What I've Been Digging Lately

[EightMilesHigh]

Bruce Springsteen - We Shall Overcome: The Pete Seeger Sessions

Just got this today, it's Springsteen's tribute to Pete Seeger. So far, so good. Might review this.

[Little Man being Erased]

Bruce Springsteen - We Shall Overcome: The Pete Seeger Sessions

Just got this today, it's Springsteen's tribute to Pete Seeger. So far, so good. Might review this.
Yeah, that sounds really interesting and good according to the reviews I've read. I'll probably check it out at some point.

[Zappa]

It is Pete Seeger's birthday. I only know this because my english teacher announces famous birthdays.

[Little Man being Erased]

All this talk about the new Tool album has made me want to listen to them again. I don't have the new one yet so I'm listening to Lateralus for the first time in at least a year.



Oh, and I'm loving it.

[pixiesfanyo]

more like latersuckus

[Little Man being Erased]

ohhhhhh

[ATM]

I've been on a huge hip hop kick lately.

Been diggin' a lot of Sage Francis, Mr Lif, MF Doom, and Atmosphere.

Also, Nebula are really sweet.

[Zebra]

Cake - Comfort Eagle

Short Skirt/Long Jacket is one of my least favorites off the album.

[ATM]

I hate that song.

[The Great Decay]

Built to Spill - The Normal Years

[BillCosby]

The The - Dusk

Picked it up for 4 bucks, it's decent so far. I was not previously aware Johnny Marr was involved with this band.

[Robert Crumb]

Herbert - Scale

Interesting. White boy broke beat electro-soul. I think I need to listen to this on the headphones.

[Little Man being Erased]

The The - Dusk

Picked it up for 4 bucks, it's decent so far. I was not previously aware Johnny Marr was involved with this band.
Neither was I until just now.


Dug:
Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left

[Icky_Mettle]

also, THE BAMBOOS

[br3ad_man]

Broken Social Scene are so good.

[Happymeal]

Common - Be
Murs - 3:16 the 9th Edition

with a dash of Handsome Boy Modeling School

[YDload]

ummm

[Little Man being Erased]

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - Source Tags and Codes

Such a great band.

[Mr Observations]

The Sea and Cake

such a neat band. One Bedroom is excellent.

[Little Man being Erased]

Queens of the Stone Age - Lullabies to Paralyze
Weezer - Weezer (The Blue One)

[Iai]

Laura Veirs - Year Of Meteors

I don't know what I was expecting, but it certainly wasn't anything this good.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Marked Men

This is good music right hurr.

[Little Man being Erased]

Silverchair - Neon Ballroom

[Robert Crumb]

Gnarls Barkley and Herbert. This Herbert thing has more of a Burt Bacharach influence going on than you might expect. It's kinda funny, kinda good, kinda lame at points, too. Couple really solid songs, though.

[Daniel!]

Guitar Wolf - Planet of the Wolves
The Mummies - F'uck the Mummies

These albums reminded me that loud power chords are pretty much the best things ever.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Bronx - The Bronx

eh. Reminds me of Bane kind of.

This proves it, he's just a mother bird. (if you dig?)

[Tangy zizzle]

Guitar Wolf - Planet of the Wolves
The Mummies - F'uck the Mummies

These albums reminded me that loud power chords are pretty much the best things ever.

Both bitchin' discs. Guitar Wolf were really something special.

Calexico - Garden Ruin (very nice)
Flipper - Album: Generic Flipper
Art Brut - Bang Bang Rock n Roll

And still playing the new Marked Men album. It's just too tight not too be played.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Melt-Banana - Cell-Scape
Orange Juice - Rip It Up
Lali Puna - Tridecoder

[br3ad_man]

The Bronx - The Bronx

eh. Reminds me of Bane kind of.

Weird. Bane suck but The Bronx rule.

I'm listening to Elliott Smith. Either/Or and the self titled.

[Dinosaur_vs_Robot]

Where can I hear some Herbert?

[Luxor]

Braid is so cool

[Zebra]

Calexico - Garden Ruin

This album was way better then I expected it to be.

[BillCosby]

Ted Leo

Why do I bother to post?

[Robert Crumb]

Where can I hear some Herbert?

I could only find a link to this (http://betterpropaganda.com/artist_page.asp?id=1316) mp3.

[Mr Observations]

Flipper - Album: Generic Flipper


Good call.

[Daniel!]

Streetlight Manifesto - Kaesbey Nights II

I'm seeing these guys with the Aquabats on the 15th. I'm not too big a fan of the Aquabats, but I'm hoping Streetlight will be great.

[Zmev]

Streetlight are great.

[Zappa]

The Aquabats rule.

[Daniel!]

The Aquabats rule.
I imagine they'll be fun live, but most of they're stuff I've heard is just plain annoying.

[EightMilesHigh]

TMV - D-L'D In The CMTRIUM

God I'm lazy.

[Zappa]

Brian Eno and John Cale - Wrong Way Up
Gang Of Four - Entertainment!

The former I just got today. It is subtle and odd, and I think it will take a few more listens to click. The latter is a long-standing favorite.

[The Great Decay]

Cursive - Burst and Bloom
Sonic Youth - Sister

[pixiesfanyo]

Time of Orchids - Sarcast While

Kind of a proggesive, art rock record. Has five vocalist, the main one sounds like Toby Driver, so of course I dig it.

Modern Life is War - Witness

Probably one of the best hardcore albums ever made. The lyrics, music and everything is perfect. Length could be longer, I think I should've boughten this when I had it in my hand for five dollars. Oh well. My dled copy has been taking some misuse.

[br3ad_man]

Time of Orchids - Sarcast While

I notice an enormous similarity between the font on the front cover of this album and the font on the front cover of Choirs of the Eye.

[The Great Decay]

All of my Elliott Smith albums on shuffle is a beautiful thing.

[pixiesfanyo]

I notice an enormous similarity between the font on the front cover of this album and the font on the front cover of Choirs of the Eye.

Tzadik releases all of it's releases with that kind of cover.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Sonic Youth and Talking Heads.

[ATM]

I really like the Andrew Bird bootleg I have.

[Little Man being Erased]

I dig the new Mudhoney song. It's pretty rad.


Nomeansno - Wrong
Television - Marquee Moon
Neil Young - Harvest
Bob Dylan - Bringing it All Back Home
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust

All completely awesome.

[br3ad_man]

I've been listening to ASMZ a lot today. I used to think they were lame, but now I think that this Born Into Trouble... album I have is awesome.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Bolt Thrower - Mercenary
Justin Timberlake - Justified

Death metal and Justin Timberlake. Weird but oddly cool combination.

[Little Man being Erased]

Oh yeah you love the JT. I'm finally downloading that album now.

[Dave de Sylvia]

You people must have missed the JT craze like three years ago. I was the leader :cool:

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

You people must have missed the JT craze like three years ago. I was the leader :cool:

There was a JT craze?
Here?
Strange.

I liked his singles when they came out. I don't know how anyone couldn't like Rock Your Body, if only as a guilty pleasure.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Haha, I can show you the thread if you want. I got slaughtered by about twenty people with names like 'metallicajaymz' and 'maynard666' before nacho close this'd it.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Haha, maynard666.
The sad thing is someone would actually have that name.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Hahaha I just looked and there's a 'maynardisgod666'

So this morning I've been listening to:

Morrissey - Ringleader of the Tormentors
Gilby Clarke - '99 Live (in honour of the concert last night :-D)
Skid Row - Subhuman Race
Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique

[Little Man being Erased]

You people must have missed the JT craze like three years ago. I was the leader :cool:
Well we can't all be expected to be as hip or "cool" as the SOP now can we? And anyway, three years ago, I think I hated JT. :(



p.s. metallicajaymz = nacho if i'm not mistaken

[Zebra]

Tortoise - TNT

This is probably my favorite post-rock album of all time. Jetty is an amazing song.

