:p Jarvis Cocker... I realised I left a 'not' out before 'heard' there. Ah well.
Jarvis isn't the most likeable name, I can sympathise with you there, though I don't know ay personally...

Yes, the name Jarvis just oozes stupidity.

morrissey 10-19-2005 05:37 PM

Cocker doesn't help much.

[QUOTE=morrissey]Cocker doesn't help much.[/QUOTE]

Yes, I'll have to agree with you there Amanda.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Afghan Whigs - [i]Congregation[/i]

This band isn't any good unless they're in full-on rock mode. [i]Up In It[/i] and [i]Congregation[/i] are solid, [i]Gentlemen[/i] is hit-or-miss, and [i]Black Love[/i] is awful.[/QUOTE]

What year did that album come out?

morrissey 10-19-2005 06:15 PM

Nice nice on Gold.

I know a Jervis. Does that count?

I'm digging a Nick Cave/Tom Waits compilation that I didn't know existed(A Flowerdance Collection?) I came upon in soulseek featuring collaborations with Concrete Blonde, Primus, Elvis Costello, Dirty Three and PJ Harvey among others.

That's even worse so yeah it counts.

morrissey 10-19-2005 06:29 PM

It's ok we can obsess over him together. <3

You do need to move on though, he's got much better stuff to fawn over.

Robert Crumb 10-19-2005 06:30 PM

[QUOTE=Robert Crumb]Calvin Johnson - Before the Dream Fades
Dios (Malos) - Dios (Malos)[/QUOTE]

Half of the Calvin Johnson album is nice. The other half is pretty darn putrid. He does these little, almost acapella numbers. His voice has always been tough to get along with but you'll get used to it. That's not the problem. The problem is the tracks behind him just sound lame. That's the way it works for the four of the first five tracks. And then he does some more conventional stuff, you know, Calvin Johnson pop stuff. Those songs aren't so bad, they're actually pretty enjoyable. "The Leaves of Tea" is fun.

Dios (Malos) is just a decent album, too. At least at first glance. They've kinda changed stuff up, they're not so mellow at least not as much before, which is probably them being reactionary for having a Beach Boy reference in every review they've ever gotten. Now it's more Pavement-ish/Grandaddy-ish, with the same pop influence they had before. They sound like they're from the Central Valley. Most of the stuff is kinda hit and miss, but they still do nice hooks.

Just in case you were wondering.

[QUOTE=Well_Respected_Man]Animal Collective has new record?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, it just came out. Its called [i]Feels[/i].

Doctor D. 10-19-2005 08:25 PM

I saw Gwar last night. I was blown away, so today I've been in a Gwar state of mind.

Beulah - [i]When Your Heartstrings Break[/i]

It's been a fairly long time since I listemed to this. It's still by far one of my favorite indie pop records.

Dude i think you need to check the thread you're in. "What I've been digging lately" usually means you've listened to it recently.

anyways, Wolf Parade has been dominating my playlist recently....

Zappa 10-19-2005 08:55 PM

Hey Nacho, would you like to hear the album I recently finished? AIM me or jump on slsk, if you're interested. I'd like you to hear it, I think.

Zappa 10-19-2005 08:59 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Should I care about DangerDoom?[/QUOTE]
If you're already a fan of MF or Dangermouse's work you'll probably enjoy it. There's some good beats by DM and lyric-wise it's typical humerous MF Doom. It's also got a few little adult swim mini-skit clippet things that make me giggle like a little girl. Right now I'd rate it 3(maybe 3.5)/5

Zappa 10-19-2005 09:09 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]fix your profile, ho[/QUOTE]

Wow, I guess that's always been wrong. Well, it wasn't wrong like 3 years ago. But...wow.

Against Me! - [I]Acoustic EP[/I]
AFI - [I]Sing the Sorrow[/I]

I was reuploading all my music on my computer, but I only got to Beulah before I quit. Takes too long.

Hand 10-19-2005 10:05 PM

Awesome man, thanks. Welcome back by the way, haven't seen you in a while.

I don't think I can download that because my internet was rate limited to 128kbps by AOL because I couldn't install their new drivers to upgrade to the 'easy improved' network.
I have to reinstall Windows because there's something wrong with the PC installing the new drivers and I've tried EVERYTHING. Before I do that though I have to get all my 300+ albums + 1500 odd songs/videos I have onto cds. That's gonna take alot of cds :upset:

TalkingHead 10-20-2005 03:16 PM

Anytime man, and thanks.

And wow, that sucks alot. Invest in an external hardrive, it's the most beautiful invention since the dawn of binarty digits. Once you get your pc back and running, pass by nougat or AIM and I'll send it to you :).
