[I]Wrong[/I] is an incredible album. Every time I listen to it, it blows me away. The Du albums are great also.

They really should do a reissue of that. So I can buy it. :(

Try ebay. Ebay has everything.

I've looked before with no luck.


EDIT: Just found one CD in Canada for $15 Canadian. F[size=2]uc[/size]k that.

Well that sucks. You could always buy it from amazon for $106.23

Yeah exactly.

Today I dug some Queens of the Stone Age, Converge, Belle and Sebastian and Broken Social Scene. Also I Heart Hiroshima.

The new Lips is growing on me, but it's still not nearly as good as the 1992-2002 era records. Or as consistant.

The best tracks are Mr. Ambulance Driver, The Sound Of Failure, It Overtakes Me, Haven't Got A Clue and Pompeii Am Gotterdammung (the only really mindblowing song on the album IMO). This record is a grower. With a record like Transmissions or Soft Bulletin, I was blown away from the first second. This record needs time to sink in. The songs on Mystics probably work better live than on record. Just a hunch of mine.

I consider myself to be a huge Flaming Lips fan, but I'm not sure if I'll buy this one. When's it out?

I've been digging Frog Eyes - The Golden River.
I like the dramatic lyrics, and the Tom Waits-ish percussion that randomly goes *ding* every now and again.

I'm digging Saul Williams again. He's really special. I'm so excited by the prospect of a return to poetry as a primary mode of expression, and it's kind of starting to happen.

Satori - Savor Every Moment
Lightning Bolt - Hypermagic Mountain

Nice calm trad ska followed by straight up noise rock. It's good shi't/

Ya I didn't get out much this week. I just now am getting into [I]Lullabies to Paralyze[/I].

1 Earth 36

Decent week this week. I always expect to have higher numbers than I do, which is because I use other mediums besides my computer's mp3s pretty regularly.

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Asymm's radio show thing - "Untitled; 1970"

this is pretty fly so far. One of my favorite Cocteau Twins songs, too.[/QUOTE]
Excellent man, hope you enjoy it!

Thats quite a lot of Big Boys.

My chart for the week.

1 Frank Sinatra 84
2 Dean Martin 79
3 Coliseum 56
4 Sammy Davis, Jr. 52
5 Sleater-Kinney 41
6 Danny Elfman 33
6 Dean Martin & Frank Sinatra 33
8 Lovage 25
9 Faith No More 18
10 Solomon Burke 17

I actually thought I'd listened to more Rat Pack, but otherwise it's about what I expected. I like that all those Coliseum listens only took up about an hour and a half.

As for now, I'm listening to the Lovage record again, and liking it more and more each time I do. It's so over the top, in it's own way. Might have to check out Jennifer Charles (Elysian Fields, I think?) a bit.

1 Guns N' Roses 94
2 Murder By Death 35
3 Black Label Society 23
4 Volto Do Mar 18
5 Kanye West 16

6 Pulp 30
7 Elvis Costello & The Attractions 22
8 Dirty Three 21
9 Fall Out Boy 20
10 Converge 17


Hmm. Good week overall. Converge is definitely not for me. I'm falling in love with the Housemartins.

It's not as bad as Jacaranda's, but my week was pretty lopsided.

Wow, I didn't know they were at all well known outside of Australia yet. I saw them live about a year ago. :cool:

My last.fm is screwed. I listened to about twice the amount of stuff that is listed.

10 Wheel That Giant Potato Salad Bowl Over Here, Earl 7

Overall I'd say it's been a week full of fake bands and I don't actually have a last.fm thing but I just want to see if anyone reads this crap because I really don't.

Wheel That Giant Potato Salad Bowl Over Here, Earl are awesome.

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]Wheel That Giant Potato Salad Bowl Over Here, Earl are awesome.[/QUOTE]

They're alright I guess. I mean, the [i]Chicks with Bricks[/i] EP was amazing, but their follow up album [i]Stab Me One For the Prussians[/i] was kind of lackluster. I just wish they didn't have so many filler tracks dealing with the Whiskey Rebellion, but what can you do?

I dunno man, I really kind of enjoyed [I]Stab Me One For the Prussians[/I]. But I guess my favourite release of theirs is the early [I]underground[/I] demo that they recorded in the bomb shelter under the drummer's barn. It's called [I]Bats Flying North-West[/I]. Keep an eye out for it.

okay i am going to have to call bullsh[size=2]it[/size] on that one. everyone knows Marion Coriander doesn't have a bomb shelter under his barn. that's just an urban legend :rolleyes:

he actually uses the space for a hyperbaric chamber that he sleeps in to maintain his youthful vigor and the stamina he needs to play songs like "Whatever Melons May Reign on Earth, I Know Honeydew Is Waiting For Me In Heaven."

Actually, now that you mention it, that does seem plausible. After all, the guys are pushing 40 these days. And "Whatever Melons May Reign on Earth, I Know Honeydew Is Waiting For Me In Heaven" takes a fair bit of stamina to pull off. My band used to cover that song, but our drummer couldn't handle it, so we had to stop.

Now we just play a wicked cover of "The Night the Evil Frost Came and Stole Our Entire Eggplant Crop."

YdLoad is a my fave.
