Iv'e been 'digging' Help She Can't Swim's latest single - Midnight Garden
Miracle Chosuke - The 7/8 Wonders Of The World
Cursive - Domestica
Aphex Twin - Richard D James Album
and Explosions In The Sky - How Strange Innocence

And Br3ad Man you msised out Sometimes and Only Shallow two of the best tracks on the album.

br3ad_man 06-07-2006 04:23 AM

Where did I miss this? I'm confused. "Sometimes" owns anyway but "Only Shallow" is inferior to a lot of the other songs on the album.

Matisyahu - Live At Stubbs - I love this album so much. [I]King Without A Crown[/I] is so awesome!

Bukowski 06-07-2006 05:00 AM

90 Day Men - Panda Park
Thelonious Monk - Brilliant Corners

[QUOTE=Interstate]I'd give my left nut to see him live. That beatbox song on [I]LAS[/I] is incredible. I've heard he puts on quite a show.[/QUOTE]Yeah, he's pretty incredible. It was only really chance that I noticed tickets on sale at a ticket site I go on; it wasn't advertised on any of his websites. Great show though, great beatbox section, and I spoke to the bassist after who gave me a setlist :).

Listening to Shake Off The Dust right now, I much prefer it to Youth. Not sure how I rate it against Live At Stubbs though.

Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention

Seriously, it's been over a year since I last listened to Uncle Meat, Burnt Weenie Sandwhich and Weasels Ripped my Flesh. I'm enjoying this now more than ever.

Goddamn I need to see him live.

A Tribe Called Quest - [I]Midnight Marauders[/I]

The production/beats on this album are so fine.

Kyle 06-07-2006 10:41 AM

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]A Tribe Called Quest - [I]Midnight Marauders[/I[/QUOTE]Great album, I should probably listen to this more.

[QUOTE=asymm]Kieran Hebden & Steve Reid - [i]The Exchange Session Vol. 1[/i][/QUOTE]
Now [i]The Exchange Session Vol. 2[/i]. This is the better of the two, a little more action, and a considerable amount more of seemingly conscious interplay between the players.

My mother and I have probably purchased this album about six times. I got tired of losing it and having it stolen, so I downloaded it. :(

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]Scarface - [I]The Diary[/I]

oh man what a good album. Scarface has one of the coolest voices in rap.[/QUOTE]

[I]The Diary[/I] is sick as hell. Definitely one of the best hip hop/rap albums ever.

Interstate 06-07-2006 03:12 PM

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]I was thinking it'd be kind of a disposable but fun album, but I'm definitely leaning towards agreeing with you. Almost every track is awesome.[/QUOTE]

I've heard a couple of songs from other albums and I have [I]The Fix[/I] (which is watered down R&B which isn't really my thing) and none of them even touch anything off [I]The Diary[/I]. The group he was in before he went 'solo' (The Geto Boys) are good stuff too, pretty violent, but still good.

Just put on Slowdive - [I]Souvlaki[/I] - I'm starting to like this more on repeated listens. Glad I gave it another chance.

Jawaharal 06-07-2006 04:33 PM

Band Of Bees are awesome.

The Rolling Stones - [i]Aftermath[/i]
Danielson - [i]Ships[/i]
^ Not exactly digging this too much. It sounds like Architecture in Helsinki molesting the Decemberists with the aid of a kids choir. I enjoy the expansiveness of many of the tracks, but the vocals and the general high-pitch of it all can grate on one's nerves over time.

The Knife - [i]Silent Shout[/i]
When I first listened to this I didn't enjoy it in the least. It felt awkward and overly eccentric. But now, listening to it more and more, I've grown to appreciate the atmosphere and the sheer variety of sounds the group creates. Surprisingly, all of them are successful. Growing into one of my favorites from this year.

I don't like what I've heard of The Decemberists, but I really like that Danielson album. It doesn't seem grating at all to me for some reason, I know it should.

This new? I have one of their albums (something about asilent army?) and it's kinda cool.

Ornery Cephalopod 06-08-2006 04:02 AM

The soundtrack to my upcoming first amateur attempt at a little short film... I keep playing it to help plan the timing and shots and such.

Braniac - [i]P[/i]ussyfootin'
String Tribute to Slayer - War Ensemble
Cake - The Distance
Mark Mothersbaugh - Ping Island (Life Aquatic soundtrack)
Fantomas - The Omen (Ave Satani)
The Unicorns - Les Os
Tom Waits - Anywhere I Lay My Head

'Tis to be a poignant tale of a little pirate-skull-shaped piggy bank coming to life, escaping the house, riding a bike, dancing in competition vs. the Cowboy Ninja, fighting and brutally slaying the Cowboy Ninja, and eventually becoming distraught and committing suicide. Part stop motion, part live, and one intense "animated" scene where I videotape a bunch of ghetto poorly-drawn crayon-on-paper semi-anime-ish pictures with dramatically moving camera shots...

It will be epic.

Third Eye Blind - [I]Third Eye Blind[/I]
Method Man & Redman - [I]Blackout![/I]

Plus a few Matisyahu songs. I so need to see him live.

sketchyjoe 06-08-2006 05:16 AM

Your Heart Breaks: Awesome low-fi folky pop, like Michael Jordan Touchdown Pass but with female vocals. There are some songs [url=http://www.archive.org/details/masa028]here.[/url]

Lots of catchy pop-punk: The Copyrights, Radon, Visqueen, The Modern Machines, The Marked Men etc

Jumbo Shrimp: Great post-DK surf instrumentals from East Bay Ray and Klaus Flouride.

br3ad_man 06-08-2006 07:15 AM

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]My last.fm player just came up with a live version of "Back of a Car" by Big Star which is even better than the studio version. What a great band, completely ahead of their time.[/QUOTE]

I've got [i]Radio City[/i] and [i]#1 Record[/i] and I just don't see what's so good about either. I should probably give them another chance.

I've pretty much been listening to [i]Diary[/i] and [i]Surfer Rosa[/i], they're both amazing. Been listening to a bit of Fugazi as well.
