What I've Been Digging Lately

[Kayetan]

I had A Sentinel's Eyes but I deleted it when I realized I didn't like it.


Balanescu Quartet- Maria T

[Eliminator]

oh he went there

[asymm]

REM - Lifes Rich Pageant
Hüsker Dü - New Day Rising
MoHa! - Raus Aus Stavanger

[asdf]

Merzbow - Rainbow Electronics
Merzbow is nice on occasionI don't think I'd ever refer to Merzbow as nice.

James Brown - 1963 Live at the Apollo

[Eliminator]

1930 is nice.

[asdf]

1930 is nice.
Yeah, that's the one my brother likes. I'm pretty sure he puts it in his top 10 albums of all time.

[Eliminator]

It's not that good.

then again i've only listened to it all the way through once or twice

[Zebra]

[QUOTE=asymm;13718697]REM - Lifes Rich PageantQUOTE]

I'm going to go and listen to that right now. It's been years since I've listened to it.

[Bukowski]

various Don Caballero albums

just back from Don Cab, they were quite good. They're probably the only band I've ever seen where the whole audience was entirely focused on the drummer rather than anyone else. And the support band was great, No Kilter, they reminded me of Faraquet.

[br3ad_man]

Split Enz - True Colours
Sun Kil Moon - Tiny Cities
Ulver - Kveldssanger

[Iai]

Beatles - Love

Surprisingly, it's awesome. Potentially my second favourite Beatles album, even.

[Eliminator]

Split Enz - True Colours
Sun Kil Moon - Tiny Cities
Ulver - Kveldssanger

kveldssanger is pretty sweet

[ATM]

The Congos - Heart of the Congos
Louis Logic and J.J. Brown - Misery Loves Comedy <----- get this now
Louis Logic - Sin-A-Matic <----- get this second

[Eliminator]

why hasn't last.fm updated

[Zmev]

Mastodon - Blood Mountain

Sweet riffs, but I don't like the vocals.

[Happymeal]

^Same.

[pixiesfanyo]

no the riffs suck too.

[Zappa]

It still amazes me how soothing Cluster '71 by Cluster manages to be through all the noise.

[asdf]

Estradasphere - Hunger Strike.

I only listened to this song. The song is almost 20 minutes long, and everytime I listen to it I'm blown away. Oh my god.

[asymm]

The Blood Brothers - Burn, Piano Island, Burn
This album is amazing. Crimes was so fizzled out and dulled compared to the extended, swirling sound of this album. Anyone have any good recommendations for someone who wants the extended intensity of this record (not necessarily the Blood Brothers in general)?

[YDload]

asymm, listen to The Fall of Troy

They put up a live version of "Seattlantis" on their myspace too :)

[br3ad_man]

2 Red House Painters 23

I was away last week.

kveldssanger is pretty sweet

Probably the best album ever put out by a black metal band.

The Blood Brothers - Burn, Piano Island, Burn
This album is amazing. Crimes was so fizzled out and dulled compared to the extended, swirling sound of this album. Anyone have any good recommendations for someone who wants the extended intensity of this record (not necessarily the Blood Brothers in general)?

boards of canada - music has the right to children

I tried listening to that last night. I just can't get into it.

And way, I listened to Real Gone by Tom Waits for the first time in probably over a year, and it was good.

[biografiend]

Me either.


My last.fm still hasnt updated :realangry:
However, on the first listen Silent Shout seems very promising. I've also been checking out Islaja. It's nothing impressive so far.

[ATM]

It's good background music, though.

Spoon - Gimme Fiction

I love this band. Kill the Moonlight is next on the agenda to buy.

[asymm]

The Hold Stead - Boys and Girls in America
Echo & the Bunnymen - Crocodiles
This is probably better than Ocean Rain and "Villiers Terrace" is better than "The Killing Moon". Terrific record.

Weird week. I didn't think DCFC or Lush recieved as many plays as it says.

p.s. whats the name of that one cool christmas song and the man voice part sings "ding dong ding dong" and the ladies voices sing really fast kinda?

[Zappa]

Actually Remain in Light is perfect.

[mr_jackalope]

Actually Remain in Light is perfect.

