There were cheap Sonic Youth cds at JB today, so I bought [I]Confusion Is Sex[/I]. Maybe I'll dig it.

I'm digging The Magnetic Fields - I.

Aftersquawk
Gambling Art
Savagery
The Pandas
Mauve

im new to this thing.but i take it that everyone knows bout the arctic monkeys?the best band of 2005?the best band in 2006-wait and see... they are big in england.

Songs to check out:
from the ritz to the rubble
bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
choo choo
a certain romance



another band is the rakes-totally british i know but theyre class especially live.Reuben are another overlooked quality band-heavier... Just thought id let you know bout 3 of my fave bands at present

[QUOTE=NachoChez]anyway

Indian Summer - [I]Discography[/I] and [I]Live: Blue Universe[/I]

[I]Discography[/I] = top five emo albums of all time. It is imperative that everyone checks it out if you like early emo at all.[/QUOTE]

Meh. It's decent. But Angry Son is the only truly memorable song in my opinon.

i predict big things for
mystery jets
editors
young knives
arctic monkeys (sorry but it's true)
plan b
and perhaps maximo park will get bigger
and definatly willy mason will hit the big time

[QUOTE=NachoChez]You're just making up band names, aren't you?[/QUOTE]

No, you're obviously just not indie enough.

Angry Samoans
fIREHOSE

fIREHOSE don't get enough credit. They may forever live in Minutemen's shadow, but they're still pretty damn good. George Hurley really shines with them.

True.


I'm having a D.C. hardcore phase as of late.

[QUOTE=BillCosby]Not to mention a member in Oingo Boingo, who had their moments (few and far between, but there).[/QUOTE]

This guy brought in an Oingo Boingo CD into work today for me to hear.

Catchy songs, but not really my bag.

I like Ed Crawford's style.

I dont claim to be "Indie" or anything but The Exit kicks ***. As does Grandaddy

Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - [I]Streetcore[/I]

[i]Ragin' Full-On[/i] is one of my top 10 favorite cd's of all time. George Hurley is also my favorite drummer of all time. Go fIREHOSE.

That's a good album in my book.

A vinyl copy of it is floating around somewhere in the US mail system trying to find it's way to my house.

That is an awesome album.

Long Shadow and Get Down Moses are my two favorites.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Boris - [I]Pink[/I]

this is fun. I can't classify it at all. The Melvins on speed, maybe.[/QUOTE]

I need to hear that. Boris rules.

Get Down Moses is so great.

He has a great hairdo.

I've had "Nothing Is A Switch" by The Mint Chicks stuck in my head all the time. What a fun song. If anyone could reccomend me anything similar, I would be very pleased.

The Cure - [i]Faith[/i]
I really love this album, I think it's one of the more overlooked Cure albums.

Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane - [I]At Carnegie Hall[/I]
Art Blakey - [I]Moanin'[/I] (thanks Zappa)
Imogen Heap (desperate to get one of her albums)

X-Cops - [I]You have The Right To Remain Silent...[/I]

This is basically the 95' incarnation of GWAR and maybe two others as as, you guessed it, ex-cops. All were discharged from the force for horrible acts, even horrible for a cop....and they get away with almost anything. But yeah it's good fun metal. I like it alot I'd recomend it to fans of GWAR or metal or punk or thrash or anything of the like or sandwiches.

Trojan Skinhead Reggae Box Set
Trojan Roots Reggae Box Set

Busdriver, Busdriver, Busdriver, Busdriver, Busdriver, Busdriver

See avatar for what I'm digging.

Today I've discovered the greatness of the Allman Brother's album [I]Eat A Peach[/I]. It's truely a masterpiece.

Battles!

They are a local band for me (DC). Very cool melodies, with lots of loops. The drumming is very tight as well. I highly reccomend them.

[COLOR="Red"]The Slits[/COLOR]

Great Music. I have had the 'Cut' album for some time but never got into it.
The drums have a nice thud to them. Sometimes the lyrics are chanted making the whole reggae/tribal music sound more enchanting.

GY!BE - F#A#
Explosions In The Sky - Those Who Tell The Truth...
Bob Dylan - MTV Unplugged

The Stokes new CD has had all my attention lately

[QUOTE=Interstate]Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane - [I]At Carnegie Hall[/I][/QUOTE]

Word.

Today I've been listening to Mott The Hoople.

Emo.

Indian Summer
Embrace
Rites of Spring
I Hate Myself

thats my week.

are embrace really considered emo?

The Embrace I'm thinking of. Not the brit-pop one, the D.C. one, I believe so, yes.

ah..i got mixed up

Its evil that that band took the originals name. Even if they didn't know it at the time.

i actually quite like the brit-pop embrace so i don't care:p

Well then they should change their name to Brit-pop Embrace.

Against Me! - [I]Cavalier Eternal[/I]
Fugazi - [I]Furniture[/I]

They're both 7" vinyls that came in the mail today. The Against Me! one is fantastic.
