OrdinaryBoy 02-08-2006 04:51 PM

I'm listening to:
The Ordinary boys; good songs are: Boys Will Be Boys, Week In Week Out, Maybe someday and Talk Talk Talk to name but a few.

The Arctic Monkeys (like every1 else). Their album is very good, also unreleased songs: Knock and Run and Settle For A Draw.

A brand new band I like are The Sunshine Underground, their song Commercial Breakdown is probably my favourite new song at the moment.

O yeah and masses of older stuff like: Lift - Radiohead, She sells Sanctuary - The Cult and Nothing Ever Lasts Forever - Echo and the bunnymen.

Ok, that looks awesome.

I tried out that Arctic Monkeys album. It bore me to death.

Seu Jorge - [I]The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions[/I]
This is the guitar playing fellow from [I]The Life Aquatic[/I]. All the tracks are acoustic versions of Bowie originals, aside from the last track, "Team Zissou." It's good, especially for a cover album.

Art Brut - [I]Bang Bang Rock & Roll[/I]
I didn't like this at all when I first listened to it a few months ago, but it's cool, sarcastic feel has grown on me.

Daniel! 02-08-2006 09:03 PM

Agent Orange - [I]Living In Darkness[/I]

First time listening to it. So far I'm loving it.

Happymeal 02-08-2006 09:21 PM

Just listened to [I]Penance Soiree[/I] by Icarus Line. I really didn't care for [I]Mono[/I], but dis rok me gud.

BillCosby 02-08-2006 11:08 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]OK I hear about this album all the time. Sum it up for me.[/QUOTE]

Instrumental electronica. But in an upbeat dancy way. But not in a stereotypical oonts oonts oonts European raver-club way. It's not straightforward dance, it goes off on some weird experimental tangents at times, and it uses a lot of metallic sounds and tones, but most of the songs still have a strong catchy hook.

I was gonna see Vitalic at the BDO, but I didn't.

br3ad_man 02-09-2006 06:02 AM

I didn't know what I would want to listen to this morning, so I put two random albums on my mp3 player, which turned out to be Stars and Daughters. I didn't feel like listening to either, but luckily I also had "New Grass" by Talk Talk on there and that's pretty much all I've listened to today.

pixiesfanyo 02-09-2006 06:12 AM

Bartender 02-09-2006 08:09 AM

Just listening to a bootleg titled "Ginger & Paul Gilbert - Acoustic Jam".

It's just what it sounds like, but it's quite good (apart from, sometimes, the sound quality - the disparity in volume between the playing and talking gets annoying); the two of them sitting in some small venue in Japan, taking requests (mostly for covers) from the crowd. Since they've got pretty much no control over what they play - and they don't feel they can refuse any requests - it all ends up quite chaotic. Some of the stranger stuff they end up playing includes acoustic versions of Ace of Spades and Suckerpunch, a song in Japanese, an advertising jingle (I think), and a Hanoi Rocks song that neither of them actually know.

Tomahawk 02-09-2006 10:19 AM

I got a Chris Isaak album today ([I]Heart Shaped World[/I])... he's better than I thought he was. Got a real Roy Orbison vibe going on.

I'm digging this Pakistani band called Junoon that a guitar student of mine last summer introduced me to, and they rock, but their music is extremely difficult to find here. The album I found is universally agreed to be the bad one. So if anyone has any Junoon, let a brother know.

Bukowski 02-09-2006 03:05 PM

Little Man being Erased 02-09-2006 04:16 PM

I'm listening to [I]Heroes[/I] by Bowie, for only about the second time since I got it. It didn't really connect the first time, so I'm hoping for better results this time.

The first half is fantastic, but I think I had a few problems with the second half.

You do know the story of his demise, don't you? It's really quite humorous.
