What I've Been Digging Lately

[Bukowski]

Black Flag - First Four Years
Les Savy Fav - 3/5
90 Day Men - Panda Park

[Bukowski]

Butthole Surfers

It's amazing that the same band can make songs as poppy and brilliantly catchy as Ah Ha, Pepper or TV Star and make songs as abrasive and brilliantly disjointed as 22 Going on 23, Graveyard or The Shah Sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave.

Word. 22 Going on 23 freaks me out every time.

[Greg Ginn]

THe call at the start of that was made by a woman who always rings up that radio station telling lies.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Black Dice - Broken Ear Record

[asymm]

Boxcutter - Oneiric

[pixiesfanyo]

King Crimson - Three of A Perfect Pair
The Mars Volta - Amputechture

All enjoyable.

[Little Man being Erased]

[Ornery Cephalopod]

[Kyle]

Jurassic 5 - Power in Number

^This is fast becoming one of my favorite Hip Hop albums ever. I'm liking Fishscale aswell Pixies, sounds great.

Other diggage;
Alice in Chains - Facelift
Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley
Muse - BH&R

[Anxious]

The Doors- st

The Crystal Ship, Alabama Song, End of the Night, and The End are perfect songs. They exemplify perfection.

[YDload]

A rare bit of mx being online allows me to say hi everyone :)

There's a new Mastodon song up on their myspace called "Crystal Skull." Sounds really tight. I got one of the new Mars Volta songs as well, but unfortunately it was just the intro track "A Vicarious Atonement." Not that it's necessarily BAD, but it doesn't tell me anything about the new album. It's like an extended "Son Et Lumiere" with neater guitar parts. Oh well I guess I wait a little longer.

[JonM]

I've been digging Ziggy Marley's new album. I think it's really great. I don't want to overstate it, but I want it to get the hype it deserves, too.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I've been digging Amputechture by The Mars Volta, Tetragrammaton and Meccamputechture give me orgasms

[3rdplanet]

Kavinsky's Teddy Boy EP got me in the mood for some 80s classics, so I've been spinning that along side Human League's 'Don't You Want Me' and 'She's Like The Wind'.

And Owls.

[ATM]

Harry and the Potters - Voldemort Cant Stop the Rock
Rollerskate Skinny - Horsedrawn Wishes
God Is An Astronaut - The End of the Beginning
Failure - Fantastic Planet

[br3ad_man]

I Would Set Myself On Fire For You - Believes in Patterns

Why have people getting so excited over this? This is really really pretentious, and whats more it can't even pull it off due to the mediocrity being blasted into our ears. FAIL.

I heard one song from that band and I thought it was ok. I think it was from the s/t though. Do you normally like emo stuff?

Dig;

Calexico - Feast of Wire
Magazine - Real Life
Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary
Neil Young - Prarie Wind
Beck - Sea Change
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - B Sides and Rarities

I listened to a lot today.

[Tangy zizzle]

No, I don't really.

[Tangy zizzle]

Considering this place will no doubt, in the next few days, stay as ****ed as it has been for the past few, and considering you all need to know what I'm listening to, I'll hook a brothahhh up.

My planned listening for the next few days.

The Bronx - II
These Arms Are Snakes - Oxeneers...
Comets on Fire - Avatar
Comets on Fire - Field Recordings from the Sun
Air - 10,000hz legend
Cat Power - You Are Free
Stooges - Metallic K.O
The Wipers - Is This Real?
The Wipers - Youth of America
Boss - Born to Run

[pixiesfanyo]

No, I don't really.

Have you heard Witness by Modern Life Is War?

Seems like the kind of hardcore you'd enjoy.. maybe.

[asymm]

White Whale - WWI
The track on Merge's site is quite nice. I'll give the full length a listen sometime. Oh yeah - and excellent cover as well.

Autechre - Tri Repetae++

[Tangy zizzle]

Have you heard Witness by Modern Life Is War?

Seems like the kind of hardcore you'd enjoy.. maybe.

I do enjoy some hardcore, and derivatives from it ie. BTBAM

[pixiesfanyo]

MLIW is just kind of.. we're ****ing men, hardcore.

Lots of people rate it as being the "best" recent hardcore album. Just listen to it I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

[EightMilesHigh]

Modern Life Is War are pretty intense. They make Converge look like Senses Fail.

(lame comparison, i know)

[pixiesfanyo]

i'd have to say Jerome's Dream is the heaviest hardcore band i've ever encounter. just because when i listen to them at full loudness on my ipod headphones. the things break.

[Tangy zizzle]

MLIW is just kind of.. we're ****ing men, hardcore.


Doesn't matter what way I force myself to read that, it doesn't sound appealing. Tough guy hardcore? The whole deal smacks of supressed homo-eroticism, makes me hate my ears, hands and eyes (or anything that comes into contact with the stuff).

Yeah it's not like that though.

It's.. hard to explain. I would never listen to stuff that's like "You're in my crew/We bleed together". It's basically really really depressing but incrediblely heavy. Just give it a try.

[Happymeal]

About one the two new clips on Kayo Dot's myspace.. I can only hope that it's Mia on vocals <3

And it is!

[br3ad_man]

Yeah it's not like that though.

It still sounds like tuff guy but it's not boring or lame. I think Tangy would dig.

ELAINE: Ga-ga? When did that happen?

JERRY: Yesterday. Six-ish.

[YDload]

I think a good dessert would be the Sunny Day Real Estate "Seven"-Layer Cake.

"You'll taste it, you'll taste it... and it will be delicious!"

Also, I've almost finished learning the basslines to "Repulsion" and "The Wagon" by Dinosaur Jr. Gotta do it by ear since there are no tabs, and it's pretty rewarding I'd say.

[Little Man being Erased]

Gorillaz - Demon Days
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus

I started to have an "albums that have cases that can never possibly fit in my CD racks day" today.

Also:

AFI - Decemberunderground
Sonic Youth - Goo

[Luxor]

new i heart hiroshima? i wanna hear

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, they've got a new EP (even though it's not meant to be out until Saturday). You could probably order it from http://www.rockinghorse.net/index.php or https://www.jbhifionline.com.au/ (It's cheap).

And you can hear one of the new songs on the myspace thingy.

[Interstate]

Today:

DCFC - The John Byrd EP
Orange Goblin - Coupe De Grace

[YDload]

Hey everyone, glad to be back... for now.

Anyway, I finally got the Nomeansno album Wrong in its entirety and it's really ****ing good! Thanks again Zappa for introducing me :)

[Happymeal]

Make Believe - Shock of Being
the new Bronx album

After hearing the whole album, The Bronx pretty much blew away my expectations of it. "Three Dead Sisters" kind of sounds like a Hot Snakes song. hmm..

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm listening to a whole buch of stuff I'll be catching at Splendour next weekend.

DJ Shadow
Sonic Youth
Beach Boys
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
The Presets
You Am I
Death Cab for Cutie

And I'm even giving TV on the Radio and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah another chance. No luck so far though.

[Jawaharal]

The new Tv on The Radio is awesome. I dig alot.

[The Jungler]

I'm starting to listen to Amon Tobin, he's some Jungle music guy. Very dark.

[Syncratic]

I really like Jaga Jazzist. Really, really like.

[nutty_bar]

I am on an "Islands" kick myself. The two frontmen of the Unicorns trio. Great stuff.

[pixiesfanyo]

The new Tv on The Radio is awesome. I dig alot.

No it isn't.

[Jawaharal]

No it isn't.
what the fudge are you talking about negro? It rules.

[pixiesfanyo]

It's terriblely boring.

I'm guessing you like everything Pitchfork likes Cheeto?

[Little Man being Erased]

TV on the Radio are really nothing special or even at all interesting.

[Jawaharal]

It's terriblely boring.

I'm guessing you like everything Pitchfork likes Cheeto?
I didn't even get introduced to Tv On The Radio through Pitchfork. My friends gave it to me.

[YDload]

TV On the Radio is special, but it's up to your personal taste to decide if they're interesting or not.

Anyway I finally came to my senses and realized how awesome the song "River Euphrates" is. At first I didn't like it that much because it was too disturbing, but I've stopped being a pussy and learned to enjoy it :)

[Jawaharal]

k so I guess I should stop listening to crappy ol' Tv on the radio =(

Now its time for Frog Eyes and Minutemen.

[YDload]

Well you know how it is with the Pixies. You get your muffled screams here and there, it's a nice way to add some complexity to the group.

Anyway, I've heard of Cows and Owls but never Bats. Do these groups sound anything alike?

[Jawaharal]

They're all pretty different from each other.

[sr800bkBassist]

i got some CD by TV on the Radio a while back called OK Calculator. worst crap i've ever heard. is it really them? doesn't sound like the cool electronic jazzy indie stuff i remember their other stuff to be.

[sr800bkBassist]

I think it's their first demos or something that they didn't intend for release? Something like that.

Ween - The Mollusk

This gets better each time. Started out as "crap", and is now "wow not that bad at all". However "The Blarney Stone" is still unlistenable.
if i were them, i wouldn't intend it to be released either. i'd probably kill myself along with everyone who encouraged me to record it.

[Robert Crumb]

TV on the Radio is good. Latest album is good. Old album is good. Still waiting for something great. Never heard the OK Calculator ****. Wouldn't be surprised if it sucked.

Diggin' some Gal Costa at the moment. Trying to decide on what to play next, something that runs around a half hour long.

[Tangy zizzle]

Make Believe - Shock of Being
the new Bronx album

After hearing the whole album, The Bronx pretty much blew away my expectations of it. "Three Dead Sisters" kind of sounds like a Hot Snakes song. hmm..

Told ya'll. Everyone whos heard it has a hard on for it, it's a beautiful thing.

[Tangy zizzle]

Good song. Disturbing how?

Anyway, everyone should listen to the Bats.

They're a decent band. Pretty boring live but.

[Tangy zizzle]

Oh yeah, Nacho - I listened to some of that White Whale record the other night. It seemed decent, kinda odd aswell.

[Tangy zizzle]

Who would you liken them to? There's a get up kid in the band right?

[Tangy zizzle]

That's kinda what I thought. Like a guitar-Decemberists.

[Activista anti-MTV]

So this "dig" isn't literal...[fifth amendment]...got to go

[thefevafortheflava]

Ok first post, so I don't know if anybodys mentioned this yet but I just downloaded the first Solo album by Thom Yorke and it's pretty good... Although it's a little lacking if you go into it expecting it to be a new Radiohead release... I think you have to look at it as more of an unplugged Thom acoustic cd of sorts.. All in all good album.

Also lately I've been listening to
The Eels
Sigur Ros
Iron and Wine
Damien Rice
and a lot of random acoustic cover songs from and by various artists

[Tangy zizzle]

BORING.

Kill, kill kill for peace.

[thefevafortheflava]

BORING.

Kill, kill kill for peace.

What? was that directed at my post? That post wasn't very specific.

[Tangy zizzle]

Oh dear, we must rectify this horrible, horrible occurance. I might have to miss church to sort this out.

[thefevafortheflava]

Oh dear, we must rectify this horrible, horrible occurance. I might have to miss church to sort this out.

Way to pointlessly flame the new guy.

[Tangy zizzle]

Hi, I'm misser Tangy, I'll be your waitress.

[thefevafortheflava]

Hi, I'm misser Tangy, I'll be your waitress.

Whatever that means

[br3ad_man]

River Euphrates

That's my favourite song from that album. The melody is sooo good.

TV on the Radio is good. Latest album is good. Old album is good. Still waiting for something great. Never heard the OK Calculator ****. Wouldn't be surprised if it sucked.

123

I'm digging Bakesale by Sebadoh and Young Team by Mogwai. I'm going to start getting into Splendour bands now.

[Interstate]

Dizzee Rascal - Boy In Da Corner

[br3ad_man]

The new Bronx, it's up on myspace. It totally slays. Shitty Future would be in my top 5 songs of the year.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Man, the new Justin Timberlake song is catchy. Please shoot me now

[JonM]

Hey I have speakers now, so I can listen to music on my computer. Here is my week:

1 Bob Marley & The Wailers 91
2 Sister Carol 33
3 Judy Mowatt 25
4 Peter Tosh 22
5 Devendra Banhart 18
5 Culture 18
7 Ziggy Marley 14
7 Andrew Bird 14
9 Burning Spear 13
10 Abdel Wright 12

[Interstate]

Great album.

I'm still all about Ween.