[pixiesfanyo]

Haha, I can show you the thread if you want. I got slaughtered by about twenty people with names like 'metallicajaymz' and 'maynard666' before nacho close this'd it.

Isn't Metallicajaymz Nacho?

I'm listening to Spiral Architect - A Sceptic's Universe.

It's probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I like it though, it's kind interesting to hear people play their insturments this well. I think screaming would've fit the vocals better though, but the big epic vocals are pretty good, and the production on the album isn't as bad as something like Dream Theater or Devin Townshend. They could move the drums up in the mix though.

[Little Man being Erased]

Isn't Metallicajaymz Nacho?
didn't i say that two posts up?

[ATM]

I need some new music. The only thing I am really diggin' right now is Pavement.

[Jawaharal]

I need some new music. The only thing I am really diggin' right now is Pavement.
Listen to Amber Asylum.

[pixiesfanyo]

didn't i say that two posts up?

you're one of those users I don't pay attention too. :p

[Dave de Sylvia]

Well we can't all be expected to be as hip or "cool" as the SOP now can we?
You can try :cool:

Yeah, the Metalicajaymz thing was a nacho innovation. I'm sorry :(

So I went to college for no reason as it turns out, but I listened to:

The Wildhearts - P.H.U.Q.- I thought this album was boring when I first bought it, but two years of ignoring it have really thrown it up in my estimation. The group vocals are great.

Tommy Lee - Never A Dull Moment- Yeah, Tommy's nu-metal album. Same story, hated it but now I kind of like it. It's very well produced.

[pixiesfanyo]

Pyramids - Following the Tracks, Forcing Motion Through Phases

City of Caterpillar style emo. Good stuff.

[Happymeal]

That Refused DVD.

[The Great Decay]

Radiohead - OK Computer

[Kyle]

I just can't get enough of Pearl Jam right now. especially the song 'Rearview Mirror'...that **** is gold.

[Daniel!]

Against Me! - Crime EP
Old Crow Medicine Show - O.C.M.S.

[asymm]

Liars - Drum's Not Dead
& the DVD.

[Luxor]

Pyramids - Following the Tracks, Forcing Motion Through Phases

City of Caterpillar style emo. Good stuff.
Hook a brotha up?

[pulseczar]

Has anyone heard of David Grubbs? I'm really digging him right now, too bad the only review for him is for one of his crappy albums (which I wrote.)

[Jawaharal]

Hook a brotha up?
If he hasn't already, I have it on slsk.

[Zappa]

Against Me! - Crime EP
Old Crow Medicine Show - O.C.M.S.

That avatar is awesome.

[Zmev]

Sugar - Copper Blue

[BillCosby]

It's gimmicky for sure, but pretty hilarious:

the mormons (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=2066193)

[BillCosby]

I'm actually diggin' the Manic Street Preachers. For some reason I didn't think they'd be this cool.

[steeleo]

panic at the disco
and
dirty pretty things

[Bukowski]

Whirlwind Heat - Flamingo Honey

I might be seeing them tomorrow night. Anyone know if they're any good live?

[BillCosby]

Whirlwind Heat - Flamingo Honey

I might be seeing them tomorrow night. Anyone know if they're any good live?

I have no idea, but if you do see them, come back and tell me how they are because I'll probably be seeing them at this festival thing.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I'm actually diggin' the Manic Street Preachers. For some reason I didn't think they'd be this cool.
Damn right you didn't :cool:

I mean damn right they are! :cool:

What album/songs?

[BillCosby]

Know Your Enemy. Especially the opening track.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Oh man, it gets so much better as you start going back.

[BillCosby]

Is it more like that song? Because some of these songs are pretty bleh

[Little Man being Erased]

you're one of those users I don't pay attention too. :p
yeah i get that a lot. :(

[ATM]

yeah i get that a lot. :(

I notice you :-*

[EightMilesHigh]

Is it more like that song? Because some of these songs are pretty bleh

Get The Holy Bible. It has more ranting and raving.

