This is really, really good. Well no, I'll be honest. I know that after about 5 listens I'll think this is really, really good.

Woah! Woah! I gave in and downloaded the new Bronx album.

I loved them before, but now I'm completely enamoured. Best rock record of the year so far. Some songs are kinda QOTSA-ish, some are just balls out punk. There's even an almost-ballad.

two gallants are amazing.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]two gallants are amazing.[/QUOTE]

I can't stop listening to them...it's been that way for a while. I think I'm going to write a review on "The Throes" soon.

Yea, that's the album I have.

The album has a few weak spots, but when it is good it is GOOD.

Well, I suggest getting "What the Toll Tells", it's fantastic.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]two gallants are amazing.[/QUOTE]

The few songs that I've heard from them are mindblowing.

This morning so far:

Rocky Votolato - [I]Makers[/I] - Been meaning to hear this for ages but only just got around to downloading it. So far it's good.

There's one of the new tracks up there, if you can't get hold of the full thing.[/QUOTE]

Awesome man, thanks!:)

Been Diggin' Sparta today, hadn;t heard too much of them before, but they're much better than I thought they would be.

Xiu Xiu owns your face.

Xiu Xiu is over rated to the extreme.

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]Xiu Xiu is over rated to the extreme.[/QUOTE]

I find [I]Fabulous Muscles[/I] a very challenging listen to say the least.

I've been digging Therapy? and Manic Street Preachers lately :)

In my experience, the correlation between a band's perceived overratedness and the quality of said band's live show is pretty strong. Band's who play awesome sets tend to get their recorded stuff played down. Except Interpol. Those guys are just overrated and horrible all around.

Was digging this [I]Eccentric Soul: The Capsoul Label[/I] compilation thing yesterday, some pretty nice songs and one absolute knockout in Kool Blues' "I'm Gonna Keep On Loving You." I'll probably continue the diggage trend.

Butthole Surfers
Frank Zappa - Freak Out

Brian Eno - [I]Another Green World[/I]
Brian Eno - [I]Ambient 1: Music For Airports[/I]
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - [I]Let Love In[/I]

I've been digging [I]Another Green World[/I] alot more recently. Which Eno album/collaboration shall I get next?

Also been digging The Magnetic Fields.

[QUOTE=Interstate]Which Eno album/collaboration shall I get next?[/QUOTE]

[i]Taking Tiger Mountain (by Strategy)[/I]. That's what I'm currently diggining, it may actually be better then [I]Another Green World[/I].

here come the warm jets

easily my favorite eno album

I've heard it's good, I'm trying to download it now. Ever since that stupid virus on my pc (which hasn't completely been cleared up yet) my Soulseek is going really really slow.

EDIT:

My Last FM seems to have updated itself quickly this time:

very strange, l'antietam doesn't show up anywhere in my overall list, and i've listened to them much more then sixty times, i listened to just one song sixty times...

At the Drive-in had arguablly one of the best live shows, but their recordings are pretty average.

Anyways, I just find Xiu Xiu does the same thing over and over again, it gets boring.

10 Beat Happening 6

It always seems like my last.fm has selective memory. But I am loving me some Tom Zé right now.

I'm digging the Cure alot lately.

I think they finally connected with me, which makes me happy because I always loved their singles.

Feist.

More Unicorns love, and a lot of Murder City Devils. Not a bad thing, just more than I remembered.

how is there even enough time in a week to eat, sleep, and listen to elvis four hundred and five times

Elvis 405 is the band's name. They're a pop-punk band that got attention briefly in the mid-90s because the number in their name is the area code for Oklahoma City. Everyone thought they were Timothy McVeigh sympathizers and they never lived it down. Guitarist John Hymenthal later killed himself by drinking bleach.

Nothin' amazing, a lot of stuff carried on from last week.

Anyway, I'm listening to Brian Eno's [I]Ambient 1: Music For Airports[/I] today. Such a beautiful album. I find it incredible how something so seemingly repetitive and simple like 1/1 can be simulataneously emotionally stirring. Brian Eno is a musical genious.

1. Arctic Monkeys - 100
2. ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - 53
3. The Decemberists - 27
4. Nada Surf - 10
4. The Arcade Fire - 10
6. Iron Maiden - 9
7. The Rolling Stones - 8
8. Aerosmith - 6
8. Iron & Wine - 6
10. Queens of the Stone Age - 4
Oh Sasquatch.

How could you listen to the Arctic Monkeys 100 times? Don't they only have one album?

i think im going to barf
