly, I wasn't very impressed at all. Am I missing the point or did I hear a bad song?

[Little Man being Erased]

Saw Nick Cave a couple days ago, 'twas bahrilliant.
Ahhhh, me too. What a great experience.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I heard "Hope There's Someone" by Antony & The Johnsons the other day and quite frankly, I wasn't very impressed at all. Am I missing the point or did I hear a bad song?

He's an extremely acquired taste.

To hear the best of him, listen to Old Whore's Diet on Rufus Wainwright's latest album. He has an amazing, unique, voice.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, his voice is definitely unique. I think that may be where I had some issues. I'll give him another listen.

[Paranoidd]

Porcupine Tree...uh...all of it. I'm burning the discography to listen to at work tomorrow.

[TheSeeker625]

Two words: Beck-Guero

[Dave de Sylvia]

I love Antony's voice, but everyone already knows that.

I didn't, but I'll remember it for the future.

Rufus Wainwright has dominated today.

[Tomahawk]

American Music Club - Everclear

This is such a great, great album.
Yes! It is! One of the best albums of the 90s. They deserve a lot more love than they get.

[asymm]

Yes! It is! One of the best albums of the 90s. They deserve a lot more love than they get.
Most definitely. American Music Club is brilliant.

Actually my record store pickups were in a similar vein as AMC...

Mark Kozelek - Rock 'N' Roll Singer ($0.99 Used!)
Early Day Miners - All Harm Ends Here

[br3ad_man]

I'm trying to get that American Music Club album. I can't find it anywhere. I've been looking since Tomahawk went all "Iai with Afghan Whigs".

[Tomahawk]

haha! Yeah well it deserves my fanboyness. I'll upload it in the yousendit thread.

[br3ad_man]

Thank you very much.

[pixiesfanyo]

Afghan Whigs are hot secks.

'Specially Be Sweet.

[Interstate]

Today I've been digging:

The Unicorns - Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? (totally obsessed with this album since someone uploaded in on the YSI thread a few days ago - whoever that was - thankyou :thumb: )

The Books - Lost And Safe (same as above)
Bob Marley - some Bob Marley tribute compilation tape that my dad recorded off the radio ages ago
Luther Vandross - Songs
Idlewild - Captain EP
Iron And Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days
Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Let Love In (gave it another chance after dismissing Cave & The Seeds due to not properly listening to 'The Best Of' - and now love it)

I've listened to quite alot today.

[Iai]

I heard Slowdive - Souvlaki for the first time today.

I also gave The Avalanches another chance. Still not digging their album as much as I want to.

[talk show host]

Ted Leo & the Pharmacists
Lamb
Deftones

[3rdplanet]

Lamb kick serious ***.

I have been listening to New Wet Kojak and just got my grimy hands on some DJ Krush which will probably need to be played a few times in the near future.

[pixiesfanyo]

Black Mountain
M. Ward

[Zappa]

M. Sord is so much cooler than M. Ward. Even though I've never heard M. Ward, and M. Sord is just some crazy drummer from Kalamazoo that has come up here to play a couple times.

[Happymeal]

Strung Out - An American Paradox
Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose
The Vandals - Hitler Bad, Vandals Good
Trail of Dead - Worlds Apart

[*HopeFloAts*]

They are of course not new by the way

I've been checking out The Flaming Lips lately.

I don't know to much by them but here are my favorite songs, out of what I do know.

Turn it on
She Don't use Jelly
Plastic Jesus
Pilot can at the Queer of God
Fight Test
Do you Relise?

Mostly from Transmissions from the Satellite Heart
I saw them at Lollapalooza in...94?? I feel old

[Luxor]

Strung Out - An American Paradox
Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose
The Vandals - Hitler Bad, Vandals Good
Trail of Dead - Worlds Apart
That's the first list of bands you've ever posted in which I know every single band. >_<

[Happymeal]

Hehe:) I'm sorta on a pop-punk binge right now.

[Zappa]

Bleu cheese.

[Well_Respected_Man]

Daggage as Follows:
Matching Mole - Self Titled
Blur - Parklife
Black Eyes - Cough
The Pop Group - Self Titled

[Well_Respected_Man]

I dig them, they're a Post Punk band with a Dub producer and influences. "They lose rythmn just as easily as they find it." - thanks allmusic.

[Little Man being Erased]

Still the same stuff:

Ryan Adams - Cold Roses
David Bowie - Low
Pinback - Summer In Abaddon
The Faint - Wet From Birth
