Silver Jews - Tanglewood Numbers. They're playing at Roskilde so I thought I'd check them out. Pretty cool album

Blackalicious - The Craft

Brian Eno - Another Green World

This album is perfect.

[QUOTE=Sepstrup]Silver Jews - Tanglewood Numbers. They're playing at Roskilde so I thought I'd check them out. Pretty cool album[/QUOTE]

I've been wanting to get this album for ages. I've always imagined Silver Jews as similar to Two Gallants for some reason (another band I need to properly check out)

[QUOTE=Zebra]Brian Eno - Another Green World

Quoted for truth.

Just dug All Time Quarterback - [I]All Time Quarterback[/I] - Haven't listened to it in a while but it's still sweet.

Currently listening to The Shins - [I]Chutes Too Narrow[/I]. I don't think I like it as much as [I]Oh, Inverted World[/I].

Silver Jews are great, they don't really sound like Two Gallants though. There are vague similarities I guess.

Mission of Burma - The Obliterati
Jesus Lizard - Goat
Red House Painters - Down Colorful Hill
Red House Painters - Ocean Beach

Yay I get to listen to music at work.

I envy you so much. Where do you work/what do you work as?

I get to listen to music, but only what they play on the stupid loudspeaker, which is in annoying loop. There are a few songs which some on that I like, such as:

Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles (actually love this song)
The Coral - Pass it On
REM - The Great Beyond
Ozzy Osbourne - Dreamer
Sam Cooke - Don't Know Much About History
The Isley Brothers - Who's That Lady?

That's it I think.

We play music at work, but its a music store :-D

I just got back from Bonnaroo and now im going to listen to all the bands I just saw.

I'd love to work in a music store.

Who did you see at Bonnaroo?

Sparta - [I]Porcelain[/I]

This album is just excellent. Before listening to Sparta I was under the impression they were meant to be a really boring band, but this is really not like that at all.

Is [I]Porcelain [/I]a rare exciting album, or is all Sparta this good?

Pixies - [I]Doolittle[/I]
Pixies - [I]Surfer Rosa[/I]

I've finally come to the conclusion that [I]Surfer Rosa[/I] is the better of the two.

Truth.

Duh.

-Mr. Bungle - s/t and [i]California[/i]

Haven't given the 'Bungle a listen in a while, then I saw some videos and live stuff on Youtube. So a minor case of Bungle Fever hit.



-Gnarls Barkley - "Crazy"

Just that one song. The few others songs I have are nice, but I still haven't really dug them much. I dunno.




-Old Man Gloom - "Zozobra"

Posty-metal a bit on the too-repetitive side, but it was good for a background thang.




-The Fever - [i]In the City of Sleep[/i]

Definitely nowhere near a favorite of mine, but it's kinda neat.

[QUOTE=Interstate]I'd love to work in a music store.

Tons of bands but my favorite shows were Radiohead, Beck, and Sierra Leone Refugee Allstars.

The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Take It from the Man!

It's all right. I like most of the other stuff I've heard from them a little better.

Dave Dondero - The Transient
I've never really listened to this album despite like all his other stuff. I don't know why. It could be the best of the lot. Reminiscent of Ted Leo but more folky.

^^ That sounds worth a look.

[QUOTE=Zappa]Except "Angry Son" has the most trite, cliche'd guitar part ever. And the Slint vocals on top just make it a laughable recording all around. Other than that, I dig the bluesy samples and the emo explosions throughout.[/QUOTE]

That's the whole point of emo.

Laughable recordings.

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]^^ That sounds worth a look.[/QUOTE]
You should definitely check him out. He has some great stuff. As well as [i]The Transient, Shooting at the Sun With a Water Gun[/i] is very good and [i]South of the South[/i] and [i]Spider West Myshkin and a City Bus[/i] are perfectly good albums.

I might just check that out. Thanks joe.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - [I]Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus[/I]

I can't believe it took me this long to listen to this.

Yeah I love Lilys, actually got into them before BJM.

Rocket From the Crypt - [I]Scream, Dracula, Scream![/I]
The Jesus Lizard - [I]Goat[/I]


I'm not so sure about the Jesus Lizard but Rocket From the Crypt is mind-blowingly awsome. The use of the sax and trumpet is awsome.

A lot of people around these parts have been into those 2 bands lately. Curious.

Ya, I've been seeing their names a lot recently so I decided to get some stuff by both bands.

[b]Mischief Brew - [i]Songs From Under the Sink[/i][/b]
This album is just as good as Smash the Windows. Songs like All Our Comrades and Coffee, God and Cigarettes are among the best he's done. If you haven't heard him, it's excellent gypsy/swing/folk-punk reminiscent of The Pogues and Tom Waits.

[b]Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains - [i]All Power to the Wingnuts[/i][/b]
Great gutter-rock/folk-punk. I've been looking for this for ages and it doesn't dissapoint.
