The Drones - [I]Wait Long by The River & the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By[/I]
I'm going to keep listening to this album until I hate it, then I'm going to keep playing it until it's burnt into my ears somehow. I've just started paying attention to the lyrics, and man they're good. Gareth Lyddiard is a fragile man. Australia has some s[I]h[/I]it it needs to sort out.

Now that I sorted my 'Japanese' folder artists into real folder genres I'm listening to all my Shibuya-kei again.

So much love for Kahimi Karie and Takako Minekawa. Love for Cornelius too, but in a manly way.

Spoon - [I]Gimme Fiction[/I]
Cyne - [I]Evolution Fight[/I]

and right now it's Half Japanese's [I]Sing No Evil[/I]. I feel a HJ kick coming on. Good times.

Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins - [I]Rabbit Fur Coat[/I]

It's pretty sparse (in a good way), and she's got a really pretty voice. Some country southwestern flavors in there too.

Ladytron - [I]Witching Hour[/I]

It's "electro" or "electro-clash" or whatever. It's got synthesizers. It's alright. Decent homework music at least.

The Mars Volta - [I]Frances the Mute[/I]

Specifically, "Cassandra Geminni". I don't care if you most of you dislike TMV/this album, that song is bomb diggity.

Refused - [I]The Shape of Punk to Come[/I]

Awsome.

Animal Collective is pretty groovy.

What ever happened to The Ashtray Girl?

Langley Schools Music Project (1976-77)
Television
David Bowie
Elton John
A Certain Ratio

The Langley Schools Music Project is pretty sweet. Basically, it's a group of grade schoolers doing covers of 70's songs, including stuff by Brian Wilson, the Beatles, and a hawt cover of Space Oddity by David Bowie. Definitely worth checking out, most of the covers are interestingly good. Its on regnyouth rite now.

Minus The Bear- [i]Highly Refined Pirates, Menos El Oso[/i]

I can't decide which album is better. Most people say the former, but they're both really good.

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]What ever happened to The Ashtray Girl?[/QUOTE]

She gradually dissapeared so no one really noticed so much I think. :(

Who's filling the alt/indie token lesbian role then?

I guess the spot is empty at the time being.


This reminds me of a time when Orb wrote a review of an Ani DiFranco album and and someone (pixiesfanyo?) said "this would be better if I was a female lesbian" and I laughed.

Isaac Hayes - Shaft OST

He does it better than Barry White. Or at least I seem to think so.

Who's that black private dick who's the sex machine to all those chicks?

Adolescents - s/t
The Rudiments - Bitch Bitch Bitch
Captain Beefheart - Doc at The Radar Station

Yeah Zappa, that's a good Beefheart album, i commend your recommendation. Not as good as TMR, but much better than Ice Cream for Crow. Run Paint Run Run is my favorite song there.

I havn't listened to the Rudiments for a little while, thats one of my favorite ska punk albums. Great band.

Adolescents are an old favorite, and i still love them. I've been getting back into alot of hardcore i stopped listening to just after i joined this forum. Nothing beats the honesty and passion of 80s hardcore punk.

[QUOTE=Happymeal]He does it better than Barry White. Or at least I seem to think so.[/QUOTE]

It's true.

I've been listening to the Slits a lot lately, which is odd because I thought I hated [I]Cut[/I]. Upon further inspection, I still hate it. But there are a couple really good songs in that mess. Ari Up's voice is growing on me.
