What I've Been Digging Lately

[br3ad_man]

I'm not so sure.
I mean...it has Bone Machine and stuff...I dunno, maybe I just need to listen to it more.

eh. I've just discoverd the greatness of that album, but Bone Machine is my very least favourite track.

[Zebra]

Sonic Youth - Dirty

This has some excellent songs such as Sugar Kane and Swimsuit Issue.

[NineBitFable]

I love you but I've Chosen Darkness
Echo and the Bunnymen- Crocodiles

Really good cds from both of these groups. I'd heard alright things about ILYBICD's cd, but I think its much better than people have said.

[EightMilesHigh]

This is the most badass ****ing album of all time.

Because you've never said that about another album before :rolleyes:

Today I was listening to Devo's Q: Are We Not Men? album. What a wicked album.

Now I will listen to.....At The Drive-In - RoC

[Happymeal]

J Dilla's Donuts, being my album of the day, made me drop by Krispy Kreme and purchase two dozens.

[Bukowski]

Pavement

It's all i listen to now, really.

[YDload]

I got the new Girl Talk album now, Night Ripper. Now I can listen to it all the damn time!

PS if you want it ask Eggo.

[Jacaranda]

New Order - Substance

I'm feeling anxious tonight and New Order isn't helping at all.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Six Organs Of Admittance - Compathia
Sunset Rubdown - Shut Up I Am Dreaming

[sr800bkBassist]

Six Organs Of Admittance - Compathia
Sunset Rubdown - Shut Up I Am Dreaming
Comapathia is delicious. so psychedelic and odd, compared to other "folk" players like Sufjan Stevens and such. we need more artists like Six Organs of Admittance.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I like the weird percussion. Close To The Sky & Run! are very catchy, too.

[br3ad_man]

I'm feeling anxious tonight and New Order isn't helping at all.

Try listening to Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen, like me.

[Kyle]

David Gilmour - On an Island

^Returned to this today for some background revision music, still great.

[pixiesfanyo]

Six Organs is the ****.

I can't wait for the new release.

[sketchyjoe]

yeah, Europe was good, but the thing it lacked was the ability to relate, since the other things they have done have been songs that anyone could play on guitar and sing and completely relate to, whereas Europe has such and exclusive story only to the band members, it seems like it lacks purpose compared to the others.
I completely agree with that.

[ghett tech]

Real Heat 'Hotgirl' (http://www.myspace.com/therealheat)

[sketchyjoe]

Michael Jordan Touchdown Pass

It's great folky pop music with all instruments played by one 15 year old kid. The music's reminiscent of stuff like Matty Pop Chart and Erin Tobey and the lyrics are a bit like Johnny Hobo & the Freight-Trains (Pat the Bunny is this guy's older brother.)

[EightMilesHigh]

Been on a bit of a Doors kick lately. I forgot how amazingly good they were, I just hadn't listened to them in a long time.

[Zebra]

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works 85-92

Still digging this a lot. AMG gave it **** for the production, which I can understand, but I think the murkiness makes it sound great. The whole album has a really weird atmosphere because of it.

Yeah, that's such a great album but I still prefer Richard D. James Album and I Care Because You Do over it. I think it's because I got those two albums before his ambient stuff so it's kind of hard to make the adjustment.

[pixiesfanyo]

Life's a bitch
And then we die
That's why we get high!


Illimatic

[Robert Crumb]

The Matty the old bit is by Chart stuff

It's great. The music and all the instruments are reminiscent of Bunny Pop. Lyrics & Freight-Trains: music's kidlike, a 15 year pass played with Touchdown folky Hobo pop. Michael guy's this older brother, Pat Jordan (like Johnny and one Erin Tobey.)

[ATM]

Pharcyde

[Zebra]

Loka - Fire Sheperds

This album was surprisingly really good. I'm really enjoying the last two tracks just because they are so funky yet ambient.

[The Great Decay]

I listened to Broken Social Scene while I was cleaning this morning, and now I'm chilling to some Cursive.

[Little Man being Erased]

Frank Sinatra
Primal Scream
Trashcan Sinatras
Orange Juice
Girl Talk
The Presets
New Order
The Futureheads
The Raveonettes

[Dog]

Half Japanese - Fire in the Sky
Neil Young - Harvest

Ahaha, nice avi. I love PBF.

[EightMilesHigh]

It's pouring rain and freezing cold, which means that's the type of weather where I pull out some Tom Waits.

