 | WeepingBanana no idea what this is but thanks, will get to it when i can
|
 | Josh D. WELL THEY'RE ALL ON SPUTNIK SO QUIT DICKIN AROUND AND LISTEN. And then, you know, throw that list on over.
|
 | Iluvatar wait what when did this even get announced
|
| Josh D. Might as well. I spend most of my time listening to music when I'm at home. Lately I've been listening to Nils Frahm, The Tumbled Sea, Efterklang, Frameworks, and a little bit of Acres.
|
| Josh D. Plus I live in Austin now. I've got plenty of things to do. Although I'm on Twitter endlessly.
|
| Josh D. I have commented a couple times every 5 or 6 months. Not particularly by design, just this site has been such a tumor for so long I finally got tired of it. I still use it to find music from time to time, but rarely post. The only people I'd care to interact with are on FB anyway (and I hate that damn site too).
|
 | Wolfhorde barely, 5 PM right now. for me eve starts in an hour.
|
 | pizzamachine haha yeah I'm actually on this site often, I just don't comment that much. Don't worry though you won't need to find a pizza replacement ;)
|
 | aok facebook group
|
 | JamieTwort Downloading now, I'll give it a listen later and let you know what I think.
|
| JamieTwort Yeah I did, haven't listened to it for a long while though, need to give it another spin at some point.
|
 | Puzzles greetings omni, I recall that you liked that record I put out last year, here is the music video I just finished for a new track. let me know what you think bro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3DvjNSZy84
|
 | Kman418 i'm not actually being serious in that religion thead btw I just felt like ****ing around a little :p
|
| JamieTwort I think I listened to some of that Growlers album a while ago, I seem to remember that I wasn't too impressed but I'll give it another listen to make sure. I'll check out The Black Angels too, thanks bro.
|
| JamieTwort Cool, I'll definitely give it a listen. I've been listening to a lot of Purling Hiss recently. I really like their self-titled album which is quite a lot different from Waters on Mars, it's more psychedelic and fuzzy with less alt-rock influences.
|
| JamieTwort No I haven't actually, been meaning to though. I'll check it out soon.
|
 | demigod93 Subhumans! those guys don't get enough credit around here, The Day the Country died is such a great punk rock album
|
| demigod93 ok cool, yeah ive heard bad brains and minor threat, will check out the Dickies, can't get enough 80s hardcore. Walls of Jericho sound cool as well. And I actually checked out that Hatebreed album the other day, killer stuff. I love how well the songs flow
|
 | Voivod I liked the album a lot, rated it too, gonna try and write a text next month, because I have some promos to clear out plus the unavoidable real life issues..
|
| Voivod Hey check this out: http://www.metalsucks.net/2013/04/19/unsigned-and-unholy-morality-crisis-agnes-vein-before-the-eyewall/
|
| demigod93 ah cool. Haven't heard those other bands you've mentioned before actually, will have to check. Always thought Hatebreed were a bit of a joke honestly, which of their albums would you say is their best? I prefer the more raw and visceral stuff when it comes to hardcore.
|
| demigod93 hey Omni, i saw your 4.5 on Madball's Set it Off. kinda surprised me-didn't know you were into early metalcore/hardcore. got any recs? I can't get enough of the stuff.
|
 | RosaParks you did good. don't get down. kris is banned too
|
| JamieTwort Listening to that Purling Hiss album and it's really good. It reminds me of a modern version of Killing Floor's Out of Uranus at some points.
|
| JamieTwort Will do. It will be a little while before I can get on my computer but I'll let you know as soon as I have.
|
| JamieTwort Listening to a few of the songs on Youtube as I couldn't find a working link. Sounds great. Lolita rocks hard.
|
| JamieTwort Oh right, it looked more like stoner rock/heavy psych from the cover. Sounds interesting though.
|
| JamieTwort I'll check it out, thanks. It certainly looks like something I'd dig judging by the artwork.
|
| pizzamachine lol I downloaded the album and it's CRAZY, good stuff
|
 | CaptainDooRight album is done: http://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/black-horse-plague
|
 | PuddlesPuddles I was just about to find a way to call for help because I need new music desperately. This is why you reign supreme. Any standouts?
|
 | Jethro42 Yes I do, but I'm not sure about how it works to add somebody. Can I add yours instead?
|
 | Trebor17 No, there's this meme type picture of the Heroes album cover, but you see whose hands those are
|
 | Tyrael Ensiferum's self titled, check it :D
|
| JamieTwort Ah yes I've heard some of Tame Impala's first album, which I liked but never checked out their new album for some reason. I will correct that, thanks. I actually really like the band Pond (in the database as 'Pond (AU)') who are apparently a Tame Impala side project. Beard, Wives, Denim was among my favourite albums of last year.
