That's good, because [I]Forever Changes[/I] is one of the most hilariously bad things about the entire decade.

Pfft.

Bean-Bean Plus Some Sugar by Kevin Jones

[QUOTE=NachoChez]New-wave era Talk Talk. Not that bad at all, really.[/QUOTE]

is that when they came out with "It's My Life?"

Talk Talk- Laughing Stock
A Silver Mount Zion-Horses in the Sky

albums I'm loving recently:

James Blunt - Back To Bedlam (just listened to this for the first time today - very good)

Notorious BIG - Ready To Die
The Books - Lost And Safe
Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle

Smashing Pumpkins Pisces Iscariot

First b-sides I've ever enjoyed as much as an actual album.

Kraftwerk - Computer World

You Fail Me - Converge.

How come nobody ever told me how good these guys were?! ...oh wait.

Dr. Octagon - [I]Dr. Octagonecologyst[/I]
Maudlin of the Well - [I]Bath[/I]
Sparklehorse - [I]Good Morning Spider[/I]

mmm.

[i]Jane Doe[/i] is better than [i]You Fail Me[/i].

[QUOTE=Happymeal]Dr. Octagon - [I]Dr. Octagonecologyst[/I]
Sparklehorse - [I]Good Morning Spider[/I]

mmm.[/QUOTE]

mmm indeed. :)

The rest of my day:

Brian Eno - Another Green World
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Bob Marley - Rebel Music

[QUOTE=NachoChez][i]Laughing Stock[/i] remains the most phenomenal-sounding album I've ever heard. I've never heard any other album that sounds so organic (I guess that's the word I'm looking for).[/QUOTE]

I'm just now getting into them, and they seem so.....fresh (possibly? i cant find the right word either) and for some reason remind me of the way rain smells; i have no idea why.

Drive Like Jehu and Hot Snakes. I'm always amazed at how good these guys are, but I still neglect them thoroughly.

The Afghan Whigs - Gentlemen
Hot Snakes - Audit in Progress

[QUOTE=Zappa]Drive Like Jehu and Hot Snakes. I'm always amazed at how good these guys are, but I still neglect them thoroughly.[/QUOTE]

I've gotta agree with that. I've been listening to "Yank Crime" a lot.

Today was all about Primal Scream (finally I kind of understand the love for [I]Screamadelica[/I]), and They Might Be Giants.

[QUOTE=Tomahawk]Today was all about Primal Scream (finally I kind of understand the love for [I]Screamadelica[/I]), and They Might Be Giants.[/QUOTE]

I've been digging on TMBG's self titled today. It's possibly my favorite from them.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]The new Mountain Goats album is also quite great.[/QUOTE]

:eek: I didn't even know he had a new one out.

Shows how much of a fan I am :upset:

Today I listened to:

Iron And Wine - Woman King EP
The Commodores - (some mixtape my dad made ages ago and I borrowed it to listen to it driving to college)
Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible
The Books - Lost And Safe
British Sea Power - The Decline Of British Sea Power

I'm still really heavily digging Odessey & Oracle.

Also, Chemical Brothers - Surrender, and Slint - Spiderland.

Right this second, though, I'm in a Beautiful South mood.

[I]"Oh, Deborah, Alison, Phillipa, Sue...."[/I]

I've been listening to Sarah Mclachlan - I Will Remember You (live) on repeat for a good forty minutes or so now, whilst reading reviews on RYM. It's a good way to not do an essay.

Other than that, I've lately been digging The Relatives - Say it With Vodka EP, Elvis Costello - This Year's Model (still), Boris - Feedbacker, and listening The Clash - London's Calling.

Anything Fall Out Boy right now. I'm a sucker for the catchy melodies.

I saw Fall Out Boy on Conan and I thought they were pretty rad. Excuse me, [i]bad.[/i] The guitarist and bassist did that retarded twirling-in-circles thing, and the music was just pretty lame Milhouse. Ha ha, you see what I did there? Simpsons!

Sufjan Stevens - [i]Illinois[/i]
John Wayne Gacy, Jr. is a brilliant melancholy song. I particularly have loved that track.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Oh man are they awful. They're from the suburbs around my area, and they've played the local teen hangouts many a time (the video for "Dead On Arrival" was shot at the Knights of Columbus near where I live and I have friends that claim to be in it). Terrible band, and I can't believe they hit it big.[/QUOTE]

I just can't believe it took this long for a band with a Simpsons reference in its name to make it big. I mean, that's apparently all you need, and you could make thousands of different combinations too.

The Feelies, ah good times.

Beastie Boys- Hello Nasty

and right now I'm listening to Do Make Say Think

[QUOTE=UltimaTap]and right now I'm listening to Do Make Say Think[/QUOTE]

:wave:


I've been listening to BSS and The Arcade Fire along with some live Radiohead recently.

I've decided that Every Time I Die is the only good band to have such a terrible and cliched name. Don't get them confused with similar-named bands because those ones probably suck!

[QUOTE=YDload]I've decided that Every Time I Die is the only good band to have such a terrible and cliched name. Don't get them confused with similar-named bands because those ones probably suck![/QUOTE]

Their new stuff is a bit questionable though, from what I've heard.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Antony and the Johnsons - I am a Bird Now[/QUOTE]

I've gathered a lot of good things about it too.

Just got Gorguts - [I]Obscura[/I] awhile ago, I think I'll listen to it now. That and Ken Nordine's [I]Wink[/I]. I'm quite amused by it.
