 | WeepingBanana it's the best album ever (i say that a lot but i'm mostly serious with this one) definitely my favorite since the turn of the decade
|
 | silentpotato have not but i like blackened whatever haha. also awesome band and album name so ill get it
|
 | toxin. you have a serious inferiority complex. why did you accept the premise that classical is elite to begin with! it's all just music, i'm not offended if you hate on anberlin at all. overreacting is all for show. i really don't care what people listen to, if you don't like classical or anberlin and love nickelback and swans, more power to you. you'd be a cool user if you had the same mindset.
|
 | Insurrection I was just asking idk why you got so defensive about it but ok
|
| Insurrection Really dude.. Im sure if you put skele on there (prolly the most hated user on sputnik right now) he wouldve easily made it to the higher rounds if anything by people joke voting. But whatever i was just wondering why you didnt put me on, i thought you had a vendetta against me or something
|
 | wabbit I'm 9/10 proud of that joke
|
| wabbit insurrcan'tgetanerection is dumb
|
| Insurrection Well liked users, yet you include recspecs. Ok i see how it is
|
| Insurrection Oh fair enough, and i was telling her that after i wrote a troll review giving lateralus a 1 i pissed off pretty much the entire userbase but that was a while ago and people dont really give me s*** anymore. Well besides pit, hes a very angry man
|
| Insurrection Thats such bull and you havent even been around lately how would you know?
|
 | Gyromania it's cool man, i'm not even sure that anything can be done now so
|
| Gyromania hey so i'm pretty sure you screwed me
|
 | fromtheinside cone and i were wondering if we could both win. we rule, obvs and do you think anybody would notice? lol
|
 | TheSpirit Pretty good, glad to see you around here more often
|
 | MetallicOpeth aha no worries dude I know in my heart of hearts I won so it's all gravy, as long is it has nothing to do with my amazing username ;) cheers man
|
| wabbit that Lemaitre album is SO ****ING AWESOME! Probably cause awesome things happened when I listened to it but yeah m/
|
 | Yotimi yeah I have 81 and You Are Beautiful. They're pretty good - really like Never Mess With Sunday
|
| WeepingBanana yeah man i love how every song is basically just it's own repeated cadence and it's so sad maybe a little whiney at times but damn catchy as **** too. if i'm so far from your heart why do i feel it beat?
|
 | Aids bro 2.5 for iNTRiKeT do you even know how2electronic?
|
 | Apollo 8% metal m/ That makes you 8% of a man. Hahaha :P how's life?
|
| WeepingBanana if you're still in a slowcore mood, i checked out Rex - C recently and it's pretty sweet
|
| WeepingBanana hey man did you check out that The Black Heart Procession - 2 album i rec'd you? i know i rec you a lot of things that you probably don't have time for but this album just kinda screams seaanemone
|
| wabbit that picture is amazing, is it you playing?And man I was so f-ed up all weekend. M is fantastic.
|
| wabbit how proud are you of that 8% metal in your pie chart?
|
| wabbit classic sea anemone hopping on a hype train timing.
|
| wabbit that feeling when you have 350 elvish archers and 30 ghost dragons one hit kill them all.
|
 | Xenophanes Going through your list is making me completely reanalyze my end of the year list. Bastard. Alio Die is so damn beautiful.
|
 | Winsomniac Bro, you've got some serious explaining to do: http://i.imgur.com/NNS64.jpg
|
 | ThunderNeutral21 uh it depends on the zip, if you could like post the google page where the link is on id love you
|
 | Romulus sorry for the delay whatsup sea? yes that is where i go i hope i'm not too late to help
|
 | Maniac! Yeah I'm more into Lynch-esque movies, but this is entertaining.
|
| Maniac! Watching Royal Tennenbaums for the first time. Better be good.
|
| Maniac! I cleared out a lot of people, guess you got caught in the crossfire.
|
| Aids just saw this "have you heard the Tallahassee cover album yet?"did it leak or get released or something?
|
 | EyesWideShut whats that blue plant thing called in your profile pick?
|
 | Lakes you hurt me deeply in my heart
|
| Aids oh well, at least we agree that Watching From a Distance isn't amazing
|
| Aids i didn't know you didn't like Public Strain :'[
|
 | barcafan21 thought i'd inform you that i checked on the whole 5 star thing and i have one other album where all of the songs are 5 stars: reconstruction site :-)
|
 | Sniff Is the how to dress well album anything of value?
|
 | mallen- Easy aoty candidate, like it so much more than Post-Nothing.
|
| barcafan21 i might prefer keep it like a secret though, idk yet. gotta give them more listens
|
| Romulus tryna get all the pre-college stuff done! it's kind of nervewracking. i have a mini summer bucket list for stuff i never really got around to doing and a small section of it is going to shows, which i somehow never seem to do. i actually just got back from m83, they were pretty unreal. how about you? how's the running/traveling/living?