|
| Tyrael You can leave the U it's too formal :] Clercqie is also belgian (dutch) though!
|
| Tyrael I only hope some day I can kick em in the **** em slash
|
| Tyrael Comparing you to andcas damn these people must pay for their sins
|
| Tyrael There is if I'm losing because of some people that despise me (kitsch, wabbit) :/
|
| Tyrael Dude I'm gonna lose to ****ing pianotuna you gotta win bro
|
 | coneren the team with the most penalties wins!
|
| coneren sweet i can definitely party in there by myself
|
| coneren it better because im going to spend most of my time there for eye gouging
|
| coneren oh my god id be fuuckin stoked
|
| coneren they dont mind i asked them
|
| coneren quit work to become a full time alcoholic
|
| Wolfhorde Eh, depends. As Zack already said, Post-Metal gets stale reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally quickly.
|
| Wolfhorde Also, Zack totally nailed it about Post-Metal.
|
| Voivod You are welcome, I will listen to the album and see if I can do it justice in due time :-).
|
 | AngelofDeath Probably a 2.5. But post-metal is just a genre that's almost impossible to sound original or even interesting in. All the ideas and tenants of the genre are just so recycled. Hell, I think even Neurosis is starting to run out of ideas. The album kind of hints at doom at times, but without vocals to tie everything together or provide some kind of extra dynamic to the music, it just sort of falls flat.
|
| AngelofDeath As far as staffers, Voivod is probably your best bet.
|
| AngelofDeath I've spent a little bit of time with it, but it's just not making any sort of statement to me. One thing I will say is that it desperately needs some vocals.
|
| Wolfhorde I don't even know what that is but wait, you do have FB?
|
| Wolfhorde Ugh, why do you not have FB or something alike. I just remembered why I don't like coming here all that often. Having a proper debate with the old man without all the crazy Sputnik around would be sweet.
|
 | Underflow Yeah, the amount of foreign aid we're giving to other countries is atrocious considering how ****ed we are here at home. Something that' bothered me of late though is the partisan worship of each president. I mean, there are so many policies that continue from pres to pres and yet those polices, when executed by the opposition are "ruining the country while when executed by "our guy" are conveniently ignored by so many. That's why I draw on the bush Obama similarities.
|
| Underflow Don't know how much you care, but you may find this interesting http://www.humblelibertarian.com/2011/08/bush-20-100-ways-barack-obama-is-just.html
|
 | BigHans ah sweet fist hard thanks man
|
| BigHans No what you talkin bout Willis
|
 | fish. lol I actually meant that he was gonna run out of words to use for usernames but cool
|
 | Yazz_Flute It's up there with Fire! Orchestra! as my favorite jazz release of 2013 thus far.
|
 | klap yeah i've listened but haven't paid too much attention yet, will rectify that later today most likely. always been a fan of his. will check out mason too
|
 | foxblood how you feelin about the new bowie album dude? it has a couple of my favorite songs from him in a long time. but i can tell it's an album that i'll need to explore a lot more to properly appreciate
|
| BigHans lol sorry man guess its 90s day. Dont have Clutch yet need it hard.
|
 | Hawks I justd it myself. Didn't even feel like getting banned over it because I knew it was coming.
|
| Hawks Yeah dude he's a giant retard. By far the worst user this site has ever seen, and that's really saying something.
|
| Hawks I'm assuming you're referring to Skele? Lol
|
| JamieTwort I remember seeing it on one of those lists but I haven't checked it out so thanks for the reminder bro.
|
| JamieTwort Despite showing obvious influences from classic prog bands, the band has their own sound which makes it hard to compare them to any other modern prog acts.
|
| JamieTwort Hmm it's hard to compare Beardfish to a single band, each of their albums has a different sound to it. I'd say Mammoth and The Void are their best. The former has quite a strong Canterbury influence, the jazzy sections are reminiscent of the likes of Caravan and Soft Machine but the album has a much heavier sound overall than either of those bands. The Void borders on progressive metal and has some Gentle Giant influences in there.
|
| CaptainDooRight sweet thanks bro, much appreciated, I'll def check that out
|
 | VisionsFromTheDarkSide Fair enough man, I'll try and get it done by Friday but I'm busy with gigs and things but yeah, I'll get it done soon
|
| VisionsFromTheDarkSide Hey dude, just wondering, is there a specific time we have to get our reviews done (for the random review game)?
