What I've Been Digging Lately

[Daniel!]

Good stuff there.

It's been a Ornette Coleman and Swell Maps night.

I'm still trying to get over how good Jah War is. I don't think I can.

[The NPC]

P.S. Pharoah Sanders has been playing games with my mind tonight too,

[Bartender]

Talking Heads - The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads
Melvins - Houdini
Alabama 3

[Spectrum]

GY!BE again. I'm listening to Lift Your Skinny Fists... again, and it still astounds me with its genius. Well, I only secured a copy a couple of days ago, but still, this is only the second time I've listened to it. Amazing.

[Iai]

The new Depeche Mode album is their best ever, for my money.

[Little Man being Erased]

Pixies - Doolittle
Lagwagon - Let's Talk About Feelings
The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow

[Interstate]

I haven't listened to much music the last few days. Been too busy reading on the way to work instead.

Midtown - Forget What You Know
The Dismemberment Plan - Emergency And I

[IntenselyGorgeous]

The Organ are great. from Vancouver

lead singer girl dated guy in Destroyer. The Organ have elements in their music that sound like Destroyer. Guy in Destroyer is also in AWESOME band Radio Berlin (on Action Driver).

Check out all three bands!

[Electrocution]

I just bought How Strange, Innocence, so hopefully I'll be diggin that.

[Wanker]

I just bought How Strange, Innocence, so hopefully I'll be diggin that.

/envious

I gotta pick that up soon.

Jeez, I feel like such a non-fanboy

[Electrocution]

It's ok, I'm counting on christmas to get the other two. I'll probably go for the vinyl cause I'm cool.

[Wanker]

I'll probably go for the vinyl cause I'm cool.


Oh man. If you get those two albums on vinyl, you'll get 100 scene points as opposed to the 25 I got for owning the CDs.

[Little Man being Erased]

Did they re-release How Strange, Innocence or something?

[Wanker]

Did they re-release How Strange, Innocence or something?

Yeah, a little while ago.

These MP3s just aren't cutting it anymore.

[Luxor]

It's pretty pricey, though. Which is unfortunate, yet expected.

[Little Man being Erased]

Cool. (not about the priceyness)

And yeah, I know what you mean.

I still need to get Those Who Tell the Truth... blah blah blah

[Luxor]

I don't own any Explosions albums. I can't afford $27 for one CD.

[Dog]

Yusef Lateef - Live At Pep's, Vol. 2

What a great album.

[Wanker]

I still need to get Those Who Tell the Truth... blah blah blah

That really made me laugh. It's probably one of the longest names to an album next to A Silver Mt. Zion's He Has Left Us Alone But Shafts Of Light Sometimes Grace The Corners Of Our Rooms.

I don't own any Explosions albums. I can't afford $27 for one CD.

:-\ Shipping rates on Amazon are only $2 for a cd, and How Strange, Innocence is only $10.99 new. It's actually the cheapest one out of the three LPs.

[Luxor]

So that's what, about $20 Canadian? I don't know the actual price of How Strange in the stores, but a friend told me it was expensive.

I know that the rest of their albums are atleast $24CDN each.

[Little Man being Erased]

How about, Right Now You're In The Best of Hands. And If Something Isn't Quite Right, Your Doctor Will Know In A Hurry by Bear vs. Shark.

[Dog]

I believe Fiona Apple holds the record for longest album name. I remember seeing it a long time ago in a Guinness Book Of World Records.

Edit: Yeah, it's really long:
When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks Like a King/What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight/And He'll Win the Whole Thing 'Fore He Enters the Ring/There's No Body To Batter When Your Mind is Your Might/So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand/And Remember That Depth is the Greatest of Heights/And If You Know Where You Stand, Then You Know Where to Land/And If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You'll Know That You're Right

[JonM]

It's such a good record.

[Little Man being Erased]

****.

[Wanker]

^^I'm pretty sure you had me beat.

So that's what, about $20 Canadian? I don't know the actual price of How Strange in the stores, but a friend told me it was expensive.

I'm sorry man, I didn't know it was that expensive in Canada.

I'm downloading Youth Are Getting Restless and Black Dots right now, so hopefully those will be good too.

[Anxious]

I'm downloading Youth Are Getting Restless and Black Dots right now, so hopefully those will be good too.
Youth Are Getting Restless is awesome, it was actually my first Bad Brains cd. The bass really stands out, and instead of a guitar solo in a few places, there are bass solos, Big Takeover being the best. And their reggae cover of a Beatles song.

Bass solos are always good. They play "Day Tripper" on the other live cd I have and its great.

[Tangy zizzle]

Nas
Hot Snakes

[Anxious]

They combine it with a cover of She's a Rainbow by the Rolling Stones to make a really long song. Its great.

Ryan Adams - Gold

[Bartender]

I like it. I've only had it a couple of days (and most of that time's been given over to other recent purchases), and I don't have I, Megaphone to compare it to, but it sounds pretty good so far. I just love her voice, though.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, I'm definitely interested to hear it.