|
 | porch i was just listening to duster's album stratosphere and it occurred to me that you would possibly enjoy it while listening to pizza
|
 | candle7 You should check out CAPA's Shallow Towers
|
| barcafan21 hey, i remembered you recced Perfect From Now On to me, so i gave it another spin, and it's better than i remembered. so thanks
|
 | CaptainDooRight What are u up to Sea. U should just chill out man. I don't see why ur taking things so personal. Obvs porch wrote u something back that might involve me.
|
| porch careful bro its up to you
|
| CaptainDooRight I felt that was pretty rude of you to personally attack me with those false assumptions. I'm not going to your comment because I'm not ashamed of pathetic words that attempt to cause wildfires. I hope we can be friends someday so I guess it's up to you bro.
|
 | YankeeDudel Hey I see you added Hannibal Montana. My little bro just saw them on Saturday at a local bar because they're from around him. You from Westchester or did you just find out about them willy nilly?
|
 | esther Hey man I noticed you like some of the same bands I do. I wrote and recorded an EP and I was wondering if you could review, rate, or even just listen to it. Here's a link: facebook.com/esther801music
|
| wabbit The earlier albums are way cooler plus they get mentioned in High Fidelity so that makes them better
|
| wabbit So your list had Mezzanine on it. But for seriouses you've never actually listened to the whole thing and you just scroll through your music looking for a wide variety of music so people think you have more board taste than you actually do right?
|
 | SgtPepper Mate, your post-rock list was brilliant. Got some good albums from there, some ive already begun and others that I'll be checking out on my trip. You may have singlehandedly begun my post-rock phase. Anyway, you have great taste and thanks.
|
 | iFghtffyrdmns ok but seriously i feel like anything i mention you'll already know, but here goes: parker, brave bird, bicycle sunday (they're ok), Dads, Ape Up!, Spraynard, Brightside, Coping
|
| iFghtffyrdmns i'm not allowed to be an expert on anything related to punk music man, i work in a cubicle now. my soul and integrity lie hopelessly dormant amongst the tattered remains of my torn up Ten Grand record sleeves.
|
 | Adabelle Haven't but I'll check it out, cheers dude
|
 | sniper01 saw it on music as heroin the other day, i'll give it a shot. just been jammin that suis la lune for emo these days.
|
| CaptainDooRight I want to ask if you would kindly remove your rating from my album. Sorry if I wronged you somewhere but I don't see the purpose of us being against each other in this fashion. Thanks for your attention on the matter:]
|
 | Graveyard It's nice to see a fly pan am fan around these parts, what's your opinion on their debut?
|
| ThunderNeutral21 its not quite as varied in sound as quiet pull the strings, but they've improved at creating a sorrowful atmosphere while still making gorgeous melodies
|
| ThunderNeutral21 yeah i mean every song they have is over dramatic as **** (but hey thats the genre) but **** this new one is excellent. its got a lot of bite yet at the same time it's not exactly 'heavy', it's really atmospheric and beautifully put together. im really loving the hell out of it so far
|
| ThunderNeutral21 one of the reasons i find these guys to make some of the better emotional hardcore music is because they have more character than any of the others. Not every song sounds the same, their singer is easily recognizable and the atmospheric guitar work they can put together is pretty spectacular. their prolly my favorite band from this genre
|
| ThunderNeutral21 thats weird im actually listening to it on youtube right now. wishes and hopes is fantastic. I never dug any of the bands other material quite as hard as Quiet Pull the Strings but this is easily on that level
|
 | SrightryEpic SeaAnemone let's start our own music site just me and you and maybe qwe and relinquished and others and thespirit, k?July 13 11:53 PMthat's my last shout on this account eric;n;
|
| Romulus lol i realized i already told you that REGARDLESS i will never forget
|
| Romulus as fate would have it, i'm going to be attending emory university in the fall so our mutual love for the similarly titled post hardcore band will always be with me wherever i go ; )
|
| Adabelle Idk if you listen to much emo any more but I reviewed Kukim
|
 | AngelofDeath Oh, haha. Yeah, it doesn't sound that good to me, either. Doesn't help that Coors is probably the worst domestic beer. Like I told him, if I want alcoholic tea, I'll stick to Firefly.
|
| wabbit That picture of you was beautiful...retag it
|
| Romulus that sounds incredible. i'd love to go to italy at some point-- i've heard only great things. mega impressed by the marathon too. i could never handle that training. personally i'm going to be attending emory next year, which i'm pretty pumped about if only to live in a much different city for a while. running is up in the air right now, thankfully i'm not held to any sort of commitment for next year so i'm gonna see how the reason of the season plays out and then make a decision
|
| Romulus seaaa saw we were both still alive and felt the need to chat. how is the running career coming along?