|
| coneren wel i mean id go down to watch the canucks play either team anyway and anytime i ever watch a hockey game in any league the team i cheer for usually loses
|
| coneren its cheaper to fly down there and watch a game than to buy one here me and my friend might go watch one there or phoenix
|
| coneren i remember and i am really mad you told me to try harder and i was laughing becasue well yeah thats gr8 how are you im going to the arena soon to watch hockey ive been sober lately help
|
 | KimmsightMatters Thanks! I'll check it out. Have to get some work done though - I fell behind in school and have a LOT of work to do this weekend, plus I have to study for two midterms. I'll send you a Facebook message next week if I survive my weekend. Hope you enjoy yours!
|
| KimmsightMatters I didn't ever see that list - I'm so sorry to hear that. I remember when my mom miscarried, it was not easy for the family.
|
| KimmsightMatters Guitar player is my brother Travis. Drummer is his buddy Max. They were in a band together.
|
 | toxin. Haha, maybe. That user is pretty harmless all things considered we might have gone at him a bit too much
|
 | silentpotato haha well thanks for looking. and yeah im sure ill be able to find it on what.cd in flac or anything. will look into it. anyways ill send you another album soon here, was on vacation back to the homeland and didnt have my computer with me.
|
| silentpotato didnt even know it existed! i should probably check it out, i do love that album but my one gripe with it was with production. I'm into everything to straight lofi noise so usually thats not a problem but with a more alternative/pop rocky sound i think the album gets a little grating to listen to if im not in the mood. maybe some remaster magic would smooth that out. and ill find something for you shortly!
|
| silentpotato that factor right there is literally the ONLY part of that album that made me skeptical of your enjoyment haha. before i sent it to you i thought "i wonder if this is too noisy... ah **** it." if your still down to review it thats cool otherwise i can give u something else if you'd prefer
|
| BigHans m/. Brandons site looks good btw
|
| silentpotato i dont care u can neg review it the only point is to get more reviews out there. i thought ud dig it tho
|
| BigHans lol that movie is so ****ing dated. Rules though. Cameron Crowe m/
|
| BigHans K I did it anyway. Holy crap first song sounds like Beatles
|
| BigHans not yet I dont dare download while at work
|
| silentpotato your album for the review game is Medicine-Shot Forth Self Living
|
| BigHans never heard of it. IVe been seriously off the grid. I havent listened to more than 5 new albums in the last year. Would I like it? Does it rawk?
|
 | AliW1993 I'm not really familiar with their older stuff. I heard their previous record once a while back but it didn't really make much of an impression. I really like Let It All In, though, so I'm going to give them a little more time.
|
 | Apollo Fair enough man. What do you think of Oceania?
|
| Apollo Zeitgeist a 1! Dude, Bleeding the Orchid is an awesome song. I'd say it's at least a 2.5 (I think I need to drop my rating that being said lol)
|
| toxin. Awesome, thanks for the rec! I can't believe I'm going to listen to music on MySpace again.
|
 | Yotimi Whoa that's just weird then... She's 8 months - most of the reason I haven't been on here as much this past year.
|
| Yotimi Pretty sweet. Did u know i had a daughter named Autumn? Plus that band is from my hometown
|
 | FancyM8 call me skele ill kick your ass you dink dont think i wont do it ill make a video of it beforehand too showing about how tough and badass i am you pussy
|
| JamieTwort No I haven't and no I don't think you have. I'll check it out, thanks.
|
 | MysteriousNewUser all stuff haha. And im not skele at all, ive been lurking for awhile. and no you wouldnt lol everyone hates skele xD
|
| MysteriousNewUser im actually not skele, been lurking for about 6 weeks now yano and decided to make an account. mainly into alt rock if you know any good recs
|
 | DarkInfernal I've reviewed Magnapop, hope you like it - http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/54621/Magnapop-Magnapop/
|
| Tyrael Ah, now I feel stupid :[
|
| Tyrael 'I just assumed you'd gotten a life or a boy/girl friend.' NO -.-
|
| KimmsightMatters Well I guess having kids is about self-sacrifice. Can't argue with you there! But you are exploring new aspects of your own character and tackling new challenges, so you still are you! Just in a different way.
|
| KimmsightMatters Well, slow is good but slow is defined differently by different people. It's complicated, but I've been more focused on other things. ie school. Family time is good...I'm sure it's more exciting than you make it sound ;)
|
| KimmsightMatters Thanks for the recs! Will check them out for sure. Things are still going slow with the 'boy toy'...hoping to see him this weekend anyways now that we're living in the same city. How've you been? Anything fun and exciting going on in your world?
|
 | BSX Thanks, you too!