Correct.

you say the same thing about Pink Flag and Double Nickels on the Dime when both albums obviously have filler tracks. doesn't diminish the overall value of the record, but you're crazy if you say every single track is awesome.

[YDload]

but zappa doesnt think theyre filler tracks

plus your statement only validates the ok computer loves UGH

[SubtleDagger]

Yakuza is ridiculously good

[Little Man being Erased]

Actually Remain in Light is perfect.
Agreed. Amazing from beginning to end.

[asymm]

Supersilent - 7
Had my girlfriend watch some of it tonight, and she really appreciated it. I think the addition of visuals really adds to the emotion of the experience - seeing how visceral and sincere it is in performance. It was her first time hearing their music; I'm so proud.

[pixiesfanyo]

^ I liked 6 by the way.

Not incredible, but a solid release.

[Zappa]

Double Nickels isn't perfect. Pink Flag is intensely perfect, one of the few. Oh, and so is OK Computer.

[JonM]

Talking Heads - Remain in Light

The best album ever!I'll drink to that.

[pixiesfanyo]

Alex, OK Computer isn't perfect.

Let's be honest.

[Iai]

I'd love someone to actually point out an imperfection in OK Computer to me.

Anything other than 'It's become hip to not like it' would be fine.

[Kage]

You can't be a real indie kid if you like Ok Computer, duh.

[pixiesfanyo]

End sucks.

Fitterhappier.

[Kage]

I like Fitter Happier because it drains your energy and then BAM Electioneering comes in and you're back into it.

[pixiesfanyo]

oh yeah.

Electioneering doesn't fit on the album at all too.

[Iai]

"The Tourist" is one of my favourite final tracks on an album, and "Lucky" flat-out rules. And claiming "Fitter Happier" doesn't work is like saying Trainspotting would be better without the monologue at the beginning.

And without the pairing of "Fitter Happier" and "Electioneering" the album wouldn't have the ballast it does. They're needed to inject power into it. Without them, "Climbing Up The Walls" could have felt like a dirge. With them, it's the best thing Radiohead have ever done.

[pixiesfanyo]

What?

The monologue at the beginning Trainspotting, isn't a computer voice talking over noise scapes. You have the bad *** end of Karma Police, and then it's ruined by Fittier Happier's self indulgence. Also Lucky and The Tourist are just boring and too much like the beginning of the record.

[Iai]

You actually think "The Tourist" and "Lucky" sound like "Airbag" and "Paranoid Android"? Are you serious?

[pixiesfanyo]

more like Exit Music and Subterranean

[YDload]

Electioneering is one of the best songs on the album. too bad it doesnt fit with the others.

[Eliminator]

airbag's drum beat makes the song

[Tangy zizzle]

I'm not getting into any argument about the record as a whole, but 'm standing up on this one... Let Down is the best song on the album, plain and simple.

[Kage]

I think Exit Music is really emotional.

[Kage]

Oh, dang.


REAL EMOTION: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddquVvGxTS8

[Eliminator]

heart of glass is an awesome song

[Kage]

Well the lead singer from Blondie is in the movie Videodrome.

[AlienEater]

Videodrome is a great movie

[Kage]

Very true. One of the best ever made in my opinion.

[SubtleDagger]

Heart of Glass is fine and all but Blondie is kind of lame most of the time

/downloads Police albums

[Little Man being Erased]

Parallel Lines is a fantastic album.

[SubtleDagger]

Actually screw that

/gets Police greatest hits

If I can have Message in a Bottle and Wrapped Around Your Finger on the same album then I will dammit

[SubtleDagger]

Is Vol. 3 any good because this always sounds awesome

Big pimpin, spendin cheese
Big pimpin, on B.L.A.D.'s
Big pimpin in P.A.T.
It's just that Jigga Man, Pimp C, and B-U-N B

Smokin out, throwin up, keepin lean up in my cup
All my car got leather and wood, in my hood we call it buck
Everybody wanna ball, holla at broads at the mall
If he up, watch him fall, nigga I can't **** witch'all

[asymm]

Prosaics - Aghast Agape EP
Scorch Trio - Luggumt

[SubtleDagger]

Eh I hear it's crappy (Vol. 3)

The lyrics for Wrapped Around Your Finger are so stupid but the chorus is godly

[ATM]

None of the volumes are that good. I always liked Vol 2 just because it's the one I got when I first started getting into rap.

