Got a mix of some alt/indie stuff and listened to it. Pissed Jeans is a pretty good sleazey noise-rock band that I'm sure Tangy is familiar with. The other songs were pretty much unremarkable or too stupid (Wolf Parade's vocals are terrible).

[QUOTE=Zappa]I just got the first four Talking Heads albums on DualDisc in the mail.:D[/QUOTE]

Are those the Rhino re-releases - in that big boxed set, but available individually, I think - or something else entirely?

Been listening to Kevin Gilbert's [I]The Shaming of the True[/I] today. Concept album about the music industry. Fairly prog-rock influenced. The good sort of prog, though.

[QUOTE=JonM]Found it on slsk. Can you post the track list so I can verify it?[/QUOTE]

All For U
Fire
Cornbread, Eddie and Me
Mooore
Supahero
Highlights
Disconnected
Caged Bird
Solomon Jones
A Sunday Mystery
Junior
Heaven
Here and Now
A Beautiful Mine

I can upload the thing when I go to Uni later if you got bum tracks. Slsk doesn't seem to be working for me.

That would be much appreciated. The user from whom I'm trying to get the album seems to be problematic. I have a lot of Acey/FF/Project Blowed records you might want in return.

You wouldn't happen to have his first solo one, do you? If not, that's cool. Let me know your email and I can send you a link once I'm over there.

People usually count which is his first solo album differently, but I have both [i]All Balls Don't Bounce[/i] and [i]A Book Of Human Language[/i], if either of those is the one you mean.

[email]jon@madvillain.com[/email] is my email address. How cool is that?

Those are them.

my user title and location are from the Minus the Bear song "Hooray," which has seriously been blowing my mind lately. in fact, the avatar kinda makes sense within the context of the song too :)

[I]All Balls[/I] was the one I was thinking of. Just put Mag City up on YSI. You should be getting an email at your very cool indeed address. If anyone else is interested, let me know and I can link you.

Oh yeah, and right now I've been listening to [I]White Light/white Heat[/I], thinking about whether or not I should write a review for it. I don't really want to write something for an album that's already been done, though.

[QUOTE=Zappa]Those are them.[/QUOTE]

I really need to get those, then. The production's always been pretty much my only problem with early Talking Heads albums.

Rhino seem to do some good reissues (based on these, and Elvis Costello).

In the Country - This Was the Pace Of My Heart Beat
Shining - Sweet Shanghi Devil
Parker & Lily - The Low Lows <--- Awesomeness
Habib Kotie - Baro <-- Im loving this Jon, thanks so much for it
and most important of all
Secede - Tryshasla

^ Best cd I've ever come across in a long, long time. Ambience at it's finest

Back Off Cupids - s/t

John Reis' (of Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes fame) mostly instrumental solo work. It has more varied styles than his band stuff, and easier on the ears. Some fans might like it more, some won't. Despite not hearing Rick Froberg yelling with his familiar riffing, it's a grower.

I'm totally digging Ted Leo this morning. The problem is I've got [i]The Tyranny of Distance[/i] and I always get bored before I finish listening to it. :(

[QUOTE=NachoChez]That's what I'm talking about.[/QUOTE]

Their other cd [I]Here Comes Winter[/I] is just as good. I feel as if I was watching My Bloody Valentine on stage and someone suddenly pressed the slow motion. I cant wait to see them live.

Cat Power - [i]The Greatest[/i]
Mountains - [i]Mountains[/i]
Catherine Wheel - [i]Chrome[/i]

Gary Numan.

I'm somewhat familiar, as in I know/like 3 songs of theirs.

I've been really into Jeff Buckley lately. A friend sent me a load of his stuff, now I have two of his albums.

I so remember that song.

Been listening to some Roxy Music.

High on Fire. I saw pixiesfanyo say they were the best metal band ever or something, so I checked them out. Not quite the best metal band ever, but still rather awesome.

Mischief Brew - [I]Smash the Windows[/I]

You rock. Erik Petersen is the dude in Mischief Brew isn't he? Is any of his stuff in his own name any good?

The way Captain Beefheart uses mellotron on [I]Doc at the Radar Station[/I] is pretty remarkable.

This album is so, so good.

The Live at the Punx Festival is the only one of his I have, and it's good. It's essentially Mischief Brew with only guitar. I'm gonna go get some more of his solo stuff off of slsk right now.

Dresden Dolls

Elevator Through - The Such

Slint
Big Black
Don Caballero

I found some good bootlegs of Mischief Brew, Ghost Mice, and Fugazi that I'm digging right now.
