Oh God the harp in "Crepuscle"!

Don't mind me, I'm just going through [i]Romances[/i] a second time. This is definitely in the running for album of the year for me. Maybe 2nd or 3rd place, but just by a tidbit.

Tangy zizzle 10-30-2004 06:33 PM

I dug out [I]Yank Crime[/I] this morning. Do you guys realise the enormity of this bands (drive like jehu) greatness?

br3ad_man 10-30-2004 08:05 PM

I finally got around to getting not one, but two Weezer albums yesterday, Blue and Pinkerton. So I've been digging that. Plus a couple of cds from the Conservatiorium Jazz Orchestra. They're quite cool.

Tapeworm 10-30-2004 08:07 PM

I borrowed both Nelly Furtado albums from my friend yesterday. I have been meaning to buy both for years (well the new one only since it has been out), and they are both brilliant albums.

Happymeal 10-30-2004 08:22 PM

I'm soooo loving [I]Crimes[/I] right now, and I'll review it one of these days. Man, that's gonna be a tough one..

NineBitFable 10-30-2004 08:31 PM

Fall of Troy, Symphony X, Rush and Porcupine... I love Porcupine Tree, and probably am going to pick up their album 'Signify' pretty soon, right now I only have 1 song from them I got from Progarchives.com, but they are just sooo good

[QUOTE=NineBitFable]Fall of Troy[/QUOTE]

:eek:

I love you.

Iris 10-30-2004 08:41 PM

I've only heard Rockstar Nailbomb, and I just got this symphony goin' by the Fall Of Troy, but both were excellent.

NineBitFable 10-30-2004 08:44 PM

Ohhh... hear Ghost Ship part 4 on Purevolume. Its insane.

Happymeal 10-30-2004 08:50 PM

I got their self-titled, reviewed it too. :-* I haven't heard the demo yet though(except for Ghostship Part 4, which is awesome). I'm really surprised a lot of people haven't heard them yet.

*cough*Tangy*cough*

Iris 10-30-2004 08:53 PM

I've known about this band for a while, and I've listened to all of the songs on their purevolume page, but I forgot to include Ghostship Part 4.

Tomahawk 10-31-2004 04:37 AM

I'm really digging Prince right now. Purple Rain yo.

Prince is the man.

The Ashtray Girl 10-31-2004 04:40 AM

I'm digging Green Day in a major way. The new album is a nifty bit of songwriting if you ask me.

Tangy zizzle 10-31-2004 04:47 AM

[I]Purple Rain[/I] is one of the greatest songs ever recorded. Get it in ya', jus' get it iiinnn ya.

Tangy zizzle 10-31-2004 04:57 AM

Just listened to the entire Hot Snakes discography while doing a tourism assignment. How cool are these guys?

Can anyone say "this much Tangy!" ?

I can't download those tracks. Do you have to sign up or summin'?

Ornery Cephalopod 10-31-2004 06:06 AM

I finally got around to re-downloading Lumen's album [i]The Man Felt an Iron Hand Grab Him by the Hair, at the Nape. Not One Hand, a Hundred Hands Seized Him, Each by the Hair, and Tore Him Head to Foot, the Way You Tear Up a Sheet of Paper, into Hundreds of Little Pieces[/i] earlier. Good stuff, post-rock centered on acoustic geetar.

Ben Harpers - Live From Mars

I don't like all the songs as much...but the standout songs are REALLY standout.


I'm also digging:


Bob Log III
The Cramps
Nick cave & The Bad Seeds\
Elbow
Sarah Blasko
RX Bandits
Dead Moon (this is something you might like Tangy)

Tapeworm 10-31-2004 07:28 AM

I heard a Dead Moon song and it was horrible, it sounded like it was some kids messing around. (maybe it was).

Sarah Blasko!!! Yeahhhh.

Happymeal 10-31-2004 07:30 AM

[QUOTE=Tangy Zizzle]I can't download those tracks. Do you have to sign up or summin'?[/QUOTE]

Just click on "Downloadable Songs" on that page. You should be able to get all 3 there.


Hm, my friend said Lost In Translation's OST good, so I'm checking that out. So far I'm liking Too Young by Phoenix.

Tapeworm 10-31-2004 08:14 AM

That soundtrack is awesome.

Luxor 10-31-2004 12:00 PM

I'm listening to "The Lonesome Crowded West" right now, so good.

Iris 10-31-2004 02:41 PM

Im really really digging the new Elliott Smith Cd, :thumb:

I'm obsessed.

Iris 10-31-2004 02:47 PM

Me too, I love Elliott Smith. I tried to find an avatar of him but everything I find is way to big :upset:

crazyGUITARnDRUMgal 10-31-2004 03:09 PM

PJ Harvey. ive always had her cd's i just got back into the flow of listening to them again recently.

Luxor 10-31-2004 03:29 PM

[QUOTE=Iris]Me too, I love Elliott Smith. I tried to find an avatar of him but everything I find is way to big :upset:[/QUOTE]
Then resize it. You don't actually think my avatar was that small to begin with do you?

Iris 10-31-2004 04:38 PM

How did you get it that small without it going all blurry and such?

Luxor 10-31-2004 05:19 PM

I downloaded "Mihov Image Resizer". I dunno, I searched "res-sizing images" on goodle and it came up.

I've been meaning to check them out further, I saw them live at a bar like 2( more?) years ago, they were good. I'll give them another listen.
