 | Lucidity "oh helllllll naw, someone hold my purse" is this your signature phrase right now? hah love u
|
 | Atari Lol nah wasn't joking. not sure if u heard the band's older material but their vocals have improved as well so the combination of the improved vocals laura Stevenson = A
|
| Atari I'd be surprised if u didn't like 'the devil in my blood stream'
|
| Atari i'm supposed to tell you that laura stevenson is featured in the new album by the wonder years : P
|
 | barcafan21 i love the uptempo tracks so much and pink rabbits is amazing its their most immediate album
|
 | klap are you telling me you've never listened to cut copy - in ghost colours???? this is something to be rectified immediately and frankly i dk how it is even possible
|
| klap hahahaha nice that is so random. i am pretty jazzed my gf found me a used vinyl copy of in ghost colours she shipped from japan. legitimately difficult record to track down and wasn't gonna pay $300 new to some twat on ebay
|
| klap dude same. i had been meaning to listen to it for a while but it wasn't really what i expected. still good tho
|
 | Ire congrats on making staff gj
|
 | Deviant. With the rate I'm going armageddon might hit first
|
| klap i honestly just retweet NBA jokes bc i am so lazy
|
| klap no it's quite boring actually
|
| klap veils followed me on twitter after my review haha yesss
|
 | slipnslide that house is just down the street from me so if youd like to buy it i can vouch it is a nice neighbourhood and i will maybe consider a discounted price for a fellow vancouverite ;)
|
| slipnslide yo aids wanna buy a house http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcJWjKFZTLM
|
| klap like "dancing with the tornado" is them doing ye olde blues shtick and the whole middle is kind of dreary but the last half is ace
|
| klap yeah a high school friend of mine gave me Runaway found like 10th grade and i dug it. listening back on all their stuff now it's really almost as good as Nux Vomica imo - the only song i really am bleh about is Guiding Light. Sun Gangs hasn't aged as well but there's still a few classic songs there. the new one is interesting - more sparse than the others but i like it. kind of hits a lull in the middle and a couple bad songs
|
| klap trying to review their new album
|
 | SgtPepper Thanks. I'm not very creative when it comes to names so I just end up going with whatever comes to mind. cheers.
|
 | Rev It pains me to say it too dude, but to me all the music seems recycled and the lyrics aren't as hard hitting and the album as a whole feels like the band on auto-pilot. It bums me out cause EGN is in my top 5 favorite albums and SITB is my jam
|
 | tommygun mate where's your wheel review I feel like I'm waiting for a cumshot thatjustisn'tcoming
|
| klap don't worry i won't be reviewing it. probs around a 4 off initial listens tho. it's just an album i associate with sputnik because of the sit resist hype train
|
| klap I THOUGHT sit resist was ok (like average power-pop 3.5 i mean where is my she AND him) but i must say i do appreciate wheel quite a bit. **** you sputnik!
|
 | Hep Kat you've srsly never heard night birds? they're only the single greatest punk band in existence today: http://gravemistakerecords.bandcamp.com/album/fresh-kills-vol-1
|
 | FromDaHood nah dude i'll hook you up. what's your dropbox e-mail do you use for Dropbox?
|
| FromDaHood Ah **** I never should have hooked Rob up, I'm not ready for this kind of responsibility. Can it wait until tomorrow?
|
 | geasoftime I intentionally recced him the albums that I did, and that's far from every electronic album I've ever heard. Maybe 1% of them. If he's trying to get into electronic music, he should hear those albums, even if they're not exactly like the ones he posted. Excluding the Tim Hecker album, they're all much better.
|
| klap first recap up tmrw! god i hate writing these things have to pretend like i was sober the entire time...
|
 | taylormemer Thank you. It was, at the time, an appropriate response.
|
 | fish. No :\ this site is so easy to troll when it comes to certain bands, it's too easy to resist
|
 | toxin. are you reviewing the new eluvium? i would love to see your take on it
|
 | Jash Yeah his LP was one of the more consistent ones for sure
|
| Ire frank turner is gay
|
| Jash Hahaha nice one, what have you heard so far?
|
 | Spare aids aids aids check my record http://troubledmedium.bandcamp.com/
|
 | clercqie The Trentemoller track is obviously the tits.
|
| clercqie http://nodata.tv/76506 Since you want some more deep house. Wonderful mix.
|
 | wabbit It's like you don't even read infowars.com
|
| wabbit I'm trying to bang this girl and she's trying to convince me chem trails are real.
|
| clercqie happen to have a Markley link? After reading your review, I decided I really need that album. ;]Very nice work btw!