It is rather good. Showtime isn't too shabby either. Can't wait for his next record (whenever that is).

Digs:

Mobb Deep - Blood Money
Mobb Deep - The Infamous - These two albums are so unlike each other it's untrue.
Onyx - All We Got Iz Us
The Revolutionary Hydra - Swiss Admiral EP

[Dave de Sylvia]

Listening to the new JT and Christina songs for the first time and some albums:

Butch Walker - The Rise & Fall of Butch Walker & the Let's-Go-Out-Tonites
David Bowie - The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders From Mars
Gin Blossoms - New Miserable Experience

[Little Man being Erased]

You listened to those two albums just so you could post them one after the other like that, didn't you?

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yes.

[Interstate]

Showtime is even better than BITC. I love Dizzee Rascal.

I dunno, I seem to warm to BITC more. It's seems more raw. Mills was only 18/19 when he made it and produced it himself. Crazy stuff.

[Robert Crumb]

Dilla and Dennis Wilson.

[ATM]

Stephen Malkmus - Face the Truth

[Little Man being Erased]

The White Stripes - White Blood Cells

Good times.

[Daniel!]

Gogol Bordello - Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike

I haven't listened to this for a few months and it's much better than I remember it.

[Little Man being Erased]

The D4 - 6Twenty

Tood gimes.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

This Is Your Captain Speaking - Storyboard
Wire - Pink Flag

[sketchyjoe]

Dead Kennedys - Plastic Surgery Disasters
A complete classic. Moon Over Marin gets better each time I hear it.

Ted Leo - Tell Balgeary, Balgury is Dead
I love the solo version of The High Party and Bleeding Powers is just awesome.

Jimi Hendrix - Axis: Bold as Love
It's Jimi.

[Happymeal]

Koenjihyakkei - Angherr Shisspa (another band of Ruins' drummer guy)
Boredoms - Vision Creation Newsun
Gigantic Brain - The Invasion Discography (good times)

All of those make for a mind****-lite day.

[Matt?]

2/3 great albums. I hate Butch Walker.

The Wrens - Meadowlands

I've been warming to this a lot; there's really not much to dislike about it. Well-played, hook-filled indie rock with energy. I regret not paying attention to them at Intonation last year.
i didn't like them at first either but then i just got hooked to something about it.

i'm not even sure what

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

hmm, the new wolf eyes album
it's quite scary

[Dave de Sylvia]

2/3 great albums. I hate Butch Walker.
No you don't.

[Storm In A Teacup]

Lately I've been into "The Unraveling" and "The Sufferer and the Witness" by Rise Against, "All That Remains" from Fozzy, and the Coheed & Cambria record, "Second Stage Turbine Blade"

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

i'm really really digging cult of luna. eee

[br3ad_man]

I was this week too. Cult of Luna are awesome.

My friend dropped me home from school today and we were listening to the radio in her car. I told her I would make her a tape so she doesn't have to listen to the radio all the time. She listens to music like Motion City Soundtrack, The Cure and Kings of Leon. Any suggestions for what to put on it? I'm thinking some Belle & Sebastian, The Smiths and Beck so far.

[Interstate]

Method Man & Redman - Blackout!
Redman - Muddy Waters - This gets better everytime I listen to it.

[Kyle]

Bedouin Soundclash - Just got their Cd back from a friend, it's so much better when the weather is good.

[ATM]

Electric Wizard - s/t
The Pharcyde - Labcabincalifornia
Cramps - Smell Of Female
Earth - Earth2

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

giveittomegiveittomegiveittomegiveittomegiveittome ...

i love it.
i can't believe i used to not like them at all

[Robert Crumb]

Leon Ware, Morita Doji and John Cale. Brian Eno a little earlier, too. Leon Ware is a soul dude, produced some solid Motown compositions. Morita Doji was a 70's psychedelic folk artist with a very pretty voice. John Cale, you all know him. Digging Fear, which is easily the best of his solo work I've heard, one of those understated precursors to '77. "Fear is a Man's Best Friend" will open my radio show next week. I think Eno helped out with the album.

Method Man & Redman - Blackout!


One of my favorite summer albums. \m/

[BillCosby]

2/3 great albums. I hate Butch Walker.

