What I've Been Digging Lately

[Bukowski]

MC5 - Kick Out The Jams


Ditto. Also:

Arab on Radar - Stolen Singles
Dag Nasty - Can I Say

[Dave de Sylvia]

T-Model Ford - Pee Wee Get My Gun

I think this man is going to kill me.
Not if you get his gun.

SOAD - Hypnotize

Odd album. Soldier Side and Vicinity Of Obscenity might just be their best 2 songs ever, but then there's something as truly shameful as Lonely Day. I guess it's a 3.5 overall. Not as good as Mezmerize.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yeah I like Hypnotize too (http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?reviewid=4350&genreid=7)

Please Please Please, Let Me Get What I Want might be the most stunning Smiths song of them all. Might be.

Also listened to Minutemen - Buzz Or Howl... and will be listening to B Walker - Letters when I stop repeating this track.

[EightMilesHigh]

MC5 - Kick Out The Jams


I love that spoken intro at the beginning at Motor City Is Burning.


I'm digging Black Sabbath's Master Of Reality right now.

SOAD - Hypnotize

Odd album. Soldier Side and Vicinity Of Obscenity might just be their best 2 songs ever, but then there's something as truly shameful as Lonely Day. I guess it's a 3.5 overall. Not as good as Mezmerize.

Yeah, I was thinking that as well. It's weird because everyone (even the band members) said that this half of the double-album is their better one. Oh well, I'm sure it will grow on me. The lyrics in Lonely Day sure are cheesy though, but I could never take a band like SOAD seriously when they are so ****ing goofy all the time. Aww, look at the widdle kids talkin' politics! Hee hee, now do the one about the pogo stick :)

[pixiesfanyo]

QoTSA - Over the Years and Through the Woods

[br3ad_man]

So it's good?

[Little Man being Erased]

QoTSA - Over the Years and Through the Woods
Is it good? All the reviews I've read have been quite positive.

[br3ad_man]

Hey Little Man, do you reckon I should review Tapey's cd? What should I say about acquring a copy?

[pixiesfanyo]

Is it good? All the reviews I've read have been quite positive.

It's an hour and forty minute show.

the CD is kind of lame, but it's worth the cash.

it was 12 bucks for me.

you get to see Nick's **** too.

[Little Man being Erased]

Hey Little Man, do you reckon I should review Tapey's cd? What should I say about acquring a copy?
Yeah, do it. Ummmm, acquiring a copy... I guess people could download it from the thread in this forum. It's uploaded with megaupload so I think that will last for quite a while. Or I guess you could put the link in your review.

That sounds great. Especially if it's cheap, which I doubt it will be here.

Hey am I the only one here who likes 16 Horsepower? Because what a good band.
I have their live album Hoarse. It's pretty good, and it's got a few great covers; Fire Spirit(The Gun Club), Day Of The Lords(Joy Division) and Bad Moon Rising(Creedence Clearwater Revival). It makes me really want to see them live. What do you recommend from them?

[EightMilesHigh]

I need to get Paul's Boutique. Licensed To Ill is stupid but stupidly good fun.

That's one of the reason I like Licensed To Ill, it's a bunch of dumb fratboys having fun, drinking beer and chasing teh poon.

I've been meaning to check out Ill Communication for a while, because I love Sabotage.

[Little Man being Erased]

mmmmm, "Sabotage" is great. Awesome film clip too.

I've been hearing good things about this band and album. Who do they sound like? Is the album worth checking out?

[Tangy zizzle]

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

They'd fit your style, I believe.

Meh, from what I've heard about them, they're all wah wah and chug chug and woooaaahhhh. Like a metal Mars Volta? I'm over that prog deal man, so yeah.

But knowing me, I'll get their album, listen to it, love it and just pretend like it's crap.

[Little Man being Erased]

Eels - Electro-Shock Blues
Radiohead - Hail to the Thief

You know you love The Goo Goo Dolls.

I just remember you in a Circle Takes the Square review I think, and also you like that whole stoner scene. And Gospel is kind of a blend of the two genres.

So, anything ill?

[The NPC]

Nas - Illmatic
Sufjan Stevens - Illinoise

You guys and Stfu Stevens, it's comical.

[asymm]

I've been hearing good things about this band and album. Who do they sound like? Is the album worth checking out?
Think a mash of Tindersticks-baritone & Interpol's atmosphere. It's fantastic stuff, definitely worth checking out. Here are a few links to give it a listen.

[The NPC]

Brilliant album. Second best of the year, even if you uneducateds don't think so.

Nothing Stfu does is brilliant. You fan boys, oi.

[asymm]

You guys and Stfu Stevens, it's comical.
What don't you like about 'Stfu' Stevens?

[Dog]

Sackcloth 'n' Ashes is really solid. Secret South is better-written I guess, but I prefer to listen to the former.
Thanks, I got a hold of Sackcloth 'n' Ashes and I'm digging it. Also:

K'naan - The Dusty Foot Philosopher; I'm starting to think that this is my favorite release of the year thus far, but I don't wanna speak too soon.