|
| wabbit I dunno what we are arguing about. I think it's that you don't like envy enough and the old eric would
|
| Maniac! Go right ahead. I should be easy to find. The Brandon Lewis in the Judo uniform :P
|
| Maniac! haha. For some reason it seems like the community is in a rut lately. It doesn't seem nearly as fun as it used to be. More motivation for me to finish my site, too.
|
| Maniac! I'm to the point now, that I don't really give a s*** about sputnik anymore. I'm not nearly elitist enough to keep up with what is cool to hate nowadays. Gonna listen to Fall Out Boy and Rishloo without shame!
|
| Maniac! haha I know. I do miss you giving me a hundred recs that I never got around to, though.
|
| Maniac! one does not simply quit sputnik
|
| wabbit why did you never rec envy too me you stupid **** s*** ass **** s*** ****.
|
| Aids yeah possibly. I'll be travelling around mainland Europe for a month starting in Amsterdam at the beginning of May before heading to England to work for the summer, so we might try to meet up. Will you be in Italy during May or will you be around other places? cause that'd be sweet to meet up, but I probably won't make it to Italy.
|
| wabbit Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) So How Many Points Do You Have ?till You Gain, You Know, the Ultimate Power? Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) actually, i'm just wearing your glasses Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) It Was Your Heart That Saved You Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) An Idea Is a Greater Monument Than a Cathedral Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) I Am A Snail, And You Are A Pace I Cannot Match Empire! Empire!

|
| porch np man, it's a sweet record for sure. they put on one of the best shows i saw last year as well even though they look old as **** now. small parts isolated and destroyed and 0 plus 2 = 1 are probably the best places to go next, although you prob wont like either of them as much as wrong. still well worth getting though. can't remember if i already recd it to you but bastro's sing the troubled beast is kinda nomeansno-esque too, give it a try
|
| iFghtffyrdmns d'aww thanks eric. miss you around here. well, sort of.
|
| Winsomniac Dude someone raped your ratings too?! Also, how's Italia?
|
 | ConsiderPhlebas I gave up the whole cynical douche thing and went back to being nice, was all a little tiring. You given up reviewing?
|
| wabbit drunk(ish) now...you are an awful human being and I hope gypsies steal all your things. Also Royal Headaches- Royal Headaches get it. Youtube surprise. It's pretty cool. You still suck.
|
 | bakkermaarten007 Saw you like Leonard Cohen, check out Thalia Zedek if you like. She's like a female version of him, even covered 'Dance Me To ...'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AJbSnAwJ6M
|
 | NeutralThunder12 I didn't like it nearly as much as I do now. its like a masterpiece. I love the entire thing. its such a warm, beautifully melodic record. And Paul is really underrated as a songwriter, hes awesome.
|
 | Satellite new menzingers leaked and it mother****ing rules
|
| NeutralThunder12 lemme tell you how much ****ing Welcome to the Night Sky grew on me.
|
| bakkermaarten007 I kinda like it, but probably not as much as you'd hoped me to. But that might be just me thoug=). I'm on a bit of a music burn-out lately =/, I keep looking for my next favourite band but can't find it you know haha .Greetings.
|
| wabbit drunk shoutboxing you cause I have sucked at this lately...even though my new phone has internet so it should be easier or somethin.
|
 | patrickfannon M83's "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming" is f*cking phenomenal. Really interesting, layered, intimate elctronic pop/rock. Thanks for the recommendation, man.
|
 | Deviant. Are you just looking for French stuff though, or just some good electro in general? i can rec either or
|
 | TheVoiceAndTheSnake Once again that list WAS JUST A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS GOD DAMMIT. If you think my ideology of "No More Stories" is incorrect, then that's fine. But Post-Rock has a lot to do with ambient passages, progressive music, odd time signatures, dynamics, etc.
|
| TheVoiceAndTheSnake Most of that list was just a stream of consciousness. I know I missed some pretty big ones, like the artists you mentioned. As for the ones which you claim have no post-rock influence, I was talking about the album by those artists, not the artist themselves in general.
|
 | JWT155 Currently trolling sonic for ya bro
|
 | Trebor17 Dude come back and review Empire! Empire!'s new s***
|
 | RosaParks HEY!! CONGRATS!!! LET'S THROW A PARTY!!!! HAVE YOU EVEN HEARD I GET WET!!!!?
|
 | AggravatedYeti and after you finish laughing...it's time to turn into a frog yourself!!
|
| Yotimi Dude, you're awesome. Can't wait for this now
|
 | crazyblinddude Holy s*** this is awesome Eric! Thanks man. I probably never would have known about this if it wasn't for you. Thanks a ton!
|
| JWT155 Sounded like a pleasant weekend in the valley lol I was pretty gone last weekend myself.
|
| Romulus okay a) SCORE you're back and b) i don't know i just feel kind of odd listening to a small child talk about frogs. although seriously the high points on that album are like 10000/5. i'm actually extremely pleased you 5'd it... could be album of the year for me and most likely will be home to my song of the year
|
| wabbit at least I'm not scrobbling justice
|
| crazyblinddude Yeah, man, no problem. I knew the list was still gonna be in the cache for a while, and you put a fair amount of work into it, so would be a shame to see it go to waste. Also, it was one of the best lists I've seen and it's really useful. It was my pleasure, man.
|
| Adabelle The site misses your immense emo/screamo knowledge.
|
| wabbit and to whatever extent you hate yourself...it isn't enoughLike the MONITOR more
|
| Maniac! I already got that. Moar plz
|
| Maniac! Rec me moar dream pop. Trespassers William/Mazzy Star style.
|
| Aids hey there ho there stop lurking and throw those ratings back up. also, pretty lame you got all your listsd you ****er your collection of lists was supreme
|
 | andcas stop being a little baby and come back seaanemone : )
|
 | Parallels hey i just wanted to say i appreciate you :) even though i havent really talked to you since you commented on my pretty girls make graves review.
|
| Romulus aw sea you're the best. i have to go head out to xc practice amusingly enough but really you should stop by more, it's very lonely here without you
|
 | HallucinogeNick someone seems to be getting in a Count Your Lucky Stars mood. Right on. Now just 5 Third Eye Blind and everything will be in its right place.
|
| wabbit sorry man. Got a new phone, it's a touch screen...s hit's hard when you're drunk. But last night was awesome.
|
| wabbit ya I know. If the mods didn't know who I was I'd get my account banned.
|
| wabbit just cause downer likes good music does not mean his taste in facial hair should be copied.
|
| wabbit ...you could just mention how you had already planned to quit like a month ago. But seriously shave whatever the f u c k you are growing on your face.
|
 | Hawks Ahhh Sea, you always talked about how I always cried to the mods and I took things too seriously. How ****ing ironic.
|
 | danielito19 you know I kind of seriously appreciated having you on this site eric too bad the guy who listens to one band and has 20,000 comments on a music site is a douche
|
 | FromDaHood Peace out bro. I'm listening to Northstar to honor you tonight.
|
| wabbit didn't have a computer...drank half a handle and smoked a bunch and listened to godspeed with the bros cause the girls left cause we were being dicks or something (which we totally were)
|
 | Tyrael RIP man, fare thee well
|
 | sehguh Goodnight, Sweet Prince
|
 | Emim d....................elete
|
| Emim you should the userbase next
|
 | Baphomet the ****? I hope you're not really gone mate
|
 | Scoot ummmmm what the ****
|
| Aids woah now whats going on hur
|
| iFghtffyrdmns ahh thanks be to Kilgore Trout, I was a little worried that your blatant hipster-dom was starting to lose some of its flair and integrity
|
 | acorncheese (no i legitimately just try to act cool since i'm on da internet)
|
| acorncheese oh boy. what an insult. once again you sound dumb as s***
|
 | TheStefan I won't. I don't lack empathy, I just don't think it belongs in politics. I'm a pretty nice and sane guy when it comes to every day life.
|
| TheStefan That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Respect that I have mine. I am not wrong. Neither are you. We just see things differently. It's weird how you can't accept that, especially when you are preaching a gospel of acceptance and harmony between all humans.
|
| TheStefan I don't endorse it. I think if you are judging a president on maintaining/expanding the nation and providing security to its inhabitants, then yeah. It's justifiable. It's not an untrue generalization. According to your logic, everyone who has ever taken a smack at another person for their own good has violated your code of rights and should be denounced. My point is that the US would be nothing without a couple atrocities. It's irrefutable, and the president's job is to benefit the nation.
|
| TheStefan Sure, it's horrible. I'm not going to deny that. I'm just saying that the US emerged as a powerful nation because of the pain of others. It's irrefutable. Unfortunately, that's how things work. If you don't like it, then you can denounce essentially all of the presidents who have ever expanded the US's economic, social, or political presence anywhere in the world. Without it, we would probably never exist as a nation because the initial colonies would have been wiped out by Native Americans.
|
| TheStefan I read plenty of literature. I'm just not as compassionate as the average human being when it comes to government. Sometimes the president needs to be a dick to do his job well. I feel like I'm not even the one being ignorant. I completely understand where people would oppose my beliefs, I just choose to stick with them. I also completely understand where other people's beliefs stem from. I just choose to oppose them because in the grand scheme of things, it's less progressive for the nation.