I thought I did too, but I like the songs I've heard from that album.

I haven't been home much, and usually when I am I just have my music library on shuffle.

But at the moment I am diggin:
!!! - Louden Up Now

[Matt?]

scarface so much. such awesome rhymes.

[sketchyjoe]

Fleshies - The Sicilian, Kill The Dreamer's Dream
A Radio With Guts - Acoustic Series (Great sweet indie reminiscent of pop-punk and Ted Leo)

[sr800bkBassist]

Bedouin Soundclash - Just got their Cd back from a friend, it's so much better when the weather is good.
ew, i saw them open for the Flaming Lips.

it's just like generic white college guy reggae but with a few FX thrown in.

[br3ad_man]

Orange Juice, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Knapsack

those came to mind for some reason

I've never heard any of those bands (though I'm way overdue to hear Orange Juice), can you tell me some songs?

[sr800bkBassist]

i'm surprised you haven't heard BJM.

[br3ad_man]

I've never bothered because they were in that movie with The Dandy Warhols (which I haven't seen) and I hate The Dandy Warhols.

[sr800bkBassist]

yeah, that's a deffinite turn-off.

well, they're not bad. very Britpoppy. i haven't gotten that much into them but one of my friends likes them a lot so everytime i'm in her car i hear them. i like this one song a lot, i think it's called Lantern.

[Robert Crumb]

Got my hands on the Mountain Goats leak. Yessssssssss. I can't listen to it now, though. Pre-emptive diggage.

[BillCosby]

Busta Rhymes - The Big Bang
Bun - I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT COMMERCIAL SHIIIIIT !!!!!

[Matt?]

I've never bothered because they were in that movie with The Dandy Warhols (which I haven't seen) and I hate The Dandy Warhols.
if you watched the movie it makes the dandy warhols off to be complete assholes while it makes the bjm look pretty cool for keeping their integrity.

all in all they are alright

[br3ad_man]

Yeah, I gathered that from reading Buddyhead.

Song of the week: Third Eye Blind - "Semi-Charmed Life". I should watch the Nacho version again.

[sr800bkBassist]

Yeah, I gathered that from reading Buddyhead.

Song of the week: Third Eye Blind - "Semi-Charmed Life". I should watch the Nacho version again.
:lol:
i love what Buddyhead has to say about the Dandy Warhols, as well as every other bad band ever.

[ATM]

I like one Dandy Warhols album a lot, but the rest of their stuff sucks.

[Zebra]

^Kickin' list. Especially Jesus Lizard, The Cows and the Butthole Surfers.

Brian Eno - Here Come the Warm Jets

[pixiesfanyo]

Not really a kickin' list.

More like I'm Indier Than Thou list.

[pixiesfanyo]

More like I'm Indier Than Thou list.

rebuttal.

[pixiesfanyo]

Nah. I guess just looking at your list and being heavily reminded of Pitchfork is off putting, because it seems like things are just thrown on their to be obscure and then things are just thrown on their to pretend you are diverse.

[asymm]

Yeah, the list seems pretty good and definitely looks like a Nacho created list. I'm not sure how you managed to create such a gigantic list without going crazy over the details. I've abandoned list-making because of that and a few other reasons. Oh - good call on GBV & RHP being so high. But not enough Sonic Youth.

Recently I've been too busy for much diggage:
Roxy Music - Avalon
Thom Yorke - The Eraser

[BringHomeTheBacon]

Elliott Smith- Roman Candle
Not sure if this is Elliott's best album but "Last Call" is definitely his best song.

Also my 2 favorite 2006 releases-
Mogwai- Mr. Beast
Thom Yorke- The Eraser

[NineBitFable]

Love seeing Seam in that list... great band that really doesnt get enough recognition. I've been digging MBV Loveless and Q and not U lately.

[Robert Crumb]

Nice list. It has personality.

Listening to Yo La Tengo, might end up seeing them in August. Should be awesome. Also, Mountain Goats album is solid, at least as good as the last one. Probably better. Respect Darnielle.

[Kyle]

If there's no Creed, it's because I don't like Creed.Haha, that made ma laugh.

It's hot today, so been diggin' some Black Uhuru.

[Electrocution]

Lootpack, Quasimoto, Devendra Banhart, downloading some Vashti Bunyan, so I'm pretty pumped for that.