[The NPC]

What don't you like about 'Stfu' Stevens?

Everything about his music sucks nards.

I've seen him live and it was terrrible; however, it was fun heckling him.

[asymm]

For someone with such strong opinions, you don't ever say much to support them.

[The NPC]

For someone with such strong opinions, you don't ever say much to support them.

That's more than enough.

I don't need to write an essay to say that his music is terrible. It's just terrible. When I listen to it, it makes me want vomit. It makes me wish whoever had spawned him hadn't had sex that day. It makes me loose complete faith in the future of music. I can't stand the fan boys that continually jizz over this moron. It just doesn't make sense.

If I wanted to write a review of his album or his music I would, but I don't have the time nor am I going to waste more time on this site to do so.

I would say a 'to each his own' approach would be more beneficial when you attempt to justify things in this way.

[Robert Crumb]

K'naan - The Dusty Foot Philosopher; I'm starting to think that this is my favorite release of the year thus far, but I don't wanna speak too soon.

What's it like? I might have to check this out at some point.

[The NPC]

I would say a 'to each his own' approach would be more beneficial when you attempt to justify things in this way.

I don't. It sucks, wake up or clear his jizz from your eyes for being a good fanboy.

Yeah that's great and all but you're missing the main point, which is that the album rules.

Rules at sucking ***.

[asymm]

:) I'm not particularly a Sufjan Stevens fan to begin with.

Today:
Sonic Youth - Sister
Guided By Voices - The Pipe Dreams of Instant Prince Whippet [EP]

[morrissey]

And Joe fulfills his word of the day quota.

Guess which.

It makes no difference to me, you should be destroyed like the rest of them.

And Joe fulfills his word of the day quota.

Guess which.

Nards.

[Dog]

What's it like? I might have to check this out at some point.
He's got a fantastic flow, a high pitched voice(but not to the point of being annoying), and is accompanied with very good mix of African, old school-ish, and world beats. He's from Kenya, and a lot of the subject matter in his songs are about his home country. I've listened to it several times over the past couple of days and have yet to get tired of it. Highly recommended.

[Kyle]

I dug out Use Your Illusions 2 today, I love this album.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I dug out Use Your Illusions 2 today, I love this album.
Hey, same with me, UYI buddy B-)

Today I listened to:
Hatful of Hollow 17 times
UYI2 60000 times

But...

I've surpassed myself. I'm now listening to Lindsey Lohan's new album. Now I'll admit there's a line and it's been crossed. She ****ing sucks.

[morrissey]

She has a new album? I've never even heard mention of it.

Then again I did see this second-rate "Because of You" video on TV the other night. Is that on the album? (I don't know the title of the song just that it echoes every "my childhood sucked" songs I've ever heard)

[pixiesfanyo]

Brilliant album. Second best of the year, even if you uneducateds don't think so.

Meh. It's a good album.

But no one can deny it drags on way to long.

Half the songs are exactly the same, and the stupid interludes are pointless.

If the album was 40 minutes long it'd be brilliant.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Confessions of a Broken Heart? Yeah, it's the opening track. :|

I got it because Butch Walker wrote and produced a couple of the tracks. Luckily, it sounds like everything else he's ever produced, so I don't need to keep it :-D

[EightMilesHigh]

I'm really into Woody Guthrie. Musically, he was Bob Dylan's grandpappy. Old school folk.

[YDload]

I don't know much about Surf Jam Stevens but everyone says that "Casimir Pulaski Day" is the saddest song they've ever heard. I know that he's the patron saint of Poland, and I'm mostly Polish, and the song's about bone cancer, and... well, nothing in common with that. So I dunno.

[Little Man being Erased]

eeeeeeeeeewwww someone mentioned the D4. Dion (he guitarist) used to have a hot as girlfriend and when he broke up with her I saw him boozed as in town and i asked him about it. He frowned, told me to *ahem* "just shut up... and **** off", and then I followed him to a bar.

Awesome.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah that was me. Cool story man. He sounds like a cool guy.

[Tangy zizzle]

Nah it's not a cool story. He can;t speak properly, he has some stupid imimimpedement (see what I did with that?). It;s either that or he's absolutely legless everytime he leaves the house.

They're really the only thing I remember from my late middle school years (8th gradish).

[Interstate]

Over the past few days:

Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
Devendra Barnhart - The Black Babies EP
RATM - The Battle Of Los Angeles

I've mostly been sleeping on the train to and from work due to frickin exhaustion.

[br3ad_man]

I've decided that Red Sparowes' At the Soundless Dawn is the most likeable record in the world.

That's an odd decision.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'd go with the latter.

[Little Man being Erased]

I like it just as much, maybe more than Cold Roses, but I love pretty much everything he's done. There has been a couple of Ryan Adams threads in here not too long ago. I'll try and find one.

EDIT: Here we go:

Cold Roses is the best thing Ryan Adams has done since Heartbreaker. Jacksonville City Nights is not. Still good though.

Early tonight I was trying to listen to all of my Ryan Adams records in alphy order, only got through the first Cold Roses disc. Maybe tomorrow.

[Little Man being Erased]

yeah, I love the interview bits more than the songs on these sorts of dvd's usually. I like how they show images of Lanegan and Nick even though it's troy and co. playing on the actual tracks. It's also funny when Oliveri talks about putting his amp in the toilet.

I see, very interesting.

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - The Tyranny of Distance

These guys are great.

Duh.

Over my break, in the very long car ride to and from minnesota, we listened to:

Ween - white pepper
Mr. Bungle - California
Black Crowes
The unicorns - Who will cut our hair when we're gone?
California Guitar Trio
Frank Zappa - freak out
And other things that I cannot remember

What I personally listened to:

Against me!
Defiance, ohio
Pinback

LCD Soundsystem - LCD Soundsystem

The first track is pretty good. The rest is okay.

[Zappa]

I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.

[Aeaon]

I've been listening to the Killer - Hot Fuss. Good ****.

[Daniel!]

I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.

Pretty good is better than okay.

[Aeaon]

I should check out Jesus and Mary Chain.

[Scott Herren]

Herbie Hancock featuring Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan - "Don't Explain"

[Robert Crumb]

The Drifters and Dangerdoom. And Binary Star. The Binary Star album does not disappoint.

[Dog]

And Binary Star. The Binary Star album does not disappoint.
Which one? I have Masters Of The Universe. Solid.

Right now Sleater-Kinney's The Woods.

[Robert Crumb]

Which one? I have Masters Of The Universe. Solid.

That's the one. Very much solid.

[YDload]

Aerosmith - Toys In the Attic

Dude Aerosmith rules. This album is even better than Rocks, I think. But the production sucks.

Any Aerosmith album from before they were clean is pretty good, I would guess. I don't know about Draw the Line though, as it was pretty much the depths of their depravity if "Behind the Music" serves me correctly.

[JonM]

I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.
Have you read Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance? Every time someone talks about quality, it makes me think of that book.
Pretty good is better than okay.
That's what I was gonna say. I'd say "okay" is one step above completely neutral, and "pretty good" is about three.

[Bartender]

The Beta Band - The Three EPs

I'd forgotten how much I like this. Think I might like it even more than I used to, actually.

These guys were pretty good, I'll have to pick up an album by them sometime soon.

Glam metal in Alt/Indie, o noes! :eek:

(PS: this band is sorta like Minutemen but with the addition of a singer. He left and the rest is history :)).

[Zappa]

Just those tracks. I finally listened to them this weekend.

P.S. I love Neu! Their music is incredibly inspiring.

I wanna get more of their stuff. I actually think it's borderline brilliant. However, I only have their album Music For Egon Schiele. But it's incredible how they can use music as a form of Expressionism like Schiele did with his paintings.

Hugh Laurie?


Monks - Black Monk Time

I've had this for about four months now, and I still don't know what to make of it. I know I like it quite a lot, but I can't decide whether it's a really excellent record, or just a good record and a nice little curio from the 60s. Listening to it over the past couple of days I think I've been leaning more towards the former, though.

Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party

A good album. As reviews seem to take pleasure in pointing out, the drums can get annoyingly repetitive. Also, I think even the most inexperienced listener could tell you it's an 80s record. I don't really see why the drums have to be a problem, when the focus is so very strongly on the vocals, lyrics and horns (and then other instruments), that you only really notice the almost constant boom-tish-boom-tish when you listen for it. But I like it anyway, maybe due to a strong affinity for Danny Elfman's songwriting/vocals/etc.

[el doctor]

I wanna get more of their stuff. I actually think it's borderline brilliant. However, I only have their album Music For Egon Schiele. But it's incredible how they can use music as a form of Expressionism like Schiele did with his paintings.I was listening to The Sea and the Bells on the ferry the other day. Amazing experience.

Sleater-Kinney - One Beat
The Decemberists - Picaresque
Mark Lanegan - Bubblegum

Acid Bath - Paegen Terrorist Tactics
Elliot Smith - xo
Mastodon - Leviathan
Jesu - Heartache EP
Cult of Luna - The Beyond

songs:

Arlo Guthrie - Alice's Restaurant Massacre
Gil-Scott Heron - Whitey on the Moon

...and this song "four" by The Pink Mummies from myspace. They got the whole post-metal thing going. And it's going quite well. The production sucks, but hey, it's just a demo by an unknown band, so I can't complain about that too much.

[Robert Crumb]

Scott Walker. I finally found somwhere that had some of his stuff on import. What a fantastic voice.

Do you have Music For Egon Schiele? Perhaps we can make a trade? *wink wink*Why yes, I do. My upload speed is so slow though that whenever I send something, I really don't deserve anything in return.

I'm into The Afghan Whigs right now.

And Tom Waits (always a staple in my musical diet).

[Wanker]

Why yes, I do. My upload speed is so slow though that whenever I send something, I really don't deserve anything in return.

Ohhh, ok then. I'll find it elsewhere I guess. I've just been listening to that one album for the last 6 months or so and I wanted to hear more of their stuff because that one album is so promising.

Rachmaninoff - Op.36, Sonata No.2 in B-flat minor
