What I've Been Digging Lately

[br3ad_man]

Maudlin of the Well - Bath


Yesterday, I bought some cds and I had no intention of buying any of them.

NWA - Straight Outta Compton
The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
The Icarus Line - Penance Soiree
New Order - Substance

[ATM]

The Drones - Here Come the Lies
Mudhoney - Superfuzz Bigmuff (soooo good)

[Daniel!]

Lots and lots of The Big Boys. The Fat Elvis in particular. "Funk Off" and "We Got Soul" are two of the most fun songs ever.

[Bukowski]

7 Seconds - Walk Together, Rock Together
7 Seconds - Old School
Really Red - Teaching You The Fear
A Tribe Called Quest - Low End Theory
The Pop Group - Y

Lots and lots of The Big Boys. The Fat Elvis in particular. "Funk Off" and "We Got Soul" are two of the most fun songs ever.

I'm glad you like them, they're amazing. Funk off is possibly the funkiest song ever. Nice avatar, btw :thumb:

If you like them, you'll probably like Really Red too.

[Daniel!]

I'll check them out.

[Happymeal]

Today I bought

The Make Up - I Want Some and
Prince Paul - A Prince Among Thieves

I haven't listened to the whole of either, but right now I want to give them a pat on the bum if they were really attractive girls.

I also listened to Dane Cook - Retaliation
*super immature mode*

[Zebra]

Sun Ra - Space is the Place

Possibly the most overated swing/jazz album of all time. The 21 minute title track blows me away every single time that I hear it.

[Luxor]

Hot Cross - Fair Trades And Farewells
Hot Cross - Cryonics
Hot Cross - A New Set Of Lungs

[Daniel!]

The Holy Modal Rounders - The Moray Eels Eat The Holy Modal Rounders

Different than they're earlier stuff, but still enjoyable. The Bird Song is pretty awsome.

[Zappa]

Johnny Cash - With His Hot and Blue Guitar
Patti Smith - Horses

[Dave de Sylvia]

I took a break from listening to the same three Guns N' Roses songs to listen to the new Butch Walker song about 20 times. Now I'm listening to the Prodigy.

[br3ad_man]

I've been listening to both Kayo Dot albums and New Order's Substance that I bought yesterday. Substance is damn good, do I need anything else from New Order?

Hot Cross - Fair Trades And Farewells
Hot Cross - Cryonics
Hot Cross - A New Set Of Lungs

Are you bored yet?

[Luxor]

I got bored halfway through A New Set Of Lungs

That one's not as good as the others

[pixiesfanyo]

lies.

I'm wasting away to Ambient 2

[biografiend]

Today (and pretty much lately):

Magazine
the Slits - Return of the Giant Slits
Sonic Youth - Sister
A sweet 60's female pop mix featuring Maxine Darren (!!!!!!!!!!)
Yes - Fragile

Heart of the Sunrise is by far the coolest Yes song EVER.

I agree. It's really hard to play on bass but I think I can get the hang of it.

I get bored halfway through Cryonics. Hot Cross are cool for a while but then I get really bored. I like City of Caterpillar, Off Minor, CTTS, Love Like...Electrocution, Saetia, pg. 99 and Trohpy Scars (if they count) better.

[OrbDragon]

In Orbs Dighouse:

Spoon - Gimme Fiction

Just a wonderful album, just very enjoyable without being overly mindblowing. The songs are catchy to the extent that instead of having them individually in your head, you find yourself replaying the entire album in your head after listening to it.

Air - Talkie Walkie

Perfect livingroom music. This album is just fun to listen to. The music is so creative in it's simplicity, yet it's extremely accessible to the casual ear.

Annie - Anniemal

Cheap-*** Norwegian bubblegum pop. Badly pronounced english sung by this cute girly voice. I like this! But it reminds me I'm such a tool. My best excuse: the music chose me, not the other way around.\


Catchy music is my thing today.

[sketchyjoe]

Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
Bob Dylan - No Direction Home
Ted Leo - Tell Balgeary, Balgury is dead
More Pogues
The Decemberists - Picaresque

[ATM]

Mercury Rev - The Dark Is Rising

[EightMilesHigh]

Today I'm rocking out to

Brian Eno - Ambient 1: Music For Airports
Kraftwerk - Autobahn
ZZ Top - Tres Hombres :cool:

I took a break from listening to the same three Guns N' Roses songs to listen to the new Butch Walker song about 20 times. Now I'm listening to the Prodigy.

Good to see you're getting variety in your musical diet.

[ATM]

Brian Eno makes me zZzZzZz

[pixiesfanyo]

Brian Eno makes me zZzZzZz

Is that good or bad?

[ATM]

It's bad if I were to put it on and try and study or something.

[Luxor]

Brian Eno makes me zZzZzZz
Aint that the tr00f

[Bukowski]

Big Black + Butthole Surfers

[ATM]

Big Black + Butthole Surfers

Heh nice, I just rescently got Songs About Fu*king and Locust Abortion Technician and they are both ace.