[Iai]

I don't get the hype with Reasonable Doubt. People putting it on the level of Illmatic and Ready To Die is a joke.

[Bukowski]

Jesu - Silver
Swans - Children of God

[_Mote_]

Illmatic is my second favorite rap album ever. The cliche number one goes to Public Enemy's ITANOMTHUB.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Ready To Die sucks.

[YDload]

"All Lies" is a standout Nomeansno song off of Wrong.

[_Mote_]

good selections.

yeah I am not a Public Enemy fan at all.

Why not, I really like Chuck's flow. It's not about speed or aggressiveness for me, and he has amazing lyrics.

[Iai]

Ready To Die sits very comfortably in my top 5 rap records ever, along with the two obvious PE albums, Doggystyle, and The Marshall Mathers LP.

Being white is fun.

[_Mote_]

I haven't heard that. I don't like much later PE, but damn, the early stuff is great.

EDIT: Bomb Squad I mean.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm not a fan of Public Enemy either.


"All Lies" is a standout Nomeansno song off of Wrong.
The whole album rules.

[Iai]

I haven't heard that. I don't like much later PE, but damn, the early stuff is great.

EDIT: Bomb Squad I mean.
The Bomb Squad were PE's production team up until Apocalypse '91. So all the stuff you like is Bomb Squad-produced.

[Zmev]

"All Lies" is a standout Nomeansno song off of Wrong.

One day I was driving with my friend to San Bruno in search of an Orange Julias and he said "Oh No, San Bruno!". Coming from a guy who likes my chemical romance and shi I was pretty impressed.

[Zmev]

ORANGE

[Zebra]

Can - Tago Mago
Amon Duul II - Yeti

[YDload]

The whole album rules.

yeah it does. in contrast to the other problems i had with Zappa's idea of "perfect" albums, Wrong really is one of them. i was just pointing out the absolute best of the best

It's Catching Up
Rags and Bones
Big Dick
All Lies

just my favs :)

[Little Man being Erased]

Pretty much agreed on the fav songs too.

[br3ad_man]

Ryan Adams - Love is Hell

"This House is Not For Sale" is unbelievable.

That and "Please Do Not Let Me Go" are the best.

[Little Man being Erased]

Ryan Adams - Love is Hell

"This House is Not For Sale" is unbelievable.
Excellent to see Ryan Adams has taken a hold of you.

[Anxious]

Ryan Adams - Love is Hell



He should read the comics by Matt Groening of the same name.

[pulseczar]

Can - Tago Mago
Amon Duul II - Yeti

you have to review Amon Duul II, they need more lovin.

[BillCosby]

how can you listen to Gravy Train!!!! 31 times?.....

seriously

[Anxious]

Ruins

[YDload]

He should read the comics by Matt Groening of the same name.

that's LIFE in hell

[pixiesfanyo]

Fugazi - Repeater

[Robert Crumb]

that's LIFE in hell

There are a bunch of different ones. I know there's a School is Hell and Work Is Hell. Dunno about Love is Hell.

Currently digging Stooges, Mayo Thompson and Edward Gorey. Really gotta push Funhouse up on my 65-74 list. Mayo album is pretty neat, too. "Horses" and "Oyser Thins" are sweet, not really sure if it'll make the list, but it's really unique stuff and should be downloaded. I'm going to go ahead and make the assumption that at some point, Stephen Malkmus heard this album and really liked it.

Also, Edward Gorey is the man. That is all.

[Little Man being Erased]

XTC - Drums and Wires
Primal Scream - Screamadelica
The Flaming Lips - Transmissions from the Satellite Heart

Say hello to my new favourite Flaming Lips album. :wave:

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

i just bought The New Wonder by A.C. Newman and the guy that served me asked me if i was going to the New Pornographers and said it was a great record.

It is.

[_Mote_]

Say hello to my new favourite Flaming Lips album. :wave:

I liked Clouds Taste Metalic. I thought that they were working on that kind of garage pop sound with TFSH, and perfected it with Clouds. If you haven't checked it out yet, do so.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah Clouds Taste Metallic is awesome too. Actually those two albums are just about on a par.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah, that's about right.

[Little Man being Erased]

Amen brother.


I'm diggin on Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor right now. So far, it's great.

[br3ad_man]

I'm listening to In On the Kill Taker. Jared's Repeater review made me feel like listening to Fugazi. This is my second time through it tonight.

[Little Man being Erased]

Food & Liquor is great. Go wuss-rap.


Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady

****, I'm finding it difficult to get into jazz.

[ATM]

The Beatnuts - Mussical Massacre
Ulver - Perdition City
Project Pat - Crook by the Book
Afroman - A Colt 45 Christmas
Crotchduster - Big Fat Box of ****
El P - Collecting the Kid

[Iai]

I've been digging Lupe Fiasco too. The album takes a while to get off the ground, but when it does it's quality stuff.

[AlienEater]

I've been digging various SYRs recently

[Happymeal]

The Futureheads - s/t

"Meantime" is insanely catchy, I had it on loop last night.

Superchunk - No Pocky for Kitty

I'm very pleasantly surprised by this. It's a feel-good, loud guitar album that I'm liking more and more every time I listen to it. Anyone else familiar with this band? Which record of theirs should I get next?

[Zappa]

Food & Liquor is great. Go wuss-rap.


Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady

****, I'm finding it difficult to get into jazz.

Australians hate jazz.

[pulseczar]

Slowdive - Souvlaki
it has some good songs, but what makes shoegaze albums special for me is their dynamics on loud and thick, yet subdued, chilled out vibes, and Souvlaki is just really tame the whole way.

[Electrocution]

Crotchduster
haha




i didn't know people actually listened to them

[pixiesfanyo]

they rule?

Silver Jews - Tanglewood Numbers

[Tangy zizzle]

The Thermals - The Body The Blood The Machine
Can - Future Days
Black Mountain - Druganaut EP
The Brunettes - Mars Loves Venus

[Anxious]

There are a bunch of different ones. I know there's a School is Hell and Work Is Hell. Dunno about Love is Hell.


There is a Love in Hell.

Slowdive - Souvlaki
it has some good songs, but what makes shoegaze albums special for me is their dynamics on loud and thick, yet subdued, chilled out vibes, and Souvlaki is just really tame the whole way.Yeah they pretty much suck.

[Zmev]

Cmon dudes they have some good songz

[BillCosby]

slowdive > mbv

[Anxious]

Slowdive might as well be Kenny G.

[Eliminator]

slowdive's first album sucks

[Happymeal]

There's too much hating on that band. Souvlaki has a ton of great melodies.

[Eliminator]

yes it does

[Happymeal]

Just for a Day isn't that great but hey some of us can say the same for Isn't Anything

[Eliminator]

at least i can remember what the songs on isn't anything sound like

[EightMilesHigh]

John Coltrane - Blue Train

[Eliminator]

good album

moment's notice rules

[Happymeal]

at least i can remember what the songs on isn't anything sound like

Probably cause you never bothered to listen to all of it, you lamer

[Eliminator]

i've listened to just for a day at least one and a half times through

[Little Man being Erased]

Australians hate jazz.
Truth. Bunch of uncultured beer swilling bastards.

[pixiesfanyo]

you suck.

I burned Bath the other day.

[br3ad_man]

I bought the reissue a while ago and I just realised I burned a copy without the extra tracks. Oh well.

[Eliminator]

i downloaded it like a good thief

[Little Man being Erased]

Michael Jackson - Thriller

So good, but "The Girl is Mine" is so bad.

Does anyone dig the Archie Bronson Outfit? I just heard "Cherry Lips" and it was great.

[Happymeal]

Michael Jackson - Thriller

So good, but "The Girl is Mine" is so bad.

Does anyone dig the Archie Bronson Outfit? I just heard "Cherry Lips" and it was great.

I've heard them before but I found nothing very ear-catching. RYM says their album this year is pretty good, so I might take a look at that one of these days.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, that song I heard is off their new one. I'm in the process of acquiring the album at the moment.