|
 | surprisefriend im pretty confident that we have a better playoff team that last year i think we can beat anaheim i cant see them "beating" us like most teams i think sestito is a playoff performer with his big hits hopefully ebbet is out booth will be fuucked either way kassian is gonna be a fuuckin force holy shiit he has been playing soo good since he came back laying the body hard sedins getting into their swing oh man
|
 | curseworship Nah, you and Trebor are great reviewers. If I get promoted, awesome, but if I don't, that's fine too. I'm never applying for it again though, if they think I should be promoted they will do it, I'm not gonna ask over and over coughataricough
|
| curseworship Most staffers actually voted for me, surprisingly, but none of the contribs did because the ones that voted I don't know and/or they don't know me. I also hadn't reviewed for like a year before fairly recently
|
| curseworship I did an application, but I'm not going to try to be friends with everyone and write a mediocre-at-best review every day because getting contrib will somehow validate my existence. The Far Side is my all time favorite comic on any medium. I love it so much.
|
| curseworship Contribs who never wanted to become staff, like ras, and instead just acted like huge assholes were the best. I will always love ras because I credit him with starting the whole "posting all your 5s to help my argument." It is probably my favorite thing ever.
|
| curseworship Wtf was toxin on about in that For Today thread, my dream is to one day be ras
|
 | Iluvatar if my calculations are correct you are aids
|
| Lucidity ha there's always chat? to tell ya what i think. reset was great to start fresh, don't regret it.
|
| barcafan21 which thread did you post your mountain goats mix in?
|
| Rev that tag is literally 5 years old haha, and i came up with it in like a second lol
|
| Jash Comes out April 22nd, previews are enough for me
|
| Ire jam tender prey
|
| Ire jam tender prey
|
| Ire sweet ive been on a binge. i got 3 murder ballads, tender prey and the firstborn is dead atm. let love in is next on my list gonna jam harrrrrrrrd
|
| Ire well yea if im gonna lose to someone IT'S GONNA BE THE BEST THERE EVER WAS
|
| Ire voted for u gaybutt
|
 | SupercolliderMusic Sorry, man, not a big bluegrass guy, but yeah FRENGERS... what a great album.
|
 | Skimaskcheck Ahh that's cool, similar with me. i just never know what the hell to do after it's over, floors me everytime! hahaha excellent, i am now even more excited for it! don't worry about it, i understand. thanks though! whilst i'm here, where do i start with Mountain Goats?
|
| Jash the best i can do http://torrentz.eu/5c0132bf95a175466b8b5d212c882ee64992eacc
|
| Jash Haven't got it yet, i just stopped being a goof
|
| klap was that some sort of cruel joke
|
| Skimaskcheck ahah, just added you on last.fm and noticed that i sent you a shout on there asking for Wheel.. apologies, how desperate does that make me look
|
| Skimaskcheck haha, i've been around since 2009 but haven't really posted (or rated much!) in the last year/two years. aha that's funny - i was checking out your ratings too, incredible stuff all over! i think i saw you comment somewhere that LYSF was your favourite album ever, that still true? it's still mine! nice one for getting a promo copy of Wheel though, i can't wait to hear it. review it when it streams!
|
| clercqie It rings a bell yeah. They kinda looked like two high school girls fighting over something that's really not worth it.
|
| Iluvatar i mean i liked sit resist too so idk why i wouldnt have liked wheel!
|
 | Trebor17 lol nah I was just playing hype man, got to bump back to 4 though
|
| clercqie It's ****ing 24 euros; really pissed, but I'm not paying that kinda money for only 4 tracks. The ep is really ****ing good though. Badman obvs, but also To Feel. Damn. Yeah, I like him, but I couldn't name any of his tunes though. He plays the kinda style I like when partying. It's not something I'd spin when at home or so. You were going to review his latest, no?
|
| Skimaskcheck How did you listen to Wheel?! is there a leak? all my envy
|
| Hep Kat all i know is up side down is my new fave old man markley song and that place was ****in HARD WON
|
| Hep Kat hi aidz and by that i mean WHY HAVENT YOU REVIEWED THE NEW OLD MAN MARKLEY NIGGA s*** WHAT THEY GIVE YOU CONTRIBUTOR FOR????
|
| Spare it'll be like more than a month D: actually nah will prob leak soon
|
| Spare i paid 30 stupid dollars to ship the lp here i DESERVE IT
|
| Spare uh hmu w new laura stevenson tbh
|
| wabbit I just spit coffee on my monitor and now my boss totally knows I'm not working
|
| geasoftime I see that you've posted today, so I am going to assume that you've read the messages. I am removing them because I don't want to advertise all that so publicly.
|
 | mindleviticus jeez you old ****.ahajk I used to listen to a s*** load of indie and then I started to get less interested in it, but I still jam a lot of Yeasayer, of Montreal and Alvin Band
|
| mindleviticus how old are you dude you got quite the sporadic taste there
|
| mindleviticus couldn't get any :[ oh well I'll just have some mellow mood that'll work relatively well
|
| mindleviticus And I'm doing good. Probably gonna get stoned and listen to the new bonobo tonight. Typical Friday
|
| mindleviticus Yeah, I checked it out a bit. Wasn't really interested, tbh. Cheers to your friend, though!
