[QUOTE=DogInTheSand]His Name Is Alive - [I]Home Is In Your Head[/I][/QUOTE]

Excellent band.

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 12:18 AM

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]oh you


I've pretty much been listening to [i]The Woods[/i][/QUOTE]

Awesome disc that one

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 12:19 AM

[QUOTE=BillCosby]I've never heard them, are they good? They're playing here tonight, I wanna know if missing something special.[/QUOTE]

Yeah you are missing something special.

Super Furry Animals are a band, like Flaming Lips, that make me genuinely happy when I lisaten to them. They don't really sound like the Lips, but the vibe is similar. They're Welsh, and crazy, and sun-soaked and just awesome and fun.

I love them.

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 12:21 AM

I think Neu! are quite a boring band indeed. They have their moments, yes, but ultimately they were just kinda awkward and "arty" for the sake of it.

br3ad_man 12-01-2005 12:22 AM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]Awesome disc that one[/QUOTE]

Awesome band. I've forgotten their singer's name, but man she is amazing.

I've been listening to The Jolly Rogers/Oh No! Oh My!. Best band EVAR.

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 12:24 AM

Should I listen to these Jolly Rogers? You guys, esp. you Andwaaa, whore them a fair bit but I've never been inclined to give them a go? Convince me.

Oh yeah, new Calexico is pretty good. It's not amazing but it's reliable (as Calexico always are) and still quite fresh sounding. Full length should be out early '06 I think, and that looks to be a baaaadarse record.

br3ad_man 12-01-2005 12:28 AM

Well, considering you can get a copy of both of their albums for $2, I'd say they are worth the effort.

I've still only got their first one, as I am waiting for them to bring out the version with artwork of the new album. I introduced them to mx :cool:

[url]http://www.thejollyrogers.org[/url] has mp3s. I'd reccomend, in the following order:

The Party Punch
A Walk In The Park
Oh Be One
The Pirate's Anthem
Jane Is Fat

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 12:35 AM

What do they sound like?

br3ad_man 12-01-2005 12:37 AM

folky indie pop

Sort of like a mix of Animal Collective and...I dunno. Their singer sounds a bit like the dude from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, but not as over the top or ridiculous.

Tangy zizzle 12-01-2005 01:20 AM

Pfft. Sounds like hippy longhair music.

Zappa 12-01-2005 05:26 AM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]I think Neu! are quite a boring band indeed. They have their moments, yes, but ultimately they were just kinda awkward and "arty" for the sake of it.[/QUOTE]

Pfft. You [I]are[/I] a long haired hippie. From New Zealand.

3rdplanet 12-01-2005 11:33 AM

Bought Bonobo's [i]Dial M for Monkey[/i] and I have to say it is much too much of a good thing.

Iai 12-01-2005 12:37 PM

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]What's it like? Average as hell, I bet.[/QUOTE]
A little better than that, but not much.

Little Man being Erased 12-01-2005 04:04 PM

[QUOTE=Iai]A little better than that, but not much.[/QUOTE]

el doctor 12-01-2005 04:18 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]...but you [I]like[/I] Can.[/QUOTE]That's what I was thinking.

Ive been digging [url= http://sigur-ros.co.uk//tour/2005/20051127.php]this[/url] for the past 2 hours. It can get a bit tedious at times, but it works well to keep in the background.

Can run circles around anything Neu! ever put out. They had groove, and rythym and soul man, soul.

Robert Crumb 12-01-2005 11:05 PM

[I]'75[/I] had some soul. But mostly, Neu! is a very functional band.

Roots Manuva
