Please tell me more.

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]What would be a good Eels album to start with?[/QUOTE]

I've only ever heard [I]Beautiful Freak[/I], and I'm finishing my first listen now. It's not great, but it is charming and occasionally really neat.

I was thinking about picking up either that, or [I]Electro-shock Blues[/I].

I think I've seen that on soulseek before. I need to download it.

10,000 Maniacs - [i]In my Tribe[/i]

Been awhile since I was on this.

NoMeansNo - [I]Mama[/I]
Opium Jukebox - [I]Bhangra Bloody Bhangra: A Tribute To Black Sabbath[/I]
Jad Fair And Daniel Johnston - [I]It's Spooky[/I]

Fu[COLOR="White"]c[/COLOR]k[COLOR="White"]i[/COLOR]n' Debussy.

Interpol - [I]Antics[/I]
Weezer - [I]Weezer[/I] (The Blue Album)
Radiohead - [I]The Bends[/I]
The Smiths - [I]The Smiths[/I]

I'm not very indie.

Lots of dub.

Ben Kweller - [I]On My Way[/I] - Really enjoyed this album today. Full of fun simple songs.

Have you heard [I]Sha Sha[/I]? Much better.

This Cocteau Twins stuff is going to become an addiction, or at least a big part of my week.

Bad Brains - Live
Lee Perry and the Upsetters - Super Ape
Big Youth - Dreadlocks Dread

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]Have you heard [I]Sha Sha[/I]? Much better.[/QUOTE]

No I haven't. I didn't think much of [I]On My Way[/I] until today, I only thought it had a couple of half decent songs, nothing more but my opinion of it has gone up alot since then. I might get [I]Sha Sha[/I] if I can get my hands on a copy.

Yeah, I've probably only listened to [I]On My Way[/I] a few times. I might give it another chance.

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]Yeah, I've probably only listened to [I]On My Way[/I] a few times. I might give it another chance.[/QUOTE]

You should, I had only listened to it two or three, maybe four times before I decided it was a pretty decent album.

The Mars Volta - [I]Concertina[/I] (live)

[QUOTE=Zappa]This Cocteau Twins stuff is going to become an addiction, or at least a big part of my week.[/QUOTE]

What Cocteau Twins in particular are you listening to?

Ive been digging alot of ska recently -

Voodoo Glow Skulls
Howards Alias

but Ive also been listening to some great albums that I havent listened to in a while by people such as

PJ Harvey
Mark Lanegan
APC
Radiohead

I haven't been listening to much music at all lately, I'm not sure what it is.

Make Believe
Dälek
Curtis Mayfield
Boris

My first listen to Dälek was forgettable but now he's anything but.

I got my first taste of NoMeansNo today.

In contrast, I've listened to a buttload of music this week.

Last night:
Talking Heads - [I]Remain in Light[/I]
Massive Attack - [I]Mezzanine[/I]

This morning:
The White Stripes - [I]The White Stripes[/I]
The White Stripes - [I]De Stijl[/I]
The White Stripes - [I]White Blood Cells[/I]

I really enjoy those White Stripes albums.

I listened to a song by them, it was very pretty indeed.

[QUOTE=Zappa]Was it marvelous, or lame?[/QUOTE]
The former.

I've never known anyone not to like NomeansNo

*Raises hand*

Meh

They're ok

Thats better than thinking that they are bad.

I'm really digging the New York Dolls' s/t album. Trashy seventies glam punk.

The Gun Club - [I]Fire Of Love[/I]
