i just got swagger by flogging molly. and it's better than drunken lullibies. i like "the likes of you" or something, i forgot what it's called

lately I've been digging:

Cave In - Until Your Heart Stops
The Verve - A Northern Soul
Postman Syndrome - Terraforming (AWESOME HARDCORE PROG BAND! CHECK THEM OUT!)
Chevelle - Point # 1
Hendrix - Are You Experienced and Axis:Bold As Love (I only checked him out a little while ago...I'm kicking myself in the *** for not doing it earlier)

DeerHoof-"Apple O" and "Milk Man"

and

Iron & Wine

Two bands I've been diggin lately (not sure why)
Weezer-I just got tthe new blue album expanded for easter. it is sweet. The B-sides are excellent, especially Jamie, and the live versions of many of the songs on it. It rocks
Flaming Lips-I've just recently gotten into the flaming lips. I just purchased In A Priest Driven Ambulance. Some songs to check out are Shine on Sweet Jesus (it's creepy but good) and Five Stop Mother Superior Rain.

Also, a new band that I just recently found out about are The Constantines. Their album is titled [I]Shine a Light[/I] and its on Sub-Pop records. They are excellent. You should check out the song National Hum.

I won a bid on Washing Machine by Sonic Youth. Is it a good album?

I love The Flaming Lips...I own Transmissions and Yoshimi for a few months now...and I heard alot of great things about the Soft Bulletin...I'll get that one as soon as I see it.


Oh yeah folks HERE is ANOTHER recommendation...if you like Muse, Radiohead and Jeff Buckley: check out MOODSWING.

Johnny Cash - [I]American III: Solitary Man[/I] has been declared Tangy Zizzle's Official [B]Album of The Week[/B]

I've been really digging Modest Mouse and The Cure recently. I'm downloading quick and easy like a whore right now.

[QUOTE=iHATEgc]Cap'n Jazz + American Football = more spooge[/QUOTE]

Can't argue with that.

I'm into B.R.M.C again, i go through phases of who i like and i'm back to them, excellent band. If you haven't heard much by them check out:

Spread Your Love
Stop
Whatever Happened To My Rock And Roll
Love Burns
We're All In Love

I've been listening to Sonic Youth, Antiskeptic and Radiohead.

Nick Drake has been my most recent find. He was an incredible artist. His last album [I]Pink Moon[/I] is one of the most raw and emotive albums I've ever come across.

Lots of Tool and Zakk Wylde / Black Label Society lately :thumb:

Currently into the Meat Puppets. I'd only heard the Nirvana covers before this week. They're a great band.

The killers.

I've only heard 2 songs from these guys - somebody told me, and mr brightside - but from what i've heard i'm way impressed.

Talking Heads - [I]More Songs About Buildings & Food[/I] has been declared Tangy Zizzle's Official [B]Album of The Week[/B]

I just downloaded a heap of Flaming Lips songs and so far "In The Morning Of Magicians" is my favourite. Good stuff.

I've been listening to a lot of

Metric
Death Cab For Cutie
Spoon
The Postal Service

Everyone check those bands out if you haven't already.:thumb:

Song suggestions?

[U]Death Cab suggestions:[/U]

[I]Information Travels Faster
Photobooth
I Was a Kaleidospcope
Employment Pages
Styrofoam Plates (My fave)
Coney Island
Face That Launched 1000 Ships[/I]

Death Cab is pretty decent...I own Transatlanticism...what stopped me from listening to it over the years that the singers voice annoys me from time to time...but the music is pretty good. It's as close as emo as it gets in my cd collection.

death cab for cutie
pretty girls makes graves
Dead Poetic
Taking Back Sunday
Incubus
Blood Brothers
Tool especially Aenima
Dizzy Rascal
Cursive
The Streets and last but not least
Rancid

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]Song suggestions?[/QUOTE]

[u]Metric[/u]

[i]Combat Baby
Succexy
Raw Sugar[/i]

[u]Spoon[/u]

[i]The Way We Get By
Jonathon Fisk[/i]

[u]The Postal Service[/u]

[i]Such Great Heights
Nothing Better
Clark Gable[/i]

Two albums stand out for me:


The Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin (some of the best music I've ever heard)
Damien Rice - O (raw emotion)

Also in rotation

Dead Can Dance - Into The Labyrinth (majestic)
The Mars Volta - De-Loused In The Comatorium (only until now I'm starting to recognize it's amazingness)
Lovage - Music To Make Love To Your Old Lady By (just a fun cd)
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F#A# (Infinity) (challenging, breathtaking listening experience)
Sarah MachLachlan - Surfacing (good adult pop)

I just picked up [I]The Pixies - Surfer Rosa[/I] and [I]Sonic Youth - Sister[/I] a few days ago.

