Little Man being Erased 08-01-2005 11:43 PM

Yeah, I [I]really[/I] need to get [I]Either/Or[/I] as soon as possible.

The NPC 08-01-2005 11:44 PM

War - [I]Why Can't We Be Friends?[/I]

Oh, memories.

Zappa 08-01-2005 11:46 PM

Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Vespers, Op. 37." I namecheck this piece all the time, because it's really beautiful stuff. Choir music doesn't get enough love.

6Stringer 08-02-2005 12:05 AM

I've been listening to The Melvins, The Arcade Fire and Broken Social Scene a lot lately, I'm really digging they're material.

20 Minute Loop
Santana

Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol 2 (4/5)

He uses the line structure 'My x is y, like z' way too often, and some of his politics and theories are a little questionable. Still, a really really good album.

Luxor 08-02-2005 09:05 AM

Meh, [i]XO[/i] is decent. But [i]Either/Or[/i] is definitely his best. It's one of my favourite albums of all time.

Tomahawk 08-02-2005 09:37 AM

Happy Mondays - [I]Pills n Thrills and Bellyaches[/I]

And a lot of random Guided by Voices stuff.

M83 - [i]Before The Dawn Heals Us[/i] !!!

This is the most epic and emotional ambient record I've ever heard. It's, like, [i]Godspeed[/i] epic. I'm very impressed.

Also, everytime I read the album title, I think it to the melody of the line "Before your father hears us" from Radiohead's "Exit Music (For A Film)," so that's exciting.

Luxor 08-02-2005 10:40 AM

^ It's great album. Like a modern day My Bloody Valentine.

Interstate 08-02-2005 10:47 AM

Built To Spill - [I]Ancient Melodies Of The Future[/I]
Minutemen - [I]Double Nickels On The Dime[/I]

OrbDragon 08-02-2005 12:00 PM

Recently got into Afghan Whigs...tight bunch that is. I also decided to blow the dust from Jane's Addictions 'Ritual De Lo Habitual" today....almost forgot how good that record was. Swingin'!



Thomas Dybdahl & That Great October Sound: am I the only one who thinks this guy is god?

OrbDragon 08-02-2005 12:04 PM

I see you also like The Delgados, Nach...thank heavens!...now people here will actually start listening to them!

Happymeal 08-02-2005 12:13 PM

Nouvelle Vague - s/t (nifty lounge-ified covers album)
Ephel Duath - [I]The Painter's Palette[/I] (jazz-influenced extreme metal? It's a lot more accessibe than I thought it would be)

Iai 08-02-2005 12:18 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]:lol: I wish I had that kind of influence

it's a great album though, reminds me of Mercury Rev/the Beatles.[/QUOTE]
I pay attention to your posts in this thread when you mention something I don't know. You do it so often though. :(

Zappa 08-02-2005 12:52 PM

I think people pretty much tune out what I'm digging, for some reason.

Zappa 08-02-2005 01:01 PM

:lol:

Iai 08-02-2005 01:15 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]I think people pretty much tune out what I'm digging, for some reason.[/QUOTE]
I think we basically pick up our music/get recommendations from the same sources, because I'm familiar with a lot of the stuff you mention.

Except for the jazz, where I only know the artists.

The Reincarnation Of Hendrix 08-02-2005 02:39 PM

I bought the LCD Sounsystem album and it's amazing!!

It's like a cross between The Rapture and The Fall

Aeaon 08-02-2005 03:07 PM

I've recently downloaded the Angel dust album by Faith No More. It's pretty good.

Mr Observations 08-02-2005 03:12 PM

World Inferno Frienship Society are amazing, and everyone who's heard them knows it. And those who haven't...well THEY LOST OUT THE SILLY MOFOS.

I listened to the Mars Volta today. That doesn't happen often, but they've grown on me lots.

asymm 08-02-2005 03:20 PM

Kings of Convenience - [i]Quiet Is The New Loud[/i]. I've [i]really[/i] enjoyed this. I see this album as much more my style than [i]Riot On An Empty Street[/i].

sketchyjoe 08-02-2005 03:22 PM

[QUOTE=Mr Observations]World Inferno Frienship Society are amazing, and everyone who's heard them knows it.[/QUOTE]
They are.

Interstate 08-02-2005 03:23 PM

Brendan Benson - [I]The Alternative To Love[/I] (3.5/5) Not as good as I was expecting but good nonetheless

Mr Observations 08-02-2005 03:39 PM

[QUOTE=asymm]Kings of Convenience - [i]Quiet Is The New Loud[/i]. I've [i]really[/i] enjoyed this. I see this album as much more my style than [i]Riot On An Empty Street[/i].[/QUOTE]

Kings of convenience are cool as.

6Stringer 08-02-2005 03:51 PM

Today is the Lemonheads day for Matt.

Little Man being Erased 08-02-2005 03:54 PM

The Cure - [I]Boys Don't Cry[/I]

On first impressions, it's good, but it's certainly no [I]Disintegration[/I] or [I]The Head on The Door[/I].

The Ashtray Girl 08-02-2005 04:11 PM

I'm about to go and dig Belle & Sebastien, plus I just got Pulp - His n' Hers for a belated birthday present, so I shall be digging that too.

B&S are great, one of the first bands that got me into Indie. As soon as I heard "Like Dylan In the Movies" I was hooked.
