| Why I've Been Broke Lately
Everytime I step into a CD store, it seems like I'm picking up a new
album. I need to stop/get a job. Or else somebody gonna get hurt,
real bad. | | 1 |  | Anberlin
Cities
I bought it so I could give it to my lil bro, but I wound up keeping it. it's was an alright cd, but not exactly
my favorite. | | 2 |  | Bloc Party
A Weekend in the City
Another alright album. I just couldn't get into it, and didn't have a desire to listen to it multiple times. I
think I hyped it up too much. I was looking for fun, fast songs, pretty much an improved Silent Alarms,
but Weekend in the City wasnt it. | | 3 | | ISIS
In the Abscence of Truth
A friend wouldn't shut up about ISIS, and I'm glad he didn't stop whoring them. Awesome album, awesome
band. Now I don't stop bugging my other friends about ISIS | | 4 |  | Modest Mouse
We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank
My first real taste of Modest Mouse, and I really liked this album. 1st half was pretty damn catchy, and I
was pretty hooked to Modest Mouse's latest release. Good stuff, I'm thinking about getting some more
of their stuff...once I have money that is. It's a vicious cycle, man | | 5 |  | The John Butler Trio
Grand National
The JBT are pretty awesome, and I think they improved a lot on this released, when compared to their
previous effort, Sunrise Over Sea. If you guys haven't heard any JBT, this album would be a pretty good
place to start, as they stepped it up on their 07 release. | | 6 |  | Nine Inch Nails
Year Zero
This album was pretty freakin awesome! I was so addicted to Year Zero, and songs like The Good
Soldier, My Violent Heat and The Great Destroyer that I pretty much listened to this exclusively for 2
weeks. Now I'm kicking myself for not buying tickets to see NIN when they come to Sydney in May. Not
like I could afford it after all these CD's | | 7 | | Rastawookie
Perfectly Ordinary
I wouldn't be surprised if nobody's heard of these guys. A reggae band based in Sydney, they put a bit
of their South American flavor into some chilled out reggae tracks. But I really bought this cuz my
girlfriend wanted it (whipped!). I haven't really given it a chance, to be honest. | | 8 |  | Porcupine Tree
Fear of a Blank Planet
From the start, Steven Wilson had me hooked. My fav track off here might have to be Anesthesize. Good,
good stuff | | 9 | | Dream Theater
Metropolis Pt 2: Scenes From a Memory
This is actually the first DT album I've bought with my own money (lies, I picked up Live at Budokan. yea
I'm too lazy to go back and delete what i just typed). I got ToT off my drummer, and liked it a lot, and
when i first spun this record I was a little underwhelmed at first. I was expecting some dark,
atmospheric music and crushing riffs a la ToT, but as the album progressed I got more and more into
it. I'll definitely be spending more time with this beast. | | 10 |  | Coheed and Cambria
In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3
Man, I love Coheed! I picked up this and #9 for ten bucks a pop, so I was like," you can't go wrong for
10 bucks" and then subsequently went to spend more money I don't have. I'm actually listening to this
right now (the Velorium Camper I: Faint of Hearts, and it's pretty bad ass), and I'm loving it. Easily one
of my favorite bands, I can't wait for their next release this fall. | |

04.30.07 | I was so close to buying Insomnium's latest release, I had to force it back into the CD rack and walk away quick before i pulled out my ATM card...! | rockstar18
04.30.07 | I've been addicted to Year Zero for like two weeks as well now! | Two-Headed Boy
04.30.07 | 2 and 4 are a'ight, 3 and 6 are amazing, and 9 and 10 are pure cheese. | dub sean
05.16.07 | glad to see JBT on there. Can't say I've heard very much of the other stuff tho, I'm a more reggae guy |