[Little Man being Erased]

I notice you :-*
We people named after Radiohead songs have to stick together. :)

[Dave de Sylvia]

Is it more like that song? Because some of these songs are pretty bleh
Yeah, that was a weird album for them. There's more like that on This Is My Truth..., which immediately preceded it, but like EMH you need to go for The Holy Bible, which is just a twisted wreckage of post-punk and hard rock with lots of ranting and raving about things.

[pixiesfanyo]

Built to Spill - You in Reverse

Hm. This is different from their other stuff. I wonder if it'll grow on me. Built to Spill is probably my favorite Indie Rock band.

[Dog]

Big Star - #1 Record
Pixies - Trompe Le Monde
Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska

Whirlwind Heat - Flamingo Honey

I might be seeing them tomorrow night. Anyone know if they're any good live?
yeah, they put on a really fun show.

[Zebra]

Casino Versus Japan - Go Hawaii

I just picked this up today and it is much better then Whole Numbers Play the Basics.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

The Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs
Missy Elliott - Miss E ...So Addictive (yes, I like Missy Elliott :p)

[charolastra]

autolux
prefuse 73
13 and god
snowden
high violets

...all of that blasting on my computer right now

[ATM]

Dead Meadow - Feathers
Cooper Temple Clause - Kick Up the Fire (described as Punk Floyd)
Cannibal Ox - Cold Vein

[pixiesfanyo]

Built to Spill - Perfect From Now On

Probably the most perfect indie rock album.

[ATM]

I can't wait for them to tour again.

[Zebra]

Gustavo Lamas - Brotes

An excellent combination of house, techno, ambient, and trip-hop.

[EightMilesHigh]

The Traveling Wilburys - Vol. 1 and 3

Roy Orbison + Jeff Lynne + George Harrison + Bob Dylan + Tom Petty = one of the best supergroups of all time.

Handle With Care is so good.

[Zmev]

prefuse 73

Seeing him in 13 days :cool:

[Kurtz]

Jay Z - The Blueprint

One of the best rap albums I've ever heard

[Happymeal]

Dead Meadow - Feathers

Yeah.

Converge - Jane Doe
Jaylib - Champion Sound
El-P - Fantastic Damage

Hip hop overdose this week.

[Little Man being Erased]

Justin Timberlake - Justified
Kanye West - The College Dropout
The Streets - The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living

[Zappa]

Exile in Guyville by Liz Phair is really good and I never listen to it.

[pixiesfanyo]

De Martin Volts - Dethroned in the Planetarium

[Little Man being Erased]

Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile

Weird. I haven't listened to this in ages. I used to love it, but now I can't remember what exactly made me think it was so special. It's still pretty good though.

[br3ad_man]

Today I rediscovered that The Flaming Lips are the greatest band on the planet. Even if the new one isn't all that wonderful.

[Interstate]

Fat Joe - Represent
Showbiz & A.G - Runaway Slave - Holy **** this album is good.

[br3ad_man]

All Things Bright and Beautiful - Love and Affection

This album is amazing. I suggest checking it out. Probably the best christian band I know of besides Luxury.

[YDload]

You're a liar! Odelay is awesome. If you don't like "Where It's At" at least, then you should burn in hell for some time.

Listened to ATDI for the first time this week, decent band but they won't become one of my favourites. Loving Andrew Bird and the Beautiful South (thanks Zebra and Med respectively). Everything else is same old same old. I've been getting back into solo Moz, he has a lot of decent stuff if you wade through the crap to find it.

Which Stevie Wonder?

Good work on the J5 by the way :cool:

Mostly random songs. Specifically, his new one and Signed, Sealed, Delivered. I heard SSD played at my older sister's wedding last January and it was awesome.

[moosepirate]

The Avalanches-Since I left You

It amazes me that music like this is actually made.

[Tangy zizzle]

Whats with all of you Gnarls Barkley fanboys? Huh?