[pixiesfanyo]

Good thing I'm here to inform MX about Kayo Dot and motW obnoxiously,

[AlienEater]

I think I'll get Bath

The Girl is Mine is so bad that it's good. Can you imagine Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson really fighting? hahah

[AlienEater]

Melvins - (A) Senile Animal
Melvins - Houdini Live
They're both really good. I think Houdini Live is kinda pointless though, especially as I don't like Houdini all that much.

****ed Up - Hidden World
This is pretty good psychdelic punk

[Doctor D.]

Gwar - Violence Has Arrived, Carnival Of Chaos, Beyond Hell

Saw them on Wednesday and I can't stop listening to em'. For the enocre they unamsked....it was the first "naked" encore the whole tour. I'm pretty sure the south Florida ball destroying heat was next to un****ingbareable in costume.

Oh, and I caught Oderus's (Vocalist) latex glove. Not the awesome costume glove. Just a regular latex glove.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Black Flag - The First Four Years (3.5/5)
*NSYNC - *NSYNC (3/5)
Celebrity is so much better.

[superpeer]

I bought the reissue a while ago and I just realised I burned a copy without the extra tracks. Oh well.

I have the original version. :naughty: I wonder if it will ever be worth any money. <-<

[NineBitFable]

****ed Up - Hidden World

Me neither. It's OK but I never got the hype. I love some of their other stuff though.

I'm digging Jesu a lot. I'm going to look into this guys other bands.

[Anxious]

Jesu is secks

[Bukowski]

Silver is so much more melodic than their debut. But yeah, both rule.

[asymm]

Rune Grammofon - Runeology
Terrific compilation! The track sequencing and flow is excellent, I was impressed. It was only sent out with a copy of the magazine, The Wire, in 2001. Recently purchased a copy on eBay for $5 because I'm a ridiculous completist.

[_Mote_]

Teletubbies - Nursery Rhymes and other fun songs!

w00t w00t

[Eliminator]

ur so ironic

[_Mote_]

ur so ironic

How am I ironic?:mad:

The Queers - Everything's OK EP

I know the guy who played bass on that pretty well, and I've met the singer Joe a few times. Great band. Defidently check them out if you haven't done so. Not alt indie at all, but like bubblegum pop-punk (good thing, not bad thing).

[pixiesfanyo]

Drive Like Jehu - Drive Like Jehu

it's good, not as good as Yank Crime though.

I like it so much more.

Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye

This is the best produced album ever.

[Anxious]

I like Yank Crime better than their s/t.

[_Mote_]

Blondie - Heart of Glass

*taps foot*

[Eliminator]

Ghostface Killah - More Fish

[Electronic Wolf]

I'm listening to Boom Bip.

[YDload]

I like Yank Crime better than their s/t.

what's s/t got? Atom Jack is the only song that grabbed my attention :(

[pixiesfanyo]

Spikes To You
Good Luck In Jail

Melvins - Stoner Witch

[AlienEater]

Made out of Babies - Trophy
It's good, but not as good as Coward

[Robert Crumb]

Silver Jews and now a Supersilent song I found on my computer. I think it's from the Rune Graffamaphone thingie asymm posted a while ago (which was pretty cool as I recall). I also just realized that I'd been confusing them with the band Supersystem. Supersilent is kinda interesting. Supersystem, not so much.

[asymm]

now a Supersilent song I found on my computer. I think it's from the Rune Graffamaphone thingie asymm posted a while ago (which was pretty cool as I recall).
YES!

Today...
Califone - Roots & Crowns
Boris - Pink
Rune Grammofon Compilation - Runeology

[Robert Crumb]

Hey asymm, is any of Susanna and the Magical Orchestra's stuff worth checking out? I liked her song on that comp, too, meant to ask about that.

[_Mote_]

Flaming Lips - At War With the Mystics

Why oh why do more people not love this record.
It owns Yoshimi so hard, yet people don't seem to think it's anything special.

[3rdplanet]

Different Damage - Q and not U

This is better than No Kill No Beep Beep but only just.

And I - Meshuggah.

[Electrocution]

Listening to Sleep's Dopesmoker right now. I dig on this album so hard...I never realized that it was actually a posthumous release.

