What I've Been Digging Lately

[Iron Bug]

I'm listening to Band Of Horses, I like it a lot.

[JonM]

I'm going to revisit the old Common Sense records, because the new one tainted my perception of the old ones.

[ATM]

Do you have Electric Circus?

I'm still digging Blind Willie McTell.

[JonM]

No, I don't, and I'm going to get it right now. I have Resurrection and One Day..., and I used to have Like Water For Chocolate but it seems to have disappeared.

[Zappa]

The The - Mindbomb

[Zebra]

The The - Mindbomb

[EightMilesHigh]

Fall Out Boy - From Under The Cork Tree


/rubs eyes in disbelief

Anyway, I'm digging Alice Cooper today. Then again, when am I NOT digging Alice Cooper?

[Dave de Sylvia]

When he's digging you.

I downloaded Trash today so yay

[XxcheetoxX]

Mf Doom - Vaudville Villian Its pretty good, but overrated. The beats are varied and definately not standard rap dance beats. Though the songs drag on sometimes and MF's voice isn't exactly exciting....

[EightMilesHigh]

I downloaded Trash today so yay

Produced by Desmond Child, who also produced Bon Jovi, which I think are one of your gay glam bands

[Dave de Sylvia]

Desmond Child also wrote Livin' La Vida Loca

[ATM]

I can't get enough MF Doom

The Mmm..Food leftovers album is so good.

[asymm]

Tindersticks - Tindersticks
and the television show:
The Wire

[Zappa]

Been a while since I played the Prestige release Moondog by the artist of the same name. It's amazing.

[Zappa]

I can't get enough MF Doom

The Mmm..Food leftovers album is so good.

You can't spell it with 3 m's, because then it ceases to be an anagram of his name.

[711]

Tom Delounges new band Angels and Airwaves is amazing. The song "The Adventure" is incredible.

[JonM]

Been a while since I played the Prestige release Moondog by the artist of the same name. It's amazing.I've introduced five people to Moondog since you told me about him, and every one of them has hated him. What is their problem?

[Zappa]

I've introduced five people to Moondog since you told me about him, and every one of them has hated him. What is their problem?

I don't really like the other Moondog s/t. Maybe you've been showing him that silly King Arthur soundtrack and not the really interesting earthy woodblock stuff on the other s/t?

[JonM]

No it's all the earthy stuff. That's the stuff I like too.

[Zappa]

Weird, then. I think that stuff is marvelous.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Aforementioned Alice Cooper album sucked, as does this Gwen Stefani one I can't bear to listen to anymore.

[Jacaranda]

as does this Gwen Stefani one I can't bear to listen to anymore.
Blasphemy. If you can ignore the horrible lyrics its pretty good.

[BillCosby]

Not even "Bubble Pop Electric"? That song is dope. But everything else is meh or below meh.

[ManK]

Recently stole my friends Ipod, and I've really rediscovered Billy Talent, kickass band out of the South Ontario music scene, really good stuff, dwnld (or buy if you haven't already) their album, you will not be disappointed.

[YDload]

Nobody likes Billy Talent and you're a faggot for stealing an iPod.

[BillCosby]

<3 ydload


I've been digging Against Me!

I don't know if I should put a period after that.

[Tangy zizzle]

Heh, Ian's cold-blooded.

Faux Pas
Spoon - Gimme Fiction
Weezer - Green

[Easyblue]

Boards of Canada - Geogaddi
June of 44 - Four Great Points
70's Neil Young.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Nobody likes Billy Talent and you're a faggot for stealing an iPod.
I find when somebody describes something as coming 'out of' somewhere, it tends to be preceded by something really ****ing stupid.

This morning/afternoon:

Dead Boys - Young, Loud, And Snotty
Metallica - Ride The Lightning
Morrissey - Vauxhall And I

[br3ad_man]

A Silver Mt Zion - Born Into Trouble As Sparks Fly Upwards
Indian Summer - Live at the Blue Universe

[Smackers]

Various Artists - Last Visible Dog - Invisible Pyramid: Elegy Box

[ATM]

Dead Boys - Young, Loud, And Snotty


Yes! I love them.

Anyhow, I think Liam Lynch's Fake Songs is a sweet album. His "Fake Depeche Mode Song" is brilliant.

[JonM]

Yeah, still digging Common. Electric Circus is wonderful.

[Late_Ricky]

this is my first post in this thread - hello everybody, by the way! I am digging... thru Nick Cave's stuff... I will be listening to Nocturama, that I haven't listened to for a long time now... And I am going to discover why! Bye, Riccardo

Listened to Deerhoof's The Runner's Four today while walking home and tried skipping to the beat of the songs. It didn't work. I think it kept the clouds from pissing on me though.

[pixiesfanyo]

Toby Driver's solo album.

Such a tremendous piece of work.

[Kurtz]

The New Pornographers

YES

[asdf]

I don't really like the other Moondog s/t. Maybe you've been showing him that silly King Arthur soundtrack and not the really interesting earthy woodblock stuff on the other s/t?
This is the same Moondog that did Bird's Lament, yes?

I believe I'm performing that song or another moondog song in my school's battle of the bands.

[ATM]

Misfits - Legacy of Brutality

Very very good.

Cloud Cult - Advice From the Happy Hippopotamus

Also very very good.

[YDload]

The new Foo Fighters single. "No Way Back" or whatever it's called. Reminds me of late Husker Du, honestly.

I think, especially in the chorus, it sounds a lot like early Green Day.


I TOLD you they were heavily influenced by the Huskers :mad:

[El Chavez Red]

Pulp - Common People

[Robert Crumb]

Ladytron
Percee P
Four Tet
Black Dice

Among other stuff. I've had my hands full lately. Full of music. If music was junk, I'd have OD'd.

Pretty normal week in terms of the bands I listen to, only a few new ones. I was reviewing Rites of Spring's End on End and had never heard the band before, so I made sure to listen to that one attentively. Listening to Panic!At the Disco to see what all the fuss was, not too impressed. And Andrew Bird's album The Mysterious Production of Eggs is fantastic. If anyone is familiar with his other work, do you have any album recommendations?

No. 3 is me. I'm not into myself, I swear.

[Ornery Cephalopod]

it's 'New Post-Metal Albums Day' for me!:

Jesu - Silver EP
Cult of Luna - Somewhere Along the Highway

The Jesu is kinda disappointing, I really only dug one song on it. I'm only partway through the 'Luna, but I'm diggin' it pretty good.

Since it's a promo, I gotta put up with some dude saying "you're listening to Somewhere Along the Highway, etc etc" every once in a while. But I had no idea Cult of Luna was even gonna have a new album soon, so I guess I can't complain.

[JonM]

Must've been a gooood week.I mean yeah. But I do listen to Bob Marley sober.










It just so happens that this week I wasn't.

[Tangy zizzle]

1 Idaho 48
2 Jawbox 36

4 Figurines 15
6 Death Cab for Cutie 10
7 Red House Painters 9
8 Depeche Mode 5
9 Don Caballero 4
10 T.I. 2

Jawbox is the best rock band of the 1990's. Try to dispute this if you want but it's a pretty solid fact.

Jawbreaker, Drive Like Jehu, Nirvana, Kyuss, Afghan Whigs etc... All better.

[pixiesfanyo]

Jawbreaker, Drive Like Jehu, Nirvana, Kyuss, Afghan Whigs etc... All better.

You forgot the New Radicals.

[Little Man being Erased]

All I've been listening to are all these new albums I got in the last week. What else could I need?

Morrissey - Vauxhall & I
Elvis Costello - This Year's Model
Sleater-Kinney - One Beat
Television - Marquee Moon
The Ponys - Laced with Romance
The Flaming Lips - At War With The Mystics
Neil Young - Harvest
Weezer - Pinkerton
The Streets - The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living
Electrelane - The Power Out

The new Streets album is pretty good, not as good as his previous albums, but still good.

[asymm]

Sonic Youth - EVOL
Lungfish - The Unanimous Hour
Sonic Youth - Dirty
Sonic Youth - Goo

[YDload]

Drive Like Jehu - not enough product to judge, and some of their stuff is too quiet/complicated to legit rock out to

That's the way I feel about them too, although the couple of really great songs they have tend to make up for it. Also, Nirvana's best work wasn't in the 90s anyway.

[Sound Boy]

Ambulance LTD
Number One Gun
Dirty Three
Wolfmother
Wolfmother
Wolfmother!!!!!!

[thegunsofbrixton]

Cuff the Duke. An awesome alt-country band, definately worth checking out - each song is pretty distinct and different from one another.

[Tangy zizzle]

I'd love to meet Nachoin person. Really I would.

Still diggin' on Faux Pas. It's clever music.

Also been on a big Weezer trip lately.

That new band with the dork from blink is on tv right now. The single sounds like U2 listening to like Saves the Day or something. Terrible.

[JonM]

The new Streets album is pretty good, not as good as his previous albums, but still good.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that it's really good. I've only listened once, but I feel like I like it better than the first one. I think the second one is a masterpiece, but in terms of which record is more enjoyable, I think it might even be the new one.

[ATM]

I just got Ill Communication by the Beasties for a dollar yesterday, so I be diggin' that junt.

[YDload]

Listened to a buncha Weezer last night, but I think chronological order would have been better :-/

Also I keep forgetting how bad my computer's speakers are so I had to listen to Pixies with headphones on to even remember that there is a bass player there.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that it's really good. I've only listened once, but I feel like I like it better than the first one. I think the second one is a masterpiece, but in terms of which record is more enjoyable, I think it might even be the new one.
It most certainly is enjoyable. I don't think it will have as much lasting enjoyability (is that a word?) as the first two albums though.

[Interstate]

I was gonna post my last fm list but it seems to represent the artists I've listened to about 2 days before it's generated which is weird so I'm not going to post it.
Over the last few days I've listened to tons of music (mainly on the way to see my girlfriend)

Big L - Lifestyles Ov Da Poor & Dangerous
The Bees - Sunshine Hit Me (why I criminally ignored this album in my collection for this long I will never know)
Scarface - The Diary
The National - Alligator
My Chemical Romance - Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge (feel free to laugh)
Funeral For A Friend - Seven Ways To Scream Your Name
Built To Spill - Ancient Melodies Of The Future
Chimaira - Pass Out Of Existence
Ben Folds - Rockin' The Suburbs

[Bukowski]

Frank Zappa - Uncle Meat
Dag Nasty - Can I Say
The Walkmen - Bows and Arrows

and lots of the Refused.

Jamie Lidell - Multiply


Yeah.

[Happymeal]

Today I checked out 65daysofstatic and Project Polaroid's s/t (one of Kool Keith's most recent releases). Both are very solid.

[BillCosby]

That new band with the dork from blink is on tv right now. The single sounds like U2 listening to like Saves the Day or something. Terrible.


I'd think it would be the other way around.

[Zebra]

Brian Eno
Moby
Yo La Tengo

[Little Man being Erased]

Speaking of Prince, I heard his new album the other night and, surprisingly, enjoyed it immensely.


Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus (the best Nick Cave album I've heard)
Eskimo Joe - A Song is a City

go aussie go

[Dave de Sylvia]

Speaking of Prince:

Prince - Sign 'o' The Times
Morrissey - Vauxhall And I
Mötley Crüe - Mötley Crüe

[Little Man being Erased]

Queens of the Stone Age - Lullabies to Paralyze
Hot Snakes - Automatic Midnight
Talking Heads - The Name of this Band is Talking Heads

[Zmev]

The Replacements - Let it Be

[YDload]

A band from Minneapolis came to our school to play. Their name is Radio ON and they were pretty good. I guess you could call em "bar rock," you know just a lot of crowd pleasing songs. I talked to them after the show about other bands from Minnesota and the first one they mentioned was The Replacements :cool:

[Zmev]

:cool: Tight.

Nomeansno - Wrong

Damn, its like a great album night or something.

[ATM]

I'm heavily diggin' all the hip hop from the mailing list. Especially Mr Lif.

[pixiesfanyo]

Another Green World needs a flaw.

[Bukowski]

Sonic Youth - EVOL
Velvet Underground - VU&N
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - From Her to Eternity

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Peeping Tom - Peeping Tom

Mike Patton's new poppy/hip-hoppy album...it's good. I was shocked when I heard Norah Jones say things like 'keep it in your pants' and 'mother****er' on it. The collaboration with Massive Attack is a standout.

[br3ad_man]

A teacher at my school likes Refused. That's pretty cool. Other than Refused I've just been listening to The Winnie Coopers.

[god is such a strong word]

lately i've been listening to obscure and overlooked genres like mathrock, artrock, shoegazing and crazy japenese rock

[Zmev]

You registered to say that?

Morphine - Yes

[Little Man being Erased]

The Bonus Disc that comes with Elvis Costello's This Year's Model. Pretty good stuff on there. And it ends with the ****ing fantastic "Stranger in the House."

[Zappa]

Queens of the Stone Age - Lullabies to Paralyze
Hot Snakes - Automatic Midnight
Talking Heads - The Name of this Band is Talking Heads

Sounds "tangy."

[Ornery Cephalopod]

-The Decemberists - The Tain EP

Although it technically really just one 20 minute song, I definitely dig this more than the full albums. I've been constantly returning to it here and there since I got it.

-Peeping Tom - s/t

Now that I've spent some time with it, I'm diggin' it more than I was at first. 'Tis nice.

Super Furry Animals - Mwng

I played one of the pretty ballad-y songs from it for my less music-savy pals, just the get a laugh with the Welshnesosity, and it made me wanna dig the full album again for the first time in a little while. Dig.

[Zappa]

Swell Maps - Jane from Occupied Europe

[Little Man being Erased]

Sounds "tangy."
Yes, "tangy" but good.

[Bukowski]

Rancid - And Out Come the Wolves
Lagwagon - Trashed

and now Operation Ivy. its been awhile.

[NineBitFable]

I've been digging
Echo and the Bunnymen- Ocean Rain,
Television - Marquee moon
and Nada Surf- Let Go

[Zebra]

Jesus Lizard - Shot

That wins the prize for being the worst album that Jesus Lizard has ever made.

Boards of Canada - Music has the Right to Children

I love Telephasic Workshop and Roygbiv.

[Little Man being Erased]

Ted Leo & the Pharmacists - Hearts of Oak

[BillCosby]

Ted Leo & the Pharmacists - Hearts of Oak

that's what i like to hear




I'm digging Gnarls Barkley. "Smiley Faces" is probably my favorite.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Paul Westerverg - Folker
Dead Boys - Young, Loud And Snotty
Trashcan Sinatras - Weightlifting
Metallica - St. Anger

[ATM]

I need to cop that Peeping Tom

Anyway, I really like Mr Lif right now, as well as The Wedding Present, with a little Bad Brains thrown on top.

And of course MF Doom, hence the avatar.

[Dog]

I was shocked when I heard Norah Jones say things like 'keep it in your pants' and 'mother****er' on it. The collaboration with Massive Attack is a standout.
yeah, weirded me out too. it works, though.

Frank Zappa - Cruising With Ruben & The Jets
Busdriver - Fear Of A Black Tangent
Peeping Tom - Peeping Tom

[asymm]

Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One
Wilderness - Vessel States
Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

[Daniel!]

Uncle Tupelo - March 16-20, 1992

My first listen to this band and I love it. This is pretty much the first time I've heard modern country music done right. The only downside is that if I get stuck listeneing to Toby Keith at my cousin's house again (they love him), it will be 100x worse.

edit: I think I might have to get a harmonica because of the totally sweet harmonica lines in Moonshiner.

[Little Man being Erased]

Pulp - Different Class
Sleater-Kinney - One Beat
Weezer - Pinkerton
The Flaming Lips - At War With the Mystics

I've decided that At War With the Mystics is friggin sweet.


And now The Streets again.

[Mr Observations]

Scratch Acid
Lydia Lunch
Adolescents
Radio Birdman

yo, these are all awesome

[br3ad_man]

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Tyranny of Distance

[Interstate]

Just downloaded the Gnarls Barkley album so I will most likely be digging that tomorrow (seeing as I'm going to bed now)

[Dave de Sylvia]

AFI - Black Sails In The Sunset
Goo Goo Dolls - Dizzy Up The Girl
Timo Maas - Loud
Jennifer Lopez - This Is Me... Then

[Robert Crumb]

Anyway, I really like Mr Lif right now

Which stuff are you listening to? His new one leaked, not quite as good as I Phantom, but maybe better than the Perceptionists in my opinion.

Me, I've been digging Broadcast. I've always wondered what these people were like. Turns out they're a bit like digital pixie stix.

[Zappa]

I have caught the Gnarls Barkley love bug as well. Oh my.

[br3ad_man]

I ****ing I ****ing I ****ing I ****ing Heart ****ing Hiroshima ****ing.

The "London in Love" video was rad.

[711]

Im starting to dig Arctic Monkeys more and more.

Good Songs (that ive heard) from "Whoever people say i am, thats who im not":

-I bet you look good on the dance floor
-dancing shoes

[Happymeal]

Digging some live Converge & Between the Buried and Me (thanks br3ad) videos on youtube.

[BillCosby]

The "London in Love" video was rad.

is it on the internets anywhere?

[br3ad_man]

I'm digging "All Mixed Up" by Red House Painters. Can someone tell me what the best album to start with is?

is it on the internets anywhere?

Not that I know of. I recorded it off TV last night.

[BillCosby]

so then put it up on the internets

[br3ad_man]

I've only got it on VHS with less than decent reception.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I saw a guy wearing a Red House Painters t-shirt today, but he was big and hairy and I got scared.

[Little Man being Erased]

The "London in Love" video was rad.
Oh my. It surely was.

[Luxor]

Listening to At The Drive-In for the first time in a long time.

[Little Man being Erased]

You can get it from me on soulseek if you can put up with a ****ing slow connection.

[Little Man being Erased]

same as this one

[Tangy zizzle]

Yes, "tangy" but good.

It it's Tangy, it's good baby. It's good.

Radio Birdman - Radios Appear
Bruce Springsteen - Darkness at the Edge of Town (this is good, but it's not Boss good)
Division of Laura Lee - Das Not Compute

I've also been diggin' all things Swami. Dan Sartain, The Husbands, White Apes... all sexy bands.

[Little Man being Erased]

It it's Tangy, it's good baby. It's good.
Never has a truer word been spoken in the history of everything ever.

[br3ad_man]

OK also, I noticed you guys jacking off on I Heart Hiroshima, so I just checked them out on myspace and "London In Love" is really good. I want to download this but I can't find them anywhere.

Alternatively, it's up on their website. http://www.ihearthiroshima.com/

Thanks for the reccomendation. There was this crazy sale at JB today and also a bunch of metal cds at Cash Converters, so I spent about 50 bucks and got 10 cds and two dvds (Opeth and Almost Famous). I even bought a second copy of Purple Rain to give to someone.

Which stuff are you listening to? His new one leaked, not quite as good as I Phantom, but maybe better than the Perceptionists in my opinion.

Me, I've been digging Broadcast. I've always wondered what these people were like. Turns out they're a bit like digital pixie stix.

I Phantom

Live From the Plantation is probably my favorite song right now.

[Little Man being Erased]

Alternatively, it's up on their website. http://www.ihearthiroshima.com/
yeah but you can't download it from there.


I finally gave in and decided to download Wrong. It's about halfway finished now and I can't ****ing wait to hear the whole thing.

[Mike]

At the Drive-in- all, but especially pattern against user, of course one armed scissor, and invalid litter dept.
Thursday- all also cross out the eyes, understanding in a car crash, 5-4-3-2-1, War all the time, and many more.
Anti-flag- a little off subject- the whole new cd, all there songs, except fore the real early die for your gov. and what not which is still good but is kinda sucky.

[Ficus]

Ween - Chocolate & Cheese

[ATM]

I downloaded some Beck albums today:

One Foot In the Grave
A Western Harvest Field By Moonlight

Both very cool.

[Zebra]

Sparklehorse - Vivadixiessubmarinetransmissionplot

One of the most underated bands evar.

[BillCosby]

Ted Leo
Gnarls Barkley
Bad Brains

[thunderzstruck]

Radiohead- OK Computer

[asymm]

Markku Lahtelan Sirkus - Vol. 1

[The Great Decay]

Buck 65 - Talkin' Honky Blues

[Zebra]

Nofx - Ribbed

[EightMilesHigh]

Calexico - Convict Pool

I can't believe I'm just discovering this. Awesome, just awesome. I think I have a new favorite band.

I could listen to Alone Again Or for days.

[pixiesfanyo]

Can - Tago Mago

[EonBlueApcolyps]

Mogwai and A Silver Mount Zion and now im getting madder that I can't see either. They couldnt of waited a few more months until im 18 could they.

[Brain Toad]

Calexico - Convict Pool

I can't believe I'm just discovering this. Awesome, just awesome. I think I have a new favorite band.

I could listen to Alone Again Or for days.

Calexico rules.

I've been getting into a lot of Zappa lately.

[Scuba_Steve]

I've been into Elliott Smith.

I've always been a huge fan, but lately I find that whenever I hear any music, it makes me want to listen to elliott smith.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Smoosh - She Like Electric (jeez, they were preteens when they recorded this. it's actually pretty good)

[Bartender]

Just downloaded the Gnarls Barkley album so I will most likely be digging that tomorrow (seeing as I'm going to bed now)

Was annoyed to see NME calling that something like the best soul album of the decade. Not that it isn't (I've not heard it); just annoyed that they'd suddenly decided to know something about soul.


