Little Man being Erased 12-18-2005 04:54 PM

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Did you see them?[/QUOTE]
Sure did. They were a little disappointing though. The sound was a bit off and it was sometimes hard to distinguish songs. They finished with "Chemical Calisthenics" though, so that was awesome.

Oh and I shook Chief Xcel's hand.

Yup. lots more punk and hardcore lately. I also have developed an unhealthy love for Streelight Manifesto. [I]Everything Goes Numb[/I] is so good.

This isn't very good, but it's enjoyable enough.

All the cool kids still post their audioscrobbler lists in here.

My list is really odd this week:
1 CocoRosie 24
2 Ravi Shankar 21
2 Hossein 'Omoumi 21
4 Devendra Banhart 17
5 José González 16
6 Amadou & Mariam 15
7 Talib Kweli 12
8 Augustus Pablo 11
9 The Streets 10
10 Andrew Bird 9

Not a very heavy listening week. Too much studying I suppose.

YDload 12-18-2005 06:19 PM

Bad Religion is a pretty good band, I suppose. They probably have among the best singer in punk.

Electrocution 12-18-2005 06:32 PM

My monitor broke, and my monitor has speakers on it, so I didn't listen to a lot.

Suffer and No Control are their highpoint. THey have some other good stuff too though.

Greg Graffin is a good singer but far from the best.

Tangy zizzle 12-18-2005 07:07 PM

I think [I]Process of Belief [/I] is one the best "comeback" albums ever recorded. Regardless of genre.

Luxor 12-18-2005 09:11 PM

Bad Religion is horrible. I hate his voice.

Tom Waits - [I]Nighthawks At the Diner[/I]
Tom Waits - [i]Closing Time[/i]

[i]Nighthawks[/i] has some pretty cool stuff.

Glitterati 12-18-2005 11:27 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Yeah I dislike his voice too. Oh, and their music.[/QUOTE]

They're just so generic. I hate to get on a rant here, but that's why I barely listen to any modern punk these days.

Syd Barrett - The Madcap Laughs. I recommend this to any Pink Floyd fan.

Tangy zizzle 12-19-2005 12:08 AM

It can't be underrated if the band is basically unheard of. They're a good group, but I find just slightly, [I]slightly[/I] trying too hard to be angular and obtuse.

They're kinda like a more out-there version of DLJ.

Tangy zizzle 12-19-2005 12:10 AM

Yeah I'd go with underappreciated.

asymm 12-19-2005 12:36 AM

[i]Panda Park[/i] is okay, and I'd somewhat agree, it's at least overlooked.

Daniel! 12-19-2005 01:05 AM

Joy Division - [I]Closer[/I]
The Velvet Underground - [I]The Velvet Underground and Nico[/I]

br3ad_man 12-19-2005 01:57 AM

I bought [i]Substance[/i] by Joy Division today. I was going to get another Sonic Youth album, but this was cheaper.

rbv 12-19-2005 02:21 AM

Mitch Hedberg - Mitch All Together

OrbDragon 12-19-2005 02:28 AM

I'm checking out The National and The Silver Jews now...I really like what I've heard of the latter.

Also:

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Motorpsycho - Timothy's Monster
Dead Moon - In The Graveyard
Cocteau Twins - Treasure
Calexico/Iron & Wine - In The Reigns
Timesbold - Eye Eye

Especially the Timesbold album is really recommended, if you like good american music. A stunning album.

Tomahawk 12-19-2005 04:56 AM

Been listening to a lot of Camper Van Beethoven, mainly [I]Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart[/I]. "She Divines Water" is such a gorgeous song.

Oh, and my last.fm thing seems to have gone retardual. It's listed my top artists of the week as Wang Chung and Barry Manilow. And while I have nothing but respect for those guys, I'm pretty sure that I haven't been listening to them.

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]They're just so generic. I hate to get on a rant here, but that's why I barely listen to any modern punk these days.[/QUOTE]
The albums Suffer and No Control broke the mold. When you're saying they're generic you mean that virtually every other generic punk band out there copied their sound or the sound of someone who copied them.

But they haven't made good music for a good few years now.