[sketchyjoe]

Johnny Cash - American V
Toots and the Maytals

[asymm]

Depeche Mode - Violator

[asymm]

The The - Infected

[br3ad_man]

I'm making that tape for my friend, so I've been listening to Blackalicious, The Smiths, Fugazi and the Beastie Boys. I'm wondering if I should throw a Locust song on there. Probably not.

[Bartender]

Hound Dog Taylor - Hound Dog Taylor and Houserockers

Only my first listen to this, but it sounds pretty good. Once you get past that one rhythm that all blues songs, ever, have.

Also developing a serious addiction to Carole King - Where You Lead and Connie Francis - I Will Wait For You. Most of the other stuff I've listened to recently has just been re-digging old stuff that I can't be bothered recounting.

[Anxious]

I'm making that tape for my friend, so I've been listening to Blackalicious, The Smiths, Fugazi and the Beastie Boys. I'm wondering if I should throw a Locust song on there. Probably not.
Do it. But make sure its one of their 20 second ones, that'll throw em off.

[Robert Crumb]

the Free Design - Kites Are Fun

I want to put a Free Design song on a mix and I want it to make someone really happy.

[EightMilesHigh]

Elliott Smith - Roman Candle

[Matt?]

I'm making that tape for my friend, so I've been listening to Blackalicious, The Smiths, Fugazi and the Beastie Boys. I'm wondering if I should throw a Locust song on there. Probably not.
it certainly wouldn't make for a "good" mix.

[YDload]

"Star Sign" by Teenage Fanclub is a pretty good song, I suppose.

[Phallus Dei]

Definitely check out Peggy Suicide and World Shut Your Mouth if you haven't.

[bucket]

Mew- Frengers

Anyone want to reccommend another great Mew album?

[el doctor]

The Format - Dog Problems

Really fun album.

[Jacaranda]

That was pretty meh worthy. I actually usually like the Killers because they are fun and catchy and that song was neither, really.

[asymm]

Yeah, it's not bad. It's a solid pop song, but it's not a giant revelation beyond their debut. At the same time though, it is obvious they attempted to change and hone their sound which is refreshing for a band with such fame.

[Robert Crumb]

Lupe Fiasco - Food and Liquor

This needs to come out proper like in a hurry. Was skeptical/needlessly critical at first, but this is so good, a perfect summer hip-hop album. Leak is at least as good, if not better than Fishscale.

[sr800bkBassist]

www.myspace.com/thekillers

ok you guys have to tell me what you think of the new song, because I like it way too much for it to be the Killers.
wow. i must admit, it's a huge improvement. unfortunately the singer still can't hit more than 3 notes in one song though.

and what in the world?? they have beards and long hair now!

[Zebra]

Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells

This is the only Oldfield album that I still listen to, but it's excellent.

[BillCosby]

The Mars Volta - Amputechture
The Lawrence Arms - Oh! Calcutta!
Off Minor - The Heat Death Of The Universe

[Sepstrup]

Tom Waits - Mule Variations and Alice

My two new Waits album (I bought Blue Valentine as well, but haven't listened to it as much. I now find it easier to get into the albums, where he sings like a demon). Mule Variations is obviously the superior album, but they're both great.

[The Great Decay]

I'm pumped to see the Mountain Goats this summer. Great songwriter.

What would be a good album to get into these guys?

[sr800bkBassist]

Check out Tallahassee or Protein Source of the Future Now!

Prince - Purple Rain

Prince is the ultimate wackjob in the mainstream. Nobody's ever been as popular as him and still as weird as him. No one I can think of at least.
the Beatles got really weird once they started taking LSD

[sr800bkBassist]

colorful clothes < assless pants
John Lennon got a handjob from their gay manager because he wanted to see what being gay was like.

that > assless pants

[Little Man being Erased]

Prince is the ultimate wackjob in the mainstream. Nobody's ever been as popular as him and still as weird as him. No one I can think of at least.
Wacko Jacko.

Although, he's not exactly all that popular anymore.


Television - Marquee Moon
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism
Sons and Daughters - The Repulsion Box
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever to Tell
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs

Death Cab and YYY's because I'm seeing them at Splendour in the Grass this weekend and the rest because they're awesome as ****.