|
| mindleviticus uuugghhghghghguughjUUGUUGHUGHGHGHHSo what's up, man?
|
| mindleviticus I doubt that, I've seen baseline admit that she could've been riff but I think she's just trolling. I've never seen riff give away he was baseline. I mean she loves completely different stuff as riff and was even describing to me how much she loved Paddy Macloon's I trawl the megahertz and riff wouldn't answer me or tell me he didn't care for it. Regardless I still don't believe it.
|
 | andcas it would be interesting to see the reaction
|
| Jash Ill probably bump it up once I hear it on vinyl. What was Joe on about with all that CD
|
| andcas she's too good to pull a paris hilton. great, now I've complimented her...****
|
| andcas you weren't supposed to take that seriously
|
| mindleviticus Oh and I still don't believe that riff and base are the same person there's no evidence
|
| mindleviticus also congrats on your promotion, I never really read any of your reviews, but that may change! ;]
|
| andcas you never know. she might drop a DJ album on us one of these days.
|
| mindleviticus I guess the review didn't exactly make the point clear enough. I call it a lot of things and dubstep was one I knew people weren't going to entirely agree upon. The reality is that the first two songs just scream dubstep and I even say that Ashore has that downtempo feeling as well with the synth wave, but Dionysian, c'mon man, you can't say that that isn't dubstep; it has all of the characteristics of it. The other songs though aren't dubstep. Not getting all the backlash from you and Jash
|
| mindleviticus Also, not sure if you read this or not on the Sputnik madness thing but , I call it dubstep because for that's what it is for the first two songs. And I say that it changes in the review as well lol.
|
| mindleviticus You sound so sure, but it's just so weird when they have different opinions on everything and give different names
|
 | IpodMastery hey dude, grats on your promo, guess we should communicate some more : ] well done
|
 | coneren we have hansen man no big deal i mean booth hasnt been great since actually i could make a whole list of people who have sucked im just hoping this has ended. give kassian the week off the fact that he actually had to fight is pretty sad tbh he must have just wanted it bad
|
| coneren dude you cant call kassian an idiot for that fight just because i feel he wants to wake the fuuckin team up but yeah thats pinner hes good and hits hard as fuuck. i honestly hope we seed lower than 3rd just because there isnt as much pressure
|
| coneren yeah it was sweet pinner and sestito are fuucking forces holy shiit those guys can lay the body if we get to the playoffs theyre gonna be killer
|
| coneren oh great you call him weiss wonderful um
|
| clercqie Nah, didn't apply because I just can't review on a regular basis right now. Thanks for the support though :] And you definitely deserve it man. Your reviews are some of the best of the user ones, and you know how to create hype, so that's a definite plus. ;]
|
| andcas why'd you send me that?
|
 | Irving Congrats on the promotion mate. Really happy you made it =)
|
| SgtPepper Oh cool, I look forward to reading it. And thanks.
|
 | Xenophanes Yeah it was funny. I posted that you should get a ghost promo because you were better than everyone else in the discussion. Sobhi then came in and agreed, and without reading our suggestion, Robin pops in and says you should to. So basically we were all on board which speaks volumes of how much we dig ya ;]
|
 | Necrotica Godspeed, I'm guessing? Yeah, I love F#A#, but I still need to let Skinny Fists grow on me a bit more.
|
| SgtPepper Congratulations on the promotion, Adrian. I look forward to your contributor debut. I hope you know about the contrib facebook page. Some of the recently staffed guys like myself are still there if you ever have any questions/concerns about anything. Anyway, again, congrats. Also, just a few more weeks before AD season 4!
|
 | AtomicWaste Congrats on the promo, man! Ghosts represent.
|
| clercqie Whoo! Congratulations on the promotion man :]
|
 | Kris. congrats, bro. one of the few contribs who actually deserve it
|
 | Ignimbrite whoa damn, promo. Congrats! Welcome to the club.
|
| FromDaHood Grats on the promotion. Ignore Alex, he's a bit salty about not getting promoted to staff.
|
 | Omaha Dude! I'm diggin' that tag! ;]
|
| Hep Kat indeed. my wife and I took a group of friends to their show at asbury lanes the other day. We drank, we danced, we made our ancestors proud
|
 | breakingthefragile Really surprised you were promoted, just being honest, but congrats on the new tag. Welcome to the team.
