Thom Yorke's concert

It's been a Modern Lovers kind of day for me.

Don Cherry - [I]Eternal Rhythm[/I]

The last 10 minutes or so of "Part 2" is some of the most passionate playing I've ever heard. If you would like to hear what happens when free jazz and groundbreaking mixtures of international traditional music (before "world music" was super cool and trite) are used to create passionate, honest music, you have to check out this album.

^Sounds neat. That piqued my interest.

The Bridge School one? I have that.

Yea, I hate the guys that talk really loudly during Morning Bell though, and attempt to sing along.

True. I wish he'd played that both nights. One of those nights has the version of "True Love Waits" where the guy's like "OMG! THEY [I]TOOOOTALLY[/I] NEVER PLAY THIS!", right? Or was that another show I have?

Heh, yea that's the one. I wish I had been there to beat those kids down for talking during the set.

That guy is probably a MXican, though.

It was probably Med

Yeah dude, you're probably right.

I think they may be going on tour to promote the new album :-D

We're spamming, but I can't wait to see them again.

/pulls thread back on topic

Today I've been digging Dinosaur Jr. - [I]You're Living All Over Me[/I], Blackalicious - [I]Blazing Arrow[/I], Ani DeFranco - [I]Educated Guess[/I], and I'm still enjoying Elbow - [I]Leaders Of The Free World[/I].

This morning I have enjoyed Hot Snakes - [I]Automatic Midnight[/I] and Shpongle - [I]Nothing Lasts... but Nothing is Lost[/I].

Today all I listened to was DJ Danger Mouse and MF Doom - [I]DangerDoom[/I], it never gets old to me. I love it.

It wouldn't wanna be getting old yet, seeing as it's not even out yet and all.

I know, I saw it advertised on Adult Swim last night and I thought man, I'm so happy we have YSI and people who get leaked albums on MX.

Today:

American Football
Archer Prewitt
Castanets

Cocteau Twins - [I]Heaven or Las Vegas[/I]

I just, for the first time, listened to the original running order (and am on the bonus tracks) of

[I]Buy [/I]by James Chance & The Contortions

Seems to be a pretty fu[color=white]c[/color]kin' stellar album.

I just realised how much I love [I]Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus[/I] by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds.

What sort of music is it? Like most of the other stuff you post about, I've never heard of them.

They call it "no wave," I guess. It's sort of like more avant garde post-punk. The Contortions play pretty funky rock music with some really hot sax playing (James Chance plays sax and sings, and originally moved to NYC to become a jazz musician) and really angular riffing and anxious-sounding vocals.

That sure does sound mighty interesting, fella.

Aren't the Residents classified as no wave? If they are then I don't think I would like much from the genre.