|
 | Inveigh You too man! Hope you had a good one
|
| Jethro42 Bonne Annee, omni. Best wishes!
|
| JamieTwort Oh btw I got Zephyr's self-titled album on vinyl recently. Put it on my list that I made earlier.
|
| JamieTwort Same to you dude. Jamming some John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers atm.
|
 | MichaelSnoxall Thinking that doesn't really help, because I know I'm not in a bad position in life and I know how worse off others are. I dedicated over two years of school art projects to poverty in third world countries a couple of years ago.
|
| RosaParks that's okay. i've been posting over there with a different account and i really can't stand the people there. it's like they all have progmaster personality
|
| RosaParks I'm not sure. Whoever banned me didn't give a reason
|
 | Vesper I still go on this thing like... once a month, haha. I just see s***ty lists though and leave without commenting, though. :/
|
 | cinaedus Haha. I thought I remembered you being an older user
|
| Puzzles The other EP I put out this year! I may have forgot to mention it ahha
|
| Jethro42 Gotcha by ''project''...You meant my novel, didnt you. Well it's still on a shelf for now. I still have a lot to do, but I will. Thanks for asking.
|
| Puzzles hah! thanks man, I appreciate that a lot. Only thing is, I changed the name to Occupants early in the year- it's in the database though, if you want to edit it! cheers omni
|
| JamieTwort Nice. I've been listening to a lot of early Fleetwood Mac and Peter Green lately.
|
 | ReturnToRock And as for me ****ing up, it's not an 'if', it's a 'when'.
|
| ReturnToRock Thanks for your input. I just really really REALLY don't want this to end like 98% of my other attempts at dating girls, since this one a. means more to me b. actually lives with me, so we need to be in good terms.
|
| JamieTwort Hey omni, was a tad surprised to see you list Minstrel in the Gallery as your favourite Tull album. Awesome album though, easily in my top 5.
|
| Wolfhorde That's why I said overly, strict I can get - as long as it's reasonable and doesn't go into the 'angry strict' territory where adults become childish.
|
| Wolfhorde C'mon, I mean you seem like you're educated, you don't seem like you're overly strict or serious and your musical repertoire is quite versatile.
|
| Wolfhorde Hey, at least it will have an awesome dad with an awesome music taste!
|
| Wolfhorde Favorite, **** yeah. I've been pretty trashed for the last couple o' days and I was sick for 10 days but all's chill right now. How are you doing my old omni?
|
| JamieTwort You might be interested in this list: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=108605
|
 | Sniff Who'll be the woman in the relationship?
|
| Sniff Such a cute name. How do we afford a kid? I'm quitting my job in three weeks...
|
| Sniff We'll raise him to be a moderator that's not a pussyface!
|
| Sniff You wanna adopt: http://www.ihaveapc.com/wp-content/uploads//2010/12/cute-kid-picture-wallpaper-2560x1600.jpg with me?
|
 | ReturnOfTheDnor She had a pretty big problem with drinking and smoking weed. Like, I'm not one to say NEVER do them, but it was kind of a past time for her. She's apparently cleaned up and cut back.
|
| ReturnOfTheDnor http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/38514_1340796364851_6289413_n.jpgchica on the right. it's the one who bought me the big 4 tickets last year.
|
 | Emim http://dl.dropbox.com/u/98738770/90s.txt never used dropbox before, but it's pretty handy
|
| Emim Damn, you've been busy, man!
|
| Emim Probably would be best to wait, because I have work in a bit.
|
 | pothead turns out i had to do this;http://thewalkmanblog.blogspot.pt/2011/01/service-menu-access.htmland set audio to maxout, it's fine now **** YEAH!
|
| PuddlesPuddles I googled, I investigated, I craved. Do you think I can Netflix this bad boy
|
| JamieTwort Cool. I've been jamming some Killing Floor (great heavy psych/blues rock band) and Bloomfield Kooper
|
| JamieTwort I've got an iPhone, thanks anyway. I'll get round to it eventually.
|
| JamieTwort Yes you're right. Can't be a bad thing if you actually had to check and see if it was Tull haha. Not sure when I'll get round to checking out Haymarket Square as I won't have access to a computer for a while (I'm on my phone atm) but it's on my list of stuff to check out so I won't forget.
|
 | taylormemer Oh god, miscommunication on my part. Now I look even more stupid. See now that's me over analysing, so obvious now. Probably would have helped if a) I knew your age already, b) understood what you actually said without looking at it from a complex point of view. 35 though... wow! I thought you were around 27 or something. Cheers for the clarification, and sorry. :/
