ert90 02-15-2006 06:18 PM

Hmm, first post . . .

I've been digging:

The Arcade Fire
Nick Drake
Iron & Wine
The Smiths
The Subways
Less Than Jake

Daniel! 02-15-2006 06:19 PM

I found a nifty mash-up type thing between the Beatles and the Beastie Boys that I'm enjoying. I probably won't listen to it more than one or two times though.

sketchyjoe 02-15-2006 06:21 PM

Phil Ochs

Particularly the albums I Ain't Marching Anymore and Tape From California

They surely were. It took me a little while to get into [I]Different Class[/I], but now I luuurrrve it.

Awesome stuff there. And welcome.


I dug Billy Bragg - [I]Back to Basics[/I], and now I'm diggin' on [I]Lullabies to Paralyze[/I].

Dog 02-15-2006 07:17 PM

The Feelies - [I]Crazy Rhythms[/I] -- Man, I love this album.

right now i'm listening to The Embarrassment - [I]Heyday: 1979-1983[/I] and it is GREAT. It's post punk that mixies the Feelies nervousness with the Replacements' kicka[size=2]s[/size]sy...ness. Definitely worth checking out if your a fan of that 80's american underground sound.

Robert Crumb 02-15-2006 07:22 PM

My phone has been ringing all afternoon and I don't wanna answer it. So I've been drowning it out with the Kinks.

Happymeal 02-15-2006 07:25 PM

I've been playing Propagandhi, Jello Biafra and Melvins, and Streetlight Manifesto alllllll day.

Daniel! 02-15-2006 07:27 PM

Daniel Johnston - Retired Boxer

Gooood good good. This guy is ace. Be sure you get [I]1990[/I] and [I]Yip/Jump Music[/I]; my two personal favorites of his. I'm also anticipating the d[SIZE="2"]o[/SIZE]cumentary.

[QUOTE=BillCosby]

And I'm diggin the new FLips more than some of you seem to be.[/QUOTE]

I like it alot. I'm surprised about the negative feedback on it.

pixiesfanyo 02-15-2006 07:44 PM

Saul Williams has a way with words. I think everyone should check him out already.

Ornery Cephalopod 02-15-2006 08:00 PM

I've been addicted to putting on Blonde Redhead - Misery is a Butterfly before going beddie-bye lately.

I'm currently giving my first proper listen to the Pink Mountaintops at the moment. Dig.

And some other minor, partial-album digs of the recent past:

Yeti (yay, finally found some!)
Outkast - Aquemini
All Girl Summer Fun Band
Spirit - Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus

Little Man being Erased 02-15-2006 08:02 PM

More Queens of the Stone Age. Now it's [I]Songs for the Deaf[/I].

asdf 02-15-2006 08:03 PM

Defiance, Ohio - Because I'm prepairing for the concert on friday
Sigur Ros - Because I'm prepairing for the concert on saturday
Estradasphere - Because I'm learning a song for my school's variety show.

Ornery Cephalopod 02-15-2006 08:04 PM

Awesome. What song?

asdf 02-15-2006 08:06 PM

[QUOTE=Ornery Cephalopod]Awesome. What song?[/QUOTE]
The Transformation for the album "It's understood"

I just hope it works out. The rest of the musicians I'm playing with aren't as dedicated to it as me. We've got 3 weeks until tryouts, and we haven't even praticed together yet.

EonBlueApcolyps 02-15-2006 08:08 PM

Wu-Tang Clan
Sigur Ros
An Albatross

As far as the first two go, and Im sure its true with most of you, once you see a band live you listen to them much more.

Thats 100% fact. Happend to me after seeing GWAR. I wish I could join you in saying I saw the Clan, but they came and it was 21 and up.

Zappa 02-15-2006 08:17 PM

I know a guy who calls them Anal Batross. Clever.

Happymeal 02-15-2006 09:26 PM

Now that^ is a cool band name.

biografiend 02-15-2006 11:30 PM

Maxine Darren.

A pretty cool 60's girlpop singer. My friend (who pretty much knows everything about 60's-70's girl pop and no wave) says that she is only 12 years old, which is pretty amazing and kindof creepy. She has an excellent voice. How Can I Hide It From My Heart? is an awesome song.

BillCosby 02-15-2006 11:42 PM

Femi Kuti - [I]Africa Shrine[/I]

This is pretty cool so far.

Little Man being Erased 02-16-2006 12:55 AM

Talking Heads - [I]More Songs About Buildings and Food[/I]
Gang of Four - [I]Solid Gold[/I]

These two bands are becoming two of my favourites of all time.

ATC 02-16-2006 01:48 AM

Eyayuh Beluah- Sentum Ayechwalu (North African music) - It's incredibly unique and textured in a really cool way. Not the generic Moroccan-type music but more progressive.

Ismael Rivera - Vaca Lechere - Not a lot of people can write a salsa song about milking a cow and make it sound good.

sketchyjoe 02-16-2006 03:47 AM

Madeline - KIssing and Dancing
Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison
Bob Dylan - Bringin' It All Back Home

Bartender 02-16-2006 05:33 AM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]I hate that drone crap, it's just not cricket.[/QUOTE]

There is some good stuff in amongst there.

br3ad_man 02-16-2006 05:56 AM

Pretty much nothing but Maudlin of the Well. [i]Bath[/i] is just so great.

penelope weird hands 02-16-2006 07:35 AM

The Frogs and The Mercury Program.

Tomahawk 02-16-2006 10:27 AM

I've listened to very little besides Crowded House for about a week now. Every album. They're becoming one of my favourite bands ever.

Also got in a few spins of the new Kate Bush album, it's really very good. Maybe my favourite album of hers.

Iai 02-16-2006 12:22 PM

The new Mogwai is very very good.

Now for the new Flips.

br3ad_man 02-16-2006 03:19 PM

I should order the new Mogwai soon.

Little Man being Erased 02-16-2006 03:20 PM

Lagwagon - [I]Let's Talk About Feelings[/I]

And now, Radiohead - [I]Hail to the Thief[/I]

OrbDragon 02-16-2006 03:29 PM

I'm digging:

The Kooks - Inside In And Inside Out
Annie - Anniemal
We Are Scientists - With Love And Squalor
Millionaire - Paradisiac
Kashmir - No Balance Palace

I really like the We Are Scientists record. I'm gonna see Kashmir tomorrow, really excited. If you haven't checked out their new album, you should right away!

pixiesfanyo 02-16-2006 03:30 PM

^ Funny story, I'm going to Norway, and the day before I get there the National Bank is playing in Oslo.

:(

OrbDragon 02-16-2006 03:32 PM

Norway is music heaven Europe right now...be sure to get alot of good records there. Motorpsycho's "Timothy's Monster" is one I really recommend.

Little Man being Erased 02-16-2006 04:19 PM

[QUOTE=OrbDragon]I'm gonna see Kashmir tomorrow, really excited. If you haven't checked out their new album, you should right away![/QUOTE]
Mmmmm, I really need to check that out. Kashmir are ace.
