[QUOTE=no peros calentes]For?[/QUOTE]

For recommending that GvsB album. It's gives off some of those groovy vibes.

I see, very interesting.

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Hearts of Oak
Talking Heads - Speaking In Tongues
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs

Deerhoof's Apple O' and Reville has been a main source of enjoyment for the past few days.

[QUOTE=Daniel!]Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Hearts of Oak[/QUOTE]


Good, good.

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - The Tyranny of Distance

These guys are great.

Duh.

Over my break, in the very long car ride to and from minnesota, we listened to:

Ween - white pepper
Mr. Bungle - California
Black Crowes
The unicorns - Who will cut our hair when we're gone?
California Guitar Trio
Frank Zappa - freak out
And other things that I cannot remember

What I personally listened to:
cLOUDDEAD -ten
World/Inferno Friendship society
Against me!
Defiance, ohio
Pinback
Thingy
The Mars Volta

LCD Soundsystem - LCD Soundsystem

The first track is pretty good. The rest is okay.

I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.

I've been listening to the Killer - Hot Fuss. Good sh[u]i[/u]t.

[QUOTE=Zappa]I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.[/QUOTE]

Pretty good is better than okay.

I should check out Jesus and Mary Chain.

Herbie Hancock featuring Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan - "Don't Explain"

The Drifters and Dangerdoom. And Binary Star. The Binary Star album does not disappoint.

[QUOTE=Robert Crumb]And Binary Star. The Binary Star album does not disappoint.[/QUOTE]
Which one? I have [I]Masters Of The Universe[/I]. Solid.

Right now Sleater-Kinney's [I]The Woods[/I].

[QUOTE=DogInTheSand]Which one? I have Masters Of The Universe. Solid.[/QUOTE]

That's the one. Very much solid.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Aerosmith - [i]Toys In the Attic[/i]

Dude Aerosmith rules. This album is even better than [i]Rocks[/i], I think. But the production sucks.[/QUOTE]

Any Aerosmith album from before they were clean is pretty good, I would guess. I don't know about [i]Draw the Line[/i] though, as it was pretty much the depths of their depravity if "Behind the Music" serves me correctly.

[QUOTE=Zappa]I didn't realize that "pretty good" and "okay" had different levels of quality equated with them.[/QUOTE]
Have you read [i]Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance[/i]? Every time someone talks about quality, it makes me think of that book.
[QUOTE=Daniel!]Pretty good is better than okay.[/QUOTE]
That's what I was gonna say. I'd say "okay" is one step above completely neutral, and "pretty good" is about three.

The Beta Band - The Three EPs

I'd forgotten how much I like this. Think I might like it even more than I used to, actually.

[QUOTE=Scott Herren]Herbie Hancock featuring Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan - "Don't Explain"[/QUOTE]


..wtf? sounds cool.

I'm listening to Dead By X'Mas by Hanoi Rocks, thanks to Jon.

These guys were pretty good, I'll have to pick up an album by them sometime soon.

Glam metal in Alt/Indie, o noes! :eek:
