It's growing on me.

Husker Du - Zen Arcade
Husker Du - New Day Rising
Husker Du - Everything Falls Apart

I'm a bit obsessed with [I]Astral Weeks[/I] right now.

I've also been listening to some Neil Young, the Pop Group, Neu, and Peter Gabriel. But mainly Van Morrison.

[QUOTE=Tomahawk]the Pop Group[/QUOTE]

Excellent band.

I've stopped listening to Husker Du, and am now listening to Stereolab for the first time. My first impression is quite good.

[QUOTE=Daniel!][B]Husker Du - New Day Rising[/B]
A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory
Beck - Mellow Gold[/QUOTE]

That's my favorite album out of their catalogue.

The Clash - [I]London Calling[/I]
[I]Shawshank Redemption OST[/I]

I've just got back into Yes - [I]Tales From Topographic Oceans[/I] again, possibly the single most conceptual and cerebral album of all time. However, when the whole band entered for the first time, I literally had goosebumps and the hair on my arms was standing right straight up.

The beginning of the Revealing Science of God is awesome. It takes quite a bit of effort to take in all of the album in one sitting though.

That's very true... there are moments of pure genius and musical euphoria, but the album as a whole is a little overwhelming.

Glassjaw - [I]Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence[/I]
Poison The Well - [I]You Come Before You[/I]
Converge. (I really need to get one of their albums soon but I don't know which one to get. Should I get [I]Jane Doe[/I] or [I]You Fail Me[/I]?

Yeah my ears have taken a good battering tonight. :cool:

Jane Doe would be a pretty good introduction. But after that I recommend you work backwards. You Fail Me is a good album, but their older works, in my opinion, are better.

Bardo Pond(neo-psych/stoner band with post-rock length songs)
the usual Strung Out
The Living End

Fair enough. By older works I meant specifically [I]When Forever Comes Crashing [/I]and [I]Petitioning The Empty Sky[/I]. You Fail Me is definitely a good album, but comparitively speaking its not the best, especially not for an introduction to Converge.

[QUOTE=Happymeal]Bardo Pond(neo-psych/stoner band with post-rock length songs)[/QUOTE]

They sound good.


Lots of Manowar
Alex Drosen - Sit and Melt
DJ Spooky vs Dave Lombardo - Drums of Death
Lots and lots of Talking Heads

This morning:
The Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground and Nico

This afternoon:
Black Flag - Damaged

[QUOTE=NachoChez]I respectfully disagree. [i]Jane Doe[/i] and [i]You Fail Me[/i] are absolutely brilliant, [i]When Forever Comes Crashing[/i] is great, [i]Petitioning[/i] is alright and [i]Caring and Killing[/i] is pretty weak.[/QUOTE]
Eugh...

[i]You Fail Me[/i] is garbage. Just complete garbage.. it's not even worth the time taken to actually listen to it. I feel like I've lost something after listening to that album.

Get [i]Jane Doe[/i], or [i]Petitioning The Empty Sky[/i].

[QUOTE=Luxor]Eugh...

[i]You Fail Me[/i] is garbage. Just complete garbage.. it's not even worth the time taken to actually listen to it. I feel like I've lost something after listening to that album.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]I love [i]You Fail Me[/i]. The performances are great, the songs are great, it's all great. Different strokes for different folks.[/QUOTE]

Yeah same. Some older fans can appreciate it, some won't.

I just saw the movie [I]You and Me and Everyone You Know[/I].

I am getting the score on CD, for sure. It was written by Michael Andrews, whose first project was the score for[I] Donnie Darko[/I]. I have now decided he is the man.

Yes!

There's no smiley to respond to that. But I'm glad you too have seen the film.

Hot Snakes - [I]Suicide Invoice[/I]

Torrented 2 Nick Drake records recently. Bryter Layter and Five Leaves left.

I agree. [I]You Fail Me[/I] is genius, I like it as much as [i]Jane Doe[/i] and it took way less effort to get into.
