[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]I for one am going on a Minutemen binge tommrow. It will be 20 years since D. Boon's death.[/QUOTE]

I'll be sure to put on [I]DNOTD[/I] tomorrow.

Right now, it's The Pretenders - The Singles. Good new wave. If you like new wave pop rock punk-ish stuff like Police, Elvis Costello, you'd like The Pretenders.

Lots of the Man in Black, inspired by the thread in The Pit.

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Yay. What do you think of the new Kayo Dot?[/QUOTE]

A bit disappointing, but still very good. But I've only listened to it on computer speakers, I need to have a nice headphones session with it before I can really judge.

Due to severe illness, i spent all day yesterday in bed listening to music and watching movies.

I listened to:

The Fall - Hex Enduction Hour
The Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy
Pere Ubu - The Modern Dance
The Slackers - Better Late than Never
The Slackers - Close My Eyes
John Coltrane - Giant Steps
Big Boys - The Skinny Elvis
Public Image Ltd - Metal Box

OrbDragon 12-22-2005 08:52 AM

missAntarctica - Lost Electricty
dEUS - Pocket Revolution

I think I'll review these just in the hope these albums will be more appreciated. Not that I'm a good reviewer, but somebody's got to spread the word on these two gems.

Edit: I always spell Antarctica wrong.

That's a cool Big Boys album. I found them by mistake on soulseek one day.

Fun.

The Big Boys are great. We Got Your Money is my favourite song.


I've been digging:

Captain Chaos: Brilliant folk-punk, Chris from Ghost Mice's solo project.
Mischief Brew: Even better folk-punk, probably my favourite album this year.

Ah brilliant that takes me back, since i can remember we would listen to Paul Simon and Billy Joel tapes in the car on holiday, lasted a few years before we got older but it was great, i should find some of his stuff..

That is [i]EXACTLY[/i] what that album evokes from me. That is [i]AMAZING[/i].

[QUOTE=no peros calentes]Phil Spector[/QUOTE]

Kind of a creepy guy, but I respect how much amazing work he did in the '50s and '60s.

Everyone likes a creepy guy from time to time.

The Clash

I found a nifty bootleg and I'm enjoying it.

Well_Respected_Man 12-22-2005 11:46 PM

The Hot Snakes are my favorite band at the moment. "Suicide Invoice' has been on repeat for a long time.

Self-titled is better.

Daniel! 12-23-2005 03:45 PM

I think so too.

Glitterati 12-23-2005 04:53 PM

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds

I have sorely neglected this album. As good as The Beatles in their prime.
