Wow you like metal.

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Wow you like metal.[/QUOTE]

Pretty assholish words for the former "mx anti-metalhead!"

[QUOTE=YDload]Pretty assholish words for the former "mx anti-metalhead!"[/QUOTE]

Wait.

Is this directed at Br3ad or myself?

[QUOTE=YDload]Pretty assholish words for the former "mx anti-metalhead!"[/QUOTE]

I don't get it. Pixies doesn't normally like metal, now he's listening Cynic. That's all my post was supposed to mean...

I thought he DID like a good deal of metal, even if it was in the vein of hardcore-influenced stuff that's a little hard to define unless you listen to as much of it as he does and can distinguish among the bands.

Metal is good.

Ah, well, sorry. My bad. Didn't mean to be rude.

Don't take that Andy. It's only the interweb.

Metal sucks, man.


This stuff is good:

Kanye West - [I]The College Dropout[/I]
The Pogues - [I]Rum, Sodomy and the Lash[/I]
The Beatles - [I]Help![/I]

College Dropout > Late Registration

I've been diggin' that too, aswell as some Viktor Vaughan.

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Ah, well, sorry. My bad. Didn't mean to be rude.[/QUOTE]

It wasn't being rude.

I have expressed a distaste for metal in the past.

And most of it sucks.

Quasi - The Sword of God

Good, good stuff here.

You promote something in two threads at once, I check it out.

EiTS - [I]The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place[/I]

And a ton of hip hop.

I'm digging a quick playlist I threw together for a Mix CD contest...
Topic - "Blanket Reality: Music when staying in bed is the best option"

1. Red House Painters - "Grace Cathedral Park"
2. Nick Drake - "Hanging on a Star"
3. Vinny Miller - "Bagged and Tagged"
4. Aimee Mann - "Wise Up"
5. Low - "Over the Ocean"
6. Smog - "Rock Bottom Riser"
7. Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - "(Are You) The One I've Been Waiting For?"
8. Bruce Springsteen - "Atlantic City"
9. REM - "Perfect Circle"
10. Sun Kil Moon - "Carry Me Ohio"

It's nothing too special, but I think it flows well and it's at least suitable for the theme. Plus I love starting and ending with Kozelek.

Quasi! Quasi! I dig them!

This post interested me enough to look up a Spaceboy review... and the review interested me even more...

So now I'm a few minutes into diggin' this album, and I have you to thank for that. It's pretty neat so far.

I've also been diggin' on these chaps in the recent past:

Calexico - Garden Ruin
The Robot Ate Me - Carousel Waltz
Isis - Celestial
HORSE the band - The Mechanical Hand

mmmmmmmm.

[quote=Ornery Cephalopod]HORSE the band - The Mechanical Hand[/quote]
Wait, are HORSE The Band and Band Of Horses two different bands?

[QUOTE=JonM]Wait, are HORSE The Band and Band Of Horses two different bands?[/QUOTE]

Indeed.

HORSE the band play what some have dubbed "Nintendocore"... I'm not exactly familiar with Band of Horses, but I gather that they're some sort of indie-ish group or something. I dunno, I haven't payed enough attention to their hype to remember...

But yes, different indeed.

Flaming Lips.

I'm dressed like Wayne right now (beard, suit, fake blood and all) right now. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee3rhrgrgu

AFI - [I]Sing the Sorrow[/I]

plus some random songs on rage, now it's The Streets - "When You Wasn't Famous"

RAD

[QUOTE=JonM]Quasi! Quasi! I dig them![/QUOTE]


:-D

Today I was mainly jammin' to MF Doom - Mmm Food

[size=1]spice girls[/size]

[quote=Ornery Cephalopod]Robot Ate Me[/quote]

Robot Ate Me are awesome. Speaking of Robot Ate Me and awesome, the new Oh No! Oh My! album is out and it was mastered by the dude from Robot Ate Me.

Scarface - [I]The Diary[/I]
Geto Boys - [I]Till Death Do Us Part[/I]

OLD SKOOL :cool:

New Artist, Very Mellow fingerstyle guitar
 

Beautiful Guitar on this one Guys.
Mentions something about 'Japanese Scales' on his My Space.....Dunno about that but it's well worth a free download on My Space and you can contribute to the artist at his web page by buying downloads online.

Hope you like him

Prince - The Symbol Album
Wolf Eyes - Burned Mind (Well...not really [I]digging[/I] it. I dunno.)
Xiu Xiu - Knife Play

They rock. I've been into them since I saw them open for Iron & Wine a year or so ago. I bought the new LP the day it came out, and was not the least bit disappointed. Nothing life-changing, but definitely enjoyable. It's basically indie rock, but it's much more interesting than just that. There's like banjos and alt-countryness and stuff.

They are good, but they don't have much replay value, in my opinion.

I've been diggin' the new Eagles of Death Metal.

Stephen Malkmus- Face the Truth
Belle and Sebastian- Push bar man to open old wounds
Shinobu- Herostratus vs. time (really good unknown band on Asian Man Records)

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]Lilys - [I]Everything Wrong Is Imaginary[/I]
T.I. - [I]King[/I]
Islands - [I]Return to the Sea[/I]

probably my three favorites so far this year, I don't know.[/QUOTE]

Hopefully Nas's new release is good.

I have high hopes with the Jay-Z budget and all.

Mike Patton's Peeping Tom thing leaked, and I'm really impressed by it. Best thing he's done since Bungle split, and definitely my favourite album of the year so far.

I heard that it did.

It's like a pop album right? (explain to me)

X - Los Angeles

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite punk albums of all time.

This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours is just awesome. Probably my second favorite Manics album now.

[QUOTE=XxcheetoxX]This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours is just awesome. Probably my second favorite Manics album now.[/QUOTE]