Oh yeah, Nacho you're a twat.

[Little Man being Erased]

'cause it's cool ****.



The Ponys - Laced with Romance
Neil Young - Harvest

[Tangy zizzle]

'cause it's cool ****.



The Ponys - Laced with Romance
Neil Young - Harvest

No, thats cool ****.

[Little Man being Erased]

It's all good baby.

A Ponys/Neil type band would sound cool.
Yeah, that would actually work really well. Even just a mash up of those two albums would be pretty interesting.

[Tangy zizzle]

Diggage:

The Perceptionists - Black Dialogue (probably best thing Def Jux have put out, so good)
The Marked Men - Fix My Brain (simple works people, it works)
Calexico - Garden Ruin
Beehive & the Barracudas - Featuring the Insects

[br3ad_man]

Devendra Banhart - Cripple Crow

One of those albums that's great because it's so huge.

[charolastra]

juana molina - son

the album sounds great... perfect for a busy afternoon of homework and such

[Bartender]

The Wildhearts - P.H.U.Q.- I thought this album was boring when I first bought it, but two years of ignoring it have really thrown it up in my estimation. The group vocals are great.

I never understood why all kinds of critics said it was/is their best work. Thought it was more mature than Earth vs., I suppose. I thought it was kind of disappointing when I first got it too, I think, though I love it now, naturally. Not paying too much attention to it on my first couple of listens did mean I had the pleasure of being blindsided by Naivety Play one morning walking into school, though.

[Bukowski]

Turns out I didn't get to see Whirlwind Heat, as I couldn't get a ride. Damn.

I'm diggin' massive doses of Scratch Acid.

[led-zep-chris]

I'm digging Red Hot Chili Peppers at the moment, more than ever..
Well, I've been digging them ever since I got into them, about 4 years ago and today I bought Stadium Arcadium, the new release, double disc.. absolutely amazing.
I've just read the review for it on Sputnik and it really is great, its a must-have!

[asymm]

Listening to a couple of leaks today...

The Walkmen - A Hundred Miles Off
Scott Walker - The Drift

[Bukowski]

What did you think of the new Walkmen?

[Greg Ginn]

Daniel Johnston - Hi,How Are You

[EightMilesHigh]

Rufus Wainwright - S/T

Beautiful.

[ATM]

What did you think of the new Walkmen?

Yea, I'm not sure if I should download it.

[Interstate]

Today I'm continuing my hip hop listening spree:

Method Man & Redman - Blackout!
Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill
Smif N Wessun - Still Shinin'

[ATM]

Today I'm continuing my hip hop listening spree:

Method Man & Redman - Blackout!
Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill
Smif N Wessun - Still Shinin'

Oh man, I love Blackout. I haven't listened to that in so long.

[Interstate]

Oh man, I love Blackout. I haven't listened to that in so long.

It is amazing beyond believe. I'd heard 'Cheka' and 'Cereal Killer' but the rest of them are amazing as well. I don't think there's a bad song on here. Redman is so underrated it's untrue.

[Little Man being Erased]

Just a bit of Drive-By Truckers' The Dirty South while driving to and from work.

"Danko/Manuel" is an awesome tune.

[The Great Decay]

Going to sleep last night I dug:

Husker Du - Zen Arcade
The Beatles - White Album

[Interstate]

EPMD - Business As Usual
Eazy E - Eternal E

Doesn't get much more gangsta than this.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I never understood why all kinds of critics said it was/is their best work. Thought it was more mature than Earth vs., I suppose. I thought it was kind of disappointing when I first got it too, I think, though I love it now, naturally. Not paying too much attention to it on my first couple of listens did mean I had the pleasure of being blindsided by Naivety Play one morning walking into school, though.
Heh, nice. The version of 'Jonesing For Jones' on Strike Back is beyond amazing.

Rufus Wainwright - S/T

Beautiful.
That's the one Rufus album I can't get in to. I like individual songs but overall... meh.

EPMD - Business As Usual
:h5:

I'm attempting a review of Strictly Business.