[Sleeper]

Tortoise-Standards
88 Fingers Louie-Back on the Streets
The Bouncing Souls-Anchors Aweigh

[pixiesfanyo]

elliott.

of the smith

[Bukowski]

Heh nice, I just rescently got Songs About Fu*king and Locust Abortion Technician and they are both ace.

Good going, man. get Atomizer by Big Black too, it's better than SAF.

[Little Man being Erased]

Is that the new one?
Yeah. I see you have Here Come the Lies, so you should probably get the new one. It's really great.

EDIT: Wait Long by the River... is 'the new one' that came out in 2005, not 'the new one' that's coming out this year.

[YDload]

Just a couple songs today, both very :cool:

Morphine- Honey White
Television- Venus

Here is how to play the main riff of Honey White, as I have attempted to figure out:

G------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------
A-0-2-0-3-2-0-2-0-3-2-0---0-2-0-3-2-0----------
E-----------------------------------------3333-1-

:cool:

[Ficus]

Big Black + Butthole Surfers
Same here, I've been listening to Rich Man's Eight Track Tape and thanks to Paul150, Locust Abortion Technition should be coming in the mail.

[Daniel!]

Mission of Burma - Vs.
Mission of Burma - ONoffON

These guys are fantastic. I really need to get Signals, Calls, and Marches sometime soon.

[EightMilesHigh]

Once again, I am digging Dust Bowl Ballads by the one and only Woody Guthrie. If any of you like Bob Dylan, definitely check out Woody Guthrie.

[Kurtz]

Broken Social Scene
The Flaming Lips

[Little Man being Erased]

The Drones - Wait Long by the River...
Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever
The Afghan Whigs - Gentlemen
Cursive - The Ugly Organ

[Dude3]

Desaparcidos
Look Mexico
Chiodos
Farewell to Twilight
Refused
Radiohead

[ATM]

Low
Mono
Mercury Rev
Little Barrie

[Daniel!]

NoMeansNo - Wrong
Husker Du - Metal Circus
Husker Du - New Day Rising

Wrong is an incredible album. Every time I listen to it, it blows me away. The Du albums are great also.

[Little Man being Erased]

Wrong is an incredible album. Every time I listen to it, it blows me away. The Du albums are great also.
They really should do a reissue of that. So I can buy it. :(

[Daniel!]

They really should do a reissue of that. So I can buy it. :(
Try ebay. Ebay has everything.

[Little Man being Erased]

Try ebay. Ebay has everything.
I've looked before with no luck.


EDIT: Just found one CD in Canada for $15 Canadian. **** that.

[Daniel!]

Well that sucks. You could always buy it from amazon for $106.23

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah exactly.

[br3ad_man]

Today I dug some Queens of the Stone Age, Converge, Belle and Sebastian and Broken Social Scene. Also I Heart Hiroshima.

[OrbDragon]

The new Lips is growing on me, but it's still not nearly as good as the 1992-2002 era records. Or as consistant.

The best tracks are Mr. Ambulance Driver, The Sound Of Failure, It Overtakes Me, Haven't Got A Clue and Pompeii Am Gotterdammung (the only really mindblowing song on the album IMO). This record is a grower. With a record like Transmissions or Soft Bulletin, I was blown away from the first second. This record needs time to sink in. The songs on Mystics probably work better live than on record. Just a hunch of mine.

[br3ad_man]

I consider myself to be a huge Flaming Lips fan, but I'm not sure if I'll buy this one. When's it out?

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I've been digging Frog Eyes - The Golden River.
I like the dramatic lyrics, and the Tom Waits-ish percussion that randomly goes *ding* every now and again.

[JonM]

I'm digging Saul Williams again. He's really special. I'm so excited by the prospect of a return to poetry as a primary mode of expression, and it's kind of starting to happen.

[Bukowski]

Satori - Savor Every Moment
Lightning Bolt - Hypermagic Mountain

Nice calm trad ska followed by straight up noise rock. It's good shi't/

6 Prefuse 73 21
7 Sufjan Stevens 20
8 The Flaming Lips 18
9 Goldmund 13
9 Cocteau Twins 13

Decent week this week. I always expect to have higher numbers than I do, which is because I use other mediums besides my computer's mp3s pretty regularly.

Asymm's radio show thing - "Untitled; 1970"

this is pretty fly so far. One of my favorite Cocteau Twins songs, too.
Excellent man, hope you enjoy it!

5 Sleater-Kinney 41
6 Danny Elfman 33
6 Dean Martin & Frank Sinatra 33
8 Lovage 25
9 Faith No More 18
10 Solomon Burke 17

I actually thought I'd listened to more Rat Pack, but otherwise it's about what I expected. I like that all those Coliseum listens only took up about an hour and a half.

As for now, I'm listening to the Lovage record again, and liking it more and more each time I do. It's so over the top, in it's own way. Might have to check out Jennifer Charles (Elysian Fields, I think?) a bit.

