  • Eclecticist Nope! They are pretty well distributed but you may have to go to a store that sells uncommon beers from around the world. It's from Trinidad
    May 6 11:49 AM
  • Eclecticist Have you ever tried a beer called Carib? I recently had it at a pub here in Ottawa and I am infatuated with how smooth and delicious it it! I'm picking some up tonight. This week the weather is suppose to be consistently glorious.

  • Eclecticist Needs Hans, Angel, monthly devstep lists, Dryden, s***ty and frequent Hawks reviews, and a plethora of other users/canny tendencies of the userbase back that I can't remember off the top of my head because I am tired.
    April 15 11:47 PM
  • Eclecticist I don't as much as I used to but yea it's not uncommon for me to log on here and see something interesting on the front page or in a list that I later look up and end up liking. I just wish people shared music like they used to in the earlier days of this site. Back when an album could go from 12 ratings to 345 in less than two days.
    April 15 11:42 PM
  • Eclecticist It's pretty good. Connecting with the users there is really fun and has good vibes. Though sputnik is still the mecha for strange album trends and music sharing.
    April 15 11:37 PM
  • Eclecticist haha yea right as if that were ever actually the case even when this site actually was really cool. I think I actually spend more like on Maniac!'s site than on sput and all I do is log on occasionally to edit staff reviews
    April 15 11:34 PM
  • geasoftime I don't know if you're aware, but Warning broke up and formed 40 Watt Sun. Their album The Inside Room is just as good as the one you mentioned.
    April 15 11:31 PM
  • Eclecticist idt I am going to lose cred-stars but even if I do idgaf because this site is not nearly as meaningful to me as it was a few years ago when I was in high-school.
    April 15 11:28 PM
  • Eclecticist haha you never know! it could! but if that were to happen it would be later in time. The National aren't ever a band I recommend on sputnik because they are already really popular but I definitely agree with majority opinion that Boxer is a must-have album
    April 15 11:25 PM
  • Eclecticist lol well ignore hype-listeners they ruin all music not just National music
    April 15 11:20 PM
  • Eclecticist Yea it's a really great night-time album!
    April 15 11:19 PM
  • Eclecticist Don't listen grudgingly man! Clear your head and give it a go then.
    April 15 11:18 PM
  • Eclecticist Though the latter doesn't really align with the lyrical themes always, it's the tone that negates those sort of visuals.
    April 15 11:16 PM
  • Eclecticist I'm not really all that into their other albums but Boxer really connects to me for three reasons. It's lyrically interesting to follow the singer's narrations, the music is really well co-ordinated and passionate, and every time I listen to the album I feel: a) as though I am walking through well-lit city streets late at night on a rainy day, or b) in a semi-lit condominium after the best sex of my life looking out a window at a rainy, dark sky, into the city thinking with deep melancholy.
    April 15 11:15 PM
  • Eclecticist Is that a serious question or are you just trying to 'Start A War'? ;)
    April 15 10:10 PM
  • ChuckyTruant ty bro
    April 15 10:06 PM
  • geasoftime Hopefully you give Time a second listen. I had given it a 3.5 my first listen, and bumped it significantly the second time I heard it. I feel like it's a grower type of album.

    April 9 07:07 PM
  • CaptainDooRight oh yea haha I have no doubts about that, I've seen it happen to so many users time and time again
    April 9 05:22 PM
  • CaptainDooRight thanks man, I feel honored to be able to share my music with everyone. I'm definitely glad it's being rec'd well. Everyone's encouragment has a been a great support for me and everyone's been really kind too. However, I really wasn't expecting everyone to like it as much as they did. I've already begun writing for my next album but it'll be much different. It'll be 100% pure death metal favoring the styles of Death, Atheist, and early early Gorgutz. I hope I can pull it off.
    April 9 05:11 PM
  • CaptainDooRight hey thanks brother of brothers :]

    April 1 02:09 PM
  • lyon1535 How do you feel about that? I imagine that the withdrawal from energy drinks would actually make you tired -_- I've been drinking tons of tea for several months now, it's something that sorta just developed because the tea tasted good and there weren't any side effects from having a lot of it
    April 1 12:34 AM

  • WhereSleepIsRest ive noticed lol, well ive read quite a few of yours and i enjoy youre style, informative and objective which is what a review should be. i been thinking of doing a few reviews of my own considering some of my favorite albums havent had a review done yet just havent had the time to really sit down a do one. i expect ill get on it soon though
    March 27 11:32 PM
  • andcas huh?
    March 27 11:08 PM
  • WhereSleepIsRest lol agreed its truly something to behold... the insane vocals and the super complex music make for a totall original experience. so i thank you for introducing a completely new band for me. and by the way i always enjoy reading your reviews keep up the good work bro lol
    March 27 11:04 PM
  • WhereSleepIsRest good call on SikTh rec for Calc.... man crazy band all around
    March 27 01:34 PM
  • Omaha It should be really great. i had the privilege of meeting Casey this weekend, and it definitely put the group into perspective for me. The album definitely seems like a continuation of the style explored on White, which I was a fan of. Not sure how I'll enjoy a whole album of it though!
    March 26 05:52 PM
  • Omaha Send a pair of headphones my way, and I'll see what I can do. I was all set to listen to the new Dear Hunter album, and then I realized I left my pair at home =/

    March 20 02:08 PM
  • YoYoMancuso yeah it's one of my favorite albums for sure, although Teeth Like God's Shoeshine is the pinnacle of the band. Life Like Weeds is my backup depression song, with Elliott Smith's "Between The Bars" being my go-to track when I'm down.
    March 16 08:10 PM
  • YoYoMancuso music is certainly a great way to do that. if you haven't listened to Modest Mouse's first three albums I recommend them (based on your last.fm charts). They're really powerful and helped me out quite a bit.
    March 16 07:35 PM
  • YoYoMancuso read your last list, how you been?

    December 25 10:46 PM
  • Aids well the whole album obviously rules but if I had to pick song from it for them to play live, it'd be Polaroids, Counterparts (if only for "sweater"), and A Dagger Through the Heart. maybe The Kennedy Curse too.
    December 23 03:09 AM
  • Aids word, that was my 5th time seeing them, so the s*** from oc/yc doesn't bug me at all. It's just too bad that they only ever play those 3 from s/t. I mean they're 3 ****ing awesome songs, but they play like 7 from the new one why not throw in fcking Polaroids of Polarbears or something every once in a while? 44 though, always amazing live.
    December 23 02:28 AM
  • Aids nvm just checked online. we got the same setlist except they played CS vs HR like 5 songs later for us, and you got To A Friend instead of Get Fighted. And while To A Friend is my favourte aof tune, I still think I win because not seeing them play Get Fighted at their last ever show would have seriously made me cry. you didn't even get to yell "maybe music isn't dead, maybe we all just forgot what it fcking sounded like......I!!! FOR-GOTTTTT! I!!! FOR! GOTTTTT!" oh man sry fer yer loss.
    December 23 12:39 AM
  • Aids did they play any of the following songs?: --Charlie Sheen vs. Henry Rollins --To A Friend --Hey, It's Your Funeral Mama --Crisis --anything from Dog's Blood except the song "Dog's Blood" (which I'm sure they played)
