Bear vs. Shark.


Great band.

The Unicorns.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]Wolfmother - [I]Wolfmother[/I]
Shall be seeing them tomorrow at Sasquatch so I'm preparing. So pumped.[/QUOTE]

That band is terrible. Now you probably know by now that I don't pay much attention to lyrics, so they have to be really good or really bad to get me to notice them. The ones in "Mother" are definitely the latter. And the music is just recyclec Sabbath riffs without the attitude or ingenuity that made them so great in the first place.

Prefuse 73 - [i]Read the Books[/i] EP
The Decemberists - [i]The Tain[/i] EP

Massive Attack - Mezzanine
This album is just so ****ing cool. Man.
I was walking home in the dark tonight listening to it and it was creepy as **** but I loved it.
I really need to check out their other stuff (I'll get Blue Lines or whatever soon)

They aren't anything new or ground breaking thats for sure but I wouldn't call them terrible. They are just fun which is why I like and listen to them.

XTC - [I]Black Sea[/I] Fantastic. That about sums it up.

Picked up these two today:

Gnarls Barkley - [I]St. Elsewhere[/I]

On first listen it certainly lives up to praise that's been given to it around here and elsewhere. Really cool sh[size=2]it[/size].

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

'nuff said.

it's an OK Computer day!

The Reverend Al Green.

Stereolab - [i]Emperor Tomato Ketchup[/i] This makes me feel happy.
Girl Talk - [i]Night Ripper[/i] Mash up masterrrr.
Sufjan Stevens - [i]A Sun Came[/i] more synthbased. sounds nothing like Illinois
Gang Gang Dance - [i]God's Money[/i] <3 egypto-dance music. really good.

Okkervil River - [I]Down The River of Golden Dreams[/I]

I really like this record.

Flipper
Sun City Girls
Husker Du

Beck - [I]Mutations[/I]

This kicks the **** out of [i]Sea Change[/i].

EDIT: that it does.

Jools Holland has a good-looking lineup this week. David Gilmour, Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Crosby and Nash, the Streets.. Has just started though, so I suppose it could all turn out badly. I turned on halfway through a Gilmour track, which sounded great; might have to think about getting [i]On An Island[/i] after all.

Last week's was good, too.

There's at least one other guy there, but he's Brazilian and I have no idea how to spell his name.

David Gilmour? :eek:
Paul Simon? :eek:
Elvis Costello? :eek:

habbadahabbadahabbada

Anyhow

Television - [I]Marquee Moon[/I]
Patti Smith - [I]Easter[/I]

Artsy-punk day. Might follow that up with some Coltrane.

Story of the Year - Page Avenue

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]^ hey there's a post I like

Nonsense, Flipper are great.

I'm digging a band called Alice Donut. Kinda similar to some Butthole Surfers stuff, or as similar as is possible to that crazy band.

The Velvet Teen - [I]Out Of The Fierce Parade[/I] sort of. Some songs are kinda meh. Some songs are great though.

Over the past few days:

Mudhoney
Butthole Surfers
Frank Zappa
Mission of Burma
Dinosaur Jr

Peeping Tom - S/T

Yesterday/this morning I dug:

Utada Hikaru
Samurai Champloo OST
Yura Yura Teikoku

Hooray for them crazy Japanese.

Thrice
Between the Buried and Me
Tool
...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead

Massive Attack - Blue Lines
Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - Broom

I've been getting into My Bloody Valentine, I just got Loveless, and I really like it.

Alice Donut rule.

The Pop Group - Y
Unwound - Repetition

If the world was a better place, everyone would know and love these bands.

[QUOTE=DogInTheSand]Mission of Burma - [I]The Obliterati[/I]

Indeed they do.

I'll have to pick up The Obliterati soon.
