Yeah, they just split up. There's a thread about it in Punk that I just bumped.

I want the new Millionare record so so bad, where is it????

Parfait 07-10-2005 08:16 PM

I just got this Walt Dickerson album with Sun Ra on piano and harpsichord, and it basically sucks. Disappointing.

[QUOTE=3rdplanet]To add to what else I have been liking I give you;

King's X.

I didn't know Vocal Harmonies until this band came into my life.[/QUOTE]
I remember a "100 Greatest Hard Rock Bands" show on VH1 a while ago had them on the list. There was some guy who getting off to them hardcore.

I have now effectively destroyed any reputation I had.

Iai 07-10-2005 08:42 PM

My brother really likes King's X. I haven't heard a lot of their stuff, but I really dug what he played me.

Not half bad.

Little Man being Erased 07-10-2005 11:32 PM

Lagwagon and heaps of other random shizzle.

Parfait 07-11-2005 12:40 AM

DJ Krush's [I]Strictly Turntablized[/I] record, particularly "Kemuri."

Doesn't get enough credit, this guy.

asymm 07-11-2005 12:44 AM

Xiu Xiu - [i]La Foret[/i]

Tangy zizzle 07-11-2005 12:45 AM

Man, I love rock. Just pure straight up fuzzy guitars, deathly drums, phhaaatttt bass and sex.

Anyhoo,

The Sultans
Mudhoney

Good work.

Gun Club - Miami (Ah I had to bust out with this golden nugget)

Tomahawk 07-11-2005 01:24 AM

Bela Fleck & the Flecktones

First time I've ever heard them. I'm really enjoying it.

He's fairly good but would hardly say he was deserving of more credit.

They vocal harmonies really do sound good.

Bartender 07-11-2005 05:56 AM

[QUOTE=Parfait]I'm listening to Bill Bruford's [I]One of a Kind[/I] (for the first time in quite a while). I've always been fond of this album, despite its intense cheesiness.[/QUOTE]

I like that album.


I listened to Murder by Death - [i]Who Will Survive, and What Will Be Left of Them?[/i] straight through for the first time yesterday, whilst checking papers. It's a very good album, but I think I still (so far) prefer [i]Like the Exorcist, But More Breakdancing[/i].

You looking forward to their new one this year?

Bartender 07-11-2005 06:53 AM

I am now that I know there is going to be a new one this year.

oh bartender you brighten my day. :D

The new Xiu Xiu record, as I see it, bears a much stronger similarity to [i]A Promise[/i] rather than the previous record, [i]Fabulous Muscles[/i]. It's much quieter with less poppy moments that you found on the last one. While not quite as alienating as [i]A Promise[/i] may feel, I don't see it as accessible as [i]Fabulous Muscles[/i] was. I've really enjoyed it and as time progresses it's definitely grown on me. I'm excited to see these songs performed next weekend at Intonation :D

Make sure while you are there you take Nacho's virginity.

UltimaTap 07-11-2005 10:54 AM

Tangy zizzle 07-11-2005 05:42 PM

Anybody who's going to Intonation, I hope you get mildly ill.

Tangy zizzle 07-11-2005 05:48 PM

I am slightly, but then I think of seeing Hot Snakes and seeing [I]Bullet Train to Vegas[/I] (yeah, that's right Jehu fans) live and it doesn;t seem so bad.

But still, Intonation looks damm good this year. So yeah, I hope you break a finger or get a severe headache.

Little Man being Erased 07-11-2005 05:53 PM

How good were Hot Snakes? Too good.