Anyway, I've not been listening to much lately. Mostly songs rather than albums, exceptions being a re-dig of Young Heart Attack's Mouthful of Love (still one of my favourite newer rock albums) and Mclusky Do Dallas, which is sounding pretty good on first listen.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm having my first listen of that Gnarls Barkley gear ("Crazy" to be exact) and it's pretty cool.

[Interstate]

Yeah I gave the Gnarls Barkley album a listen today, it's okish, on first listen, it's definitely not the best soul album of the decade (I personally wouldn't classify it as soul)

[br3ad_man]

Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads

Also pixiesfanyo's stuff. It's pretty nice.

[asdf]

The peeping tom demos and soon to listen to the leaked album.

[Interstate]

Calexico - Garden Ruin
Red House Painters
Jens Lekman
Ben Lee

[JonM]

I've been digging lots of Balinese music, particularly gamelan jégog. Nobody here listens to world music, do you?

[Zebra]

Hepcat - Scientific

Ska music at its best.

[Daniel!]

Strike Anywhere - Change Is a Sound

This is some highly enjoyable stuff.

[Zappa]

I've been digging lots of Balinese music, particularly gamelan jégog. Nobody here listens to world music, do you?

I don't listen to much Latin/South American stuff, but I do enjoy different European musics and some Asian music as well.

[ATM]

Today is a great day for music in my world

Went to this awesome shop in Baltimore, and got:

Blue Cheer - Outsideinside
Cornelius - Fantasma

And my friend got

Just Ice - Cool and Deadly
Mr Lif - I Phantom

Then we went back to his place, and I copied the Just Ice album, plus got:

People Under the Stairs - S/t
Refused - Shape of Punk To Come ( I have been wanting this forever)
J Dilla - Donuts

[Zappa]

I am actually really enjoying Mr. Beast by Mogwai now. I downloaded it a while back and didn't become moved that much by it. But my parents bought me it while they were out of town, and now I like it much better.

[JonM]

People Under The Stairs are tight, aren't they?

[Happymeal]

It's been a summery feeling today.

Phoenix - United
Broken Social Scene - s/t
Murs & Slug - Felt 2 (newfound appreciation for this one)

[ATM]

People Under The Stairs are tight, aren't they?

Definantly.

[br3ad_man]

I'm listening to the Match Point soundtrack. It's a compilation of opera by Bizet, Donizetti, Rossini and Verdi. I've never been a big fan of opera before, but I'm really enjoying this.

[Zappa]

My mom watched that movie last night, and from the other room I was really annoyed by the opera. Ugh.

[br3ad_man]

You should have watched the movie with her, it owns.

I'm a little slow, but Gnarls Barkley is awesome. I'm sure I've been hearing "Crazy" on the radio. I just listened to Remission by Mastodon.

[Robert Crumb]

Someone gave my a copy of the TV on the Radio leak. I'll be listening to that later. And Lupe Fiasco. Big buzz mainstream hip hop backpacker type if you're not in the know. Not a fan of his voice but he's got a good flow, nice beats to work with. He'll probably be the next "savior of mainstream rap" titleholder and victim of general overhype. Then again, that's not much of a prediction since it's pretty much already the case.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Fugazi - 13 Songs
Justin Timberlake - Justified

Haha, odd combination, I know.

[br3ad_man]

Cat Power - Moon Pix

This is so good.

[Little Man being Erased]

Lupe Fiasco
I really like that little bit part of his in "Touch the Sky."

[Robert Crumb]

Yep, good spot. Even though I don't really like the song.

And the TVotR stuff kinda sucks. I'm sad. I hope they radically change it all magically in the month or whatever until it's released.

[Little Man being Erased]

Holy **** I love The Organ.

[JonM]

wtf Last.fm?

[Interstate]

wtf Last.fm?

Has your LastFm updated itself yet? Because mine hasn't.

[ATM]

Mine hasn't either. Bastards.

[Interstate]

Mine hasn't either. Bastards.

They must be having trouble updating their database or something. Annoying.

[YDload]

MY last.fm always updates on time ;)

[el doctor]

The New Pornographers - Mass Romantic
Camera Obscura - Underachievers Please Try Harder
The Velvet Underground - Loaded

Such an enjoyable day.

[Wanker]

Right now I'm diggin Palmless Prayer / Mass Murder Refrain by Mono & World's End Girlfriend--two Japanese post rock bands.

