Prince - 3121

His best record in an age.

Scrawl - Velvet Hammer

Fast shooting up my list of the best albums ever. It gets better every time I hear it.

I didn't like this before but wow it's really good.[/QUOTE]
Is that that band that does that song "All the Young Children on Crack" or whatever it's called? Because wow that song is horrible.

It's on their reunion album that was just released a couple of weeks ago, I think. From what I've heard it's not good, but they had a few really solid albums throughout the 80's. Check out the one Nacho mentioned for their best.

1 Islands 38
2 Cursive 36
3 Mitch Hedberg 28
4 Mission of Burma 27
5 Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds 23
6 Broken Social Scene 21
7 Calexico 20
8 Tom Waits 16
9 MANTITS 14
10 Murder By Death 12

Just some weird dude with an acoustic guitar.

I reccommend:
"We're Just a Bunch of Multi-pronged Weird-*** Things"
"Let Me ****ing Die"
"Just be Thankful you're not Dead"

Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material

Awesome Irish punk raaaaaawk album released in 1979. Think the speed and fury of bands like The Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys and Black Flag with the intelligence of The Clash and The Buzzcocks. A must have for any punk fan.

Ghostface Killah - [i]Fishscale[/i]
Seriously. Da[size=2]mn[/size], I'm still loving it. Gets better each time I listen to it through. It makes me really anxious to hear the Ghostface + MF Doom record later this year.

The video for that song led me to believe they were a relatively new band. They look fairly young. They don't look old enough to have been making music in the 80s anyway. They look more like they were born in the 80s.

Goodshirt - [I]Fiji Baby[/I]

I'd forgotten how much I love this s[I]h[/I]it. It's like a pill popping Pixies, mixed with some lovely acousitc numbers and drenched in fuzzy, weird-pop goodness.

Mmmmm. I love what I've heard of those guys. Fun band.

I'm listening to some Velvet Underground now. It's not that great really.

^woah, he speaks truth for once.

Most are probably (relative) young'uns. The band doesn't really have much of a consistent lineup. And yeah, "All the Young Children On Crack" is horrible. But some of the stuff I've heard from the rest of their album is more in tune to what they do, clumsy indie pop stuff.

I haven't read the Pitchfork review on [I]Fishscale[/I] but if it's positive, then they've got it right. It's much better than [I]Pretty Tony[/I], which really wasn't even all that good in the first place except for like three songs. I'm loving the guest spots for dead people on this album, too.

Is 'Pac on it?

No, but Biggie is.

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]^woah, he speaks truth for once.[/QUOTE]

well i know Zappa doesnt like em that much, but he's pretty hard on a lot of A/I favorites so that doesn't really mean much. but then i listen to them and I don't really understand all the fuss. this sounds like bob dylan, but it's not Bob Dylan to me.

if you get my drift

Yeah minutemen, blah blah... thats a cool song though.

Weird War - Illuminated by the Light.

Picked this up at their show last week, it's fun. it's no Make Up or NoU, but it's still pretty cool. Plus the artwork is bitxhin'.

Parkway Drive

After a wierd day, I'm finding them pretty relaxing.

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]VU's kind of boring, except for "Heroin", [I]White Light/White Heat[/I], and the self-titled album. Oh, and [I]Loaded[/I]. So basically everything is good.[/QUOTE]

Ok I will admit to liking White Light/White Heat, if only for cultures sake. But it's still pretty boring stuff.

Joy Division - Substance (The first Joy Division stuff I've heard apart from Love Will Tear Us Apart. Good.)
Bauhaus - In The Flat Field
Belle & Sebastian - Tigermilk

Built to Spill

yip yip

R.E.M. - Murmur

Imogen Heap - [I]Speak For Yourself[/I] - the intro to "Loose Ends" has been stuck in my head all day.

I wish my Ipod would stop crashing :upset:

Nice. At first I was kind of let down with their mellowing out and all, but it's still a groovy and fairly consistent album.

MF Doom - [I]Mm.. Food[/I]

It has great beats.. and it makes me hungry.

Frank Sinatra - [I]Songs For Swingin' Lovers[/I]

Can't beat a bit of Ol' Blue Eyes.

Well, that explains it.

I dug Beck - [I]Guero[/I] yesterday, and I think it's a better album than a lot of people gave it credit for.

I'm seeing The Drones tonight, so today I shall be digging them amongst some other stuff.

Mr. Bungle
Jimmy Chamberlin Complex
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