Good stuff.

Soli i Sombra - [url]www.soliisombra.com[/url] their EP is for download there. really great indie-prog
Junior Senior - Great super catchy disco stealers. Download chicks and dicks, very funny song
The Postal Service - Fun to listen to just don't over do it like I did.
A Perfect Cricle - Probably on here athousand times but still and always great

rjd2 - started digging him a while back, but now he's got a new album out for me to dig

moving units - i guess the "dancepunk" thing still hasn't been overdone yet. not much different than any of the other bands like them, but these guys songs are just catchier and more uptempo than the other bands in their genre. addictive.

les savy fav - downloaded a song by them, was impressed, downloaded a bunch more, now their album's on the way. not much to say about them except that they're just a good band.

my bloody valentine - i had heard their stuff before, but i never thought it was as amazing as everyone else seemed too (kinda like i was when first hearing the mars volta.) took me a while, but now "loveless" is indeed blowing me away. good timing too, cause kevin shields is starting to make music again.

Well ive been listenin to my usual Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Clash , Who etc but recentley ive taken a real likeing to the Rolling Stones

Album ive been listenin to: 40 licks - Rolling Stones

Suggested listening -

Street Fighting man
Gimme Shelter

Ive also been getting really into a band called the Screaming trees recentley but they dont have many albums available in the shops these days - so im just downloading at the moment. Make my Mind is a great song by them!

What Mark said :thumb:

I've been diggin Death Cab For Cutie- you can play these songs with chords

I've never been able to get into My Bloody Valentine...I never thought their music were as strong compared to most other music I own with feminine songwriting. Maybe it's just me though.

I've been getting into a band called The Cranes these days...they are great. They sound sorta like a combination of New Order, Dead Can Dance and Throbbing Gristle...really good stuff.

I'm also liking Dead Moon...another band I recommend.

I'm with you, OrbDragon. I never really got it either. Maybe it's because I never heard it in the proper format (CD) in the proper mood (drugs). Maybe someday.

The Soft Bulletin by the Flamings Lips. It took me 8 months, folks, but I finally love it!
New Modest Mouse
Franz Ferdinand
Creedence Clearwater Revival. I bought their best-of for a history report, but their songs just rock.
Bad Religion

Bands/Albums/Songs I've been into lately...
French Kicks - "One Time Bells": (Close To Modern, When You Heard You, Down Now)
Hot Hot Heat - "Make Up The Breakdown": (No Not Now, Get In or Get Out, Oh Goddammit, This Town, Talk to Me, Dance with Me, In Cairo... in other words, almost all of it.)
Franz Ferdinand - "Franz Ferdinand": (Jaqueline, Tell Her Tonight, Take Me Out, The Dark of the Matinee, Michael, 40")

What I'm looking to get soon...
The Libertines - "Up The Bracket" ... I know it's been out for a while, but for some reason I keep forgetting to go out and get it. It could be my lack of money/job.
Tangiers - "Hot New Spirits" (I think thats what its called)
The Unicorns

I've been listening to Houses of the Holy (album, not song) by Zep on repeat for like 5 days.

Also R.E.M. Best of '88-'03.

[QUOTE=fakeplasticpt]I've been listening to Houses of the Holy (album, not song) by Zep on repeat for like 5 days.

That is such a great album, one of their best too. Dyer Maker is the best song on that album IMO.

[QUOTE=bruise_pristine]That is such a great album, one of their best too. Dyer Maker is the best song on that album IMO.[/QUOTE]

I prefer The Rain Song.

I consider this their best album for sure, but whenever I listen to Dancing Days I just think about how much better STP did it.

[QUOTE=OrbDragon]I've never been able to get into My Bloody Valentine...[/QUOTE]

me either, for the longest time. but recently, while my winamp playlist was randomly going through songs, a couple of their songs came on and i just really liked them. i don't know how or why, but they just really appealed to me. modest mouse was the same way...

go figure. i guess if you're in the right mindset, some music just gets to you sometimes (and no i wasn't on drugs at the time ok compiler.)

although i'm sure that would help.