Overall I'd say it's been a week full of fake bands and I don't actually have a last.fm thing but I just want to see if anyone reads this crap because I really don't.

[Little Man being Erased]

Wheel That Giant Potato Salad Bowl Over Here, Earl are awesome.

[YDload]

Wheel That Giant Potato Salad Bowl Over Here, Earl are awesome.

They're alright I guess. I mean, the Chicks with Bricks EP was amazing, but their follow up album Stab Me One For the Prussians was kind of lackluster. I just wish they didn't have so many filler tracks dealing with the Whiskey Rebellion, but what can you do?

[Little Man being Erased]

I dunno man, I really kind of enjoyed Stab Me One For the Prussians. But I guess my favourite release of theirs is the early underground demo that they recorded in the bomb shelter under the drummer's barn. It's called Bats Flying North-West. Keep an eye out for it.

okay i am going to have to call bullshit on that one. everyone knows Marion Coriander doesn't have a bomb shelter under his barn. that's just an urban legend :rolleyes:

he actually uses the space for a hyperbaric chamber that he sleeps in to maintain his youthful vigor and the stamina he needs to play songs like "Whatever Melons May Reign on Earth, I Know Honeydew Is Waiting For Me In Heaven."

Actually, now that you mention it, that does seem plausible. After all, the guys are pushing 40 these days. And "Whatever Melons May Reign on Earth, I Know Honeydew Is Waiting For Me In Heaven" takes a fair bit of stamina to pull off. My band used to cover that song, but our drummer couldn't handle it, so we had to stop.

Now we just play a wicked cover of "The Night the Evil Frost Came and Stole Our Entire Eggplant Crop."

Supersilent - 7 DVD
One of the most moving and intense musical experiences I've felt. Amazing.

[ATM]

Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein

"While it can be said that many underground crews have been floundering in the gray matter of indie hip-hop, Cannibal Ox filled that area in with 2001's The Cold Vein for El P's Def Jux imprint. The music press had been quick to point out that Vast Aire and Vordul Megilah's attack is at times highly derivative of the Wu Tang Clan, and the point is valid. Thankfully, El P (a serious candidate for producer of the year) lays out some of the most lushingly intriguing sounds and beats that feel as herky-jerky as they sound gilded with silk. It's a bit misleading to harp on the Wu factor that The Cold Vein contains since this record's content is immensely original and the Wu references that seem present are in the enlightened gloomy flow and psychedelic backdrops -- not, (with all due respect) in the kitschy hooks and unfocused rhymes that Wu Tang are also known for. Aire and Megilah swirl around in b-boy posturing and obtuse nonsense as their innovation rears its head at every corner with scatter-shot lines like: "And I ain't dealin' with no minimum wage/I'd rather construct rhymes on a minimum page," and "You were a still-born baby, your mother didn't want you but you were still-born." While there's not a throwaway track per se, the album's length does run a bit long (at least they didn't make it into a double CD as a lot of rap acts have been known to do). To their immense credit, Cannibal Ox and El P have assembled one of the most listenable hip-hop albums in far too long. Heads be aware: Independent hip-hop has a new voice and this is your beat fix for 2001."

[ATM]

I never really saw what was so great about that one either, man.

Ill take Mmm...food over that anyday.

[Little Man being Erased]

The Beatles - Rubber Soul and Revolver

I think these have become my two favourite Beatles albums.

[Zappa]

Madvillainy is crap.

[The NPC]

Empire

[pixiesfanyo]

Madvillany isn't that bad.

But yeah, it's like Doom's worst material.

[Kurtz]

Beastie Boys - Intergalactic

I haven't heard this since 5nd grade or so.

[Little Man being Erased]

Rubber Soul is meh, except for "Michelle".
You know what? You're meh. Yeah.

[Little Man being Erased]

saying that to me is a felony in some areas.
So is screwing your sister, but you do that anyway.


:eek:

[YDload]

I keep hearing "My Humps" in this commercial for ringtones or whatever, and I'm pretty relieved that it's not getting stuck in my head. What's the deal, Black Eyed Peas? Normally your shitty music that oversaturates ads is at least disturbingly catchy! I guess I should be grateful, but I'm just annoyed :angry:

[EightMilesHigh]

These girls (and one really flamboyant guy) were sitting in a circle in the hall at my school singing that today.

In Vancouver, there's a thing where you go up to a camera on the street, put in a dollar, and you get to talk to the camera, and they show it on TV. The other night, I saw a bunch of really fat girls dancing and singing that on the camera. I almost choked on my own vomit.

I cannot escape that "song." It's horrible. I can't fathom why anyone could possibly enjoy that.

It's not about the music really, it just serves as a reminder that Fergie or Furgy, whatever, is a part of that group. Everyone just tunes in and buys their stuff I guess to get off to her humps.

[Little Man being Erased]

Flamboyant? You mean camp, right?

[Little Man being Erased]

Fergie is repulsive.

[The NPC]

Fergie is repulsive.

Well she's the selling point so she's not to alot of guys I guess.

[pixiesfanyo]

I'd have to agree.

But then again.. there is your side project.

OH MAN HUGE BURNS

@ Nacho

[The NPC]

Fergie is far from attractive. Plus that song makes me want to strangle her.

I like chicks who have that 40s Pin Up girl look.

[Little Man being Erased]

I like girls who look like guys.

[pixiesfanyo]

Did he make you sit on his lap alot?

[Little Man being Erased]

No, he did beat the crap out of me several times though. Apparently he didn't swing that way.

I've been listening to Sgt. Pep's for the past 2 hours.

Happy times.

It might be time for some Funkadelic.

I've just been cycling through a lot of random crap today. I mainly listened to NWA and High on Fire though.


1 Okkervil River 24
1 Maudlin Of The Well 24
3 Johnny Cash 21
4 Dreamend 18
5 Belle and Sebastian 13
6 Antony and the Johnsons 11
7 French Teen Idol 6
7 birds are spies, they report to the trees 6
9 Youth Group 5
10 Necrophagist 4

Last.fm never works. Maybe I need to update iTunes.

[Little Man being Erased]

The Strokes - First Impressions of Earth
David Bowie - Low

[br3ad_man]

I'm listening to The Drones now that I found out a girl from my friend's youth group likes them, which is totally unexpected. I convinced her to go see them too.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, I might be able to organise myself so that I can see them when they play at the Zoo at the end of March. That would be cool.

[br3ad_man]

That would be sweet. I think that most cool Aussie Mxers are Brisbane people.

[pixiesfanyo]

The Mars Volta - 04-03-03 (good bootleg)
Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye
Binary Star - Masters of the Universe

I suggest if you like rap you go download Binary Star's album. It is superb.

(dl it there)

[reverend ana t]

hmm... most of what i've listened to lately:

Elf Fatima, Kill All W
Pit Er Pat, Shakey

[Bartender]

Gospel - The Moon Is a Dead World

I've had this for a couple of months, I think, but this is only the third time I've listened to it. I like it. Not sure why. Just something very.. 'interesting' about it, or something.

because they are kings.

Well that could be it, too.

[ATM]

1 Eagles of Death Metal 10
2 The Dresden Dolls 7
3 Pinback 6
4 Mudhoney 5
5 The Streets 1
5 The Egyptian Lover 1
5 The Decemberists 1
5 The Helio Sequence 1

I need to use Winamp more.

[YDload]

Minus the Bear- Menos El Oso

Every time I listen to this album, I find a new favorite song. This time, it's the last song, "This Ain't A Surfin' Movie." There's a really great part where it gets quiet, and then six notes ring out from all the instruments at once. Not a novel invention to create interesting musical moments, but it still works.

[rocknrollstar5]

Revolver, i havet listened to it in ages but now i cant stop

[talk show host]

Mostly been digging random songs as opposed to albums recently. A lot of stuff I haven't listened to since school too.

picks of the week:

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - (Are You) the One That I've Been Waiting For

It's been a few months since i've listened to any Cave. The lyrics in this song still blow me away.

Husker Du - Celebrated Summer

This song makes me happy. The chorus melody reminds me a lot of REM but more intense and awesome.

Kaizer's Orchestra - Maestro

I'll be damned if this isn't one of the coolest songs ever.

Planes Mistaken For Stars - Copper and Stars

I hadn't listened to these guys in a long time. Kinda crappy but still kicks ***.

Silver Jews - People

The bassline makes me so happy. Probably their best song.

I've also been digging Steve Albini's projects, Minutemen, Fischerspooner and Soul Asylum.

[Little Man being Erased]

I think that most cool Aussie Mxers are Brisbane people.
Ain't that the truth.


I been digging Modest Mouse - Good News... a bit.

[The NPC]

Ain't that the truth.


I been digging Modest Mouse - Good News... a bit.

Stop yourself ASAP.

In fact, break the album and break whatever you own from that band.

[Little Man being Erased]

That's the only thing I have by them. It's pretty average really. I won't be getting anything else by them anytime soon.

[The NPC]

That's the only thing I have by them. It's pretty average really. I won't be getting anything else by them anytime soon.

Good, but you should still break it. It's fun. Just go outside chuck it up in the air and watch it smash on the pavement or street. You'll feel liberated.

[YDload]

I know I just posted my frightfully busy last.fm, but that was from last week and I think this week's list better reflects my taste anyway:

1. Youthful Jew Brigade 183
2. Speak N Spell Connected To Casio Keyboard 142
3. Queertards 129
4. Unholy Butt Welders 109
5. Ghost Piss 98
6. Dolphin Mating Calls 65
7. Burning Murray's Hair 42
8. Nig Nog 22
9. Tapwater Terry 11
10. Ed 4

Not much Ed this week :(

[Little Man being Erased]

Oh, YD. :lol: @ Unholy Butt Welders


Good, but you should still break it. It's fun. Just go outside chuck it up in the air and watch it smash on the pavement or street. You'll feel liberated.
There are CDs in my collection that are far more deserving of an early grave than the MM.

