1 Sufjan Stevens 90
2 Six Organs of Admittance 39
3 I Heart Hiroshima 35
3 Thomas Newman 35
5 Antony and the Johnsons 27
6 Ulver 23
7 Deerhoof 20
8 Tom Waits 19
9 Unwed Sailor 17
10 Belle and Sebastian 15

I finally like Illinois a bit. I give it a 3.5. I was mainly listening to Sufjan's Christmas albums, they are very nice. I might make a thread about them.

1 Wire 169
2 Rachel's 74
3 Do Make Say Think 55
4 Wolf Parade 44
5 The Flaming Lips 42
5 Explosions in the Sky 42
5 A Perfect Circle 42
8 Iron & Wine 41
9 Godspeed You! Black Emperor 34
9 Mono 34

Wow, I didn't think I listened to so much Wire. Half the time I can't even tell when one of their songs ends and another begins.

I downloaded K'naan's [I]The Dusty Foot Philosopher[/I] due to JonM's whoring, and it's really good.

Interstate 11-21-2005 03:19 PM

Devendra Banhart - [I]Cripple Crow[/I] - Still don't like him as much as I'd like to.
Jay Z - [I]The Black Album[/I]
Anthony & The Johnsons - [I]I Am A Bird Now[/I] - really starting to like this album.

br3ad_man 11-21-2005 04:54 PM

Man. Gospel. Freaking Gospel. This album is so awesome.

EDIT: But I don't hear any CTTS in it. I hear a little bit of City of Caterpillar though.

I'd say this is a good pick for people who like the Mars Volta, but want more metal and less quasi-prog-craziness.

Luxor 11-21-2005 06:16 PM

Gospel <3

Zesty Mordant 11-21-2005 06:23 PM

Sunny Day Real Estate- [I]Diary[/I]

I've had it for a few years but I never really gave it a chance until a few days ago and I've been listening to it ever since.

Also,
Nas- [I]Illmatic[/I]
DEP- [I]Miss Machine[/I]
Ween- [I]Quebec [/I](soooooo underrated!)

[QUOTE=YDload]What's this again? Tell me![/QUOTE]
I'd send but my connection is poo. :o Just hit up soulseek for [I]The Moon Is a Dead World[/I]. It's like prog meets punk meets an almost post-rock kind of structure. Or as all music puts it, it bridges the gap between Slint and King Crimson.

Me digging:
Kaada/Patton - [i]Romances[/i]
Serena Maneesh - s/t
Joanna Newsom - [i]The Milk-Eyed Mender[/i]

Smackers 11-21-2005 06:46 PM

Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto - Insen
Pineapple Thief - 10 Stories Down
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads (this is my favorite Christmas album)

Luxor 11-21-2005 06:47 PM

Gospel = Psychadelic-indie-hardcore. Or something along those lines.

There are some songs (four, I think, and apparently amongst the better ones on the album) available to play on their site. [url]http://www.themoonisadeadworld.com[/url], I think. Named after the album.

JonM 11-21-2005 06:48 PM

I've been listening to a lot of Alternative but only a little Indie.

I listened to an allmusic sample of "Yr Electric Surge is Sweet" and now I'm hooked. This band sounds awesome!

Thanks for the link Bartender. This is definitely a band I have to dig into. They're like The Fall of Troy with less whining and more \m/

Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life
[/QUOTE]

I loooooooove this album. I have to say this.

Anyway, I'm really into [I]Kid A[/I] lately. I've heard some people say they don't like a lot of the weird prog stuff, but I like it.

JonM 11-21-2005 09:31 PM