Also digging:

Yo La Tengo - Today Is The Day
Suicide - Suicide
Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers - L.A.M.F.

[pgm]

I just bought Automatic for the People. Simply amazing.

[Zappa]

I think that Suicide album is pretty unlistenable. And not all that intriguing elsewise.

I have been listening to Exile in Guyville a lot since my last post about it.

[Ornery Cephalopod]

No big album playing lately, just various songs by:

Rwake
Camera Obscura
Super Mario 3 soundtrack
Rasputina
QOTSA
Clutch
several Mike Patton bands
string quartet tribute to Slayer
Jesu
Wilco


mmmhmm.

[asdf]

Herbie Hancock - Chameleon
Estradasphere - The transformation
Frank Zappa - Peaches en Regalia

Songs that I'm learning for my school's battle of the bands on thursday.

[Zebra]

Flaming Lips - Oh My Gawd....The Flaming Lips

By far and away their most underappreciated album. The first half of the album is some of the best material they have ever released.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Is the Suicide album any good?
It's scary. You should buy it.

[Happymeal]

Common the past few days. Be is sooooo gooooood. Oh, and Murs.

[Anxious]

I used to think Suicide was crap, now I like it.

:shrugs:

[Little Man being Erased]

Television - Marquee Moon

This album is so damn great. I'm giving it 4.5/5 for now, but I can definitely see it becoming one of my favourite albums and a perfect 5.

I have the remastered version, which is fine but I don't really see the need for the inclusion of the bonus tracks other than having "something extra" because they aren't all that special.

[EightMilesHigh]

Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers - L.A.M.F.

I've been looking for that forever.

Classic rock? Upload? Mailing list? Plzzz?

[Little Man being Erased]

The instrumental is cool.
Yeah that's actually the only one I usually listen to.

[The Great Decay]

Beulah - When Your Heartstrings Break
Nick Drake - Pink Moon

[YDload]

Television - Marquee Moon

I'm not sure if it's one of my favorite albums yet, but I would still give it a perfect 5 for the way it works (especially since there's no filler). I was jammin' along to the title track with my bass and it was a lot of fun. I don't know how to play anything for certain except that simple riff, but playin' some notes in that area for the prechorus/solo jam really seems to work well.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, it just finished playing through and I realised that every single track is as awesome as the next.

[Jawaharal]

Bread's right, the Flaming Lips are rule sauce.

[Luxor]

C'mon

Television is not that good

[Little Man being Erased]

oh but i'm afraid they are

[Zmev]

Yeah, they are.

[asymm]

What did you think of the new Walkmen?
After only a once-through, it seems good but doesn't span as many moods/styles that Bows + Arrows did. It seemed to be a record with quite the heightened pace. I look forward to listening to it further.

[Little Man being Erased]

Ryan Adams - Gold
I Heart Hiroshima - A Three Letter Word for Candy
Gang of Four - Solid Gold

[br3ad_man]

C'mon

Television is not that good

They certainly beat Hot Cross. :)

[Zmev]

Zero7 - When it Falls

Ahh, gorgeous

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Brian Eno & David Byrne - My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts
Built To Spill - You In Reverse

[Zappa]

"Little Johnny Jewel" is awesome. Just like the rest of Marquee Moon, which is that good.

[Happymeal]

This morning I listened to Masada Anniversary Edition Vol. 5 - Masada Rock and it's super awesome. By far the most accessible record they've ever done.

[br3ad_man]

Stuff I have listened to today:

Cat Power - Moon Pix
Joy Electric - Robot Rock
Air - Moon Safari
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists...

[Dave de Sylvia]

I've been looking for that forever.

Classic rock? Upload? Mailing list? Plzzz?
Maybe. I'd rather make you sweat for a month or something though.

[dei]

I'm looking for that Barr album Beyond Reinforced Jewel Case again because it got deleted on accident. If anyone has it, could you send it to redmintpeel@yahoo.com (mailto:redmintpeel@yahoo.com)? Thanks.

For those of you who haven't heard of Barr, check out a song on his website: Barr (http://www.barrbarr.com/mp3.html). His stuff might sound dumb or whatever, but I think it's cool. He's amazing live.

[ATM]

I am really into Modest Mouse right now. Jesus Christ Was An Only Child is such a bitchin' song.

[liebherk]

The Receiving End of Sirens FTW.

also Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends.

[asymm]

You see, Rain Dogs was always an album that I enjoyed to a point. Somewhat eccentric and full of ideas, but I never completely latched on to it. Due to my somewhat apathetic perspective on his so-called "best" album, I took my time getting more of Tom Waits material. Then today I purchased and listened to Swordfishtrombones. After only one listen I'm already pretty enraptured by it.

[Lexxy]

recently i've been hooked on an album called 'loose in the air' by the double.
they kinda remind me of pavement - but they're a lot more experimental.

Listen to On Our Way by Double : http://www.napster.com/player/tracks/15973138

also been listening to tapes n' tapes bad *** new album. it ruuulless!!!!

Yeah, Tom Waits is great but I think he often loses the run of himself and produces very uneven material. His recent albums have been a lot more coherent.

[Little Man being Erased]

Cursive - The Ugly Organ

**** I love Cursive.

[Bukowski]

Half Japanese - Sing No Evil

This is seriously cool, jazzy post punk.


Harry Pussy - F'uck You

And this is unlistenable noise

[BillCosby]

Cursive - The Ugly Organ

**** I love Cursive.

hell yeah nukka

I'd say I was diggin' Wilco, but that's a lie, because I'm only listening to "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" over and over without finishing the album.

[Dude3]

I've been listening to Rory, Minus the Bear, Lovedrug, and Look Mexico.

[Little Man being Erased]

hell yeah nukka

I'd say I was diggin' Wilco, but that's a lie, because I'm only listening to "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" over and over without finishing the album.
Friggin' sweet *** song. I may have to listen to that album today.

[BillCosby]

You think The Love Below is solid?

[Doctor D.]

Today it's been:

Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere
Banyan - Any time at all (First Listen)
Cursive - Domestica (First Listen)
Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot(First Listen)

Cursive is all right, it's not great but it's solid. Though Banyan and Wilco are superb. Dunno why I haven;t listend to Wilco before this. I'll be kicking my head in soon enough over that fact.

[Kyle]

I think (with the exception of Skits, and that ridiculous underwear song) the Love Below is consistently good. Love Hater is such a tune.

And Doc, is that your first listen to Cursive as a band, or just that particular album. Either way, if you havn't heard The Ugly Organ yet then you should make an effort to.

[Zmev]

Gnarls Barkley - St Elsewhere

Yeah, this passes the Zmev test, very tight.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Husbands
The Fall
Betchadupa - My Army of Birds & Gulls EP

[YDload]

I've heard the expression "Betchadupa" before, what a coincidence.

[Little Man being Erased]

Betchadupa are cool.

[Zebra]

Archers of Loaf - Icky Mettle

I can't complete I forgot about this. Some of the best indie/grunge music of the early 90's.

[ATM]

People Under the Stairs
Cornelius

[Doctor D.]

And Doc, is that your first listen to Cursive as a band, or just that particular album. Either way, if you havn't heard The Ugly Organ yet then you should make an effort to.

Well, first listen to a full album. I'll give The Ugly Organ a listen.

[Daniel!]

Frank Zappa - Hot Rats

Haven't listened to this one in a while. It's still totally awsome, though.

[Little Man being Erased]

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
I Heart Hiroshima - A Three Letter Word for Candy
Elvis Costello - This Year's Model

[dei]

Domestica is a hell of a lot better than The Ugly Organ.

[Anxious]

Lots of weird Guided by Voices eps and Flaming Lips- Zaireeka.

[Zmev]

Lots of weird Guided by Voices eps and Flaming Lips- Zaireeka.