[sketchyjoe]

Santana - Abraxas

[Anxious]

I hate Santana so much. Its probably groundless and I can probably trace it back to my troubled childhood, but I perfer not too if you don't mind.

[Jawaharal]

I saw Prince live for free once. :cool:

I got Witness today on cd. I dig.

[ATM]

Spirit Caravan - Elusive Truth
Cut Chemist - The Audience's Listening
Nekromantix - Curse Of the Coffin
Sleep - Volume 2 EP
Cramps - The Smell of Female

[asdf]

The first CD I ever owned was given to me by someone I don't even know, and it was Sly and the Family Stone. I don't think I've listened to it since then.

[Well_Respected_Man]

Autechre makes nice cold ambeint grooves. It reminds of the First Outer Limits episode where the guy is using his radio station tower to KONTAKT aliens and his wife doesn't like the cold vibe of the place he's been giving off with endless adapters, wavelengths and drones etc.

[Zappa]

Gary Numan - Pleasure Principle
Sebadoh - III
Weezer - Blue, Pinkerton
Bill Evans - Conversations with Myself
Opium Jukebox - Music to Download Pornography By

[Jacaranda]

Third Eye Blind - Blue
When ever I listen to this I feel that I shouldn't be enjoying it as much as I do, which is quiet abit. Oh well.
Television - Marquee Moon

[br3ad_man]

Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska
Xiu Xiu - Fabulous Muscles
Watashi Wa - Eager Seas

[Interstate]

Mobb Deep - Hell On Earth
GZA - Liquid Swords
Wu Tang Clan - Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers)
Method Man - Tical
Killah Priest - Heavy Mental

[sketchyjoe]

The Mountain Goats

So addictive.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Merzbow - Frog
Mastodon - Leviathan

[ATM]

M. Ward - Transfiguration of Vincent

Pretty cool.

[JonM]

My Incubus revisitation cycles have been getting more and more frequent lately. I'm even listening to the NEWEST album, and I REALLY didn't like it when it came out.

[Kyle]

I listened to Morning View last week, twas good. The song 11am is a bit of a choon.

[Robert Crumb]

Cut Chemist - The Audience's Listening


I like "What's the Altitude." I Should check out the rest.

Otis Redding gots soul.
Deerhoof writes interesting Bible songs.
Syd Barret Has a new post death fanbase.
A Tribe Called Quest talk about The Arsenio Show alot.
Pavement played on The Jay Leno show and Stephen's guitar fell off as they shook hands.
Kraftwerk get free Petrol like Thom Yorke.
Devo is dissapointedly involed with the Disney band Devo 2.0, hypocrite sell outs.

I've been digging the first word(s) of each sentence this week.

[Daniel!]

The Dead Milkmen - Big Lizard In My Backyard
The Dead Milkmen - Beezlebubba

These guys have so many nifty bass lines that its unfair.
Actually, Horses is ****ing amazing, Tony.
I agree with this.

[Tangy zizzle]

Easter is her only good album.

Aerosmith - Toys in the Attic

I love "No More No More". One of my favorite songs of all time.

Yr an ape if you don't like Horses. It's too real too ignore, Tony.

their other album i kinda like every song

[asymm]

Broadcast - Tender Buttons
Soft Machine - Third

[Interstate]

John Lee Hooker - Live At The Cafe Au Go-Go
Edgar Allen Floe - This boy knows how to rip. I'm really considering getting his album based on the strength of the 2 songs I've heard from it.

[asymm]

The Kinks - The Village Green Preservation Society

[Interstate]

Hanoi Rocks - Two Steps From The Move

This gets better with every listen. Even if it is glam rock.

[Little Man being Erased]

Outkast - Stankonia

"B.O.B." is such an awesome track.

[Robert Crumb]

Actually, Horses is ****ing amazing, Tony.

I read this is as, "Actually, Horse ****ing is amazing."

Listening to Tim Maia right now, though he probably won't make the cut for my top 75-84. Glad you're digging Africa Brasil, Nacho. I know DogintheSand mentioned he likes it, too. Jorge Ben cult.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Hanoi Rocks - Two Steps From The Move

This gets better with every listen. Even if it is glam rock.
:eek:

Kanye West - Late Registratiom
Spank Rock - Yoyoyoyoyo

[Interstate]

:eek:

Kanye West - Late Registratiom
Spank Rock - Yoyoyoyoyo

You know it's good.