[The NPC]

Oh, YD. :lol: @ Unholy Butt Welders



There are CDs in my collection that are far more deserving of an early grave than the MM.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Damn it, just break the CDs. You'll thank me later.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'll see what I can manage.

Thanks for the help NPC.

Oh, I played the Queertards on my internet radio broadcast, Titled; 1980 a couple of days ago. It was a very insense show due to the queerness of their epic and queer sound. Their album This is Queer was the exact tie in with this painting:

http://www.artnet.com/Magazine/features/polsky/Images/polsky1-25-2.jpg (just copy and paste it)

It just spoke volumes without hinting at it's true meaning. I didn't know what to think but I was certianly thinking something. Which is a start, I think. See there I go again. So why don't we go ahead and give them a listen, with their post hardhore post rock post goth country classic "This is Queer" here's the Queertards.

I'll see what I can manage.

Thanks for the help NPC.

Good, for even more fun...throw them off your roof.

[OrbDragon]

4 Elbow 5


I'm going to see them open up for dEUS next Monday. I really like Cast Of Thousands, but I'm not sure if their new album is diggable.

Have you heard it?

[pixiesfanyo]

Murder By Death - Who Will Survive, And What Will Be Left of Them?

Man, such solid ****.

[Ficus]

Murder By Death - Who Will Survive, And What Will Be Left of Them?

Man, such solid ****.

Great album

[Zappa]

Squarepusher - Hard Normal Daddy

I heard this a couple years ago when I was ignorant and close-minded, and barely gave it a chance. Now, upon revisitation, I love it. What a great album.

Yeah, that's truly one of the greats.

This afternoon I have dug:

Television - Marquee Moon
Off Minor - Innominate
Lee "Scratch" Perry & The Upsetters - Super Ape

Good stuff. The first and last are like masterpieces, and the middle is pretty sweet, upon first listen.

[EightMilesHigh]

I have a few CDs I wouldn't mind smashing.

Since last night's downloading spree, in the past day or say I've been digging Johnny Thunders, Lungfish, and Rites Of Spring.

[Happymeal]

Prince Paul. I just can't get enough of A Prince Among Thieves. The sheer number of skits and guests (Kool Keith, De La Soul, Chris Rock, etc.) makes it seem almost impossible for it to be cohesive, but he managed to pull it off. As far as concept albums go, this is definitely up there.

[asymm]

A bunch of self-released 7"s from a group called Various Production (http://www.various.co.uk)
Foller / Home 7"
Hater / Biker Walk 7"
Queen Bee / Cognac 7"
Sir / In This 7"

Destroyer - Destroyer's Rubies
Man Man - Six Demon Bag
Chapterhouse - Whirlpool

[sketchyjoe]

The Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime (classic)
Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis: Deluxe Edition (what a voice!)

[Zappa]

More dub on tonight's agenda. King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown by Augustus Pablo got some love. Really good.

[BillCosby]

The Drones - Wait Long By The River And The Bodies Of Your Enemies Will Float By (thanks asymm)
The Locust - The Locust
Animal Collective - Sung Tongs

[Daniel!]

More dub on tonight's agenda. King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown by Augustus Pablo got some love. Really good.

Do you have anything by Scientist?

[Zmev]

I'm organizing my cds now, but I just bought In My Tribe by 10,000 Maniacs.

[Zebra]

Blackalicious - Nia
Cake - Fashion Nugget
Beck - Mellow Gold

[Zmev]

Well that only took half an hour

[Zappa]

Do you have anything by Scientist?


No.

[ATM]

I never realized how great Surfer Rosa is until the past couple days.

[Zmev]

Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker

Pretty good so far

[ATM]

Get Love is Hell next.

[Little Man being Erased]

Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker

Pretty good so far
Good work.

I don't think you should get Love is Hell next though. It's good, but I think you'd be better off with Gold or maybe Cold Roses.


Dig:
Hot Snakes - Automatic Midnight
Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights

[Iai]

Slick Rick, bitch.

[Little Man being Erased]

Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker
The Drones - Wait Long by the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By
Common - Be

I haven't listened to Be all that much, but I discovered, on this listen, that it is most excellent.

[Bartender]

This thing on BBC2 - The Armstrongs - seems to be using lots of the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack as incidental music. So I'm kind of being suckered into liking it without even knowing what it is.

[Little Man being Erased]

Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
Interpol - Antics

[Daniel!]

No.
You need some. Scientist Rids the World... is essential listening.

[Luxor]

Lightning Bolt
Off Minor
The Khayembii Communique
Curl Up And Die
Elliott Smith

[YDload]

Akufen - My Way

Too good to be real. This is the first "microsampling" or whatever album that I've heard, so this is pretty damn impressive.

Sounds interesting. By the way, "damn" isn't filtered now.

Anyway, I think Surfer Rosa is a little better than Doolittle. But it's all good.

(old news)

[pixiesfanyo]

Surfer Rosa is the king of albums.

I'm listening to Sabbath.

WAR PIGS HAVE THE POWEEERRRRR

[Daniel!]

Mischief Brew - Smash the Windows
Mischief Brew - Bakenal
Mischief Brew - Some live show I got from the archive
Erik Petersen - Mirth
Erik Petersen - Live at the Punx Picnic in Baltimore
Erik Petersen/Robert Blake - Bellingham and Philidelphia

Last night I also spent 3 hours reading Watchmen and listening to Mission of Burma - ONoffON.

[asymm]

Liars - Drum's Not Dead

still working on whether this is good or not.
Aaah, I like this record. It's got some very nice things going for it, experiments enough (for the Liars even) but maintains enough elements of pop that makes you come back to it.

Chapterhouse - Whirlpool
My LP arrived from Italy today (cheap price, actually) - very jazzed about that
Supersilent - 7

[BillCosby]

The Good Life - Black Out

<3 tim kasher

[pixiesfanyo]

The Good Life - Black Out

<3 tim kasher

That's a decent cd.

I like Album of the Year for it's diversity though.

[br3ad_man]

Prince - Purple Rain
Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy

[Zmev]

Morcheeba - Charango

[Little Man being Erased]

Johnny Cash - The Essential Johnny Cash
The Drones - Wait Long by the River...
The Decemberists - Picaresque

and now
Handsome Boy Modeling School - White People

[Little Man being Erased]

Damn. Why have I not heard the Zombies before now?


****ing awesome.

[Bukowski]

Meat Puppets - II
Saccharine Trust - We Became Snakes

We Became Snakes is the coolest album ever made, and Drugstore Logic is the coolest song ever made.

Lots of people seem tobe diggin' that album by the Drones, i'm gonna listen to it and see what the hype is about. It betta be good.

[pixiesfanyo]

Mylo - Destroy Rock & Roll
(Kind of a blend of Daft Punk/Boards of Canada and Air, some pretty decent electronica)

Jdilla - Donut
(A DJs tribute to soul I guess? Probably my second favorite release of '06 after Kayo Dot's new one.)

[BJ_maddog]

The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou soundtrack.

Also, I'm waiting for the new Augie March album...
Here's a taste :http://antz.bur.st/random/AugieMarch-OneCrowdedHour.mp3

[pixiesfanyo]

The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou soundtrack.

Also, I'm waiting for the new Augie March album...
Here's a taste :http://antz.bur.st/random/AugieMarch-OneCrowdedHour.mp3

yesssss. Augie March record. They're like one of my favorite indie rock bands second to Built to Spill

[Happymeal]

Lifetime - Hello Bastards and Jersey's Best Dancers

[Little Man being Erased]

yeah i kinda like that new Augie March song

[Kyle]

Matsiyahu
Mahavishnu Orchestra

[Dave de Sylvia]

GNR \m/

[asymm]

Liars - Drum's Not Dead
that
and
Aphex Twin - Richard D. James Album
Fennesz - Endless Summer

[Jawaharal]

Life Detecting Coffins = crunk
And whoever sings for Eels has the coolest voice ever

[Dog]

Talking Heads - Talking Heads: 77
Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings And Food


Man, these DualDisc re-releases sound great.

[Zappa]

Talking Heads - Talking Heads: 77
Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings And Food


Man, these DualDisc re-releases sound great.

They really do. The new stereo DVD mix of More Songs... gives it a vitality it never had.

[Dog]

The new mix gives it a much fuller sound than the semi-dull original recording, but if you're not already a fan of the album I don't think it'd sway your opinion.

[Dog]

Yeah, if that was a big problem you had with the original you'll enjoy the re-release a lot more. I'm sure you can find an enhanced version on soulseek or something.

[Ornery Cephalopod]

Cult of Luna - s/t
Pavement - Terror Twilight
Witchcraft - s/t

Y'dig?

[Ornery Cephalopod]

babaloooooooooooooooooooo

Please tell me that's from Space Ghost.

But don't tell me that if it's not. It's just a saying man, you don't have to take it so seriously.

[Kurtz]

Ash

[ATM]

Radiohead - Towering Above the Rest

Really, really good. It's amazing that these are only b-sides.

\m/

I love it too.

As for me, I'm diggin the Dresden Dolls and the Pixies, with a little Built to Spill on top.

[EightMilesHigh]

with a little Built to Spill on top.

I'm really getting into Built To Spill. They do a great version of Cortez The Killer by Neil Young.

[ATM]

I need to hear that. That's one of my favorite Neil tunes.

Nice avatar.

Smithers: They aren't booing, they're saying Boo-urns!
Somebody else: No we are definantly booing
Hans Moleman: I was saying Boo-urns...

[Luxor]

Off Minor

[Daniel!]

This Bike Is a Pipe Bomb
Mischief Brew
Erik Petersen
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
The Big Boys

[br3ad_man]

Dresden Dolls, Dillinger Escape Plan and Isis

[Kurtz]

Queens of the Stone Age

[YDload]

Some old Trail of Dead stuff from Madonna and their S/T. "A Perfect Teenhood" (or is it "Lonely?" I forget!) is a really good song.

Also, HORSE the band :)

[ATM]

Their keyboard player looks like Napolean Dynamite.

[Little Man being Erased]

Radiohead - Towering Above the Rest

Really, really good. It's amazing that these are only b-sides.
What the heck is this and where the hell can I get my hands on it?


I just picked up At Folsom Prison and At San Quentin (the re-released versions) so I'm digging Folsom at the moment. Go Johnny Cash.

[Zmev]

Pulse Ultra - Headspace

Its alright, interesting to hear stephen richard's voice before he went to taproot.

[Little Man being Erased]

Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska

I just got this today as well. I don't like much of The Boss' stuff that sounds like "Born in the USA," but this is just plain awesome.

[Mr Observations]

The Fall
Mission of Burma
Swans
Tindersticks
Squirrel Bait

That's my week.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, I kinda researched a little bit and found out that it is a massive huge thing that i can't possibly dowlonad on a modem connection. This makes me sad. Being the Radiohead fanboy that I am.



I believe that warrants a :(

[br3ad_man]

The Dresden Dolls - The Dresden Dolls

This is really an amazing album.

[Bartender]

EDIT: ^It's alright.

I've been re-listening to Solomon Burke, since the episode of House I had last night finished with one of his best songs playing.

Also been listening to Coliseum - loud and fast and pointless, so that's all very excellent - and little bits (various songs) from what Blackalicious stuff I have (A2G EP, Blazing Arrow and The Craft).

[Kyle]

De La Soul and Wolf Parade for most of today.

[Bukowski]

Minor Threat and Streetlight Manifesto

[EightMilesHigh]

The mention of the Beastie Boys in alt/indie dance songs thread prompted to put on Licensed To Ill.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

AFX - Chosen Lords [yay, it leaked.]
Beep Beep - Business Casual
Mum - Yesterday Was Dramatic, Today Is OK

[Daniel!]

The mention of the Beastie Boys in alt/indie dance songs thread prompted to put on Licensed To Ill.

I listened to that and Check Your Head. Good stuff.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

The Flaming Lips - At War With The Mystics
I like it.

[myiaa]

Final Fantasty (band not computer game) - Has A Good Home
Wolf Parade - I can;t remember the album but it's good
The Dead Science - Submariner
and some K'Maro who is a French poppy rapper

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Someone recommended Your Blues to me the other day. I might check it out. But I won't expect anything too good.

[Happymeal]

Sex Positions
Give Up the Ghost

And later I'm gonna listen to Calla's Scavengers before I sleep to end a tiring and somewhat depressing day.

[YDload]

here is another bassline i will teach you how to play since i just figured it out :):(

The bass solo/ditty in HORSE the Band's song "Purple" :

D--0h5-0h7-0h8-0h7-0h10-0h8-0h7-

i'm not really sure if those are hammers-on or pulloffs but just keep that open D ringing or alternate in a pedal tone and it will be fairly accurate!

[Interstate]

On my 5 hour coach journey up to Liverpool I listened to a few albums:

Joy Division - Closer
The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Take It From The Man! (I need more of this band)
Mogwai - Happy Songs For Happy People
Sigur Rós - ()
The Violent Femmes - S/T

Plus a mixture of other stuff.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

The Jolly Rogers - The Jolly Rogers Demo
Boris - Pink

[Bartender]

Pink is proving impossible to find for me. I've only seen it on eBay, and I stopped trying to get it once it went above £20.

Stupid band.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

That's a shame, since it's a great album.
Probably the best album I've heard this year so far.
And Boris have taken the place of favourite Japanese band.

[Mattfanatic]

The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Take It From The Man! (I need more of this band)

their albums are all free on their website...

[charolastra]

pia fraus
ash ra tempel
13 and god
autolux

...here comes the weekend!

[rocknrollstar5]

Bobby D's Greatest hits

[JonM]

I'm digging lots of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (pre-Pearl Jam, of course), because Qawwali is the most awe-inspiring musical form in human history.

[OrbDragon]

The Flaming Lips - At War With The Mystics
I like it.

I was uninformed about their European tour dates one week too long. I pray there are still tickets left when I'm going to get 'em tomorrow.

I wish their website would just update the dates dammit!

[asymm]

The Fiery Furnaces - Bitter Tea
The National - Alligator [Bonus Tracks]
Clogs - Lantern
Isolée - Wearemonster

[Mr Observations]

Guided By Voices - Bee Thousand
Gastr Del Sol - Camoufleur
Jesus Lizard - Goat

[BillCosby]

The Flaming Lips
Cap'n Jazz
Belle and Sebastian

[br3ad_man]

Radiohead - "Killer Cars"

if this song was on The Bends instead of one of the crappier tracks, it would be amazing.

Instead of "Sulk" probably. It's one of their best songs.

[Sleeper]

Sonic Youth
Job for a Cowboy
Nine Inch Nails
Tool

[pixiesfanyo]

what happen to not just posting obscure band names and acutally saying something?

[Zappa]

I haven't posted since I gave myself a new avatar yesterday. What a wild thing.

I have been digging a lot of (the same three) dub (albums) this week, hence the Lee "Scratch" Perry avatar. Also on the menu has been Sergei Rachmaninoff's Vespers, Op. 37, which I've pimped about a thousand times in this thread, and you STILL haven't downloaded it from me. Also did a double-shot of X the other day, listening to both Los Angeles and Wild Gift one after the other. I like them more and more every time I listen.

[Daniel!]

Morphine - Cure For Pain
The Slackers - Redlight
The Slackers - The Question

The Slackers are such an incredible band. I need to get their new album.

[Zmev]

Elf Power - A Dream in Sound

This album used to bore me, its quite good, but hopefully doesnt have the one time appeal Of Montreal seem to have.

[EightMilesHigh]

I'm listening to Refused today.

What an amazing band.

[Daniel!]

Vic Ruggiero - Alive at the Lady Bug House

The Slackers singer/keyboard player's solo album. Just him and his acoustic guitar. No ska tracks at all. It's great music but the best part is by far his voice.

[pixiesfanyo]

J Dilla - Donuts.
Pixies - Surfer Rosa

Go listen to J Dilla if you like Madlib's production.

[Robert Crumb]

Go listen to J Dilla if you like Madlib's production.

Or even if you don't like Madlib's production.

I haven't listened to any music all day. Except the theme song from Curb Your Enthusiasm. A very bouncy, carnivalesque number, if you've never heard it. I think I'd like more of that. Earlier in the week, I was listening to Centro-matic's new album. I don't know if anyone has coined this term yet, but I call it belt-buckle rock. They're from Texas and I guess they've been around for a while, my first experiences with 'em though. Decent enough, American rock that sounds like American rock. A little too radio-friendly-MOR at times. I guess someone from the Drive-By Truckers likes them, so maybe fans of thems ought to look into that. They've got a couple really nice fuzzy dice songs.

[zabbit82]

Has anyone heard of the band Dropsonic? I know not many people know them, but I just want to see who does here at MX. I was introduced to thier new album "Insects With Angel Wings" a few weeks ago from a friend and I absolutely love it.

I've also been diggin some Pepper, Matisyahu, Trey Anastasio, At The Drive-In, and Coheed and Cambria along with Dropsonic.

[Rockafella]

The Plot To Blow Up The Eiffel Tower - Love In The Fascist Brothel

I can't believe I forgot how ****ing awesome this album is.

[Zmev]

Cynic - Focus

It's like Death with bass.

[Zappa]

Cynic - Focus

It's like Death with bass.

That album is remarkably awesome.

EDIT: Right now I'm listening to Temple of Low Men by Crowded House for the first time in a long while. Great "adult alternative" type album. Very nice.

[Jawaharal]

The Plot To Blow Up The Eiffel Tower - Love In The Fascist Brothel

I can't believe I forgot how ****ing awesome this album is.
Is that the album with the dude with boobs one the cover? If so, I almost bought it today =/

I've been digging me some Mars Volta. Its been forever since I last listened to their wankage.

[pixiesfanyo]

Q-Tip - Kamaal the Abstract

Maybe the tightest album of his and Tribe's career. Funny that it never acutally got released, I think it would've been highly successful.

[Little Man being Erased]

I like "The W.A.N.D." It's cool.

Also loving some other random songs I downloaded recently. The Zombies, Elliott Brood, Lilys and Annie.

[BJ_maddog]

I'll see your "From Me To You" and raise you "Can't Buy Me Love". That's my all time almost most favouritest song.

[hits of sunshine]

Frank Zappa (and with the Mothers as well)
Sonic Youth
Cat Power
Belle & Sebastian

[Dave de Sylvia]

The Beatles wrote The Handbook of Underrated Songs, which is often overlooked in favour of their more popular material

[YDload]

Still listening to Radiohead, because "Killer Cars" has made my list of the most perfectly put together rock songs of all time (ie. the songs that are a constant rush of pure hook-age). In case you're wondering:

Radiohead - "Killer Cars"
Lilys - "You're Getting Closer"
The Beatles - "From Me to You"
U2 - "I Will Follow"

I can't think of any other ones off the top, it's late.

Hmm, would "Same in the End" by Sublime fit that category? Or am I tricking myself into believing that it's a non-stop blast because I love playing the bass parts so much?

Anyway I'm diggin Clouds Taste Metallic by Flaming Lips.

[Daniel!]

Anyway I'm diggin Clouds Taste Metallic by Flaming Lips.
Awsome. Me too.

[YDload]

No clue, I only know the Sublime singles.

Okay, what about the QOTSA singles from Songs for the Deaf? Are they closer to reaching that sort of awesomeness that you're talking about?
