[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]I'm digging Minus the Bear.

Such a great end of the summer band.

It makes me sad though.[/QUOTE]

yeah the only way i can listen to them in winter is if i put "Hooray" on repeat :-/

also good for end of the season: "Celebrated Summer" :cool:

Anxious 08-25-2006 05:48 PM

This cool Minutemen bootleg I found in a torrent site. It's the latest performance of them I've ever heard (10-24-85). Its in .flac which I have regarded as a useless format. It takes up waaaay more space than an MP3, and theres almost no noticible difference.

Andrew Hill - [I]Black Fire[/I]

I was listening to it passively awhile ago so I don't really know if I like it or not.

Tangy zizzle 08-25-2006 10:21 PM

Hot Snakes - [I]Thunder Down Under[/I]

It's pretty cool in itself, but coupled with the nostalgia of seein' them play [I]these very songs[/I] last year - makes it superb.

Also been diggin' on The Buzzcocks and the Black Lips.

asdf 08-25-2006 11:18 PM

Tuxedomoon - Half Mute
Tuxedomoon - Desire
XTC - English Settlement

It went from 1980 to 1983, which was pretty neat. English Settlement brings back my childhood.

Glitterati 08-25-2006 11:59 PM

Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures

aka music to slash your wrists to

Fugazi - [I]13 Songs[/I]
Faraquet - [I]The View From This Tower[/I]

obese_breasts 08-26-2006 02:35 AM

Faraquet is amazing. I heard them a month or so ago in a local coffee shop and got hooked.

Riziger 08-26-2006 05:08 AM

Been digging Funeral For A friend lately.

Recomended songs: Bend Your Arms tO look like wings, juneau, bullet theory, your revolution is a joke.

Thanks, pretty good to be back. Nice avatar.

[QUOTE=obese_breasts]Faraquet is amazing. I heard them a month or so ago in a local coffee shop and got hooked.[/QUOTE]
They're awesome. Jazz+Post-Hardcore.

Interstate 08-26-2006 11:05 AM

Notorious B.I.G - [I]Ready To Die[/I]

Definitely in my top 5 hip hop albums. I've played the sh[I]i[/I]t out of this and it still blows my mind.

Zebra 08-26-2006 11:18 AM

Lightning Bolt - [I]Wonderful Rainbow[/I]

I'm listening to this straight through for my first time. It's really crazy stuff and good to listen to if I want to get myself pumped up.

Luxor 08-26-2006 11:27 AM

[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]They're awesome. Jazz+Post-Hardcore.[/QUOTE]
I honestly don't hear any hardcore in this band, but people keep saying that. I have "The View From This Tower", do I have the wrong album or something?

bridge in Dracula Mountain is probably the catchiest thing ever written.

I hear Post-Hardcore in there for sure

JonM 08-26-2006 12:37 PM

I probably can't be said to be "digging" this record yet, but I just got [i]Galactic Supermarket[/i] by The Cosmic Jokers, and it's the craziest Krautrock I've heard yet.

Anxious 08-26-2006 01:13 PM

[QUOTE=obese_breasts]Faraquet is amazing. I heard them a month or so ago in a local coffee shop and got hooked.[/QUOTE]

I'm seriously addicted to this album. "Cut Self Not" is probably one of my favourite album-openers.

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 03:50 PM

[QUOTE=Luxor]I honestly don't hear any hardcore in this band, but people keep saying that. I have "The View From This Tower", do I have the wrong album or something?[/QUOTE]

It's impossible to not enjoy that record.

Luxor 08-26-2006 04:32 PM

I found it to be really boring.

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 04:33 PM

That baffles my mind. The guitar work is phenomenal.

Luxor 08-26-2006 04:35 PM

Sounds similar to Hot Cross. I'm sure you already listen to them, but if you don't...

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 04:38 PM

I have listened to Hot Cross, but not recently. I do recall Cryonics being a decent album, though.

Luxor 08-26-2006 04:39 PM

Fair Trades And Farewells > Cryonics > A New Set Of Lungs

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 04:40 PM

I guess I'll have to pick up [I]Fair Trades[/I].. then.

Matt? 08-26-2006 04:41 PM

fair trades and farewells is more impressive but i like the "atmosphere" of cryonics more.

also the view from this tower is decent, but the split with akarso rules.

br3ad_man 08-26-2006 05:46 PM

I went to a record store half an hour away yesterday and got Saetia's [i]A Retrospective[/i] and Bruce Springsteen's [i]Born to Run[/i] (perfect condition vinyl). $18 for both.

Except I tried to buy some tickets but I didn't have cash and they were closing so I didn't have time to get any cash out. Gheeeey.

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 05:54 PM

[I]A Retrospective[/I] is a d[I]a[/I]mn good album, it got me into emo.

Bukowski 08-26-2006 05:57 PM

I'm on a No Wave kick. Liquid Liquid are one groovy band.

br3ad_man 08-26-2006 06:02 PM

[quote=The Great Decay][I]A Retrospective[/I] is a d[I]a[/I]mn good album, it got me into emo.[/quote]

It's fantastic. Having the booklet is awesome too, there's little notes from all of the band members and there's lyrics. I quite like the lyrics.

The Great Decay 08-26-2006 06:07 PM

Yeah, their lyrics are one of the things that initially got me into the band. You need to check out Raein, if you haven't. I just finished listening to Il N’y [I]A Pas De Orchestre[/I], and it was brilliant.

masada 08-26-2006 06:08 PM

Before that album wasn't that great to me. For some reason it seems a lot better at the moment. I've never seen it in stores, though. Just one the EP.
