Maybe alternative/pop-rock or something.

Yeah, alternative/pop-rock is fitting, but also not a [I]great[/I] description.

Awesome band, just awesome.

[QUOTE=Zappa]Then again, I don't think any albums by that band are bad.[/QUOTE]

I forgot about [I]Bloodflowers[/I]. That album is whack. I wasn't too fond of the new s/t when I gave it a listen, either.

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]I know I've pimped bands/records before, but this Nada Surf s[COLOR=White]h[/COLOR]it is the real deal.

I just got [I]The Proximity Effect [/I] aswell, goodness. I can see the Weezer comparison, but I'd say Nada Surf on a whole are more mature and have a larger scope.

I remember the song "Popular."

I dislike Nada Surf.

Martin Grech - Unholy
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP
Elvis Costello - This Year's Model
Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation of Millions....

I had Hi/Low but then my sister took it back. Good stuff.

It's the only Costello I've heard. I like it a lot, though.

I guess I may aswell list my diggage.

Beastie Boys
Shpongle
The Jolly Rogers
Devin Davis

Schnitzl'd In The Negev = best song name ever.

That's for d[font=]amn[/font] sure.

[QUOTE=Zappa]I remember the song "Popular."[/QUOTE]

Yeah. I'm guessing that not all of their songs have nothing but talking in the verses. That was a pretty boring song, but I could tell they might have something more interesting up their sleeves.

Still Jeru but also Pere Ubu, One Be Lo and Andrew Bird.

Holla.

Ok, been digging:

Kaiser Chiefs - Employment
The Libertines - The Libertines
The Libertines - Up The Bracket
The Best Of - The Smiths
Bravery - The Bravery
The Dears - No Cities Left
Babyshambles

Trying to get my hands on some Futureheads.

Any other bands similar that you can recommend, apart from the obvious Morissey, Ramones, The Clash etc.

Totally into the brit music at the present.

Earl Wild - [I]Earl Wild Plays His Transcriptions of Gershwin[/I]

This is a CD my mom gave me to listen to. I guess she knew the musician (featured on solo piano) on here a long long time ago. This is remarkable stuff.

Gigantic Brain - The Invasion Discography
Belle and Sebastian - Dear Catastrophe Waitress

Glad to see you're enjoying [i]This Year's Model[/i]. What's [i]Unholy[/i] like?


I've been listening to Miocene, earthtone 9, Aereogramme and my solitary Sunna song recently, in anticipation of getting new related albums in the post sometime soon.

What's the best Aerogramme record Bartender?

Very, very dark. It's the sort of record that's could split his fanbase in half, but turn the ones that remain into a really devotional cult. I'm gonna have to give it a few more spins before I slap any sort of rating on it, but I will say it's a difficult album to listen to, yet pretty gripping all the same.

[QUOTE=br3ad man]Gigantic Brain - The Invasion Discography[/QUOTE]

Haha, I remember hearing that one song on Dargon(?)'s review.

:lol:

It's pretty funny stuff, but most of it is really cool.

Has anyone heard of Frankenixon or does anyone have their CD, if so is it good or too girly?

Kinesis
Amplifier
InMe

800th Post :cool:

It'd be worth the £8.99 that Amazon's currently asking for it, then?

I don't know :( I bought [i]A Story In White[/i] when it first came out (four years ago now, which is a depressing thought), and slowly came to love it. Then I just didn't buy [i]Sleep and Release[/i] or [i]Seclusion[/i] for some reason, despite being made fully aware of them by reviews and things.

[QUOTE=Clunge]Kinesis[/QUOTE]
They just broke up. :( Gutted about that.

[QUOTE=Bartender]It'd be worth the £8.99 that Amazon's currently asking for it, then?[/QUOTE]
Um.....you may not think so at first, but yeah.

Have you got Open Heart Zoo yet?

I don't actually own it, no, but I've heard it. Borrowed it from friends and things.

[QUOTE=Iai]They just broke up. :( Gutted about that.[/QUOTE]

aah that sucks. :( Didn't they only release one album ([I]Handshakes For Bullets[/I])?
