I got a great CD called An Overdose of Heavy Pysch. It is awesome..

Bartender 07-18-2005 08:50 AM

[QUOTE=Zappa]I listened to Shpongle today as well. I melt with joy every time I play [I]Tales of the Inexpressible.[/I]

And Amazon.co.uk finally started selling their new one, so I'll have that as soon as it makes it over the pond and to my mailbox.[/QUOTE]

Why Amazon.co.uk?

Zappa 07-18-2005 10:37 AM

Because Amazon.com does not yet sell it.

Bartender 07-18-2005 11:39 AM

I should have thought it would be something that simple.

thirdeyeblindislit 07-18-2005 11:47 AM

I'm actually really likeing Reggie and the full effect, especially their song "Get Well Soon", and I also like a local AZ band that you can check out on purevolume.com called Dream State, once called Casey Jones. They are great!

ATM 07-18-2005 11:51 AM

Wow, Esbjorn Svenssons Trio are amazing. If you like jazz, check them out. They are very Radiohead influenced.

Bukowski 07-18-2005 12:29 PM

'Sup Captain Beefheart

Just got back from Intonation and it was quite amazing. So all those bands and all the records I bought are currently spinning. Excellent festival, but d[u]a[/u]mned hot.

Mr Observations 07-18-2005 03:04 PM

I dig anyone with tha moves, and Talking Heads have sure as heck got tha moves.

And Aphex Twin, hes gottha moves too.

Iai 07-18-2005 05:46 PM

Common - Be (4.5/5)
Kate Bush - The Dreaming (3/5)

Also some Juno Reactor.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]How unbelievable was Les Savy Fav? I almost caught a sweat-sponge.[/QUOTE]

Haha! Yeah, Tim Harrington is a complete madman. Loved their performance. I particularly got into the Hold Steady. I just love their music and later in the day I had the opportunity to meet and talk with their frontman, Craig Finn. Asked him a question about a small aspect of [i]Separation Sunday[/i]'s word usage and concept. And of course told him how much I enjoyed his set and his work.

It struck me as odd that I could see all these major players at Intonation walking around and no one had a clue. I saw Jason Molina, Craig Finn, and Jesse from DFA1979 just walking around the merch/record tables. Surreal.

asymm 07-18-2005 06:03 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]I actually asked a friend why there were no band members walking around the grounds before/after their sets. I didn't notice a single one. It would have been awesome to have met Tim Harrington or Jamie Stewart.[/QUOTE]

Just odd luck then I guess. Yeah, meeting those two would be amazing. I'd particularly like to meet Jamie Stewart. I was very surprised/amused at his performance. He hardly touched [i]Fabulous Muscles[/i] and it's by far his most listened to record. Plus he ignored the crowd's wishes! While I was satisfied hearing the [i]La Foret[/i] material, my friends were annoyed and didn't like that material nearly as much.

Little Man being Erased 07-18-2005 10:29 PM

So far today I've listened to:

Minus the Bear - [I]Highly Refined Pirates[/I]
Not exceedingly excellent, but enjoyable enough for a listen every now and then.
3.5/5

Public Enemy - [I]It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back[/I]
I like this album quite a lot, but I think it still needs to grow on me a little further. I have also discovered that this album needs to be listened to at high volume.
4.2/5

pixiesfanyo 07-18-2005 10:34 PM

Hey Nacho and Asymm.

How'd the sexual experience go?

asymm 07-18-2005 11:02 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]We boned. It was disappointing.[/QUOTE]

:upset:

Zappa 07-18-2005 11:08 PM

I haven't been digging this thread lately.

pixiesfanyo 07-18-2005 11:28 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]I'm not digging the album in your avatar.[/QUOTE]

Ambient 2 is much better.

leiferikson 07-19-2005 06:05 AM

Im liking Ambulance Ltd.'s lp a lot at this exact point in time as you are reading this.

br3ad_man 07-19-2005 06:25 AM

I need some new music I think. I'm starting to like Illinois though, finally.

Giaeo 07-19-2005 11:55 AM

I've been listening to Rain Dogs by Tom Waits. Good album.

Dog 07-19-2005 12:37 PM

Devendra Banhart - [I]Cripple Crow[/I]

Luxor 07-19-2005 12:52 PM

Lots of Death Cab lately. The new track really grew on me, and made me want to to listen to them more. I'm listening to [i]You Can Play These Songs With Chords[/i], the most under-rated album they have.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's their best so far.

It's a very awesome album. Almost my favourite as well. I'm tied between that and [I]We Have The Facts And We're Voting Yes[/I]. The Smiths cover on [I]YCSWTC[/I] is so good.

Luxor 07-19-2005 01:11 PM

Yeah, it's so good. The new stuff is too over-produced.

Iai 07-19-2005 01:23 PM

Art Blakey - Moanin' (4/5)

Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary (2/5)

John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band (1/5 - only listened because I'm reviewing it)

Not a great day in all.

Luxor 07-19-2005 01:25 PM

[i]Diary[/i]? 2/5? C'mon.

Iai 07-19-2005 01:30 PM

Didn't enjoy it in the slightest.

Sorry to go all Zappa on ya.... :p
