So I bought Yank Crime awhile ago and borrowed

Ben Harper - [I]Live From Mars[/I]
The Cure - [I]Bloodflowers[/I]
Spiritualized - [I]Let it Come Down[/I]
Chemical Brothers -[I]Surrender[/I]
Mercury Rev - [I]All is Dream[/I]
Smashing Pumpkins - [I]Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness[/I]

and some other stuff from ze library yesterday.

I think I'm gonna have a good week.

I've bene crazy digging Mission of Burma and Jawbox.

After a few trials and tribulations, I eventually got Yes' "Close to the Edge" epic downloaded from Zappa. It is pure awesomeness, especially Rick Wakeman's use of keyboards. Those rarely catch my attention, but the way they come in during the... third act?... is bliss.

I've been listening to a hell of a lot of Hopesfall lately

I've listened to Silent Alarm about 25 times since realizing that I actually liked it.

Anyone got any ideas on what Nick Cave album I should get next? I've only got [I]Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus[/I]. I'm thinking maybe [I]The Boatman's Call[/I].

The only other one I've got is [i]Murder Ballads[/i], and it's awesome.

But I was talking to a massive Nick Cave fan a few days ago, and he swears that [i]Tender Prey[/i] is the best.

Yeah, I've nearly bought [I]Murder Ballads[/I] a few times 'cause I've heard how good it is.

I have [I]Let Love In[/I] by Nick Cave, and I think it's fantastic. A good next buy.

There's too-bloody-many to choose from.

I'm digging David Byrne right now.

I went to his concert a couple of days ago, it was amazing. He played much more Talking Heads stuff than I thought he would, and his solo stuff was mostly great too. Only downside was the fairly dead audience, but it was still an awesome show.

Get [I]Murder Ballads, From Her To Eternity, Let Love In, No More Shall We Part, Tender Prey, The Boatman's Call[/I] and [I]Henry's Dream[/I].

Get them in that order, and get them now.

Done and Done.

[QUOTE=el doctor]Do they (he) tour with a band? I want to try and get a friend or two to see M83 live but I really don't want to go just to see some guy playing with his keyboard all night.[/QUOTE]

I think theres like 5 of them who tour. It's not just him anyway. I think it has it on their record label's website.


I've been digging The Music and Tomahawk and for some reason, I made another attempt to like black metal. It didn't work.

I'm also trying to dig Brainiac...

Lately. . . .

old songs. just a random list. such as:

Whitesnake - Here I Go Again
Night Ranger - Sister Christian
Christopher Cross - Sailing
Chaka Khan - Through the Fire
The Clash - Should I Stay Or Should I Go
Blue Oyster Cult - Burnin For You
The Fixx - One Thing Leads to Another
Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over
Loverboy - Working For the Weekend

I'm rocking out today. I just listened to QOTSA. ooh yeah.

hrrmmm...
Just got a Bjork's Greatest Hits DVD with her videos for Valentine's Day... so I've been watching that. But I've also been spinning The Smiths - [i]Meat is Murder[/i]

a friend lent me estradasphere - buck fever, im yet to listen through it all but it seems quite a demanding listen, some good stuff in their

The Go! Team
Apostle of Hustle

amazing lo-fi indie bands <3

I just DL'ed some Hot Snakes, and am very pleased...

Also: the live version of 'Drive' that Incubus does now is 10000000x's better than the original. I like the low-key, lounge feel to it, as well as the main bassline, and Mike's soloing at the end.

i've been listening to alot by these bands so far this week:

The Bees
I Am Kloot
The Bravery
Notwist
Guided By Voices
The Walkmen

I'm particularly listening to alot of Guided By Voices, I heard about them years ago but for some stupid reason i've only just decided to download more songs rather than just listening to 'Teenage FBI'.

Get Let Love In or The Boatman's Call.

Murder Ballads is awesome too, but it turns to **** in the second half.

i [i]finally[/i] got some stuff by M83. I got "Dead Cities...", but, it's not as good as the "Don't Save Us From The Flames" single. So I'm most likely going to get the album that tracks off of as well.

My latest Purchases:
At The Drive-In - Acrobatic Tenement
Cursive - Domestica
Joy Division - Closer

For some reason,I've been listening to hip-hop almost all the time.

Ol' Dirty Bastard
MF Doom
Madvillian
Kool Keith
Pep Lover

Mooney Suzuki
Bearsuit

Yeah, I've really enjoyed this album. It's not a monumental step in this angular rock that's so popular, but I think they refine a few things in it to provide a sound which is appealing enough.

It's Talking Heads night. I listened to [I]Talking Heads: 77, More Songs About Buildings And Food,[/I] and [I]Fear of Music[/I] right in a row, and now that [I]Fear of Music[/I] has finished up, I started [I]Remain in Light.[/I]

Wow.

I haven't listened to Remain In Light for weeks... I think my girlfriend has it. :eek:

You know you're listening to a fantastic band when you can put on their first 4 (conceivably 5) releases and listen straight through without skipping a single track.

I'm obsessed.
