Yes Sir, that's one classic album.


The Dead Boys - Younger, Louder, and Snottier (The Original Cuts)

Luxor 07-31-2005 03:02 PM

Listening to [i]Hail To The Thief[/i] for the first time all the way through. I'm more of an early Radiohead fan, personally.

white_riot 07-31-2005 03:26 PM

I've been listening to Bad Religion alot lately. I got How Could Hell be any Worse about 9 months ago and rarely listened to it and the other day I played it and realised it was awesome.

OrbDragon 07-31-2005 04:01 PM

Jaga Jazzist - What We Must
Stereolab - Oscillons From The Anti-Sun
Motorpsycho - Timothy's Monster
Morphine - Cure For Pain
The Delgados - Hate
Sebadoh - Harmacy

The first two are prolly the best two releases so far this year...IMHO.

asymm 07-31-2005 04:25 PM

No, it's a Stereolab compilation box. Features a bunch of unreleased material and some obscure EP stuff.

Little Man being Erased 07-31-2005 04:29 PM

Sigur Ros - [I]( )[/I]
Deltron 3030 - [I]Deltron 3030[/I]

And I picked up [I]Talkin' Honky Blues[/I] by Buck 65 and [I]Boys Don't Cry[/I] by The Cure for cheap. So I'll be diggin' those for sure.

OrbDragon 07-31-2005 04:41 PM

[QUOTE=asymm]No, it's a Stereolab compilation box. Features a bunch of unreleased material and some obscure EP stuff.[/QUOTE]

It's their best material so far IMO.

OrbDragon 07-31-2005 04:45 PM

Then again, I haven't heard Mars Audiac Quintet yet...am I missing out?

DrummerKevin 07-31-2005 05:12 PM

I've been getting into Silverchair recently. I love their Frogstomp album, and I've been listening to some stuff on Neon Ballroom.

Tangy zizzle 07-31-2005 08:20 PM

Stereolab are the boobs.

I bought [I]Worst Case Scenario[/I] yesterday. Awesome.

[FONT=Courier New][FONT=Arial]ATD-I with this station is non-operationial...great anthology of hit songs with dvd of music videos....probably my favorite is 198D off the album, great harmonic tones, overall smooth flow

Sparta - wiretap scars or porcelain...favorite songs are collapse, hiss the villain, while oceana sleeps, breaking the broken, cut your ribbon, red alibi

The Mars Volta - frances the mute - great album, good main theme heard in Cassandra Gemini D....[/FONT][/FONT]

Heard alot of good things about Andrew Bird...what do you recommend by him?

Iai 08-01-2005 09:34 AM

I only have The Mysterious Production Of Eggs. It's definitely worth checking out.

Oh yeah that's a cool version. Thanks.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Ghost - [i]Hypnotic Underworld[/i]

this kind of sucks. I'm disappointed.[/QUOTE]

I only heard one song from them, and I loved it.

Interstate 08-01-2005 01:13 PM

Fugazi - [I]The Argument[/I]
The Futureheads - [I]S/T[/I] (after Nacho saying it was good the whole way through I decided to listen again. And he's right. :p )


First listens of:
KT Tunstall - [I]Eye To The Telescope[/I] - I was expecting this to be really crap but I'm over half way through and it's surprisingly good. (4/5)
Anthony And The Johnsons - [I]I Am A Bird Now[/I] (4-4.5/5)

Next up is Brendan Benson - [I]The Alternative To Love[/I] - I'm excited about this album as I downloaded two songs and absolutely loved them.


[QUOTE=Iai]I only have The Mysterious Production Of Eggs. It's definitely worth checking out.[/QUOTE]

I tried to download that twice from the YSI thread and each time it got to 95% and then 'completed' itself. My pc sucks :upset:

asymm 08-01-2005 01:15 PM

Vinny Miller - Pigpen 7"
{[url="http://www.vinnymiller.com/download/index.html"]download[/url]}

asymm 08-01-2005 02:07 PM

Everyone should download Vinny Miller's little single for the last song, "Bagged And Tagged". It's gorgeous. His music is mostly acoustic singer/songwriter stuff. But, this debut 7" is much more eclectic than his full release is.

FlawedPerfection 08-01-2005 03:39 PM

My bands lately
1. Muse
2. Dredg
3. At the Drive In

Very odd mix... but all so great.

Little Man being Erased 08-01-2005 03:52 PM

Buck 65's [I]Talkin' Honky Blues[/I] is totally excellent.

Also:
The White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan
