Yeah, you should get [I]On Fire[/I]. It's my favorite, and if you like that you'll probably like their other two albums. Good band.

I'd say just work chronologically - starting with [i]Today[/i] and moving from there. The general consensus is that their second album [i]On Fire[/i] is their greatest work, so you could start there. I enjoy them both but prefer [i]Today[/i].

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Did you see them?[/QUOTE]
Sure did. They were a little disappointing though. The sound was a bit off and it was sometimes hard to distinguish songs. They finished with "Chemical Calisthenics" though, so that was awesome.

Oh and I shook Chief Xcel's hand.

Yup. lots more punk and hardcore lately. I also have developed an unhealthy love for Streelight Manifesto. [I]Everything Goes Numb[/I] is so good.

This isn't very good, but it's enjoyable enough.

All the cool kids still post their audioscrobbler lists in here.

My list is really odd this week:
1 CocoRosie 24
2 Ravi Shankar 21
2 Hossein 'Omoumi 21
4 Devendra Banhart 17
5 José González 16
6 Amadou & Mariam 15
7 Talib Kweli 12
8 Augustus Pablo 11
9 The Streets 10
10 Andrew Bird 9

Not a very heavy listening week. Too much studying I suppose.

YDload 12-18-2005 06:19 PM

Bad Religion is a pretty good band, I suppose. They probably have among the best singer in punk.

Electrocution 12-18-2005 06:32 PM

My monitor broke, and my monitor has speakers on it, so I didn't listen to a lot.

Suffer and No Control are their highpoint. THey have some other good stuff too though.

Greg Graffin is a good singer but far from the best.
