How is that? I'm quite intrigued by the concept.

I've decided to actually proplerly listen to the Smashing Pumpkins this past few days (for some reason or another I've never really listened to them). Years too late but oh well, good band.

Also been liking this week:

Drive Like Jehu - (no album just a collection of songs I have on my pc)
Elbow - Cast Of Thousands
At The Drive In - Relationship Of Command (yeah I know like years too late)
Hot Snakes (same as Drive Like Jehu).

Nothing really out of the ordinary. For the most part it's basically just techno pop made with surgery noise samples. Most of the time you won't recognize the samples, except for the occasional "squish squish". Still, it's an amusing listen and it creeps you out when you think about it. They remind me of The Soft Pink Truth and a little bit of Ratatat, to give you an idea.

How come "McLusky Does Dallas" throws my face down on a curb and stomps at it untill the album finishes. Then I just want my head stomped in just a bit more.

Yeah, it's that awesome.

Mastodon/Isis/Jesu/Mare/Pelican

Seeing Mastodon/Cult of Luna next week, and since I haven't heard the Luna yet, I'm making due with their peer-ish peeps.

YDload 04-27-2005 08:55 PM

Hey Nacho I just want you to know that I'm enjoying [i]Source Tags and Codes[/i] now. I really don't like much of the same music as you, but I think there's somewhat of an agreement here. Right?

Swami 04-27-2005 09:13 PM

Black Mountain/Pink Mountaintops (They go together so well)
Pavement (Bought [I]Terror Twilight[/I], it's quite cool.

Huddle Information is the song that cheers me up the most.


I've really been digging Architecture in Helsinki. [I]City Calm Down [/I] and [I]Scissor Paper Rock[/I] are wonderful. Everyone download those 2 songs right now.

They're awesome. Better than Isis. Possibly the heaviest band I've heard.

I'm digging "Diary" by Sunny Day Real Estate.

Bartender 04-28-2005 04:29 AM

Yeah, I'd put Cult of Luna above Isis too. But then I don't really like Isis much..good little group of bands there, though.

[QUOTE=Happymeal]
Hot Cross - Cryonics[/QUOTE]

Is that worth buying? I don't think I can get it without ordering it on import, so I'd rather like to know if I like it beforehand.

And for me, mostly;
Elvis Costello - This Year's Model
Talking Heads - the five albums I own, but especially Fear of Music and Talking Heads '77
Gordian Knot - Emergent and Gordian Knot
Bjork - Homogenic and Medulla

I think that's about it (other than the odd few songs here and there) for the last few days.

Happymeal 04-28-2005 05:17 AM

I don't think it's that worth of a buy. It has some impressive songs but as a whole it's quite inconsistent, compared to their EPs. If you like to hear a more melodic side of the band with singing you might like it.

Low - The Great Destroyer
UnderOath - They're only Chasing Safety
Manic Street Preachers - Forever Delayed
Dinosaur Jr - Bug

I just listened to [i]Analphabetapolothology[/i] yesterday for the first time in a while. They're so good, even IF they the most ridiculous album name out there. :p

Luxor 04-28-2005 08:11 PM

I've always meant to try and get some stuff by Joan Of Arc... Never seemed to get around to it though. I'll try and remember sometime. >_<

Little Man being Erased 04-28-2005 09:59 PM

I bought [I]Before The Dawn Heals Us[/I] by M83 yesterday and I'm diggin' it right now.

Get some, they're good. I haven't heard Cap'n Jazz, I will check them out.

Electrocution 04-29-2005 05:26 PM

Elliott Smith. Lots and lots of Elliott Smith.

Luxor 04-29-2005 09:44 PM

I give a thumbs up to the last three posts.

Ampz 04-30-2005 07:15 AM

I've been listening to Nirvana's "Nevermind" and "Unplugged in New York" for what seems like every day. I really enjoy their music. I need to get my hands on another album of theirs, though. I'm growing tired of the same old songs.
BMG's $4.99 sale, here I come. ;)

asymm 04-30-2005 03:55 PM

Interesting musical day...

Edan - "Beauty and the Beat"
Sleater-Kinney - "The Woods"
and I'm just starting to listen to Liz Phair - "Exile in Guyville"

Well, you were only ten years old when it was released (nine actually unless the album was released at the very end of '97).
