[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]Say Anything, probably the third best pop-punk band after Coheed and Thrice.[/QUOTE]

Yes, very much so. Except I don't really like Coheed. Should I get [i]3[/i]? It's on sale for $10.


Diggage:

Do Make Say Think - [i]& Yet & Yet[/i] (good for studying)
Antony and the Johnsons
Birds Are Spies, They Report To The Trees

[QUOTE=Tangy]I want to know what Thrice are like as people.[/QUOTE]

Apparently they are good blokes. They seem cool in the interviews I've read. I'm pretty sure most of them are christians too.

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]I dunno how to exactly describe The Cramps. Greasy, bluesy, rockabilly garage punk.[/QUOTE]

I'd say that's perfect.

I've been diggin' Minutemen and Meat Puppets.

I was listening to Coheed the other day and realized, the only cd I trully really dig is the Second Stage Turbine Blade. So that's the only album by them I can recommend.

OrbDragon 02-01-2006 05:45 AM

The Delgados are one of my favorite bands. Everyone thinks I'm overrating this band almost criminally, and they're probably right. But their music is the epitome of what the OrbDragons of the world feast on. Artsy, over the top and cute melody-caressing female vocals (at least for one half).

Even if you Hate (no pun intended?) their other material, you got to hand it that "Keep On Breathing" is one of the more interestingly composed pop songs. It's so genius.

Besides The Delgados, I've been listening to Dresden Dolls and The Arcade Fire alot. "In The Backseat" is one of the better Arcade Fore songs, it's sad in a happy sort of way (or the other way around).

The Dresden Dolls are one of the best bands of this decade in my opinion...if anyone can tell me more bands that use imagery that's different and unique to them, tell me right away.

Too bad :(

I Was A Kaleidoscope 02-01-2006 05:56 AM

Hmm, the only Coheed CD I truly really dig is Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV. So that's both of the ones that aren't the one that is on sale. :p

OrbDragon 02-01-2006 05:57 AM

I think Coheed is crap :evil:

...

Maybe I shouldn't have said that, but it felt quite good.

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Too bad :([/QUOTE]

You could always check out Toby Driver's solo album because that's what I'm digging at the moment. Yay, for more ambience.

Doctor D. 02-01-2006 07:10 AM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]Good. How you finding it?[/QUOTE]

I'm loving it. I listendto it twice yesterday and once the day before. It's a stunningly encaptavating album.

Zappa 02-01-2006 11:50 AM

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]The Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us

I dunno how to exactly describe The Cramps. Greasy, bluesy, rockabilly garage punk.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that album is amazing.

Jawaharal 02-01-2006 03:25 PM

godheadSilo has to be the most boring band ever.

You mean like anything Cedric Bixler does? Or does it have to be imagery that other people can acutally understand?

Little Man being Erased 02-01-2006 04:36 PM

Really starting to get into Eels - [I]Electro-Shock Blues[/I].

NineBitFable 02-01-2006 04:42 PM

Beck- Odelay!
Beatles- Abbey Road

Anyone know if the new Cave-in is any good?

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]You could always check out Toby Driver's solo album because that's what I'm digging at the moment. Yay, for more ambience.[/QUOTE]

Not something I can listen to often... But when I'm in the Toby Driver's solo album sort of mood, Toby Driver's solo album hits the freakin' spottttttt.

I've been diggin':

random Elliott Smith songs
some good ol' post-y metal by Minsk and 5ive
Deltron 3030 and/or random Del songs
Peter Griffin's cover of Rock Lobster
various Katamari Damacy songs

yay

Jawaharal 02-01-2006 04:51 PM

Quincy Jones is so darn good. Soul Bossa Nova is the best mojo song ever.

Mattfanatic 02-01-2006 05:24 PM

uh right now

a mix of all the actually good elliott smith demos and rare tracks

angel in the snow

Zappa 02-01-2006 05:30 PM

[QUOTE=cheeto-t]Quincy Jones is so darn good. Soul Bossa Nova is the best mojo song ever.[/QUOTE]

We play that in my high school jazz band and it's embarassing.

asdf 02-01-2006 05:31 PM

Today has been a day of:

Cheer Accident - The Why Album
DJ Dangermouse - The Grey Album

Jawaharal 02-01-2006 05:32 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]We play that in my high school jazz band and it's embarassing.[/QUOTE]

YDload 02-01-2006 05:45 PM

[QUOTE=cheeto-t]Quincy Jones is so darn good. Soul Bossa Nova is the best mojo song ever.[/QUOTE]

He also wrote what is arguably the greatest theme song in all of television: Sanford and Son. I can put that on my iPod and just walk around all day with it on repeat and feel great :):(

sketchyjoe 02-01-2006 07:01 PM

Jimi Hendrix - In The West

Happymeal 02-01-2006 07:45 PM

I'm craving for some more Masada after listening to [I]Vol. 1: Alef[/I] again. Arr.

Dog 02-01-2006 07:50 PM

Eagles Of Death Metal - [I]Death By Sexy[/I]
Nujabes - [I]Metaphorical Music[/I]
The Jesus Lizard - [I]Liar[/I]

[I]Death By Sexy[/I] is a lot of fun. I'm not sure if I like it as much as [I]Peace Love Death Metal[/I] yet.

Tangy zizzle 02-01-2006 08:02 PM

Deerhoof
Cat Power
Bruce Springsteen - [I]Nebraska[/I]. Such a good album this.

ATM 02-01-2006 08:21 PM

Death By Sexy is out?

Dog 02-01-2006 08:26 PM

No. shhhhhhhhh

Little Man being Erased 02-01-2006 08:27 PM

Seems to me, Dog has a leak.


EDIT: Oh wait, I mean, I didn't say nothin'.