|
| Necrotica Congrats on the promotion, man! \m/
|
| Xenophanes Congrats Adrian. I was bummed we couldn't promote you because you didn't apply, but in the end we didn't care so huzzah! Can't wait to see what ya do with your new tag :)
|
 | Gyromania dude, congratulations! so happy to see that you were promoted. also, that cerulean salt album is really friggin good. cheers
|
| coneren i hope not considering its a joke division
|
| coneren ok we won everything about the team is perfect again
|
| Spare not even gonna bother reading the comments tbh. yo real talk how good is new waxahatchee tho
|
| wabbit you have the best soundoff for the terror.
|
| coneren sedins and sestito then we will be dominant dude edler has been so fuucking horrid its been awful like what the fuuck oh man im going to sleep dude my turntable might be in tomorrow oh man i have to time travel for this
|
| coneren theyre good but mclusky is like my favourite band ever so how about those canucks damn i wish theyd fire AV already
|
| coneren the band mclusky is like the greatest band of all time dude its the 2 dudes in future of the left if you ever listened that that album... its better than that though
|
 | FourthReich **** chicago, they are in another world right now
|
| FourthReich good s***, yeah we are both in desperate need of a good month of march... rip kesler
|
| FourthReich damn good game on tonight hope you're watchin
|
| wabbit you're mostly forgiven.
|
| wabbit Aids you're a f ucking f aggot bro
|
| Atari i stopped watching after the second video because it was.....disturbing lol
|
| Atari by the way i call bulls*** i know for a fact you care about your approval rating...at least a little.
|
| Atari does he hate you or something? it is pretty sad how many alts he has
|
| Atari yeah i saw the conversation in the medthreads lol that's cool though!
|
| Atari nice approval rating ;)
|
 | Winesburgohio haha i totally know what you mean dude, m'pleasure! For what it's worth i'm a user that likes you too beb ;)
|
| Winesburgohio Seriously great work man, i am so pleased you gave it a go and thrilled that you persevered. Couldn't be happier with it POSPOSPOS. I hope you enjoyed your foray! Also thanks for reminding me, i need to get my thing done but in my defence there've been roadtrips to go on interviews with Phil Elvrum to plan etc.
|
| mindleviticus Sputnik sucks dick most of the time becuase a lot of the users act like little kids. Not saying that I don't like to have fun and rate a few albums on here, but I think most of them just don't care about certain reviews for albums and then just be childish about them.
|
| mindleviticus Thanks dude. It doesn't really matter though I just review when I want to and when I feel it's fun
|
 | Douglas I missed you so I'm not leaving... Your like an std
|
| mindleviticus Fuk u man sayin fuk u 2 me? Ur the biggust doofus evr, u shud no that
|
| clercqie Jk though ;] Anyways, check out the new The Men record if you haven't. It's a departure from their last albums, but still pretty darn good. Can't wait to see them live in 2 weeks!
|
| clercqie Just didn't see you as a type that likes brutal hardcore stuff like that (maybe because of the large portion of alt/indie on your pie chart - oh stereotypes).
|
| clercqie In other news: kinda surprised with the high rating you've given Nails. Cool album though, perfect for getting all the frustration out of my system. :p
|
| clercqie Goddamn new Flaming Lips is good!
|
 | Jom I saw your comment about the blog; I agree with you 100%. I get the sense that they think everything needs to be like the year-end feature when that's not the case at all. I'm hoping it picks up once Q1 is in the books and the more highly-anticipated records of the year start getting close. Just wanted to let you know that your comment wasn't being ignored, cheers.
|
| Ire haven't jammed : ( also i like embryonic more than yoshimi
|
 | Havey just wanted to thank you for bringing Shugo Tokumaru to my attention, somehow i've managed to completely miss out on him
|
 | theacademy way to school mother****ers on da orda of operations m/m/m/

 | ITsHxCTOASTER Hey you like skramz, check out this band I'm gonna see on my school's campus in like 3 days http://oddczar.bandcamp.com/ They rule man, I'm hyped and trying to spread the word for these dudes
|

 | Cygnatti http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dp7WWv7tEF4
|
| Cygnatti You should because they are like the best pop punk band ever! :) Try these two songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aan_v2uieKs
|
| andcas deep down you know it's true.
|
| andcas wow, she has some serious mental issues if that's for real lol.
|
| Hep Kat http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=116878
|
| FourthReich he really is, i just read an article on yahoo about him. i still miss nabokov
|
| FourthReich indeed, you guys just have too much depth to not be contenders, you're also missing the american, kesler. but yeah the goalie position for both our teams is quite questionable.
|
| FourthReich indeed i am, i'm not getting comfortable yet at only five games into the season but yeah they're looking sharp. patrick marleau is the hottest man on the planet right now. was expecting a much closer game actually.
|
| clercqie Oh, good calls! Thanks man. The "small or big part" is a bit cryptic language for saying the post-punk tag is a very broad one, and This Heat were lumped in it but it's debatable if they were actually an actual "post-punk band". But yeah, I'll change it a bit to make it clearer
