Portishead - Dummy

I haven't heard this album since sophomore year, when my CD was stolen from me at school. I finally downloaded it again, and I know I'm going to fall in love with it all over again.

Lake. They're a band which doesn't suck.

I was just sent Edan's [I]Beauty and the Beat[/I], and it's pretty good. Kind of like a modernized De La Soul? You guys probably all listen to him already.

He does some pretty neat stuff. I like it too.

Currently listening to Television Personalities' [I]Privilege[/I]. I was watching a documentary on the band the other day. Dan Treacy's arms are awful looking things. Don't do drugs kids.

Daft Punk - Discovery

totally forgot how awesome this is.

[size=7]
STARLIGHT MINTS[/size]

got a thread about it too check it out

Oh man, I forgot about that song!

[QUOTE=Eliminator]What?

I was joking, jackalope. :([/QUOTE]

I take my no wave seriously bub.

Record review day:

Emily Haines - [I]Knives Don't Have Your Back[/I] (pretty awesome)
Black Keys - [I]Magic Potion[/I] (a step down from their last)
M. Ward - [I]Post-War[/I] (lovely)
The Diminisher - [I]Imaginary Volcano[/I] (decent enough)
REM - [I]Best of the IRS Years[/I] (knew every song; the bonus disc is pretty interesting)

I 'spect I got 2 or 3 more in me tonight.

sh[size=2]it[/size]. 9 Albums arrived for me today. Lots of good new releases come out tomorrow.

Joni Mitchell - [I]Dreamland[/I]

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]Aaliyah - "Are You That Somebody?"

I remember this song, it's so good. It would be two times better without the weird baby noise every five seconds.[/QUOTE]

Dude. **** you seriously.

that sound owns so much.

hey you know what song i like?

blackstreet - no diggity

Kool Keith - Analog Brothers Pimp to Eat

[QUOTE=perriwinkle]blackstreet - no diggity[/QUOTE]Who the hel[SIZE="2"]l[/SIZE] doesn't like that song?!

Porcupine Tree - Deadwing
PT - In Absentia
RHCP - By The Way

I just got BTW so i am slowly falling in love with it altho most of the songs i already know.

Porcupine tree is just simply put - awesome.

The Primitives-[I] Lovely[/I]
Gigolo Aunts-[I] Flippin' Out[/I]

I watched [I]Dumb and Dumber[/I] a few nights ago, and decided to look at some artists from the soundtrack.

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

I basically listened to it all day at school, even though it starts to lose it's appeal once you figure out all the songs.

what do you mean figure out?

How the songs are structured, rhythms, etc.

Makes it a little less exciting. I guess that means I'll just listen to [i]Hypermagic Mountain[/i] more now.

[QUOTE=perriwinkle]hey you know what song i like?

[/QUOTE]

I had the CD single of that one.

The Afghan Whigs - [I]Gentlemen[/I]
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - [I]The Good Son[/I]

Comets on Fire - [i]Avatar[/i]

So good. It was a little startling at first how much they cleaned up their sound, but it works and keeps things fresh.

R.E.M. - [I]Automatic For the People[/I]

This is my favorite 90's R.E.M. album. Every track is awesome, even the short instrumental.

Okay, so whenever I said anything bad about [I]The Ascension[/I] by Glenn Branca, I was trippin'.

I'm pretty sure this is better than symphony number one.

In other news, Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothin' to f[size=2]u[/size]ck wit'.

Yo La Tengo - [I]I am not blah blah blah long pretentious title[/I]

This is pretty awesome

The trombone on "black flowers" owns

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]*long, completely awesome title ([I]I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your A[size=2]s[/size]s[/I])

it's their second-best album. Great stuff. I saw them play half of it live before I had heard the album, and I wish it had been the other way around so I could have appreciated the songs more.[/QUOTE]

Probably third or fourth for me, but very awesome either way. Impressive versatility.

I was going to buy a proper copy today, but ended up finding some neat stuff in the used section. Got John Cale's [I]Island Years[/I] compilation for $8 as well as my first Thelonius Monk album, [I]Monk's Blues[/I] for $4. Also picked up TVotR because it was only $8, too. Total cost was $0, because I hocked off some free promos that were gathering dust in the quarantine pile on my desk. I'll pick up the Yo La Tengo and Lupe Fiasco next week. Hooray!

Upload?

mmhm the Scruffs are good.


been listening to The Real Kids' s/t all day. i need to get more of their stuff.

The Drones - [I]Gala Mill[/I]
Jimi Hendrix - [I]Electric Ladyland[/I]

Hey Tangy, sup?

What's [I]Gala Mill[/I] like? Worth me checking out?

Thomas and the Evil Computer

[url]http://www.evilcomputer.ca/TATEC-TIT.mp3[/url]

Hey man, hows things?

[I]Gala Mill[/I] is pretty damm cool. It's the record which cements the "Drones-sound". It's really sparse and a lot quieter than anything else they've done, but it has some of the best imagery I've ever, ever heard. It's brutal as f[I]u[/I]ck, check it out.

i think sometimes it gives music relisten value when its complex enough that it takes many listens to understand what it is youre hearing. like if i finally figure out what time signature a certain song is then its really cool to me to count it out while im listening to it

Hey Tangy you will appreciate this, I'm going to a Drones show.

I don't appreciate that at all. Rub it in my face, smart[I]a[/I]ss.

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]I don't appreciate that at all. Rub it in my face, smart[I]a[/I]ss.[/QUOTE]
listen to the Thomas and the Evil Computer song
