Yeah, I have to go to Brisbane to find the goods. Hopefully that will change though.

You guys are dorks. You're all just jealous that my punk is better than your punk.

I bought [I]White Light/White Heat [/I] today. I'm undecided as to whether I like it. The first song sucks, but the second is alright.

The Pixies - Doolittle
Air - Talkie Walkie
Nick Drake - Pink Moon
The Swans - The Great Annihilator

I've heard "Give Up" by The Postal Service for the first time today...it's pretty good for the most part. I like them better them Death Cab, which is a band I somewhat dislike.

I downloaded that a few weeks ago and deleted it after my first listen. I probably would have kept it if there weren't a few skips here and there in the mp3 files. Still, the music was icky.

Food - [i]Last Supper[/i]
Alog - [i]Miniatures[/i]

You can upload it anytime.

Just like that one Magazine lyric "you can touch yourself anytime." Weird lyric.



Today so far I've been digging:

Ameriikan Poijat (Finnish American Brass Band that I saw perform this afternoon)
Cannonball Adderley

I've been out most of the day, so that's all.

Tangy zizzle 08-11-2005 06:15 PM

Eels

Dredg - Catch Without Arms(tomorrrow!!!)
Jaga Jazzist - The Stix

Tangy zizzle 08-11-2005 06:19 PM

Have you bought/heard [I]Government Commisions[/I] yet Nacho? I find it's the only Mogwai disc I can listen to the whole way through.

Happymeal 08-11-2005 07:20 PM

Still hooked on [I]Plays Pretty for Baby[/I]. It's my favorite record now.

Dog 08-11-2005 10:57 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]You can upload it anytime.[/QUOTE]
Check the YSI thread.

Zappa 08-11-2005 11:27 PM

You're a prince.

Zappa 08-11-2005 11:45 PM

I'm listening to [I]Moondance[/I] by Van Morrison at the moment. Even though most of the songs on this album are very similar, Van's very soulful delivery makes it a worthwhile and engaging listen anyhow.

Van Morrison made good music to read to.

Zappa 08-11-2005 11:54 PM

Never tried it. I never listen to music while I read, though. I can't play music without paying very close attention to it (for the most part, there are exceptions), and I can't get any literary meaning without concentrating on the words on a page. Therefore, the two do not mix well.

Dog 08-11-2005 11:57 PM

I can't read and listen to music at the same time either, but I generally suck at any shape or form of multitasking.

The NPC 08-12-2005 12:03 AM

Hmm, well if you're using head phones just lower the volume to a point where you can some what hear what's going on around you. If you just focus on reading you'll fly right through it and pick up everything. Music actually helps me remember that I've been studying because I'll associate certain songs with chunks of information.

If you're not using head phones don't have it blasting, just let it serve as a backround noise.

[QUOTE=Happymeal]Still hooked on [I]Plays Pretty for Baby[/I]. It's my favorite record now.[/QUOTE]

I have this on vinyl. Cost me $9. While I don't find it as spectacular as you, it is actually a very good album. Shame they broke up when they did.

Tangy zizzle 08-12-2005 02:06 AM

Right now I'm diggin' [I]This is Hardcore[/I] by Pulp. I've never listened to them before, I wrote them off as bad brit-pop but not now. This is awesome.
