So I just thought I'd come in to say I heard "Little Sister" by QOTSA and I thought it was pretty groovy.

[QUOTE=Doctor D.]Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain

All I can say is that it certainly lived up to the hype. I didn't expect too much from it, and I was happiliy wrong.

Mission Of Burma - Vs.

I've heard some songs by them, and they seemed allright. So I picked this up, and again, blown away. One of the best things I've heard in a while.

Kraftwerk -Computer World

I've heard bits and pieces by Kraftwerk, and I never much cared for it at all. But this album was just sitting at the library and I decided to checkout the hype surrounding them. And it shocked me. I though I wouldn't like it all. It's a refreshing listen......from the early 80's.......yeah thats the ticket.[/QUOTE]

3 top albums, good work.

The Streets - A Grand Don't Come For Free
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Public Enemy - Yo! Bum Rush The Show
Refused - The Shape of Punk To Come

Got my hands on:

Afghan Whigs - [I]1965[/I]
Billy Bragg - [I]Talking With the Taxman About Poetry[/I]
Scrawl - [I]Velvet Hammer[/I]

So I've been digging on them.

Also the Pogues. Also American Music Club. Also Cheap Trick, live at Budokan!

Oh and as far as the "listening to a bunch of CDs in one day" thing goes... my job involves me being in my car, and me being in my car involves me listening to CDs. Also, I'm a music geek who owns an iPod. I guess that contributes too.

Sonic Youth
Mew
Propagandhi
Appleseed Cast

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]I'm diggin' [I]Demon Days[/I].[/QUOTE]

i'm really enjoying it, but it still has to grow on me.

Bartender 05-25-2005 10:51 AM

[QUOTE=Iai]No, it's a British game show. It mainly involves re-arranging scrambled letters to form words. It's fun to play along with when you're drunk or otherwise inebriated. Plus, the presenter is a slightly confused old man who doesn't quite understand what's going on most of the time.[/QUOTE]

I watch it sober :-/

But yeah, that's more or less it. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countdown_%28game_show%29]Wikipedia[/url] has proven useful in explaining it to previous Australians, so there you go.

And I've been mostly digging Solomon Burke - Don't Give Up On Me today, along with what I listed last time I was here.

Luxor 05-25-2005 11:44 AM

I gave Kyuss another listen. So, they're not as bad as I previously had stated. The music is good, but I really can't stand that type of vocals. That's mainly why I'm not a very big metal fan.

Right now I'm listening to Spoon's new album. It's decent, but not as good as some of their other stuff.

el doctor 05-25-2005 01:15 PM

Sleater-Kinney - "The Woods"

I've been enamored with the album since it was leaked, but now that it's actually out, I can legally whore it.

[QUOTE=Master Arkam Kannon]i'm really enjoying it, but it still has to grow on me.[/QUOTE]
Yep, exactly the same for me. I've only listened to it a few times, but it's definitely very goooood.

crazyGUITARnDRUMgal 05-25-2005 04:07 PM

Spoon - Gimme Fiction

The Reincarnation Of Hendrix 05-25-2005 04:38 PM

There was a thread about them with a link to some songs to download not long ago. That would be a good place to start.

You do realise that all metal vocalists don't sound like Kyuss right?

Weezer - [i]Pinkerton[/i]
Jefferson Airplane - [i]Surrealistic Pillow[/i]
- This is a fantastic album. Picked it up on LP for $4 today and I'm amazed. It's a brilliant collection of folky, psychedelic pop songs. Absolutely terrific. Anyone have suggestions on where to go from this album?

Luxor 05-26-2005 08:10 PM

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]You do realise that all metal vocalists don't sound like Kyuss right?[/QUOTE]
Yes. But I'm just saying that I don't like that type. Like Metallica for example, yuck!

Little Man being Erased 05-26-2005 08:45 PM

I just got my first taste of NoMeansNo today, thanks to the FL thread. Wow, just wow.

Ah yeah, many praises to Zappa for that one. Right?

Anyway, "Close to the Edge" is a fu[color=white]ckin[/color]' amazing song. I was also amazed at how good "Time of the Season" by The Zombies is. I never paid attention to it much before because it was just another classic rock staple to me, but I guess a lot of raving about it got me more intrigued.

Little Man being Erased 05-26-2005 09:35 PM

Yep, big props to the Zap man.