[Little Man being Erased]

Jeff Buckley - Live at L'Olympia
Jeff Buckley - Songs to No One
M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us

I still don't really like that M83 album all that much. But I'm giving it another chance. It's probably about a 3/5 at the moment. "Don't Save Us From the Flames" is brilliant, but the rest of the album doesn't really measure up.

[Daniel!]

Catch 22 - Keasbey Nights

It's been a while since I've listened to this. It's still great.

[Zappa]

That album is also really awesome. You guys rock tonight.

[Happymeal]

I can't stop playing "If I Loved You" by Mr. Kirk. It's the most inspirational, romantic, sensual song I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

[Dave de Sylvia]

The new System of a Down one is pretty good if you're into that sort of thing.

[Wanker]

Not even "Car Crash Terror!" ?

Awesome song. Although I like Lower Your Eyelids... and Slight Night Shiver better.

But those are still the three best songs on the album.

[The NPC]

The new System of a Down one is pretty good if you're into that sort of thing.

Scott McCloud. What a pimp.

[br3ad_man]

"Teen Angst"?

[Anxious]

Magical.
Its more than magical. Its at a new level I call "Super Magical".

No, it's just magical.

No, it's just magical.
I would beg to differ.

I think the whole album is only slightly above meh except for that song, "Don't Save Us From The Flames" and "Car Chase Terror!".

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm listening to Go! Team, they are quite odd aren't they? It's like all these strange sounds played by a pop band. Good stuff.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah, they're pretty fun.

[Little Man being Erased]

I think the whole album is only slightly above meh except for that song, "Don't Save Us From The Flames" and "Car Chase Terror!".
Yeah, that's true. It's worth a listen if only for "Don't Save Us From The Flames."

I'm listening to I am a Bird Now. I friggin' love it.

Well all week I've been finding myself at the same friend's house. And all week she's been listening to avenged sevenfold more than anything else. I find it okay, but not really what I would listen to if I had a choice.

Also (because of the same friend) a bit of muse and phish.

[Interstate]

So far today:

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Stephen Malkmus - Face The Truth

[ClassicReplay]

If I am in an Indie mood which has been a lot lately because todays stars on the big Four Labels (The RIAA) all sound cookie cutter, I listen to Indie Artist Radio which is a web station. They play only Indie Music from artist such as:

Scott DeCarlo
Clarissa
Dog Men Poets
Vallejo
Pieces Of East
Hingary Lucy
Javier Mendoza
Larry Edoff
Felt Element
3 kisses
Four Star Riot
Jann Klose

Sleater-Kinney's All Hands On The Bad One was the soundtrack to my morning and, indeed, my afternoon.

I picked up some stuff at the library today but they're too far away for me to see.

Lee "Scratch" Perry - Panic In Babylon." If I was writing a Master's Thesis on "The Impact of Cannibus sativa on Human Musical Cognition," I would merely submit this album.

[Wanker]

Wilderness - Wilderness

That's some good stuff right there. I love the piano track at the end.

[Electrocution]

I like Wilderness. Let's speculate on whether they named themselves after the Joy Division song.

I'm listening to Outkast's Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik and it's pretty great.

[Robert Crumb]

If I was writing a Master's Thesis on "The Impact of Cannibus sativa on Human Musical Cognition," I would merely submit this album.

I would just submit Lee Perry. He's pretty short. I think I can fit him into one of those manilla folders.

Oh yeah, on topic:

The Clientele - Strange Geometry

and
I saw Gus Van Sant's movie Last Days. My friends didn't see much in it, but Van Sant's movies can really move me. They're glacial but they pay attention to the little and showcase their characters in such a unique, honest way. His reality is very close to the reality that we actually live in. This particular film was 'loosely based' on Kurt Cobain's last few days of life. His shuffling, strung out demise - a brutal sight.

What do you think of this?

It's intriguing. It is less accessible and more idiosyncratic than I had predicted. I don't LOVE it, but I think it's a very cleverly crafted and truly interesting set of songs.

[Wanker]

Explosions in the Sky - The Rescue (is this unreleased? What are some details on this?)

People on the mailing list for the entire series of albums that came out of Temporary Records got the album in the mail. There were only several hundred copies I think. I saw the cds going for $40 on ebay.

I've been diggin Laughing Stock by Talk Talk

I'd say I wear this one proudly, but I admit I do not like this band after giving them a fair shot.

[The Great Decay]

My mom bought me one of their cds when I got my first ever stereo.

[Zappa]

How could you possibly listen to 12 of their tunes, provided you dislike them, without exploding?

[morrissey]

That's a question for the ages.

[YDload]

Deep down, all girls have really bad taste in music.

then again, so do i. but that doesnt necessarily mean that i am a girl :(

[Little Man being Erased]

98 Degrees should never, ever be given a fair shot.

[Happymeal]

Lifetime
Grandaddy
Lovage

The latter two make my headaches go away.

[EightMilesHigh]

I'm really digging A Tribe Called Quest's The Low End Theory. I put off listening to it for a while out of sheer laziness, and I'm just now starting to listen to it. I'm stunned by how great some of the lyrics are, which is amazing because we all know rap sucks.

[Little Man being Erased]

Queens of the Stone Age - Lullabies to Paralyze
The Smiths - The Smiths

[Tangy zizzle]

Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come

I don't know how I've missed out on this for so long. Great album.

That actually made me laugh. You spout on about your underground emo and hardcore bands, but you don't own or know this album? **** son...

But anyway, awesome disc. Best punk album ever. Nuff said.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah.

Tangy, I've been listening to Johnny Cash all day. I think he will soon become one of my favourites.

[Tangy zizzle]

Good.

I love listening to him on Sundays. One, for the obvious reason, but also because his music allows you to think about other things but satill be affected.

[br3ad_man]

Do you think Folsom Prison is his best? So far I only have that, San Quentin, that one I told you about on MSN with his wife and one called A Believer Sings The Truth.

I like Folsom the most.

[Tangy zizzle]

Um San Quentin is probably his best, but it's not my favourite. I only have like 4 "classic" Cash albums. The rest are the American Recordings recirds and a best of.

Today, i've been diggin':

Last week:

1 Hüsker Dü 68

[Dog]

I downloaded K'naan's The Dusty Foot Philosopher due to JonM's whoring, and it's really good.

[Interstate]

Devendra Banhart - Cripple Crow - Still don't like him as much as I'd like to.
Jay Z - The Black Album
Anthony & The Johnsons - I Am A Bird Now - really starting to like this album.

[br3ad_man]

Man. Gospel. Freaking Gospel. This album is so awesome.

EDIT: But I don't hear any CTTS in it. I hear a little bit of City of Caterpillar though.

[JonM]

Yeah you did.

[el doctor]

Man. Gospel. Freaking Gospel. This album is so awesome.

EDIT: But I don't hear any CTTS in it. I hear a little bit of City of Caterpillar though.I'm glad this album seems to be gaining popularity, on internet forums at least. I find it to be a pretty enjoyable album, although "Golden Dawn" gets a bit tedious.

I'd say this is a good pick for people who like the Mars Volta, but want more metal and less quasi-prog-craziness.

What's this again? Tell me!

[Luxor]

Gospel <3

[Zesty Mordant]

Sunny Day Real Estate- Diary

I've had it for a few years but I never really gave it a chance until a few days ago and I've been listening to it ever since.

Also,
Nas- Illmatic
DEP- Miss Machine
Ween- Quebec (soooooo underrated!)

[el doctor]

What's this again? Tell me!
I'd send but my connection is poo. :o Just hit up soulseek for The Moon Is a Dead World. It's like prog meets punk meets an almost post-rock kind of structure. Or as all music puts it, it bridges the gap between Slint and King Crimson.

Me digging:
Kaada/Patton - Romances
Serena Maneesh - s/t
Joanna Newsom - The Milk-Eyed Mender

[Smackers]

Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto - Insen
Pineapple Thief - 10 Stories Down
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads (this is my favorite Christmas album)

[Luxor]

Gospel = Psychadelic-indie-hardcore. Or something along those lines.

[Bartender]

What's this again? Tell me!

There are some songs (four, I think, and apparently amongst the better ones on the album) available to play on their site. http://www.themoonisadeadworld.com, I think. Named after the album.

[JonM]

I've been listening to a lot of Alternative but only a little Indie.

I listened to an allmusic sample of "Yr Electric Surge is Sweet" and now I'm hooked. This band sounds awesome!

Thanks for the link Bartender. This is definitely a band I have to dig into. They're like The Fall of Troy with less whining and more \m/

[Little Man being Erased]

Nah man, you're crazy, indie is where it's at.

Patti Smith - Horses [30th Anniversary Legacy Edition]
K'naan - The Dusty Foot Philosopher

[EightMilesHigh]

Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life


I loooooooove this album. I have to say this.

[JonM]

Dead Meadow - Shivering King and Others

Eva Cassidy - Songbird
Taj Mahal / Toumani Diabate - Kulanjan
K'naan - The Dusty Foot Philospher

Don't ever pass up the chance of seeing K'naan live. It's divine.

[Dog]

Eva Cassidy - Songbird
She had such a great voice. Very nice album.

[TalkingHead]

She had such a great voice. Very nice album.

I downloaded Wade In The Water by complete accident and fell in love. Then went out and got Songbird. Which cd should I pick up next?

[robot]

The Juan Maclean - Less Than Human

[Happymeal]

Dead Meadow - Shivering King and Others
Animal Collective - Feels

Good call.

[Dog]

Tangy you should check out Gospel if you haven't already.

They'd fit your style, I believe.

[JonM]

Don't ever pass up the chance of seeing K'naan live. It's divine.
I'm going next week.

My little brother saw the tour in Atlanta last week and met K'naan. He just came out in the crowd after his set, my bro was right up front, he said "What's up," and K'naan said "What's up, brotha?" and gave my little brother a pound infront of everyone. That's how my brother tells the story, anyway.
