I know exactly the mood you're in. I've been listening to Prefuse 73 and cLOUDDEAD for the same reasons.

I saw Protest The Hero last night. They weren't bad.

I realized I really only liked their new album for like, 2 days.

Yeah it didn't live up to the hype, if there was any.

Yesterday and today I listened to

The Flaming Lips
Refused
William Shatner
Pretty Girls Make Graves
Desert Sessions

Lee Morgan - [I]The Sidewinder[/I]
Charles Mingus - [I]The Black Saint & The Sinner Lady[/I]

What a huge contrast between albums of the same era and genre. Neat.

Electropop from cold places.

Mogwai - Mr. Beast

Just got it and I'm loving it.

JonM check your mali thread.

Otis Redding
Old Time Relijun
Minutemen

Think kraftwerk and meets Mogwai during Come On Die Young.

I suck at comparisons, but I'm really enjoying it alot.

Kayo Dot - Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue

[QUOTE=NachoChez][i]Those Who Tell the Truth...[/i] for me.
[/QUOTE]

Track # 2, is magical.

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]Kayo Dot - Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue[/QUOTE]Opinion on it?

[QUOTE=el doctor]Opinion on it?[/QUOTE]

I only have listened to it once. But it seems alot more fluid than Choirs.

[QUOTE=asymm]
Smog - [i]A River Ain't Too Much To Love[/i] ([url="http://www.dragcity.com/video/dc292smogrbr_sm.mov"]great video from this record[/url])
[/QUOTE]

Smog is fantastic. Have you heard Knock Knock? Amazing story telling and instrumentation.

Listenign to

Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines
Erid Dolphy - Out To Lunch

Jon Poole - What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body?

I'm not the biggest Zappa fan (one album and a bunch of downloaded tracks, so far), but this sounds pretty good so far. Especially considering the equipment he had with which to make it.

I'm downloading [i]Marquee Moon[/i] now. I'm sure I'll enjoy it :)

[QUOTE=NachoChez]
Boards of Canada - [i]Music Has the Right to Children[/i][/QUOTE]

That's a sweet album. I would never be able to describe Boards Of Canada for someone who had never heard of them.

[QUOTE=YDload]I'm downloading [i]Marquee Moon[/i] now. I'm sure I'll enjoy it :)[/QUOTE]

Oh, you will. If you're anything like me. Which you aren't.


:-/

Perfect Speed by 13 & God is a good song.

I've been listening to The Unicorns, Casino Versus Japan, and some Ben Folds song about my city.

Patti Smith - Horses
Black Flag - In My Head

Sabnack, a really rockin' band from Osaka, Japan.

I saw them at my local venue tonight and was moved to dance like a criminal.

A smooth criminal, at that.

Nujabes - Modal Soul

Nujabes new cd, my friend in Japan just sent it to me. [I]Metaphorical Music[/I] pales in comparison. My pick for album of the year.

Also

M. Ward - Transistor Radio

[QUOTE=YDload]I'm downloading [i]Marquee Moon[/i] now. I'm sure I'll enjoy it :)[/QUOTE]

One and a half songs in and it already kicks as[size=2]s.[/size] People who know how to play their instruments = :cool:

fIREHOSE - Ragin' Full On
Broken Social Scene - EP To Be You and Me

I'd say quite a bit of Sigur Ros and Slint. I'm thinking of buying Slint on Vinyl, seeing as I just saw it at the brand new record store in my neighborhood. I'm not sure if it's really a good idea, seeing as I'm not really a vinyl collector. Wish I was, though.

[QUOTE=Zappa]What a huge contrast between albums of the same era and genre. Neat.[/QUOTE]

I'm starting to think [I]The Sidewinder[/I] is one of my favourite jazz albums (although I'm not exactly an expert). Once my internet is back to its proper speed I will go on a downloading spree.

Michael Gira & Dan Matz - [I]What We Did[/I]
Maureen Tucker - [I]Playin' Possum[/I]

Captain Beefheart

It's a hot one. If you dig Lee's style (as you seem to), I would recommend some Clifford Brown & Max Roach recordings, if you've got none. Clifford was the king of hard-bop trumpet. He's got less of that SOUL feel that Lee does well, but he's truly astounding. Most trumpet players exposed to Brownie's short career in the 50s took on his style.

There's more great Lee on [I]Moanin'[/I] and [I]A Night In Tunisia[/I] by Art Blakey, as well as his own [I]Cornbread[/I].

I need to remember those names, as I am getting into jazz as of late.

Just picked up Ryan Adams - [i]Jacksonville City Nights[/i]. Sounds great. I like some songs more than others. It's a totally pure country album though, so it'll probably have to grow on me a bit. Can't wait for [i]29[/i].

Miles Davis - Birth Of the Cool
Ryan Adams - 29
John Legend - Get Lifted
Opeth - Blackwater Park

*Is listening to The Landlord Is Dead*

I've been diggin

[i]EP To Be You And Me[/i] by Broken Social Scene
[i]Pink Flag[/i] by Wire (again)
and Wolf Parade even more

I've been finding Toots & The Maytals really exciting lately. I'm very much a roots reggae kind of guy, but the little something extra in their tunes, also in some Peter Tosh tunes, really works for me, know what I'm sayin?

[QUOTE=Wanker]*Is listening to The Landlord Is Dead*[/QUOTE]
That cd will forever by the soundtrack to my life. I cant wait for DMST's new cd next year.

And have you heard the new Mogwai?!!!!

and I cant get enough of [I]Apologies To The Queen Mary[/I]