[JonM]

I'm digging Jaco Pastorius's self-titled record.

[Dave de Sylvia]

You know it's good.
Yeah, but I didn't expect anyone to agree!

[Robert Crumb]

Africa Brasil is gonna make my list big time.

Now we've got to convince all these other suckas.

[Sound Boy]

Outkast - Stankonia

"B.O.B." is such an awesome track.

indeed it is...you should listen to Aquemini..."Skew it on the Bar-B" is the best Outkast song in my opinion

as for me:
Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
Elefant - Sunlight Makes Me Paranoid
The Hush Sound

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah you guys should really all check it out, it pretty much hooked me immediately. It's catchy, it's upbeat, what else could you want.
You guys certainly have me intrigued. I'll download a few tracks from it and we'll go from there.


indeed it is...you should listen to Aquemini..."Skew it on the Bar-B" is the best Outkast song in my opinion
Yeah, I want to check out ATLiens (thanks to Jon's review) and Aquemini.

[Matt?]

appleseed cast. low level owl both volumes

both are fantastic, at least to me.

i love these guys a lot.

[JonM]

Yeah, I want to check out ATLiens (thanks to Jon's review) and Aquemini.Aquemini is actually my favorite record, it's just that someone got to it before me.

[Little Man being Erased]

Alright, I'll be checking out Aquemini first then.


And I only realised just now what your avatar is.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

dub and cheesy metal!

scientist - rids the world of the evil curse of the vampires
judas priest - british steel
iron maiden - the number of the beast

[Anxious]

I like that scientist album.

[JonM]

Alright, I'll be checking out Aquemini first then.


And I only realised just now what your avatar is.
Nicely done :naughty:

[6Stringer]

Wu Tang Clan - Iron Flag
Deaf In The Family - For Those About To Rock

Going through some hip-hop albums.

[Matt?]

np the pine self titled.

really cool kinda emo/ kinda indie

you guys should check this out, the vocals are really nasaly and probably hard to get past at first but now they are my favorite part

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

man, my life in the bush of ghosts is a good album.

[Against Miik!]

The Format. The new album is excellent. Also Modest Mouse. Previous to a few days ago, I had only heard there latest album. But I downloaded This Is A Long Drive for Someone With Nothing To Think About, and the Moon and Antarica...both on recomendations, and I love both of them.

[Daniel!]

dub and cheesy metal!

scientist - rids the world of the evil curse of the vampires

I like that scientist album.
Cookies for the both of you.

[asymm]

Aphex Twin - I Care Because You Do

This stupid album finally arrived in the mail (I ordered it 21 days ago). Hopefully it's worth the wait. It sounds terrific so far...

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, Lamb are the goods. "Gorecki" is especially awesome.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah. I remember Tapey got me into Lamb like two years ago. Good times.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Pedro The Lion - Control

Amazing that I only recently started listening to this album and realizing how amazing it is

[ATM]

Minus the Bear - discography

A buddy of mine told me these guys arent that great, but im glad I finally checked them out for myself. Good summer music.

Also, that Girl Talk album is so tits, its practically the cover of Jugs magazine. My music nerd side really comes out when I play it and pick out all the different parts.

[Zebra]

Aphex Twin - I Care Because You Do

This stupid album finally arrived in the mail (I ordered it 21 days ago). Hopefully it's worth the wait. It sounds terrific so far...

It's definitely worth the wait. It's kind of hard to get into but it still kicks ***.

The Violent Femmes - s/t

I always forgot how good this album really is.

[ATM]

Yea, that's one of the few Aphex Twin albums I have and I really like it.

[sketchyjoe]

Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
The Replacements - Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash
Sado-Nation - We're Not Equal

Inspired by the 75-84 albums thread.

[JonM]

I just imported my second Trojan box set, and I want to get more. They are wonderful. There's no better way to dig deeper into Jamaican music. I have Dub Rarities and Ganja Reggae, and I'm thinking about getting Rocksteady next.

[Anxious]

Early Pink Floyd, Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets

Trippy stuff.