Ahaha, nice avi. I love PBF.

Same here :D I wanna get a pro-skub t-shirt. I love the one where he's like "I'd sell my soul for a puppy" and then they're playing and watching the sun set, and then in the next panel he's burning in hell :lol:

Yesterday I dug Kanye West's Late Orchestration while going to a party at a friend's house. Today it's been The Black Keys' new EP (it's nifty, and I like it more than their other stuff) plus Donald Byrd's A New Perspective, which is very relaxing.

only we need it to be.. CD plays

[Dog]

ugh, none of the local music stores have The Obliterati. I just ordered off of Amazon, but I'll probably give in and download it before it arrives.

Joy Division - Unkown Pleasures
New Order - Substance
Minutemen

[Robert Crumb]

I play my CDs on my computer. My stereo has been eating CDs if I try to play them on it. ****ing thing.

Digging the new Dr. Octagon album right now this very moment, came in the mail today. It's... actually sounding fairly good. Very different from the first, but that's not surprising. I'm not sure I love it as much as the Automator's production, this is more spastic, more electro-influenced if that's possible. Makes me think of "Diesel Power," that one song Kool Keith did with Prodigy. Gonna need a few spins with this one.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I play my CDs on my computer. My stereo has been eating CDs if I try to play them on it. ****ing thing.
My cat eats CDs. So I had to stop playing them in him.

I had a long day today; I listened to:

Wildhearts - ... The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed
Therapy? - Troublegum
The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
Roadrunner United - All-Star Sessions
2Pac - All Eyes On Me
Oasis - What's The Story Morning Glory

Makes me think of "Diesel Power," that one song Kool Keith did with Prodigy. Gonna need a few spins with this one.

[Little Man being Erased]

Pulp - His 'n' Hers

Not as good as Different Class, but that's a hard one to top. Fantastic band, though.

I recently picked up their album with all of the animals on the front, it's really weird.

The Twilight Singers - Powder Burns

Dulli's kinda lost his edge by being too self-consciously epic. Still a good album though.

The women vocalist sounds sort of awkward and the music is really mythical and spacey. I don't know I can't really get into it.

[EightMilesHigh]

Garden State - OST

If the movie is as good as the music, I may have to see this.

[The Great Decay]

It is a quality movie.

I've been listening to:

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Hearts of Oak

[Little Man being Erased]

Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home
The Smiths - The Smiths

The Jeevas - 1,2,3,4
The Clash - s/t
The Congos - Heart of the Congos

[Zebra]

Aphex Twin - I Care Because You Do

This is very underated and it's almost as good as the Richard D. James Album. I can't stop listening to Come on You Slags! and Mookid.

[ATM]

Aphex Twin - I Care Because You Do

This is very underated and it's almost as good as the Richard D. James Album. I can't stop listening to Come on You Slags! and Mookid.

[Little Man being Erased]

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot


I love this album so much.

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

I watched the making of that last night. It's a pretty cool documentary.

This is Tortoise's weakest effort but it still has some really warm and "feel good" tracks.

[ATM]

Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News

Amazing.

[Iai]

Devendra Banhart - Cripple Crow

Love it more and more every time.

[Kurtz]

Elvis Costello

[asymm]

Food - Veggie

[Robert Crumb]

Young Black Teenagers - Young Black Teenagers
Gal Costa - Gal Costa
Mantronix - The Album
Herbert - Scale

I've been in a bit of an old school mood today. Young Black Teenagers is some nice late 80's stuff, solid Bomb Squad production. I've had this Mantronix album for a while, nice mid 80's electro. Raps are typical old-school, but the beats are where it's at. First experience with Gal Costa, she's the ****, too.

[Breakfast]

Depeche Mode

[Tangy zizzle]

Mudhoney - Under A Billion Suns
Giant Drag
Black Heart Procession

[EightMilesHigh]

Elvis Costello

Right on, man. I love Elvis.

Little Man's avatar made me realized I haven't listened to some Frank Sinatra in a long time, so I dug out my dad's old four disc set, "The Reprise Collection." Four discs of classic Sinatra tunes, complete with a big booklet and liner notes with a snazzy case too.

[Jacaranda]

That band is terrible. Now you probably know by now that I don't pay much attention to lyrics, so they have to be really good or really bad to get me to notice them. The ones in "Mother" are definitely the latter. And the music is just recyclec Sabbath riffs without the attitude or ingenuity that made them so great in the first place.

[asymm]

Prefuse 73 - Read the Books EP
The Decemberists - The Tain EP

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Massive Attack - Mezzanine
This album is just so ****ing cool. Man.
I was walking home in the dark tonight listening to it and it was creepy as **** but I loved it.
I really need to check out their other stuff (I'll get Blue Lines or whatever soon)

They aren't anything new or ground breaking thats for sure but I wouldn't call them terrible. They are just fun which is why I like and listen to them.

XTC - Black Sea Fantastic. That about sums it up.

[Little Man being Erased]

Picked up these two today:

Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

On first listen it certainly lives up to praise that's been given to it around here and elsewhere. Really cool ****.

Frank Sinatra - Songs for Swingin' Lovers

'nuff said.

[NineBitFable]

it's an OK Computer day!

[Robert Crumb]

The Reverend Al Green.

Stereolab - Emperor Tomato Ketchup This makes me feel happy.
Girl Talk - Night Ripper Mash up masterrrr.
Sufjan Stevens - A Sun Came more synthbased. sounds nothing like Illinois
Gang Gang Dance - God's Money <3 egypto-dance music. really good.

[The Great Decay]

Okkervil River - Down The River of Golden Dreams

I really like this record.

[Anxious]

Flipper
Sun City Girls
Husker Du

[Zebra]

Beck - Mutations

This kicks the **** out of Sea Change.

[Bartender]

EDIT: that it does.

Jools Holland has a good-looking lineup this week. David Gilmour, Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Crosby and Nash, the Streets.. Has just started though, so I suppose it could all turn out badly. I turned on halfway through a Gilmour track, which sounded great; might have to think about getting On An Island after all.

Last week's was good, too.

[Dave de Sylvia]

**** I must tape that..

[Bartender]

There's at least one other guy there, but he's Brazilian and I have no idea how to spell his name.

[EightMilesHigh]

David Gilmour? :eek:
Paul Simon? :eek:
Elvis Costello? :eek:

Story of the Year - Page Avenue

[Mr Observations]

Nonsense, Flipper are great.

I'm digging a band called Alice Donut. Kinda similar to some Butthole Surfers stuff, or as similar as is possible to that crazy band.

[BillCosby]

The Velvet Teen - Out Of The Fierce Parade sort of. Some songs are kinda meh. Some songs are great though.

[Daniel!]

Over the past few days:

Alice Donut rule.

[Mr Observations]

The Pop Group - Y
Unwound - Repetition

If the world was a better place, everyone would know and love these bands.

Mission of Burma - The Obliterati

Solid.


Alice Donut rule.

Indeed they do.

I'll have to pick up The Obliterati soon.

[sr800bkBassist]

I've been getting into My Bloody Valentine, I just got Loveless, and I really like it.
great great great band.
try to find Ecstacy and Wine, it's not as popular as Loveless or Isn't Anything(which isn't that good compared to their other stuff) but it's a great CD. the songs "Never Say Goodbye" and "Strawberry Wine"(both on Ecstacy and Wine) are too undernoticed for how great they are.

[Bukowski]

Flipper are a great band.

Slint - Spiderland
Red House Painters - Ocean Beach
Victim's Family - White Bread Blues

anyone that likes bands like the Minutemen and NoMeansNo should really check out Victims Family.

[ATM]

Did anyone catch Peeping Tom on Conan last night?

It was sweet.

Anyhow, I've been diggin' tons of hip hop lately, but more specifically anything MF Doom touches.

[Zappa]

Siouxsie & the Banshees - Kaleidoscope

Was itching for some post-punk tonight, so I did some soul-seeking. This was the first to download, and it's quite good.

[BillCosby]

Chisel - 8A.M All Day

[zabbit82]

At The Drive-In - Relationship of Command, In/Casino/Out
Radiohead - The Bends, OK Computer
Joe Bonamassa - You and Me
Mr. Bungle - California

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Venetian Snares - The Chocolate Wheelchair Album
Sonic Youth - Rather Ripped

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm gonna join in the praise;

The Obliterati is brilliant.

Nacho, remember when noone listened to Mission of Burma around here?

[br3ad_man]

I remember. Nacho and you whored them a whole lot.

[YDload]

"Celebrated Summer" might be Husker Du's best song. It's hard to imagine that they make 'em better than that.

Jeff Mangum - Live at Aquarius Records

For like the third separate time.

