i just picked up this 4disc hendrix box set with some unreleased tracks on it. pink floyd is usually on at my house 'dark side' 'animals' 'saucerful'. Beastie boys: their new cd is pretty good. blackalicious and J5 (mostly j5) have some really good tracks for those of you that enjoy real hip hop. Bob marley, eek-a-mouse and sublime go hand in hand with smoking bowls. i used to listen to the blood brothers a lot, les savy fav, the international noise conspiracy, the refused, sometimes le tigre, but lately ive been sticking to classic rock and stoner music.

Omar uses a custom Ibanez. It seems like a junky piece of crap to me, but he gets amazing sounds.

Nah man, I've played on the un-customized model of his Ibanez, they are an incredible guitar to play.

Pedro The Lion - It's Hard To Find a Friend.

LegallyAwesome 08-05-2004 10:09 PM

- Bits of the [B]Janes Addiction[/B]- Strays album put out early 2004 (i tink).
[B]The Shins[/B]- Oh, Inverted World
[B]Tom Waits[/B]
[B]Dredg[/B] - El Cielo
(strangely) [B]Boris the Sprinkler[/B] - End of the Century LP
(check them out if you've never heard/heard of them. Very funny, fast, good punk rock...from my hometown, surprisingly)

Mix a good bit of Led Zeppelin in there too, and that's my list right now.

LegallyAwesome 08-05-2004 10:13 PM

while we're questioning the instrument-use of Mars Volta, i gottsta add- whatever they're using at the moment (perhaps some custom, hybrid-model or sumthing), it sounds very insindiary (ok, my spelling is off, and im not Rogert Ebert- so that just bumped me 2 stories under the ground)....

but it's very excellent, and want to have that guitar sound.

Mars Volt! Be De-loused....or lose.
...ok.

Tangy zizzle 08-06-2004 04:57 AM

At the moment I really can't get enough of The Icarus Line. They are really what I needed. A very raunchy, dark and raw rock band.

Van Morrison's early material is getting a thrashing here aswell. [I]Hard Nose The Highway[/I] and [I]Astral Weeks[/I] have become staples in my house over the last couple months. Those two albums are so good, and do not get enough credit these days.

Korekyojin are a very interesting Japanese band that I've been diggin' recently. Strange psychotic/psychadelic prog-punk music. Very good stuff.

Tapeworm 08-06-2004 05:24 AM

I just got Missy Higgins' Scar EP and it is brilliant, a lot more upbeat (well the tracks that will appear on the album), and just plain blow-awayful.

I also picked up Dylan's Blood on the Tracks for $10. My favourite Dylan album, and I'm heavily into him at the moment.

I also listened to the Mike Skinner interview on JJJ this morning and watched The Streets play on Channel V, and Mike Skinner is definately the man. Also happened to see an hour long Beastie Boys special and a live performance on [V] today, and that was awesome. And I was just about to dismiss it as the worst music channel ever.

Fair enough. I don't like only having one pickup and it's not all that nice looking so it put me off.

OrbDragon 08-06-2004 03:50 PM

Recently I've been getting into Skeleton Key and Bob Log III (whose music is just goofy, but his act has still impressed me since I saw him live about 4 months ago).

I'm liking Tom McRea alot...I've checked out Thursday too, but I really disliked the stuff I've heard so far.

I've been listening to some old favorites these days...I realized again how good OK Computer is...it's great to rediscover an album like that. I'm also digging dEUS again...I can't emphasize enough how good that band is...want proof? Download "Instant Street".

"Boooooooobbbbb Scotch! Boob scoth on the rocks."

Coolest song ever.

Jellyspoon 08-06-2004 06:10 PM

Three CDs i got for my birthday;

* Regina Spektor - Soviet Kitsch excellent so far.
* Polyphonic Spree - Together We're heavy - tainkg time.
* Meat Beat Manifesto - Actual Sounds and Voices - I was so surprised when this actually arrived in the post today. It's a US import. The peak of techno.

of course I havent absorbed them yet, and im still sucking on TSOPTC and Miss Machine.

My friend says that all the time. Gotta love Ben Stiller.


Can someone give me some good Death Cab For Cutie songs to download? I'm interested in them after hearing that cool guy (Seth) on the OC talk about them. Yeah, I watch The OC.
