I only ever see you rip it out of bands. So, do you actually like music? If so - who would rate high?

I'm serious.

I'm convinced dei is both the best and worst poster on the boards simultaneously. This would make him superior to God, as even God cannot create a contradiction. Bow down to dei, the Supergod.

I need sleep.

I think I remember him saying he likes the Decemberists or some **** like that.

I like music, but you guys don't talk about the music I like. I've made threads before on people/bands I think are cool but they don't really get replies for one of two reasons: (a) no one cares about them or (b) people hate me so much they would rather shove a guitar up their *** (body first) than make the view count go up on one of my threads.

You guys can talk **** about the stuff I like too, as long as you are willing to admit that I am never wrong.

[dei]

Beulah is my favorite band right now. I'd tell you to go ahead and rip them apart, but that's not possible because they are perfection.

mmmmmm

buuut as far as modern Beatles-influenced bands go, Of Montreal and Olivia Tremor Control are better.

[dei]

Let's be serious. Everyone knows Of Montreal doesn't hold a candle to Beulah, man.

[sr800bkBassist]

Let's be serious. Everyone knows Of Montreal doesn't hold a candle to Beulah, man.
dood the old psychedelic stuff (not the new indie-dance stuff) puts up hella good competition against Beulah!

[dei]

God himself couldn't write When Your Heartstrings Break.

[Biz]

Dude, if you were to put a thread up about Beulah I would talk about them till I couldn't any more. Beulah is ****en good. I personally like Yoko the most. They are really good man.
-Biz

[sr800bkBassist]

God himself couldn't write When Your Heartstrings Break.
tracks one, two, 5, and 11 make that statement true.
but the other tracks, while not at all bad, leave the album vulnerable and imperfect.

[dei]

Nope. It's easily the best album ever released.

[sr800bkBassist]

do you like Olivia Tremor Control? i dunno if you'd like them better, but they have that kinda sound, except more psychedelic and weiiiird.

[dei]

I've listened to OTC, and I thought they were pretty good.

[sr800bkBassist]

pfft pretty good?
better than Beulah.

[dei]

Nope.

I had this same short discussion with him a while ago. I havn't read this thread so if he replied, this is going to sound redundant. Anyway, his claim is that the forum wouldn't be interesting if there were no conflict....or something.

[YDload]

so do you like any good bands then

[Sound Boy]

Let's be serious. Everyone knows Of Montreal doesn't hold a candle to Beulah, man.

for once im in total agreement
Of Montreal has a handfull of good songs but can get annoying after awhile.
Beulah is money
but Ambulance LTD is better then both

[incubliss]

I wasn't going to rip apart any band you liked, I was just really curious as to what you actually liked as i've not once seen you say you liked a band,

I'll check out Beulah now.

[Sam]

I've never listened to Beulah, but if they're anything like Olivia Tremor Control or Of Montreal, I probably would hate them.

[Iai]

Olivia Tremor Control are The Kinks with ADD. And without the songs.

[Little Man being Erased]

dei is a good poster. You guys need to stop taking the internet so seriously. Who cares if one of your favourite bands gets ripped into, everyone listens to crap music.

The mere fact that a thread has been made about the guy means that he is inspiring discussion, which, if I'm not mistaken, is the goal of a forum.

[dei]

I also enjoy The Acorn, but they're not great. Someone I know used to date someone in this band. I found out about them before whatever website reviewed their Blankets! EP.

I am so indie.

I've been playing Colleen's The Golden Morning Breaks a lot over my home stereo. Man, it's such an awesome album. You should probably pick it up.

[ATM]

dei is a walking indie stereotype

[dei]

I'm in a wheelchair, asshole. :(

You guys need to stop taking the internet so lightly. :mad:

Beulah is less into being all trippy and "experimental". the vocals are very similar, as you can tell that Beulah's singer, just like the singers of OM and OTC, has listened to the Beatles wayyyyy too much. not a bad thing though. it's a cool voice. a lot more based around catchy, simple rock/pop songwriting than OTC and OM as well (as i said at the beginning of this post, they go for a more trippy, arguabley pretentious style (although i don't find it to be pretentious:p)).

[dei]

Beulah are less into being experimental and more into being a lot better than Olivia Tremor Control and Of Montreal.

[sr800bkBassist]

Beulah are less into being experimental and more into being a lot better than Olivia Tremor Control and Of Montreal.
OTC and OM are into being better than Beulah.

the difference?
they actually are.

[dei]

You are not going to change me. But I am going to change you.

[sr800bkBassist]

try harder, it's not working!

[dei]

Like anyone cares about what you have to say, DMD. Your band ****ing sucks.

[sr800bkBassist]

Hey guys I think Beulah and Of Montreal both suck

NMH and OTC ftw
i have the CD "In the Aeroplane over the Sea" by NMH. the songs "In the Aeroplane over the Sea" and "King of Carrot Flowers" are both awesome. everything else is boring and dry.

plus that CD's production is horrendous to my ears. the vocals' EQ and volume make my head feel like splitting open.
is this just a bad CD of theirs?

[dei]

Nope. In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is awesome and you're a dick if you don't like it. It's seriously one of the best CDs ever.

[dei]

I like stereotypes.

[sgrevs]

Nope. In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is awesome and you're a dick if you don't like it. It's seriously one of the best CDs ever.

Agreed.

What about the Decemberists? They are truly a fanastic band.

[Sam]

I don't hate those bands because they're 'trippy and experimental,' which they aren't. I hate them because they suck.

EDIT: Decemberists suck too.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I really still think In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is overrated.
Why do people like it so much? I'm just wondering. :p

[BringHomeTheBacon]

I haven't heard anything that I've disliked from Elephant 6. In The Aeroplane Over the Sea is probably my 4th favorite album ever. Anyone like Apples in Stereo? Much more poppy than other E6 bands but I like them.

[dei]

Agreed.

What about the Decemberists? They are truly a fanastic band.
Colin Meloy is one of my favorite songwriters. He's so nice too. I've not met him but I went to his solo show at the El Rey a while back and he's just so charismatic and stuff. He had us headbang to a Shirley Collins' cover.

But there is one problem: his more upbeat songs ("July, July!" and "Billy Liar" and others like it). Good thing there are only four in total. They're not bad songs but they definitely make the albums feel a little less than complete, which really aren't except Picaresque.

I've picked up some neat words from their songs, though, and use them whenever possible.

[el doctor]

Let's be serious. Everyone knows Of Montreal doesn't hold a candle to Beulah, man.Amen. When your Heartstrings Break is a classic.

[niobium]

But there is one problem: his more upbeat songs ("July, July!" and "Billy Liar"Billy Liar's got his hands in his pockets...

That song sucks so hard. And I like The Decemberists a lot.

[Zorg]

I like July, July!...The Decemberists are pretty good, but they are a little too derivative of NMH, who are too awesome.

[ToolBox]

Because of this thread I bought When Your Heartstrings Break.

Thank you.

[Doctor D.]

dei's allright. I won't pull a pitchfok out on 'em!!!

See what I did there? I'm a comic mastermind.

Good. It's a shame you'll never get to see them live.

[incubliss]

Beulah sound pretty good from what i'm hearing, thanks. Had a bit of a Pantera binge, as a band were doing some covers from the Vulgar album at a local gig last night. This is really refreshing.

[ToolBox]

Good. It's a shame you'll never get to see them live.

Were they amazing?

[dei]

Were they amazing?
Yes.

[Doctor D.]

I would have gotten that without that comment at the end, and even without the italics.

Most would. All the extra stuff was pure self indulgence.

Have you listened to Colin Meloy Sings Morrissey?

[dei]

I've heard some bad things about it, so I haven't bothered to check it out. He didn't play any Morrissey songs live either, only one Shirley Collins song.

[The Great Decay]

I've got it, and it's decent.

Do you have Soulseek?