Damm skippy. We had good reason too. You dig them right? You need to hear this record if you do man, best thing they've done IMO.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah, I dig. I'm looking forward to hearing this.

[dwass5656]

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!!!!



tapes n' tapes ne album is great, I will take a listen to the link and see if I like it, I like Pavement sort of so I bet I will like it, thanks!

[Kyle]

Acid Bath
Nebula
Alice in Chains
Belle and Sebastien - haha, so out of place.

[EightMilesHigh]

"Celebrated Summer" might be Husker Du's best song. It's hard to imagine that they make 'em better than that.

Celebrated Summer and New Day Rising are my two favorites.

[Little Man being Erased]

Frank Sinatra - Songs for Swingin' Lovers!
Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere
Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever
You Am I - #4 Record

[randomthought9]

great great great band.
try to find Ecstacy and Wine, it's not as popular as Loveless or Isn't Anything(which isn't that good compared to their other stuff) but it's a great CD. the songs "Never Say Goodbye" and "Strawberry Wine"(both on Ecstacy and Wine) are too undernoticed for how great they are.

I'll do that. :thumb:

[asymm]

At work (Hollywood Video), we play this DVD with trailers and such. Well, on there are a couple of eMusic commercials that are very nice. http://www.emusic.com/features/commercial.html So, I suppose I'm digging those because I've seen them about 50 times each, but still enjoy them.

And also,
A.C. Newman - The Slow Wonder
Raoul Björkenheim / Ingebrigt Håker Flaten / Paal Nilssen-Love - Scorch Trio

[moosepirate]

The Decemberists-Castaways and Cutouts

Although Meloy's voice bugs me at times, this is pretty solid. I like the accordion; its not something you hear too much in non-polka.

[FA]

Is last.fm temporarly offline?

[FA]

Devendra Banhart - Nino Rojo
Iron & Wine - The Creek Drank the Cradle
Nick Drake - Pink Moon
Cat Stevens - Classics
Animal Collective - Feels
Antony and the Johnsons - I Am A Bird Now

[Little Man being Erased]

It seems to be having a few problems.

[FA]

Nacho...don't do me like that. No but seriously, Pom Tetty rules.

[FA]

I hate the RHCP...but everyone here at A7I seems to lub em. I guess they are alternative..

[br3ad_man]

Peeping Tom got posted on myspace in it's entirety. So I've been digging that. I also had a sweet conversation about Radiohead, Elliott Smith, Interpol and Alfred Hitchcock with my English Extension teacher this afternoon, so I'll probably dig something out of that group later tonight.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Adam Green - Jacket Full Of Danger
The Flaming Lips - At War With The Mystics
Venetian Snares - The Chocolate Wheelchair Album

[talk show host]

"Celebrated Summer" might be Husker Du's best song. It's hard to imagine that they make 'em better than that.

Celebrated Summer is easily my favourite of theirs.

I've been listening to a lot of CCR and Silver Jews today.

Apparently, I'm a suscriber now. Pretty much an all 90's lineup except for the top two. And the bottom two. And Sway.

[Dave de Sylvia]

What do you think of Sway?

[Robert Crumb]

Sway's ok. Better than most of these weak *** British MCs.

Opinion stands. But most of the beats are kinda boring.

[JonM]

I'm probably not going to get a satisfying last.fm list until I'm back at school, because I barely listen to music on my computer at home. I haven't been digging anything lately. I'm listening mostly to bad music and deleting it.

[Zappa]

The Slits - Cut

I've been wanting to hear this for quite awhile, and I finally thought to try soul-seeking it again the other day. I found it, and it's very awesome. Post-punk reggae by chicks.

[Scuba_Steve]

Folk punk of all types.



and Porcupine Tree

[Zappa]

I just got Colossal Youth by Young Marble Giants. This is really cool. It is very sparse music that manages to simultaneously be very dark and very bouncy. The group has a female vocalist who is accompanied at various points by bass guitar, drum machines, keys, and guitars that sort of roll along.

AFI - Decemberunderground

[Little Man being Erased]

What's that new AFI album like?



I'm digging Butch Walker - Letters right at this very moment. :cool:

[ATM]

My dad and I just watched some awesome music videos on YouTube.

We watched stuff by:

Captain Beefheart
Atomic Rooster
Winger
Ratt
Grand Funk Railroad
Devo
Can
MC5
Molly Hatchet
Blackfoot
Trio
Markoolio
Bonzo Dog Band
Electric Prunes
Van Halen

It was fun :-D

Good lad :cool:

The new AFI is different. It's more MCR than the last one, but I'm really starting to dig the electronic stuff. There's a couple of duff tunes on it, but overall I think it's a good listen.

Winger
Ratt
:eek:

Actually Ratt were OK when they first broke. You should look up the early Motley Crue videos; they're awesome. The early days of MTV was the best for videos; Duran Duran, all that.

hmmm, sounds too risky for a purchase. I might d/l some **** from it and go from there.

[EightMilesHigh]

Early music videos are awesome.

And I've actually been getting into old Elvis Presley lately, too. My dad's a fan of all the old country/rockabilly stuff like Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Hank Williams, etc., so it's the stuff I heard growing up.

Anyway, post-dinner diggings:
Urge Overkill
Meat Loaf
The Verve

I figured as much :p I mean the videos are awesome.

smoking in the boys room by the crue is pretty badass

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yeah, that was right before they went from androgynous to full-on faggot. It sad to see them grow up so fast :(

[Zappa]

I thought this Liliput band (more girl punk) would be really awesome. I downloaded their complete output, and the first disc is pretty typical and not very good. I have read that the second disc is better, though.

Tangerine Dream while stoned.

[Zappa]

The Pastels should have hired someone who could sing.

[Little Man being Erased]

Gnarls Barkley, The Faint, and Tom Petty.

[Zappa]

Morphine is dope, and somehow they speak to high-schoolers fairly well.

I have been listening to Odyshape by the Raincoats. This continues the trend that perceptive WHYBDL thread readers have noticed I've been on. Downloaded a ton of chick-powered post-punk the last couple days. This is a very strange album, but it's also neat. It kind of reminds me of a more abrasive Moondog.

Girl Talk is a good idea :)

[Little Man being Erased]

Girl Talk is rad.


Zappa, you might like The Organ. They're a chick band with post-punk tinges. Very Smiths/Cure influenced.

[Kurtz]

The Chemical Brothers

ohh yes

[dwass5656]

i've really been enjoying the latest from isobel campbell & mark lanegan. it's called ballad of the broken seas - they're sound is very beauty meets beast. i can't stop singing 'do you wanna'!! i love it!!!!

Listen to (Do You Wanna) Come Walk With Me? (Album Version) by Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan : http://www.napster.com/player/tracks/16609592




I have been "digging" Isobel Campbell and Mark Lanegan too (the link), it is more because of my girlfriend than me digging it, she won't stop playing it, what is it with you women and this? (I assume Lexxy you are a woman) Anyway....

[Insert Name Here]

The Chemical Brothers

ohh yes

What cd, I want to get one, don't know which one to get.

[Zmev]

Get Dig Your Own Hole.

[BillCosby]

Murder City Devils - Broken Bottles, Empty Hearts
Dizzee Rascal - Boy In Da Corner

[Kurtz]

What cd, I want to get one, don't know which one to get.
First get Dig Your Own Hole.

Then get Push the Button.

I've been listening to their self-titled off and on for the last couple of weeks. The song "Life on the Line" is one of my favorite things right now.

[Dog]

I've been meaning to check out Odyshape for a while now. Their s/t is good.

Kate Bush - Hounds of Love

This is some of the best rap music I've heard in quite some time.

^Good man. Evolution Fight is the ****. I think I'll listen to it now.


Today I dug a whole lot of Flaming Lips and that's pretty much it.

[pixiesfanyo]

Did you guys get turned on to Evolution Fight by me.. or through your own devices?

Because I've been whoring that album for nearly a year now.

http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?reviewid=6125

[Zebra]

It was your review that basically got me into them.

[Tangy zizzle]

Betchadupa - Aiming at your head
The Drones - Here Come the Lies
Neil Young - On the beach
Black Flag - Wasted again

[pixiesfanyo]

All are solid releases, the Mark Hollis is a little dissapointing in comparsion to the work with Talk Talk though.

[ATM]

Dinosaur Jr. - Dinosaur
the Presidents of the United States of America - II

The first three tracks are awesome, the rest is pretty much meh.

[Interstate]

Today:

Explosions In The Sky - The Rescue

Now listening to Scarface - The Fix - after only hearing The Diary this is a shock to the system, alot more R'n'B. Seems okay so far though.

[bumblebeebass]