I found the album on the last.fm message boards. If you go to the Godspeed You! Black Emperor group board, you can find a megaupload thread with a lot of really good post rock albums.

[Interstate]

Listened to tons of music today practially all day:

Iron And Wine - The Sea & Rhythm EP
Beulah - When Your Hearstrings Break
Idaho - Three Sheets To The Wind
Xiu Xiu - Fabulous Muscles
Gun Club - Death Party EP
Echo & The Bunnymen - Ocean Rain
The Mountain Goats - Tallahassee

[BillCosby]

And the TVotR stuff kinda sucks. I'm sad. I hope they radically change it all magically in the month or whatever until it's released.


Listen to it a few more times.

[Robert Crumb]

Probably good advice.

Interspersing indie rock with Ennio Morricone at the moment. It's like there's a dramatic gun fight in my ears and someone invited Bob Pollard!

[Little Man being Erased]

Nomeansno - Wrong

Holy ****ing ****. This is certainly one *** kicking album. Awesome awesome awesome.

[EightMilesHigh]

The Fall

Awesome post-punk. Look for a thread by me about these guys in the near future.

[Zappa]

Nomeansno - Wrong

Holy ****ing ****. This is certainly one *** kicking album. Awesome awesome awesome.

Dude, welcome to my life circa 2004 or something.

Anyway, yeah, it rules.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, it took me quite a while to finally give in and download the beast. 'Cause I don't usually download albums, unless I have no other option.

p.s. avatar wtf

[Anarcho]

Recently, I've started to get into some of Seattle's and the NW's local groups. Specifically, Crystal Skulls (from seattle, can find them at www.crystalskullsonline.com (http://www.crystalskullsonline.com)) and The Helio Sequence (from portland, www.theheliosequence.com (http://www.theheliosequence.com)). They are also both on myspace if you want to find them there.

I was lucky enough to catch both of these bands in concert in Seattle, but just by chance. I had heard that the Silversun Pickups (a band out of L.A.) were coming to town, and, having just started listening to them, I was definately set on going. I honestly was blown away when the Crystal Skulls and The Helio Sequence took the stage later. Absolutely amazing.

These are two amazing bands. You should all definately check them out.

[br3ad_man]

Circle Takes The Square - As The Roots Undo

I think this is my favourite album ever. I'm going to dig Purple Rain a bit later, because I found a cheap copy of it in a pawn shop the other day. I already had a copy, but I bought to give to my friend. I'm going to refresh my memory of it and see if she likes it.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Isolée - We Are Monster

And, The Helio Sequence is good.

[Kyle]

I actually adore the new Pearl Jam CD.

[JonM]

I'm digging Divahn. They make kickass Jewish music with tablas and other cool instruments.

[Sound Boy]

The new albums by:
Tool
Snow Patrol
Taking Back Sunday

all are grrrrreat...like some ****in frosted flakes

[Interstate]

The new albums by:

There's a new Snow Patrol album? :confused:

Awesome!

Anyway today was cool (i've been listening to far more music the past few days then I normally do):

KT Tunstall - Eye To The Telescope
Do Make Say Think - & Yet & Yet
Idaho - Three Sheets To The Wind (I love this album)
Fiona Apple - Tidal

[Sound Boy]

There's a new Snow Patrol album? :confused:


i dont know if its out in stores yet..but its called Eyes Open
its kinda slow some songs but its pretty good

[Interstate]

i dont know if its out in stores yet..but its called Eyes Open

Awesome. I'll have a look on soulseek for it.

[Robert Crumb]

Dug Gnarls Barkley and Ellen Allien + Apparat yesterday. Bonus points for German electronic musicians! I'll be digging Tool and the RJD2 instrumentals for Magnificent City today.

[Kyle]

i dont know if its out in stores yet..but its called Eyes Open
its kinda slow some songs but its pretty good
Yeah I saw the new Snow Patrol in stores today when I was picking up the new Pearl Jam, I've never really liked them though.

[Interstate]

Orange Goblin - Coupe De Grace
Camera Obscura - Underachievers Please Try Harder

Odd mix but it works well.

[Kyle]

Orange Goblin - Coupe De GraceHey awesome! I saw Orange Goblin live on Sunday it was pretty amazing. They covered New Rose by The Damned, what a pleasant suprise!

