Since my last post I've listened to:

Deltron 3030 - Deltron 3030
Ryan Adams - Gold

and I've had my first taste of:

The Make Up
Ted Leo and The Pharmacists

with Les Savy Fav coming up next.

by the way, [I]Speaking in Tongues[/I] by Talking Heads is an album that gets sort of a raw deal. Listen to it an enjoy.

But every Talking Heads album is the best thing in the world, is it not?

Luxor 07-28-2005 12:22 AM

Talking Heads are pretty darn good.

No, not quite.

Zappa 07-28-2005 12:24 AM

Mmhmm.

br3ad_man 07-28-2005 12:36 AM

How is Little Creatures? I see that everywhere for next to nothing.

Zappa 07-28-2005 12:37 AM

I haven't given it much attention. I haven't enjoyed it much when I've listened.

Dog 07-28-2005 12:39 AM

[I]Little Creatures[/I] is awesome. If you've seen it somewhere for cheap, get it.

Today I've been diggin' Devo - [I]Freedom Of Choice[/I], Pere Ubu - [I]Dub Housing[/I], and The Violent Femmes s/t.

Edit: didn't know Pere Ubu's name. rofl

Double Edit: Oh and Elbow's new album is awesome.

Pere Ubu buddy.

Dog 07-28-2005 12:47 AM

I fail at life. Shut up I just got the cd today. :upset:

Edit: Wait, how would one go about pronouncing "Pere." Is it like "Pier," or "Pear," or is it French or something weird.

Kings of Convenience right now. I tried listening to Converge before but it didn't work.

Iai 07-28-2005 03:05 PM

Opeth - Ghost Reveries (3.5/5)

Disappointed. I love Opeth, but this album is a definite move towards me agreeing with everything Zappa says about them. It's really formulaic and repeats their past work a lot. Still, worth it for a fan to pick up.

el doctor 07-28-2005 03:17 PM

I don't know of anyone so far who's been satisfied with the new Opeth.

And I've been digging:

Beulah - The Coast Is Never Clear
Squarepusher - Music Is Rotted One Note
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]I tried listening to Converge before but it didn't work.[/QUOTE]

What album did you try?

Little Man being Erased 07-28-2005 03:57 PM

I henceforth declare that [I]Get Behind Me Satan[/I] is excellent.

Zappa 07-28-2005 04:05 PM

[I]Evol[/I]
[I]You're Living All Over Me[/I]
[I]Pajo[/I]

Oh well, there's only one good Roadrunner band anyway.

[QUOTE=br3ad man]I tried listening to Converge before but it didn't work.[/QUOTE]

Billy Bragg! And The Weakerthans are underrated

It's good. Worth hearing if you like singer/songwriter stuff, for sure.

The Reagans 07-28-2005 08:24 PM

br3ad_man 07-29-2005 01:20 AM

[QUOTE=Happymeal]I thought you liked [I]You Fail Me[/I]?:confuzzled:

Yeah I like [i]You Fail Me[/i] and [i]Jane Doe[/i]. Listening to them last night didn't work well though, that's all. Wasn't in the mood.

Zappa 07-29-2005 01:25 AM

In the past few hours:

[I]Sister
Nothing Lasts...But Nothing is Lost
Miles Smiles[/I]

br3ad_man 07-29-2005 01:30 AM

Today:

Dredg - El Cielo
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme

Zappa, I'm awesome. I bought Giant Steps on Cd and Remain In Light on vinyl last night.

Interstate 07-29-2005 06:49 AM

First listens of:

Hard Fi - [I]Stars Of CCTV[/I] (4/5)
Brian Eno - [I]Ambient 1 (Music For Airports)[/I] (5/5)

Downloading the new Raveonettes album as I type this. Anyone know what it's like?

Zappa 07-29-2005 11:07 AM

Waking up with [I]Focus[/I] by Cynic. This record is pretty brainy, but it's also pretty great.

Iai 07-29-2005 11:43 AM

I just reliased, I have a TON of records I've never listened to to get through.

YSI *shakes fist*

Better get cracking on that.

Bene listening to Kraftwerk - Minimum-Maximum and Manic Street Preachers - Generation Terrorists in the hope of reviewing both. Doesn't seem to be happening.

Interstate 07-29-2005 01:53 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Smoking Popes - [i]Born to Quit[/i]

^ imagine Morrissey fronting Alkaline Trio, and you have the best album ever.[/QUOTE]

Man that sounds like a good album!

Just finished listening to The Raveonettes - [I]Pretty In Black[/I]. It's ok but nothing too special (on first listen anyway)