I hope you have 4 stereos

[Little Man being Erased]

Beck - Odelay

I still don't quite know how anyone could actually think this album sucks.

[dei]

So, DMD, you actually think The Ugly Organ is their best album?

[br3ad_man]

Lightning Bolt - Wonderful Rainbow
Joy Electric - Robot Rock
Interpol - Turn On the Bright Lights

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Guided By Voices - Bee Thousand
Sebadoh - III

[br3ad_man]

Tool - Lateralus

I tried listening to this again and I kind of liked it. His vocals are really grating though, I only like it when he screams.

[Bukowski]

Ghost Mice - Debt of the Dead
Frank Zappa - Apostrophe
Bouncing Souls - How I Spent My Summer Vacation
World Inferno Friendship Society - East Coast Supersound Punk Of Today
Black Flag - TV Party EP

I listened to these in bed last night. It was fun.

[dei]

You spend a lot of time in bed, fatty.

[myiaa]

Simon Bookish :cool:

[ATM]

The Eels

[Little Man being Erased]

The Ugly Organ again.

[asymm]

Sun Kil Moon - Tiny Cities
Sun Kil Moon - Ghosts of the Great Highway
Red House Painters - Ocean Beach

Mr. Kozelek is helpful for me right now.

[YDload]

The Onion AV Club has interviews up with Neko Case and Mark Kozelek, if you're interested :)

[asymm]

The Onion AV Club has interviews up with Neko Case and Mark Kozelek, if you're interested :)
Thanks man, I'll go read 'em.

[Doctor D.]

Easily.

And after listening to both of them, I'd have to agree. Should of heard Ugly Organ first.

[Kyle]

Yeah, The Ugly Organ is just far more cohesive. Domestica has great songs, but it doesn't seem to flow as nicely as TUO does.

[Dog]

Murder By Death - In Bocca Al Lupo

seems all right on first listen.

[pixiesfanyo]

Domestica is so much better than TUO it is ridiculous.

[Little Man being Erased]

Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I have Domestica on my other computer and I've never listened to it. But now that computer has some sort of problem and it won't start up. Oh what a conundrum. :(


I'm digging Bows + Arrows by the Walkmen at the moment. This is an album that I enjoy but I never really got into it all that much. And because of that I barely listen to it. "The Rat" and "Little House of Savages" are definitely awesome.

[dei]

Domestica is so much better than TUO it is ridiculous.
We have a winner.

[Zappa]

Rodan - Rusty

Good.

[EightMilesHigh]

Black Flag - Damaged

I love me some Black Flag.

[Little Man being Erased]

Jeff Buckley - Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk

Better than Grace? I'm starting to think so.

[Robert Crumb]

Grandaddy - Just Like the Fambly Cat

Oh, Grandaddy. Modesto++

[Anxious]

Flaming Lips

[Zappa]

Treasure by Cocteau Twins is still great.

[Anxious]

Treasure by Cocteau Twins is still great.
Its so beautiful, esspecially through some sort of really expensive headphones.

[Zebra]

Talk Talk - Laughing Stock

It's still an amazing piece of work regardless of how many times I've heard it.

[The Great Decay]

Jeff Buckley - Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk

Better than Grace? I'm starting to think so.

I want this album.

[Daniel!]

Hot Snakes - Suicide Invoice

I'm liking this much more the second time around.

[Kayetan]

Mount Eerie- No Flashlight and some live songs.

[JonM]

Islands - Return To The Sea (Crazy good. Hear it.)
Paul Simon - Surprise

[asymm]

The Velvet Underground - Loaded

It's movin' out day.

[JonM]

It's movin' out day.word up

[Dave de Sylvia]

Jeff Buckley - Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk

Better than Grace? I'm starting to think so.
No. :no:

[ATM]

Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West

Really diggin this.

[Doctor D.]

The Velvet Underground - Loaded

It's movin' out day.

Wow, when I was helpin' my freind move out, we listend to "The Velvet Underground and Nico" (Always forget the name....rotten drugs.)