[YDload]

Got the new Tool album. The packaging is interesting (stereoscopic!) and at least it justifies buying instead of downloading. The songs are pretty good as well. As a bassist, I'm seriously impressed with Justin's work on nearly every track of this album. Guitar-wise, I'm still disappointed that all of Adam's "solos" are identical to the one in "Reflection" from the last album.

Overall, if you want a mix of Lateralus and A Perfect Circle, you can expect it from this album.

[Little Man being Erased]

Morrissey - Vauxhall and I (love)
Ben Kweller - On My Way (better than I remembered but still average)
Roots Manuva - Awfully Deep (still just ok)
...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - Worlds Apart (love)

[YDload]

What's your favorite song on Worlds Apart? I love Caterwaul and A Classic Arts Showcase myself.

[Little Man being Erased]

Hard to remember but I know I love "Let it Dive" and "Caterwaul" and perhaps "Worlds Apart" too.

[Zebra]

Super Furry Animals - Love Kraft

One of my favorite albums of 2005.

[Interstate]

Hey awesome! I saw Orange Goblin live on Sunday it was pretty amazing. They covered New Rose by The Damned, what a pleasant suprise!

Man I'd love to see them live, they sound like they could tear the house down.

[Iai]

Sonic Youth's Goo. A lot. This blows Daydream Nation out of the water in my opinion.

[Kyle]

Man I'd love to see them live, they sound like they could tear the house down.Oh they did :D It was at Camden Underworld which has absolutely no securitiy or barriers too, so I got onto the stage about 8 times and danced around.

[XxcheetoxX]

Sonic Youth's Goo. A lot. This blows Daydream Nation out of the water in my opinion.
Mote and Dirt Boots are probably two of SY's very best songs. I never understood why everyone generally dislikes Goo.

[Happymeal]

Murs - Murray's Revenge

Robert, I'm with you on this one.

[Tangy zizzle]

Springsteen and Cursive.

[asymm]

The Rapture - Echoes
It's been awhile since I've listened to this and it's still terrific. It's a great, great record. Many facets of emotion but maintaining the freedom and fun of rock music.

Idaho - Three Sheets to the Wind
Joy Division - Heart and Soul
Rose Melberg - Cast Away the Clouds
Vetiver - To Find Me Gone

[Robert Crumb]

Murs - Murray's Revenge

9 Os Mutantes 4

I know for a fact I listened to more Black Dice than that. Interesting list though, I guess. I failed to buy the Tool album today so no diggage for me. I'll have it by the end of the week. Don't you hate it when you go into a music store to buy something in specific and then find out they have the something-in-specific that you wanted to buy last time you were there, effectively derailing your sense of purpose? I think that only happens to me. I'm simple minded.

[Icky_Mettle]

I don't understand all the Gnarls love, the album really annoys me.

Shearwater-Palo Santo
Low Skies-All The Love I Could Find
P.O.S.-Audition
TV On The Radio-Return to Cookie Mountain
I'm From Barcelona-Let Me Introduce You To Some Friends

those are some of my favorites so far this year....other stuff I'm digging this year

Parts & Labor-Stay Afraid
Six Organs of Admittance-The Sun Awakens
My Latest Novel-When We Were Wolves

[Robert Crumb]

Rose Melberg - Cast Away the Clouds

Can't be bothered posting my list up. I mainly listened to my cds this week. Today I'm digging some Built to Spill. "Untrustable Part 2" is wicked.

[Tangy zizzle]

I should be modding this forum.

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm really, really, really looking forward to the new Bronx album. I'm thinking the words "best" and "rock" will be used once I've heard it.

I want it NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

[br3ad_man]

The Bronx are sweet.

[Tangy zizzle]

Damm straight they are. Best punk act in the world, seeing as everyones beloved Hot Snakes are no longer with us.

[Interstate]

My last FM is really incorrect, has missed out half my week and consists mostly of my sister's music because we share a PC so I won't bother posting it.

My journey to work was one of guilty pleasures:

Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway
Panic! At The Disco - A Fever You Can't Sweat Out

I'm really, really, really looking forward to the new Bronx album. I'm thinking the words "best" and "rock" will be used once I've heard it.

I want it NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

When is it due out? Their debut was tight as **** so I can't wait for the new one

[Happymeal]

Murs again plus Dudley Perkins' Expressions, which is a very soul/funk influenced album. I'll be getting some of that Gnarls very soon.

[Little Man being Erased]

The Beatles - Help!

[pixiesfanyo]

this is the most impressive album I ever heard

You've never said this before.. :rolleyes:
