The Slackers have made some of the most faithful ska/rocksteady since
1970.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda;13302820]Dino Jr. - Where You Been[/QUOTE]Where it counts, you usually dig the same albums as me. :cool:

People seem to have mixed oppinon about that album, but I think it's one of the best Dino J records.

Sonic Youth - Rather Ripped
Yo La Tengo - I Am Not Afraid Of You and I Will Beat Your ***
Slick Rick - Behind Bars

[I]Marquee Moon[/I]

"Elevation" is the only track that I don't care for. It's still good but sub-par to the rest of the songs.

YDload 09-21-2006 07:53 PM

Yes, that's probably true. There isn't a bad song on the album, but if I had to pick one that's just slightly below all others, it would be "Elevation"

Its good, and I like it more than anything else after Bug. But the first 3 albums kill it. Not The Same is one of my favorite Dino Jr songs though.

I'm listening to The Clash just now, because of that dreadful thread about it in punk.

Is their first album any good? I've never bothered checking it out.

Bukowski 09-21-2006 08:12 PM

It's a bit disjointed and badly recorded, but yeah I like it quite a bit. Not as good as the other two though,

"Repulsion" is seriously one of their best songs, but i dont know about the other album i just LOVE that song.

np: the art teacher

eDiT:to plath

YDload 09-21-2006 10:33 PM

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars;13305669]Nope, it has an awesome chorus. The two worst songs are "Guiding Light" and "Friction".[/QUOTE]

those songs rule; "Friction" is the second most badass song next to "venus" and "Guiding Light" has an awesome outro riff/solo thing.

Eliminator 09-21-2006 10:36 PM

Well we all know that the title track is the best so why bother discussing the rest?

The Great Decay 09-21-2006 10:36 PM

I listened to The Unicorns while I was walking around town today.

Kayetan 09-21-2006 11:12 PM

The Animal Collective is really good.

Eliminator 09-21-2006 11:50 PM

I was listening to [i]Feels[/i] the other day and remembered that.

Zappa 09-22-2006 12:14 AM

My friend sent me [I]Feels[/I] today. She lives downstairs.

Daniel! 09-22-2006 12:20 AM

The Jayhawks - [I]Hollywood Town Hall[/I]

This is a damn fine album. The first song is fantastic, as is every other song.

Daniel! 09-22-2006 12:27 AM

It's a lot like Uncle Tupelo, but with a little more of a Tom Petty/Neil Young thing going on. You would most likely dig it. I sure am.

[QUOTE=YDload;13300818]I heard about The Cardiacs before but the only song of theirs I heard was "Angleworm Angel" and it's really unnerving so I didn't really listen for more stuff.[/QUOTE]

Just thought to ask, where did you hear it?

Little Man being Erased 09-22-2006 08:15 AM

Danger Doom - [i]The Mouse and the Mask[/i]

Why did I waste my time trying to decide whether this would be good or not? It's fantastic!

Annie - [i]Anniemal[/i]

Great stuff. But I still think "Chewing Gum" is the best track.

ATM 09-22-2006 08:37 AM

Deerhoof - Milk Man

This is awesome.

the something awful forums. there's this guy who considers them his favorite band, and he likes a lot of weird stuff (like Dog Fashion Disco even) and i thought i would give it a try

he also likes Nomeansno and that's probably the best :cool:

Moss Icon

Bartender 09-22-2006 04:49 PM

^I listened to [i]Spiderland[/i] for the first time earlier today. My first thought was that it kind of reminded me of Moss Icon without the angry bits.