...Does anyone know if they actually had any religious beliefs? Dopesmoker is full of religious imagery, and one of the founding members (Justin Marler) quit the band to become a monk...but Matt Pike also formed High on Fire, who don't strike me as being the same way at all.

[Little Man being Erased]

The Girl is Mine is so bad that it's good. Can you imagine Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson really fighting? hahah
haha, seriously, that would be about the funniest fight ever.

Mos Def - Black on Both Sides

it's ok. nothing too special though.

[sweboy]

Been diggin' These Arms Are Snakes and Hello Saferide.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Yo La Tengo
The Polyphonic Spree & Elliott Smith on the Thumbsucker soundtrack
Le Tigre
Sufjan Stevens

Camper Van Beethoven - Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart

I used to listen to this album as a kid because my dad loves them, but I really have not heard it in years. I was inspired to track it down because "she divines water" came up on random play, and I remembered how much I loved it. I couldn't find the disc in my house, though.

Soon I'll also be listening to the album "Key Lime Pie"

[Dave de Sylvia]

2) It has a song called "Luv [sic]", which is brilliant.
That borders on life-changing. I must.

[Kayetan]

D+- Deception Pass

This album is so nice and simple.

[pixiesfanyo]

Moss Icon.

god so good.

[Kyle]

Fujiya and Miyagi - Transparent Things

Just hearing this for the first time, it's tight.

[asymm]

Hey asymm, is any of Susanna and the Magical Orchestra's stuff worth checking out? I liked her song on that comp, too, meant to ask about that.
Definitely. Especially since you enjoyed their contribution to the compilation, you'll really appreciate the full lengths. They have two records, the first being List of Lights and Buoys and the second is a record of covers, Melody Mountain. The covers record has things by Kiss, Joy Division, AC/DC, Depeche Mode, Dylan, Prince, Leonard Cohen, and Scott Walker. You can't go wrong with either.

[AlienEater]

I've been in an emo/screamo kinda mood today, so I've dug a bunch of emo/screamo records.

[_Mote_]

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing...

For some reason, I've never listened to this album before. Bu thank god, someone uploaded it onto the Alt/Indie mailing list, and I uploaded it. It's mind-blowing! I don't think I've ever heard music like this before, and I gotsta say, I love it.

[Kayetan]

Quit making stuff up, Mote. I'm sick of it.

[asymm]

Found a few cheap records at the used bookstore, so I shall be digging them today:

XTC - Black Sea
The Grateful Dead - American Beauty
Split Enz - True Colours
Squeeze - Singles 45s and Under
Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings and Food

[_Mote_]

Quit making stuff up, Mote. I'm sick of it.

I swear on my right teste I had never heard DJ Shadow until today.

I've decided it's a big regret :upset:

The Rose Garden- Next Plane to London

[Anxious]

The new Sonic Youth thing is pretty good but I am extremeley dissapointed that the Diamond Sea is the normal version off of Washing Machine!

[Little Man being Erased]

The Flaming Lips - Clouds Taste Metallic
Justin Timberlake - FutureSex/LoveSounds
NoMeansNo - Wrong
Pere Ubu - The Modern Dance

Fun, fun, fun.

[Eliminator]

The new Sonic Youth thing is pretty good but I am extremeley dissapointed that the Diamond Sea is the normal version off of Washing Machine!

it's the normal version but extended to 25 minutes

[_Mote_]

Eliminator, if you are so anti-Sonic Youth, how come you know all of these random facts about them, and list 'Or' as one of your favorite non-singles for the year?

As for me, Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots - Flaming Lips. I take my previous statement back, Yoshimi > Mystics.

[Eliminator]

because i run this ****in town

[_Mote_]

Are or are you not a fan of Sonic Youth's music?!?

Answer me dammit!

[Anxious]

it's the normal version but extended to 25 minutes

Hey, you're right.

[Eliminator]

sonic youth suck

[_Mote_]

lawl...?

[pixiesfanyo]

lawl...?

His name is Eliminator.

[mr_jackalope]

I really believe _mote_ might actually be retarded.

Today, lots of Caetano Veloso. Man's a fantastic songwriter.
